Radio
It really bothers me when i turn on the radio and the DJ introduces a song as "new music" and i have all ready heard the song months ago. People that are not into music like i am do not realize how many good songs there are out there that are not on the radio yet. I hate when I'm in the car with people and they sit there and tell me that the "new" song on the radio is so good and that its the first time they have heard it when i have all ready heard it and I'm all ready tired of it by the time it goes on the radio. The radio plays out so many songs and so much music. It gets annoying because some bands are not supposed to become so famous. Its good for the bands because they are making money but it sucks for the fans because they have followed the music for so long and it gets annoying when other people become fans because they have heard the music on the radio. If a CD comes out and they do not play the music until a year or two later it is not considered new music. And the radio should not play out the music as much as they do because then people just get really annoyed.

GOSSIP
Anywhere you go you are going to have to deal with people and Gossip. People think that because they go to a new school and meet new people they will not be bothered with gossip. In all reality people will talk about you anywhere you go. Everyone wants to know everyone elses business. No matter what you do you will have someone talking about you, weather what there saying is good or bad.
I have found that it is hard to trust alot of people because if you trust someone and tell them something it is more then likely for them to go around and tell one of there friends. Espicially if what you have to tell them is something that would effect someone else they know.
Comming to School in Staten Island I knew it was going to be just like home and if not worse. My roommate on the other hand thought it would be less stressful and less gossip. It is hard for her to deal with the fact that no matter where you go people are going to judge you no matter where you are. Drama follows you everywhere and unless you become fake and try to please everyone someone is going to have something bad to say about you. This is all a part of growing up and becomming an adult. Gossip and Drama is all a part of being a teenager.
But it dosnt stop when you become an adult. Even people that are out of school have to deal with gossip. When you go to work when you are an adult it is just as bad as when you are in school. Again people always have something to say about you no matter how old you are and it is a shame that they have nothing else better to do.

Kids
I hate when kids come into restaurants. Especially when they are loud and wild from the get go. Right then I know I am going to get a headache fore dealing with these kids. What i hate even more then these little animals are their parents that let them get like this. Instead of getting the smack across the head that they deserve their parents are the ones that provide them with the crackers or unfinished food that the kids take and make a mess out of. How are you gonna let your kid open up all the sugar packets and smear their food all around the table when you know someone else has to clean it up? Especially when they don't have the decency to tip even 15 percent of the bill. They should just save everyone the trouble and get food from the Burger King drive up window and let their kids mess their own house.
Music
I found that in Staten Island there are limited amounts of music that people listen to. Mostly everyone listens to Techno or House music. I feel like if you don’t like to listen to that sort of music people look like you like you’re from another world. Personally I don’t mind the Techno or House music but I also think that there is better music out there. I enjoy listing to music with different beats and words in them.
Every Techno song is a remake of a song that was made popular by another artist. I think that it’s stupid. Why can’t the people that do Techno make their own songs instead of using other peoples and passing them off as their own?
In Jersey we listen to a lot of different types of music. All my friends listen to different music from The Starting Line, Cute is what we aim for, Kenny Chesney, Bonjovi and many different assortments of artist. We all also like to go to different types of concerts. When I talk about a concert to people in Staten Island a lot of them have only gone to Beat Stock. Back home we go to concerts every chance we get.
I have nothing against Techno but I just like to listen to different types of music and I wish I could find some people that liked to listen to the same thing instead of walking around doing the Staten Island fist pump and Raving.

High School
Yesterday I was driving home from school and I decided to go into South Amboy which is the town my high school is in. I haven’t seen my old high school in a long time and by seeing it I got a little upset. I used to love going to school at Cardinal McCarrick and when I look back at my four years there I have nothing but good memories.
As I was passing the school I realized how much I missed it. I used to hate going to school sometimes because I wanted to meet new people and high school is always the same people. Now that I am in college I miss how everyday in high school you would be with the same people.
The thing I miss the most is going to school with my best friend. I’ve known my friend Cassie since we were basically born and we went to school together all our lives. We used to do everything together and now that we are in different school we don’t get to see each other as much as we would like too.

Adapting to college
So far my experience at college is alot of fun. I have made so many new friends and i enjoy spending time with these people. On the other hand I'm finding it a bit difficult to keep up with my homework and papers. The reason for this is most likely because i have no one pushing me to do all my work. I have to wake up and go to class on my own and there is no one to push me to do well.
When you adapt to college you have to take into consideration that it is not a joke. If you don't attend class then you will have a problem catching up on the materials that you have missed. Most of your teachers will fail you if you miss their class more then they would like.
Also adapting to college is hard because you have to develop time management skills so that you can figure out when you will get your work done and when you will go out with your friends. There is also money management that you have to deal with. A lot of your money is going to activities you do out of school but you need to manage how much money you spend with in a week. College is a step you take to taking responsibility for your self.

In this article it is saying how they are going to build a amusement park in my town. I live in a small town called Sayreville. I would never imagine having a amusement park in my town or anywhere near me only because it is so small and not many people would approve of it i don't think anyway.There is a limited am0unt of space in my town to begin with. I don't understand why they would want to build something like that. It really bothers me because to me my town is all ready over crowded and there are to many people in it. If they build this then there are going to be a lot of angry people in my neighborhood.
They want to build a sports complex, movie theater, amusement park, mall, and parking garages. No one would want this around where they live. To me this is absolutely ridiculous.
