Comparing Justice to Injustice

I am going to do what the name of this blog is compare Injustice to justice first of all the word injustice means violation of the rights of others; unjust or unfair action or treatment. And the word justice means the quality of being just; righteousness, equitableness, or moral rightness: to up hold the justice of a cause. I am going to give some examples of justice and injustice: An example of injustice would be someone being accused of murder and being sentenced to prison for 20 years, then finally being let out because they finally found proper evidence that he didn’t murder any one and that he was falsely accused, which really sucks and half of the person’s life was token away for some one else’s crime. And an example of justice is a poor wife and daughter being abused by an alcoholic husband who threatens to hurt them if they try to leave, and wining a battle in court for her daughter’s happiness. The main difference between these two examples would be that with injustice it’s unfair and usually an innocent person is accused of a crime they didn’t do and justice is someone innocent putting away someone who hurts people and themselves. In my life I have never really had any injustice happen to me the worst thing would be reputation or something like that.

Reflection on school year so far

In my opinion from what I know of, not much things have changed since my September blog about the difference between junior high and senior high. In my classes I think I am sort of close to my class expectations but a little shaky on the edges, but I always try to get my work done as well as I can. I am basically meeting my goals this year so far and my way to achieve this goal is to hand in all of my work and study and just try my best. But the only goals I am not achieving would be to participate more and be more of a help to others, like in group work. For this semester my schedule was English, Dance, It, lunch, Gym, Social, and Art, nine very long periods of pure brain. Our first semester is two junior high semesters so for my main courses we have two periods. And for my next semester I have Math, Calm, Science, Home ec, Gym also a very busy schedule. I think next semester might be a bit harder because math and science are my worst subjects and also there is a lot more writing and stuff done in these classes.

The hobbit project

For my important project on the book The Hobbit I chose to make a poster my plan is to type up information and get a whole bunch of awesome photos and organize it in a more sort of collage way but with information on top of the photos in a layered formation. The question I chose to do this amazing project on is do you think that there is someone/something else that controls our actions? With me I’m not really sure that I believe in god or something like that but I do believe in destiny and things happening for a reason. I think from the book The Hobbit that out of everyone Gandalf would be the one controlling destiny but I only think he gives destiny a push because its Bilbo’s destiny to go on this journey searching for the treasure and to find the ring, without the ring things might have happened differently. Like when they get split up in Misty Mountain Bilbo probably wouldn’t have been able to get past the guards. And with the spiders they probably would have done the same thing to Bilbo that they did to the dwarves. And all of this leads to a bigger destiny then just finding treasure, and that is the main outline of my Hobbit project.

War

In our current world I don't know much about war other than just watching news about troops being in Afghanistan for long time and are away from their families who are probably hoping for the best to come and for war to stop. I haven’t really learnt about war much but in the past our two most eventful wars are World War 1 and World War 2. The World War 1 conflict lasted from 1914 to 1919 no other wars had involved so many soldiers and was also one of the bloodiest wars to happen. And the Second World War lasted from 1939 to 1945 it was six long bloody years. If Canada was involved in war my life would change for the fact that my family member would have a chance of being sent into war and anything could happen. The closest I’ve met someone involved in war would be my mom’s friend who son was sent into the Afghanistan war over seas. And he was to stay there for a long time but I don’t remember how long but months over months of war and peacekeeping. War is very romanticized in our daily lives we don’t even know what’s going on in this world unless we watch news which most teenagers and down don’t really care for news. Everyday there are troops fighting to keep peace and tranquility yet we don’t acknowledge the fact that they are fighting for world peace and when they come back home they should come home to a proud community yet we don’t pay attention to what’s going on in this world so we are very romanticized in our country.

Are Sports Overrated?

In my opinion sports can be overrated but not all the time. Also sports are healthy and give you lots of exercise and keep you very energized. For some people they have to take sports seriously because it might be their career or they are competing in a competition like the Olympics. But with sports some people are really competitive and always get angry over like someone accidentally hitting them or something like that or when they think the referee made a false call, or some people are just cheap and think they are the best. In sports there are lots of mixed emotions toward others and they always end up fighting. They get angry from their schedules getting changed and by this I mean move games to different days due to something coming up or something like that. Personally I do think sports are overrated depending on who’s playing and how they play or act during and before and after sports. But probably a high amount of people in our country love watching sports so I believe it can be overrated. I think the Olympics can be overrated on its own but it’s a good opportunity for people to compete. And that’s my opinion on sports being overrated.
