Blog 32
For my 32nd blog I have to research one or more of the following subjects: Illegal immigrants, sports, school, social strife, mental toughness, physical toughness, money, parents, good work ethics. I am not sure which one I could find legitimate research for. I will research the concept of money. According to wikipedia, money is “any object or record, that is generally accepted as payment for goods and services and repayment of debts in a given country or socio-economic context.” Money affects people in virtually every aspect of their lives, directly or indirectly. Money dictates many social niches, because if you can look nice because of what you buy, you can be perceived by society as “cool” or “dope”. A work ethic is a highly endowed virtue that is very important to the development of a person. According to wikipedia, work ethic is “a set of values based on hard work and diligence. It is also a belief in the moral benefit of work and its ability to enhance character.” I believe a good work ethic is one of the most important values a person can learn. Nothing can be accomplished without a good work ethic. Sports play a huge part in my life. Much of my time is spent either watching, playing, or discussing sports. They were a big part of my high school career and taught me that hard work pays off. School is a huge part of the development of people as well. We all grow up going to school.
All good subjects to look at . Sometimes it's hard to focus in on one thing with so many issues. Immigration is an interesting subject, but they all are.
ReplyDeleteI think all of these topics would be good to write about. But I was thinking that since you like sports and one of your topics was money, you could write about the controversy of paying college athletes illegally. But I am sure you have already decided about a topic, but it could be a good option if you decide to change your mind.
