Science Systems Essay: Letter to the Human Body Corperation

Dear Human Body Corporation:

Without me, the respiratory system (r.s.), you're in for trouble! One, you’ll lose the lungs which are super important-one of the main organs to breathe! You'll also lose the trachea, along with the rest of us sorry souls, okay organs. You might as well say "adios" to the nose if you fire the respiratory system. Oh, and, heads up, you need to breathe to live, and that's just what the r.s. does, so don't you think of firing me!

Take the lungs for instance, they're super important! They do all sorts of stuff, like for example; they inhale the oxygen that you breathe. Then they exhale the carbon dioxide (CO2) from your body. I bet you didn't even know that they also discard excess H2O! As you can see, losing the lungs will end up in big doo-doo!

There's also the trachea that's included in our little club and that is also very important! For one, it is the ultimate, super-important passageway from the mouth to the lungs! Being so, it carries the air to the lungs that the body needs to survive. And you're probably too stupid to know that the trachea is the 2nd tube located in your throat! Without the ultimate, super-important trachea, the air won't have anywhere to go!

You know the nose; yeah well it's not going to be able to smell anymore thanks to you! Just because it looks weird and can sometimes be too small, or way too enlarged, doesn't mean it's not important! The nose, as you may know, holds the nostrils, the weird little holes that hold nose-hairs, boogers, and junk, Those nostrils also, like the mouth, bring in air and carry it to the trachea, then on to the lungs. So yeah, the nose is just as important as the mouth, it can breathe too! The nose also enables you to smell all the wonderful stuff on this planet, like your favorite fried chicken, or that delicious chocolate cake that was baking last week! Yeah, we all know, that cake smelled delicious! Lose the nose, you won't be able to smell and you'll look like a big weirdo!

You need your nose, lungs, and trachea to breath, and to live! What are you supposed to do without the lungs? You'll just sit there not breathing! And you can't get rid of the airway, you just can't! Without the nose, well, you can't just use your mouth to breath. So unless you want to look like a nose-less, lung-less, trachea-less, freak, then you can fire me. If you don't, I suggest you don't fire me and get on with your life!

Sincerely,
The ungrateful Respiratory System

No Free Laptops At BMS

Although having your own laptop would be cool, it is unnecessary. If each student was given a laptop, they could break them. Most would go on bad sites, causing viruses. Buying 300+ laptops would be really expensive too. Don't give students the laptops unless you want this to happen.

If we were to get a free laptop, it could be broken very easily. The kids don't always use the computers correctly. Most electronics (like ipods, phones, etc.) owned by teenagers, could be dropped and damaged. We could also not remember it when going other places, like going to a cafe, or park, and leave it to be ruined or to get stolen. With these examples it would be easy enough to agree to the fact that laptops are vulnerable to damage and loss.

A high majority of the students have a Facebook, Myspace, or go on some other site. Many of these may not be protected, causing viruses. As we all know viruses are bad. They can dump all your personal information, like essays you haven't turned in yet, special information, etc. Viruses also cause the Internet to go insanely slow. Viruses are bad and they will wreck the computer.

What are there, 300+ kids in this school!? That would be thousands of dollars to buy all of the laptops. It's so much money that the kids would have to pay a fee to rent the laptops, and not everybody can afford it. All of the school's money can't go toward just buying the laptops, we would need to fund raise a lot, and it's just too much. Laptops are just too expensive.

I'm sure you can agree now, many things could go wrong with buying these laptops. Laptops are very breakable. There's not protection for all the bad sites. Also, they're too expensive. Laptops at BMS are uneeded and unecessary, don't encourage this unwanted necessity.

Vampire Kisses, by Ellen Schreiber,

is a book about a teenage goth girl named Raven. She wears black everything, loves scary movies, and is obsessed with vampires. All her life Raven has lived in a town she calls Dulls-ville, for being so dull. Up the hill, at the very top, from her house, is an abandoned mansion with the story of it being haunted. Almost one-hundred years the house has been abandoned until one day a new family moves in. They turn out to be descendants of the old house's owner. They are rich, have a butler, only go outside at night, and have a goth son, the same age as Raven.

One of the main themes in this story is the ability to keep a secret, secrecy. Raven ends up snooping around the new house with its new residents. She ends up getting caught by the butler and bolts out the door. She then ends up meeting the teenager boy. His name turns out to be Alexander! She instantly falls into a trance with his deep dark eyes and his wearing of black combat boots. He asks her for her to come over for a nice dinner. He eats a raw, very bloody, steak. While she has more edible food. Then she figures it out... he, and the rest of his family are vampires.

I wouldn't recommend this book for any of you who have read the Twilight saga, and are used to the non fairytale characteristics of it. Unlike Twilight, in this book garlic is a poison to vampires, mirrors can't catch the reflection of one, and the sunlight is so painful they cannot come out during the day. Only if you're into that kind of stuff, goth, garlic, and goth love, then would I actually recommend this book to you. Realize that I am not saying it is a bad book but it's different than what I am used to. However it is a good book if you like old fashion vampires.

Safaya - The Best Chef There Ever Was!

When I grow up I think I'd make a great chef. One of my favorite things to do is bake/cook for friends and family. I even have some experience at preparing/making food. I'm really good at cooking with other people (except Celia), or by myself. I love to make desserts and they taste good too! I also enjoy cooking, it gives me something to do and its fun to make food, therefore I will be the best chef that ever was

Preparing food with other people has always come naturally to me. There was that time when I was 9 and I made cookies from scratch and they tasted pretty good. I'm always wanting to bake with other people if they're getting ready to bake. Whenever I have enough ingredients, a helpful friend, and a good recipie, then I bake something. Being able to make a complicated dish with friends or by myself is the first step along the path to becoming a proffesional chef.

Making desserts is another thing I really enjoy. It's so exciting to mix all the flavors and ingredients together and then be able to smell it cooking in the oven. When I'm making desserts I feel like people are depending on me to satisfy their taste buds. I am to cooking as bees are to honey. Being able to make desserts and other dishes for the rest of my life would be and enjoyable and exciting accomplishment.

Enjoying making food for other people takes special talent and it's fun. I gained a lot of experience at being able to enjoy it by preparing breakfast and lunch for other people on demand. I learned a lot about the preperation and techniques of making food. For example, I used to bake almost 24/7 with my grandmother, from dessert dirt to apple pie. The time I spent with my grandmother baking, is sure to give me an advantage when it comes to becoming a professional chef.

The three most important ingredients to becoming a professional chef are being able to cook with others or myself succesfully, liking to make certain foods, and enjoying it, and i've got them all! I want to become the best professional chef ever. I'm never so happy as when I'm in the midst of making food. It's like my grandma said, "One day you're going to love to cook and it will be easy." When I cook, I am at peace, and that's why I'll be the best chef there ever was!
