When it comes to clothe shopping , it can really get expensive; but, is it worth it or is it just to look cool in school? Sure, new brand cloth may look amazing, but are they really worth the price? This is a debatable theme and it depends on the type of person. To set an example of this some expensive brands as: Calvin Klein, Aeropostale, Hollister, and Buckle may look good but they are overpriced and I personally would prefer if there were cheaper clothing but the same quality, and some stores have implemented this, for example: Ross, Walmart, and TJ Maxx. The society in schools is getting worse every day, you get treated by the way you dress and that is not good because not all people have the same purchasing power, so in a direct way the person gets low self- esteem. One good solution to this daily problem is to implement school uniforms even on public schools, or to standardize dressing codes. Some reasons why being cool relates to brand clothing are that you get treated better, you can express yourself, in a indirect way you show your acquisitive power, it can be a factor that defines your social status, one of the simplest examples to defining this are the celebrities, which you never see dressed with second hand close because they get criticized according to the close they use, because close can also tell how educated is your sense of fashion.

3. To define your social status.

4. To express your feelings in a certain way.

College Parties

In response to some movies that show all of the freshmens, juniors and seniors drinking and smoking in their fraternities with all the girls and everything, that just shows you a wrong idea about college and that in some way affects the parents decission in putting or not putting their children in college. The movies like American Pie, Party Animal, and Van Wilder, in between a lot of other movies that cover that area, have just a small vision of what happens with people that go to college, but if you analice it closer, you can find that people that the cuantity of people that enter college in comparision to the number of people that graduate and the number that leave college, you can clearly observe that graduated students have much more porcentage than the students that don't graduate.

The effects of smoking.

The effects of smoking on human health are serious and in many cases, deadly. For example only one of the more than 400 chemicals in a pack of "smokes" may cause lung cancer, but that is only one of the health issues you can develop by smoking. Even though scientists can´t prove that smokes may kill you, they have discovered that smoking alters some certain type of cells in the body that are used for the gas exchange inside your lungs, which are formed by the pulmonary alveoli. Some other serious side effects are malformation of the fetus during the pregnancy period, in which you can find breathing problems, unsuccessful formation of the crane in some fetuses, cardiac problems, besides affecting fertility.Some scientists also relate smoking to sudden abortion, fetal distress, and placental problems, so basically the consequences of smoking keep on going and appearing too, so try avoiding smokes!
