growing up

Growing up can be fun, but it can also be very painful. There are allot of thing's that I have learned as a child, a teen and a young adult. When I was a kid i had fun, made friends and was learning as much as I could. My family was very important to me, my father left when I was two years old, i have learned allot from him. Allot of people don't see how you can learn from some one if they weren't there. And that is my point, I learned to be there for some one and if I were to have a family I would want to be apart of it. Me and my sister never really got along when I was little, but i was a kid and probablly got on her nervs. Me and my sister get along, now that we are both some what mature. School has to be my favorite memory, only because i have learned things even though i can be hard headed at times. I have made many friends and lost many friends, but all was an expreiance i will never forget. The hardest time of my life was when i was in school, my 8th and 9th grade year. In 8th grade my great grandmother and my grandmother died in the same month. My oldest brother died in the army, during the summer (R.I.P KJ) he was my step brother but i knew him since i was a child and he was family. My youngest brother passed away in hatch germany, me and him where walking home from school and we were shot at in a drive by. Then me and my sister mooved to the united states and i have lived here ever since. So there alot of things that has happend in my life in not too much of time. But life goes on and lessons are learned, the quote of my life: by kieko johnson "there is no such thing as some one being a failure, just choices waiting to be made". In a way, I made myself grow up, because my family was never there to help me.

boston tea party

When I read this I thought to myself that the revolutionary era was very tense. I didnt like the fact that the british where doing things behind there back without knowing.the boston tea party showed me that they where mad about what theBritish where doing.What surprised me most was the bravery of all the people and how they rebelled. Especially rebelling knowing that they would have been killed if caught. I also thought it was cool how they had like two different lives, when they would come home they wouldnt talk about it.

would i join the revolutionary

yes i would join a revolutionary, because if the government was not doing what they claimed to do than i would rebel against what they where doing, i would stand up for my rights and my freedom. the reason why i would join is because i wouldn't whant to be taxed for something that i had nothing to do with, for example the stamp act i would not want to be taxed for a war that i had no part in. I also don't believe in paying debt that is not mine, The british can pay for there own war and debt. So my answer is still the same i would join a revolution to stand up for myself and other's for a reason that is worth it.
