About discipline

I notice somthing at the multiculture faire this morning. I was standing on the line to get inside for the food. One girl came passed in front of a guy, and the guy told her to go back . She started to say bad words,and the guy said to her, you should asked for permision. To me the guy was right about that, It is about time for people to know how to disciplene themself. She doesn't have no reason to say bad words like that. everybody were waiting to get inside,also the police man was in front of the door. It is the same thing when you get in the bosses, they have some seats for the aldely people only.Some time the eldely came no body apid attention to move,and let them seat down.In the pass people were more care about old age not anymore. I know every body have their one education about old age,but in some situation you have to respect discipline and old age. to finish about the faire the food was good even the music. I have the change to meet one of my old class-mates, also to see to on my present class- mates were selected.That was fun to see so many student from defferent culture.

This afternoon after school on my way going home, just after i turned under the light on Hempstead a police man stopped me. I was on the phone talking to my brother in florida.The funny thing was, the police stopped me for using the thelephonewhile himself was talking .He gave me a tiket for $ 30.00. My point is some time people tell you don't do something, at the same time tha person keep doing the same thing worse than you do. To evreryone who likes to give people advice try hard not to make that mistake. I know we all some time make that mistake.Let me give a jook about the same topic. there was couple who had two children,the father always tells his son don't eat fish because fish is no good . On day the son asked him if he eat fish his answer was know never my son he said to him. His wife never cook fish in the house,but when he want to eat fish he went to his friend house.On evening he went to his friend house started to eat a big fry fish, i can imagine the way he was enjoy it. the man forget about what he said to his children a fish born stock on his throat.when his friend called his family to tell them no body wanted to believe. the man was embarased in front of his chikdren.

Education
When I came to this country I didn't think about going to school. the reason why I say the language is to hard. the only think I did worked just to take car my family in Haiti and my oldest son. When I started going to school at nasseau after the fist six weeks, I was going to quit.Because of family problems. When I realized nothing like education,no matter how old you are.On of my friends who been in this country more than 20 years ,she never go to any school. She does speak english , is not only to speak you have to be able to write very well. My advice to averyone when you have education is forever,also dont let no body discourage you.I can take my self as an exemple I don't say I am a good writer but comper to two years ago and now.In life is not everything it easy ,my prents have seven kids he used to tell us When you want something or do something , don't say you can't do it just try. fathermore,he said do not look at the mountain are high it is, put you foot at the fisrt step than you get up. that me I start and I will continue until I finish . I hope every one in the class as that possitive thought.

Some country parents not allowed their children to move from the house even the marry.In my country children can stay in their parents house until the want they support them too.One of my brothers was 34 years old when is married to his fiance, my parents let them stayed in the house until they had money to buy their house. My first year in country, i was choked my next door neighbor had a sixteen years old son , one day she asked him when he is going to move from her house I was shocked is for Haitians people a sixteen years old boy to us Hi's a baby.I understand sometime the children can make their parents upset,but we have to try to give them more attention. I hope every parent instead to ask the children to move out try to talk to them and give love and good advice

About life
Life is getting harder and harder every day. If you loock at the price of the gasoline, people don't know what to do. the transportation is now 50cent more than before, what is funy the rate of the jobs stay the same. I have somebody that i know she used to go every saturday ,to visite her family in Road Island. she can't do the same thing anymore,because of the expensive life,the subrways and the briges are to expensve. People prefer to stay home instead of going away. If i want to talk about rent and food I don't think I will finish. If someone is trying to buy an house that person should have more than $35000.00.I read in a magazine about houses and taxes, there are a big different from two years ago and now. Some people have to sale their houses to move to an appartement, or move to an other state like florida, Giorgia. To me it not only in New-york it's everyware. I hope that our President will do something about that,if he does do something I think we will have a better life.
