On What I might be Cross-Examined

Being cross-examined and getting questions asked of me is something I am not to sure about. I have no clue what I might be cross-examined for. Though, I do think if I ever break a rule or a law, then I will be cross-examined.

Also if there is any doubt in someones mind that I know something and am not sharing it then I will be cross-examined. If a person knows something that will set another person free, cross-examination takes place. Many events can cause a person to have to be cross-examined, and I hope that I never have to be cross-examined for any reason that would be bad. As long as someone is being cross-examined for a good reason it is okay.

Actually, I may could get cross-examined on the amount of shoes I own. This is because I have an excess of shoes and I constantly want more.

The Bracelet

The bracelet with the gleaming rubber
on the wrist one will wear
to make all bad feelings go.
The hope the bracelet brings
wipes the pain of a thousand memories.
The sorrows of the day go away
with the bracelet.
The bracelet makes everything okay.

Celebration

Celebration has many reasons. There are many things we should celebrate. Life is one thing we should celebrate. Happiness and opportunities are other things we should celebrate, as well as, freedom.

We should celebrate life because without life we would not be doing what we are doing right now. We also would have no cause to celebrate if we did not have life.

We should celebrate happiness because with out happiness there would be nothing worth living for. To truelly live a full life one should live happily. Happiness is the best thing in the world to celebrate.

Opportunities should also be celebrated. Without opportunities we would not be able to get to do some of the things we get to do.

We should celebrate freedom. Men and women fight so that we can be free. We should celebrate freedom because without freedom there would be no cause to celebrate. Also without freedom we would have nothing and no reason to be able to celebrate or get happy.

Grade Scale Change (OC)

Grade scale change makes what is referred to as "What in previous decades would have been referred to as "a gentleman's C" is now barely enough to get passed on to the next grade" in some schools. Grade scale changes have many bad effects. I am going to write about the affect of the grade scale change in schools in comparison to schools where there is still no grade scale change. Also about the effect grade scale change has on both ends of the spectrum. Also, about the disadvantage the gradescale change has on students when applying for college.

First in schools where grade scale has changed the comparison with other students from schools who have yet to make the change is tricky. What would be considered a B in a school where grade scale change has not occurred could be considereda C in a school where grade scale change has occurred. This could make students who have average grades in school's where no grade scale change has occured barely pass in school's where it has.

Second grade scale change could effect students on both ends of the spectrum could be affected. In some school's a person needs a seventy-five to pass. This could cause average students to fail. Students who make ninetys and call them A's would no longer be able to do that.

Third grade scale change puts students at a disadvantage when applying for college. Most college grade on the ten point scale. When a college receives an application the college does not always know if the student had come from a grade scale changed school. A student who makes C's at one school may be just as good as a student who makes B's at another.

I wrote about comparison of student at grade scale change schools with other schools, can affect students on both ends of the spectrum, and puts students at a disadvantage when applying for college. Grade scale changes are not good.
