What I Have Learned

Being here in blogging has been a very good experience because it has taught me that a lot of children have been doing drugs and I would like to stop it. I hope that we have blogging again in the year 2009, start some broadcasting in the new year, and also for grade 8 to be more involved. Hopefully we will have more people in our blogging classes next year! What I have learned these past eight weeks is that millions of teens are doing drugs and getting in their parents medicine cabinets and taking their prescription drugs. I would like to change that teenagers that are doing drugs and that is what I have been working on for the good eight weeks I have been here and it is a wonderful after school program I look forward to coming next year. Blogging has helped me by teaching me that it is not good to do drugs.We have gone to the soup kitchen and that was a great experience we had cleaned dishes and served all the people some were homeless and some were just did not had the money to get food for their families.

The topic I chose for blogging is prescription drug abuse among teens. What I wanted to learn is how many people used it. I found out much more than that, like how many people used the drugs, who they got it from, and who told them about the prescription drugs. What I remember most is how many people used the prescription drug: 2.4 million teens used drugs in 2006.

But by joining the blogging class I learned how to do a lot of new things like learning how to blog and how to use a computer better. I got a chance to meet a person named Ami Dar who started idealist.org. He came from another country to the Unites States and made that program to help people in need. In blogging class I think we could do is get other schools in the area involved in blogging because it is fun, they will learn, and they could help people in need.
