Traditions
On New Years Eve me and my family throw this BIG party with all the food you could imagine. Then at midnight we go outside with all these party noise makers and try to wake people up yelling Happy New Year. one time we were living in Salt Lake and we were living in these apartments, well one time we actually did wake people up, we woke up one of my best friends and her family. It was really funny.
And on Christmas we try to go see the lights on Temple Square. They are so pretty. We especially try to go when they are turned on for the first time.
What are your holiday traditions? Happy Holidays

Shakespeare Assignment
Def: Control of government by a gang, often of violent criminals.
Can any good come of it?
Probably not. Because in the definition it tells you that the government is often owned by violent criminals and I don't think that is a very good thing. So no, No good could come of mob rule.

Shakespeare
In my opinion Brutus was not an honorable man because:
1. He killed his friend
2. He joined the conspiracy
3.When Brutus killed Caesar Caesar was appalled that one of his friends would do that to him
I don't know about you but I don't think that's very honorable.

Why America's Veterans should be Honored
We have so many freedoms in this country. I'm going to name a few: Freedom to choose who sets our laws, freedom to receive a good education, and freedom to worship how and where we choose.
Why do we have these freedoms?
We have men and women who have served in our armed forces. They have earned the title Veteran.
What is a veteran?
To me a veteran is someone who sacrifices their lives everyday for our freedom. A veteran is someone who leaves their families for months sometimes a year or more to stand up for what they believe in. A veteran is someone who does whatever it takes to protect and defend our way of life. A veteran is someone who distinguishes themselves by their willingness to risk their life for the freedoms we cherish. A veteran is selfless, putting country ahead of their own life. Veterans have seen things that you and I couldn't even imagine. The traumatic effects could last for several years. I know such a veteran. My grandfather served in the Vietnam War. I have been told stories of when my grandfather would wake up in cold sweats long after his service had ended. My grandfather came home with jungle rot, and was exposed to Agent Orange.
I have had great-grandfathers and uncles serve in other conflicts. They have starred danger in the face, but were courageous and served valiantly.
Many veterans have given the ultimate sacrifice for the country they love and believe in.
Where would this country be without people who are willing to put on the uniform and make the sacrifices that are necessary to insure that we maintain the freedoms that so many long to have? I for one am grateful for all that has been sacrificed by veterans on my behalf.
So you ask, why should America s Veterans be honored?
I say why shouldn't they be!
