Poverty

Poverty is obviously a horrible thing. Sometimes we have to take the time and think about how fortunate we are to have the education that we get. Poverty is an economic condition that is defined as having enough money and every day necessities that people need to live. A major thing that is deprived from children around the world is their education. The problem is that they can not afford to go to school or build one. This is because they live on a minuscule amount of money in one day. Here are just a few countries with the percentage of people that live on 1$ or 2$ a day:

Zimbabwe 83.0%
Zambia 87.2%
Rwanda 87.8%

It would be nice to think that every thing in the world is perfect but when you open up your eyes you see many things that are devastating. Hopefully one day we can make a difference and help those people that are less fortunate than us.

 

 

Blog Action Day

Home Sweet Home

I live in the sunny state of Florida. The weather in Florida is mostly made up of sun and rain. If you lived in a place where it snows during the winter and compare it to our weather during the winter ours would be warm in comparison. We do experience hurricanes during a certain time of year. Many have left some bad damage but you have to expect it when you live here! In Florida there are many fun things to do. There are a lot of fun attractions. Two major attractions are Rapids Waterpark and Disney. When I stop and think about it I am surprised at how I possibly get bored on the weekends with all this stuff to do around me! My typical day starts of with getting up at 6:30am to get ready for school. After breakfast I take the bus to school and go through the day as usual. I have six periods of classes. Each day we take the same classes at the same time unlike some schools I know. Later I go home and start my homework. That is my typical day. Not including extracurricular activities. Well, that’s about it! It does not seem like a very eventful life although there is always something going on that makes everyday interesting.

My Avatar

Many people would wonder why I designed my avatar the way I did. I know that I wonder about other people’s avatar. First I chose the background because I love waterfalls and the forest. It is amazing to me how many animals there are! Although there were many that were competing with the background I chose I guess this one grabbed my attention more. When I was going through the wardrobe and I saw this shirt I was surprised because I have a shirt almost exactly like it. I certainly hope this shows you a little more about me.

My Theme Choice

When I saw this theme I was sure it was the one I wanted. The theme is very relaxing and although I am not a person that enjoys doing nothing, when I have time to relax I take the opportunity. I love this theme because I love nature and the trees, leaves, and bridge are beautiful!
