To Be or Not to Be? is that really the question? hehe Prompt---7

I think the phrase " apple of her eye" means that, if you are the apple of someone's eye you are truly cared about by that person. For example if you are the apple of my eye you are someone that i cherish more then anyone else.

To me the phrase wear my heart on my sleeve means that you don't keep anything secret or hidden. You let all your feelings show for the whole world to see and keep nothing back.

No Comprendo Espanol!---Prompt 6

So i had already taken a year of Spanish at my old school when i was a freshmen, and it was such a breeze for me. Not having taken any Spanish since then i thought that i might have a little trouble getting back into the whole thing but i still thought that i could step into it with confidence and i would do okay!
The first day of class i had my confident attitude that everything was going to be cool, then we actually got started and everything the teacher said was in Spanish and i was so confused i couldn't understand a lick of what the teacher was trying to say it was all foreign to me, then i started to get concerned, because i had heard from students that took this class previously, about how hard it was and about the very disappointing grades they had to take home to their parents.
As the class drowned on i dreaded every minute of it, because i could hardly understand what Ms. Santana was saying, and then she would just happen to ask me a question and usually i could get away with a "Si" and a nodding of the head. Other times it wouldn't work out as i had planned.
Now it is about the fifth week of school and i am kind of gettinf the hang of this whole spanish class bit...i think. All you have to do is look really interested and when she asks you a question say, yes, in spanish and make sure you right all the homework down and maybe if your lucky at the end of the quarter you'll end up with a "C"

Are you part of a Microtrend?--Prompt 5

Microtrends are little trends that only effect a small part of America's population. I think microtrends like knitters under 30 and high earners are growing in America because some people have so much money and they dont know what to spend it on and other people may just be looking for a way to express themselves. i think that Hillary Clinton hired Penn for her campaign becuase he could help her come up with good marketing ideas that would appeal to everyone. I think that the effacts of "free society" have a poor impact on American culture becuase when it comes to gay rights, the morals of people in American have been lowered to the point where 88 percent of the people think that gays should have equal rights in the work place. Yes i do think that Penn's book was published to help increase the votes of Clinton, because it would shoe her so called intrest in the people of America. Lastly as a student of Weimar Academy I do not have any Micritrends to cite.

If You are illegal You're a Criminal! Prompt 2

My personal opinion on illegal immigration and how it effects the economy and society is that there are so many illegal immigrants in America, not that they are bad but having illegal immigrants in our country hurts American tax paying citizens economically because when the immigrants get hurt or something happens to them, they can go to the emergency room and get help but they don't have to pay for it because they don't have insurance and the people in America that pay taxes are the ones that end up paying for all the things like that. Also if an illegal immigrant got in trouble and ended up having to go to jail, the people that pay taxes are paying for that too, because when you are in jail you get free medical, dental, food, and anything else you need! Another thing that i think is a problem when illegal immigrants come to the United States is that when and if they get jobs, they are taking jobs that American citizens could have.
I think that is okay to send the immigrants back to where they came from because if they stay here in the United States they keep using money that is not theirs, thus they are lowering our economy
I agree with the stance of President Felipe Calderon when he is says that by sending the immigrants back we are separating their families because we are, but i still think that we should send them back because our economy is dropping but by having them here our economy willing drop even faster!
In conclusion i don't care if mexicans come over to this country as long as they do it legally!
