My Life in King's Academy

L&C



Hi I'm Meshal from Saudi Arabia I have 16 years old. I study in King's Academy in Jordan. My life in King's it's not difficult because it's the same in Saudi Arabia. Just my first day in King's was difficult, I'm new in the school and I come late after two weeks, everybody knows each other's except me. I was alone for a week, then I started to talk with the student. first one I met him was AHMED he's a good boy. I started my first day in school, everyone in my classes see me and thought I'm arrogant. First day done and I come back to my room and sleep. Proctors woke me up for study hall, I don't know what is study hall and what should I do on it, I just complete sleeping until the end of study hall. Proctors told me that I can't sleeping during study hall, and they gave me early check in. I was confused about the rules. Student ask me about my age when I tell them I'm 16, they tell me why you are in ninth grade. It became annoying every day someone ask me the same question. The schedule for the weekend, in Thursday I go to my room and sleep until 6 pm, then I go with my friend to play basketball, We have fun at GYM, I do some homework at night. I usually keeping do. my homework until midnight then I go to wake up everyone in dorm. 
  

A Good Resolution.

what does New Year's Resolution mean? that's mean if you want do something in the New Year plan for it and start work on it. Maybe it will be difficult to you to work on your resolution but at least you tried. Your resolution should be on what you think you should do, stop doing bad thing. For example, you smoke 20 cigarettes in a day, and you want stop smoking. First thing you should do is to make plan to stop smoking. Don't wait until new year or new month to start on your resolution, plan for it and start work on it. you will fail or your resolution will succeed. its challenge to you to start new resolution but if you have insistence and love your resolution it will be succeed. at the end, anyone can make resolution in his life, but not everyone can do it right.

I have a bad habit that I always do it in school day, that I don't do the homework on time. And I don't be serious in the class. For example, one day I was in physics class and I didn't do the homework, the teacher took 2 point from the homework points. When I was in my old school I was doing this bad habit because they didn't care if you did your homework or not, but here in King's Academy they care about your homework. In my old school there were a lot of bad habits I was doing for example, when the teacher doesn't come to his class we can just spend the time and play around. I learned that here in King's if you spent your time without studying or take care in your points in the classes, you will lose teacher's attention. If I change this bad habit I will be in the top in the class, and the teacher will help me because he knows that I want change this bad habit. It will change my life in King's if I change this bad habit first of all, I will be happy and excited to take the class. It matters if I change it on this time, that will help me on the future, on the presentation, quizzes and the homework. On the past I wasn't do every homework the teacher gave me to do, because I have bad habit that I was careless, but now I start do my homework and participate in the class that will give me more point. Also that will improve my life to the right side not the bad side. I will role myself when I should play and when I should study and do my homework and study for quizzes. 

Freedom is Freedom

In areas of the world where freedom of speech is not protected, citizens are afraid to speak out against their government for fear of being locked away in a cell for life. Free speech is not only about your ability to speak but the ability to listen to others, and allow other views to be heard. We need to hear other's opinions even if you don't like it. Freedom of speech is one of the most precious and important human rights. A free society depends on the free exchange of ideas. Free speech has been the topic of many debates of the Charlie Hebdo attacks. The terrorist attack on the magazine in Paris in 2015, has led to many questions whether free speech is used as an excuse to be offensive. 

Also freedom of speech can do some harm. Sometimes freedom of speech is bad because nobody from the government accepts it. For example, what happened in Bahrain when one woman ripped a photo of the king she was punished and kicked her out of the country. Not all countries are like Bahrain. France has freedom of speech but they also sometimes have problems from this. Such us what happened with the people in the magazine. Two Muslim men came to the office of the magazine and killed 16 people because they made a silly cartoon of the Prophet Mohammad. Because freedom of speech they killing.

The solution of freedom of speech in many way, put limited to freedom of speech to avoid problem. The government can make the solution by tell the peoples it's okay to say anything to government but carefully. Another solution can be to put men in the government that they just listen to people that have problems with laws or the government then the people who work with the government tell king their problems. But i think the solution just to put limit for freedom of speech. Also they can't tell you there is no freedom of speech because this is one of the human rights.
