Leaving for lunch
Faith Plummer June 5,2014
english period 2-3
Katie was just starting high school like any other typical teenager, and she heard that her school lets them go out for lunch. She was so excited because she would get a chance to hang out with her friends and learn responsibility of leaving and being able to come back on her own. Unlike John at a school like East Orange Campus it feels like a jail, he gets no freedom, he does not get a chance to show his level of responsibility so he acts like how he is being treated some thing like a prisoner or even an inmate. I think if we could leave for lunch we would be more focused and productive.
Students should be able to leave school for lunch because I think it gives the kids a time to relax and get their mind ready for the rest of the day. It seems to help students to get better grades in some states, because its like you have freedom unlike schools that do not it feels like jail and than the students begin to act like they really are in jail. I think will act different and get better grades if they are just able to get a taste of the real world and how it feels to be on a real time limit and if thy dont come back they will suffer the consequences as if they were on a job and they had to be back at a certain time.
Some students have certain allergies to different food products, so you never know what the person is able to eat and you dont know how bad the allergic reaction could be, it could be something so major to something so minor. Some schools let their students leave for lunch and some schools dont because of many consequences like kids not coming back, getting hit by a car, killed ext. You never know so they dont let them leave for lunch. And other schools let them leave school to let them get refreshed and unwinding from being in the class all day. it helps some kids focus on their school work work because they get to have free time and a chance to breathe and relax their mind. Thats why i think students should be able to leave school for lunch.

Vocab boot camp
Sometimes Alea is omnipotent and omniscient to everyone when she is trying to say her narrative and I'm being dishonorable, eccentric, and mockery to her and all she wants is some empathy.

MISSING YOU
Missing you is so hard to get by
I mean come on i just cant let it fly
All people do is tell these lies
We are left to do nothing but try
We may cry sometimes
But we have to remember the good times
Because missing you is to hard to get by
People may often act like a spy
But we cant focus on thy
To where i regret my mistakes in the sky
So we wouldnt look in the mist and die
When we looked into each others eye
Missing you is so hard to get by
I mean come on i just cant let it fly

He also did well at the box office that year with the crime caper Inside Man starring Clive Owen, Jodie Foster and Denzel Washington.His most recent feature film release, Miracle at St. Anna (2008), tells the story of four African-American soldiers trapped in an Italian village during World War II.
