Daily Update from Your Subscriptions! Date: Tuesday, May 25, 2010 Username: ira27snider | High School Marriages I'm graduating this year. By the time you're a senior, you realize the idea of eternal high school relationships and childhood love is something mostly reserved for the movies. I know one or two couples that have been together since forever. The first couple has dated since the summer before freshmen year and the other couple got together freshmen year. The rest of the kids that promised each other forever, that exchanged notes saying they were soulmates, and quoted romantic lyrics to each other now are with someone else. As I'm nearing graduation, however, I'm noticing quite a few of my classmates are getting married.They have rings. They're moving in with each other. They've got apartments picked out and are talking about the children they intend on having. Everyone dreams about the time they'll be with someone at some point. I just think that fresh out of high school is too soon to be thinking along those lines. I mean it's a time when most are figuring out who they are, what they want to do, and where they'll be heading. There's so many things that are left to enjoy in the last of your youth that you'll have to miss out on. Some might be emotionally and mentally ready to commit themselves like that - to sort their lives out that young - but I think a lot of them don't know what they're facing until it's too late.
How do you know at that age if the person you're dating then is what you'll want later? More Here... Posted 5/25/2010 at 1:50 PM - add eprops - add comments
I Have The Perfect Body. I Have a Perfect Mind. I Never Get Sick. I'm Just Perfect. Genetic engineering. It seems a little scary if you ask me. Movies like Gattaca, The Island, and I-Robot always make me wonder just how far off this technology is. Not too long ago, the plots in these thought-provoking movies seemed far-fetched. Now it seems like they could actually happen in today’s world. Remember it was only 1997 when Dolly, the first sheep cloned from an adult somatic cell, made a big splash on the international scene. Fast forward to 2010, to date, there is not a cloned human in existence (that we know about). Regardless, we’ve made some major progress when it comes to understanding DNA and manipulating an organism’s genes. Have we made too much progress? More Here...
