Dear Google,

I have been a satisfied user of blogger for over a year and a half now. Blogger has helped me with a lot of Academic work as well as projects, or anything media based. Blogger many options, designs, and settings have been helpful and have made it alot easier to format the work I post up on my blog.

Although, we have had some problems recently with how we type out documents and some posts that go up. Every time i'm assigned a project that involves blogger, it has appeared to me that typing a document through blogger doesnt give auto correct spelling, grammar checks, and doesnt capitalize letters when needed. Each time I type out a certain essay, or any document of some kind, I would always have to manually capitalize my letters, check my grammar, and spelling.  I understand that these are small things that shouldnt matter, but many people are accustomed nowadays with all these small specs, and I believe that updating the way we type with these specs, will improve the way blogger works.

In addition, whenever my project involves pictures, after a certain amount of time, they also tend to "dissapear" and they are deleted from the post. I understand that atleast one or two of them would issapear due to any errors it may have from it being uploaded, but there hasnt been one time where this hasnt happened.

Through all of this, all of my fellow classmates have experienced the same thing and are sometimes forced to copy and paste their documents from another program such as Microsoft Word so that they could be able to check their grammar and spelling there. I think that its a hassle to be constanly switching out documents, copying, and pasting from Word, to Blogger.

I believe that blogger is a great way to share certain posts and documents, but I fell that you should create a better way for people to type out their documents with adding more specs to create a much more easier way for people to type.

Sincerely,

Leo Christian Dela Cruz

            Drugs are either Legal, or illegal; Legal drugs have a purpose such as curing diseases, as for illegal drugs causing harm to the body. Legal drugs aren’t good just because they’re not illegal, it still could cause harm to teens when misused.

            Legal Drugs such as prescribed medicine, that your physician assigns you, are for a specific person, on a certain case or sickness. Prescribed medicine is used to cure diseases, or to ease the pain of an injury, such as Oxytocin that is used as a painkiller. When recommended by a doctor, prescription drugs can be beneficial; but when taken without a prescription or as not directed, they can be dangerous and addictive.

            Prescribed medicine is used to cure sicknesses and relieve pain from injuries, although, when used incorrectly, such as taking a high dosage, or combined with alcohol or other drugs, many prescription drugs can also become deadly. There have been many cases where teens create a “skittle party” where they mix up a bunch of prescribed drugs, and randomly select some of them and take it. Also, teens tend to misuse these types of drugs, such as oxytocin, which is used as painkillers, but are used for the side effects which causes constipation and drowsiness.

            A lot of teens abuse these legal drugs for the wrong reason. An Average of 2000 teenagers use prescribed medicine without a doctors guidance. Prescribed and over the counter drugs are among the most commonly abused drugs by 12^th graders, after alcohol, marijuana, and tobacco. Prescribed medicine when over used or used incorrectly can cause major side effects that can be harmful to the body, however, it is still used to cure sicknesses or relieved injures. When it comes to drugs, don’t take more than you can handle, or don’t take something you don’t know anything about.

College Essay: University of North Carolina Wilmington

            Since a very young age, it was always fascinating about what lurked in the Ocean. “What lies in the big vast ocean?” being a little child, questions kept brewing up in my mind, wondering about all the interesting new things that had hoped to be discovered, I was pulled into a state of wonder. Although, there were many things that I had yet to learn, as I entered into school, I had many different subjects although marine science was not one of them, I had eventually forgot about it. As time passed by, learning new things, it had finally hit me, that feeling of wonder, finally being able to learn a little more about the ocean it felt a little satisfying, although there was a lot more to learn.

            Finally being able to learn more about the ocean, school was not the only place to learn, watching the TV it had always been the Discovery channel on the ocean or certain types of Fish etc. Learning about the marine life had me focused, and I’m normally not focused a lot or really talkative, but just being able to know more about this subject tends to keep me calm. One day, my dream is to explore an abyss and be able to discover new things.

            Living in Hawaii, I have been surrounded by the ocean throughout my whole life, it feels as if the ocean has been there for me in a way that is has been apart of my home as well as my life. Being able to attend the University of North Carolina Wilmington, I believe that this University would give me one giant step to fulfilling my dream. Marine Biology is the only subject that gives me motivation to do anything, being able to learn more about it will give me a big advantage on a dream that I so hope to fulfill.
