    Should screen time be limited for students, or not? Some people say that screen time is good for us since it can relieves stress.  Others, including me, say that screen time should be limited as it is bad for us. Here are three reasons why, excessive screen time ruins our health, destroys our mental health, and lowers our spirit.       Kids spend majority of their time playing video games. This damages the lenses in their eyes. Soon, they lose their ability to see things far away. Thus having to wear thick glasses. For example: My parents never played video games when they were young. They don't have glasses. My little brother plays lots of video games. Now, he has glasses. Next, video games make kids sit around all day. This makes kids obese. Unfortunately about 30.5% of Californian students are obese. A major contributor of this are video games.       Video games are very entertaining. Addicting games such as: Minecraft, flappy...

President John F Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, on November 22, 1963, while riding in the presidential motorcade. Accused of committing the John F Kennedy assassination was Harvey Lee Oswald, although multiple conspiracy theories are still in existence regarding who was behind Oswald's plan.

      Did you get enough time during your winter break to do all your favorite activities? I certainly did not! I planned to do activities like play video games, hangout with my friends at the park, and to visit Great America. Unfortunately, majority of my time was spent with my family, thus I was unable to accomplish my plan. Neither were my friends able to do the same.

Bike Accident!      I love biking. I, especially, enjoy the thrill of high speed, the fast moving landscape, and the breath of wind pouncing against my face. I can breathe the fresh outdoor air. Yet, there are times when this passion can cause pain, like when I crashed. It really hurt ??.  Here is one time of when this happened.      I was on my way to the park with my dad. I saw the beautiful landscape. The trees were green. The bushes were rustling. I was biking down the road at extreme speeds, leaving my dad behind in the dust. I was going so fast, almost everything looked like a blur! Then I saw a big ditch on the side of the road. I thought that maybe I could do a stunt jump in the ditch.  So I decided to go inside of it.          I felt like superman flying down from the moon, except on a bike. I was having so much fun I didn't see this ramp-ish like rock that was in my way. CRASH! I had flown about 2 fee...
