High School
High school can be a very stressful environment. For the students coming in as freshman, its a place to begin their last four years of their teenage lives. For the seniors its their last year to learn as much as you can about life and how to make it successful. If I were to give advice to some students it would be to live up every moment because you don't want to live your life with regrets when your older. Make good friends that you can trust and keep them close to you. High school can be full of drama and you can't let that get to you. If you take things to serious in life your never going to make it out so don't take things to heart. Everyone starts off here with a fresh start so make the best of it and enjoy your last few years at this school.

Facebook is an interent social site that almost everyone in the world uses. The site was created by Mark Zuckerburg while he was in college. The original purpose was to be a database for which the college students could create their own page and be viewed by the other students in the college. Zuckerburg then had the idea to bring together all the databases on to one site and he named it Facebook. This site was a hit and is now worth $6.5 billion dollars. Thanks to Mark Zuckerburg and his staff we all have a new way to stay connected with friends and family.

The Presidents of The United States
This band formed in Seattle, Washington in 1993. The group consists of only three members a vocalist, a basitarist, and a drummer this band released six albums before they broke up 11 years later in 2004. Later that year they reformed and they've released a few more albums. In October 2008, some of they're songs have been featured on Rock Band 2 a video game where you control the guitar, vocals, bass, or drums of your favorite songs. One of the well known songs is "Lump" which was created in 2008 before the release of the game. One of my favoite songs by these musicians is "Peaches" you should listen to it i bet you'd like it too.

Problem Gambling
Problem gambling is often defined by whether harm is experienced by the gambler or others, rather than by the gambler's behavior. Problem gambling may be diagnosed as clinical pathological gambling if the gambler meets the correct criteria. Pathological gambling is considered to be an impulse control disorder and is therefore not considered to be an addiction. Gambling can ruin peoples lives. Some people gamble money that they don't have thinking they will win big and will be able to pay it back but it never quite works like that. People take out loans to bet with and then they end up digging themselves deeper in debt. Most gamblers are people in debt looking for a fast break and a quick way out of their problems.
