I don't think that 12 year olds are ready to chose their own careers. They aren't ready because they most likely just started middle school and didn't fully mature yet, and lastly because if kids cant even handle homework and dislike getting up early to go to school, theres no chance of them getting up to go to work.
Since kids didn't fully mature, they won't take their work seriously. They might skip a day or won't finish their work , not realizing that their boss will fire them if it continues. This could cause much kayos in our world. Also since kids don't want to go to school or get up in the morning to do so, I am sure they wouldn't want to do that for work. This proves kids aren't ready to choose their careers.
Even though I don't think kids are ready to choose their careers, but if I had to choose my life assignment now I would choose to be a nurturer. I would choose to be a nurturer because I enjoy playing with little kids and taking car of them.

The Giver: Connection
"You know the rules. Two children-one male, and one female- to each family unit." This text reminds me of how in some country's only a certain amount of kids per family are allowed I got this text from page 8. This connection is a text to world.

The Giver: book club
A perfect world, is only imaginable if you live where I live. A perfect world would be different from our world because in a perfect world there would be no crime and no violence. There would also be people that aren't in dept and also no poverty. Our world would have no similarities with a perfect world because our world doesn't have any perfect qualities. When I image a perfect day in a perfect world, I think of waking up in a beautiful home where i can get up get go outside and get a hi and a nice warming smile from anyone. I also imagine being able to go to work and earning a paycheck that allows me too pay off important things as well as use the rest of the money to enjoy myself. Also I would imagine ending my day with a nice dinner with my family, then go to sleep in a cozy bed without worrying about any problems, because there is none. Now thats a perfect world!

Guinea pigs
Behavior:Guinea pigs rarely bite or scratch, but they can be messy-scattering food, water and bedding all over their cages. Their vocabulary includes about nine sounds, from whistling to purring to squealing. They are most active at dusk and dawn, but easily adjust to the routine of your household. Guinea pigs can be fun to watch. They like to explore new settings, but if scared, they’ll either freeze or scatter in different directions
Looks:Guinea pigs come in a variety of colors and coats from which you can choose. They may be a solid color, or a combination of two or three colors. Their coat may be short, long, silky or whorled. There are even hairless guinea pigs! If you choose a long-haired guinea pig, be prepared to help him groom himself by combing him once every two or three weeks
Cleaning of the cage:To keep your
pet’s home clean and safe, change the bedding daily. Once a week, thoroughly wash and disinfect his cage with a solution of one ounce of bleach mixed in a liter or quart of water. Be sure the cage is rinsed well and completely dry before adding fresh bedding and putting Piggy back inside. Rinse feeders and waterers every day, too. And keep your friend’s home dry, as dampness can cause illness
Feeding:
Guinea pigs are strict herbivores. They should be fed a complete, pelleted diet made especially for guinea pigs that contains at least 16% crude protein. The pellets should not be fed more than 90 days after their milling. Also provide small amounts of grass hay, and supplement Piggy’s diet with a source of active ascorbic acid, such as a handful of cabbage or half a handful of kale (washed and fresh) or a quarter of an orange. Because guinea pigs can’t produce their own Vitamin C, you should add a Vitamin C supplement to their water as well a teaspoon of Vitamin C liquid to 12 ounces of water. The water will need to be replaced daily, however, as the Vitamin C will lose its potency rather quickly.

Sledding in the the snow!
My body filled with fear while I hold on the sled with all my force. I scream a little on the way down. But once I realized I was almost to the bottom I didn't feel scared I actually felt proud that I faced my fears. The sled stopped as I reached the bottom. I got off my sled and ran back up for another turn. It was really fun and now I am not scared. I must of done it about 20 times till I got tired and decided to go home. I cant wait till it snows again for me to go sledding.!
My great fishing trip!

My main goals for 2011
#1 Buy a nook.
I want to buy a nook because it allows me to read books I don't have. It also will allow me to read certain books for free. Reading is one of my favorite passions. By getting the nook I can read everyday which will increase my reading level. I will try to accomplish this goal by saving up my allowance I get every other week.
#2 Get a pet.
I want to get a pet because it will show my parents how responsible I am when i take care of it and feed it. My apartment doesn't allow dogs or cats but small pets are allowed like a fish or bunny etc.... I would prefer a guinea pig because there small and easy to take care of. I will try to accomplish this goal by helping out my parents more and showing how responsible I am.
#3 Blog once a week
