Shawn
A weird moment in my life would be when Shawn farted 2 seconds ago. It was very weird and disturbing! Shawn needs to keep his farting under control. I thought it was going to be very bad but it wasn't too bad. But then he did it again, and it was more disturbing the second time. I hope shawn can keep his farting under control next time.

ONLINE GRADUATING
Are online classes better for students than classes at school? Students from Memphis ,TN must learn online to graduate. City schools there offer online classes for credit to high school and middle school. But is this really better than being in a regular school?
Some of the positives of online classes are you can take courses to graduate early. It is less expensive to offer online courses, you do not have building expenses. You can serve 150 in 12 schools rather than 30 in one class. Students can do all course work and exams at home.
If you are considering furthering your education but are not sure that you have the time to do so, consider online masters degree programs. These programs allow you to gain a degree without interfering with your job or your hectic schedule. They not only provide you with a degree but they give you numerous skills that will help you advance in your career. A masters degree can make you have the potential to make more money in your field.
Negatives of online courses are there is no social aspect. You would miss being with your peers, group activities and school functions. Teachers would not be as available as they are if you were at regular school. Some online courses are done after the regular school day so evenings would be spent on the computer and days would be long.
In my opinion regular school is better. I think this because of the social aspect. I would miss socializing with my friends. If I had a choice it would be to go to regular school. So is online graduating really better than regular school? In the end it's really a personal choice.

Speak
All of this could have been avoided by not going to Kyle Rodgers party. Melinda was underage and decided to make a stupid decision and get really drunk. Therefore, she was sexually abused by a senior, Andy Evans. Melinda could have changed her situation if she had just told someone what happened.
Melinda should have told her friends. She could have told them because they would have listened to her and maybe would have understood why she called the police and would maybe still of been her friend. But instead she kept it a secret and for example she could have told Rachel when they were alone in the bathroom but instead she just kept her mouth shut and if you don’t tell anyone then you might regret it later. Melinda also could have told her parents because that’s one of the first things I probably would of done out of everyone. Her mother asks her what’s wrong and she says nothing. She could have also told Mr. Freeman. That would have been a very weird conversation though. Mr. Freeman wants to listen to her and talk to her about things. In all of these she said nothing. In all she kept it a secret until she told Rachel and she didn’t believe her because at the time Andy Evans was her boyfriend.
Melinda could have changed her situation if she had just told someone what happened. She would have had friends and wouldn’t have the bad life that she’s been having if she would have just told someone about what happened.

“The Body in Henrys house” is mostly irony because right in the 3rd sentence Henry talks about how there is a body in his house. People that are dead inside a home don’t usually turn out in a good way.
This story makes me think Irony because it just tells you there’s a body. It doesn’t tell you how or why. That’s pretty ironic. Also when Henry drops the body and stick residue is all over the floor, Lydia has to clean it up . Lydia also must clean up the dried remnants of organs and tissue that fell all over the floor. I personally think he should be cleaning up that mess just because it was his body like his responsibility. Not hers. Also I’m very surprised that Lydia didn’t freak out or leave him when he said he had a dead body in his home. Maybe they fell in love too hard? Who knows. But for all we know Henry could of possibly murdered someone or done something very bad.
A dead person inside someone’s home is never a good thing. Sometimes people keep bodies inside their home because they’ve killed someone and don’t want to get blamed for it or go to jail. But usually they end up going to jail anways.
