Marijuana is one of the worlds most popular drugs and most harmful. Yet in many countries the drug can be used and is allowed. But in the United States the drug is illegal yet somehow people always find a way to get it in from Mexico and other countries where ti is grown. It is a good thing that this drug is illegal because that way we can minimize the drug circulation and prevent it from even crossing our borders. But what if marijuana was legalized and could be purchased at the local drug store or gas station? The effect on this would be very catastrophic due to the drugs high cost. It would bring the market way up but would destroy everyone who smokes it.
There are many reasons why this drug should not be let legalized. One is that young teenagers would have the double of impact on wanting to try the dangerous drug. If it was available to buy at the drug store then most teenagers would take advantage. It would have a huge effect on the number of people out on the streets smoking and would no longer want to smoke regular cigarettes but rather the drug. It is also probable that children would start smoking at a younger age due to the influence that they would be getting from friends and even family. You would also most likely see more people dying sooner everyday. Marijuana is twice as harmful as a regular cigarette and twice as more addicting because of the high amount of nicotine it has. One joint of marijuana is equivalent to smoking three cigarettes which can triple the rates for lung cancer.
These are just some of the reasons why marijuana should not be let legalized and keeping out and away from our borders. The less young people America can have out on the streets the more doctors, nurses, engineers, painters, and CEO's we can have out in the business world. America would be such a better place without marijuana

The Three Little Pigs- Narration
Three little pigs went out to buy materials to build a house. The first one bought straw, the second bought sticks and the third one bought bricks. After there houses were finished along came the wolf. The wolf blew down the house of straw of the first little pig and ate him. The wolf blew down the house of sticks of the second little pig but managed to escape and ran off to his brothers house who had his house made of bricks. The wolf blew and blew but could not bring down the house. He decided to climb down the chimney, but the pigs were fast to react. They put a pot of boiling water on fire and the wolf fell down and the two little pigs had wolf stew for supper.

Sex Before Marriage
Many people today believe that having sexual intercourse before marriage is a common and normal thing. Others think that it is better to wait until you are married and find the right person to do it with at the right time. Personally I believe that it is better to wait until marriage for alot of reasons. It may seem hard to hold back on all the temptations but it is 100% worth it. I know that I have made some bad decisions in my life but if I could go back and fix my mistakes I would and I would keep it like that until the day I say "I do".
One of the main reasons that people should wait to have sex after marriage is because of the all the STD's that are out there and can be transmitted with just one time that you do it. AIDS, gonorrhea, are among the most common STD's that can be caught and the worst thing is that there is no cure for these types of diseases. Although many say that using condoms is the solution, they are never 100% secure and safe. The only way for sure is abstinence. Another reason that people shouldn't is because of teen pregnancy. For the past ten years or so the percentage of teen pregnancy has more than double meaning that teens are not being carefull of their decisions. Having a baby is a beautiful thing but no teen is ready yet to carry on the day to day responsibilities of having a baby. Thats why its better to wait until marriage so people can have as many kids as they want and will be able to raise them properly. The last reason is because of your own dignity. People lose respect and their own dignity when they are seen going around sleeping with any guy or girl they meet. Its better to wait so that others can look up to you and keep your dignity clean.
These are just some of the reasons why people should wait to have sexual intercourse until after marriage. Teen girls feel presured by their boyfriends and threaten them by saying if they dont get any then they will leave them. Others trick them by saying its love and feelings. There are other ways you can show someone you love them and if someone only wants you only just to do it than leave them because if you do than you are only getting used. Abstinance is the key and the wait is worth it.

Foods- Classification
Almost every country of the world today has their own and unique food or special dish. Here in America, we find all kinds of foods almost everywhere we go . Personally I enjoy 3 types of foods Mexican, American, and Italian. Tacos, nachos, burritos, enchiladas, and tamales, can be classified as Mexican food. Hamburgers, hotdogs, BBQ, and sandwiches fall under American food. Lastly is pasta, pizza, lasagna, and raviolli are all classic Italian dishes. People can tell these dishes are Italian because they all use pasta sauce, they are all made out of dough, and even their names are Italian. As we can see the world has alot to offer when it comes to food, its only a matter of choice of what we like to eat.
