           This article is about Julia Hill, an American woman. She was born in 1974. She was discovered that a company wanted to cut down part of a forest in California. Julia wasn't happy about this. She travelled to California and climbed up the tree. At the beginning, Julia planned to stay in the tree for two weeks. She lived in a small tree-house and her friends were very helpful- they cooked food for her everyday. She stayed in the tree day and night. Environmental organisations supported her, but other people weren't on her side and they tried to stop her. The company used helicopter that stayed near her tree-house for a long time. She didn't like it because it was very noisy but she still stayed in the tree. In the end. she was successful. The company agreed not to cut down the redwood. Finally. after two years and eight days in the tree, Julia Hill climbed down and walked on the ground again. She and her friends were very happy.

cyber bullying

             Bullying has been around forever but cyber bullying is different because it lets a bully remain anonymous. What is cyber bullying? Cyber bullying is a serious issue. It is harassment caused over the internet or cell phones. Cyber bullying occurs when a child torments, harasses, or threatens others.  It is easier to bully in cyber than it is to bully face to face. With cyber bullying a bully can pick on people with much less risk of being caught.This is never involved with an adult or that is known as cyber stalking. Students think it’s so cool to bully others when they are just playing around but the victim will most likely take it seriously

What are the ways to prevent it? One way to prevent cyber bullying is by telling others to never pass                  on harmful messages about someone to others because that person could be really embarrassed about it. You can also step up to friends and tell them to stop cyber bullying only if they are. Another way is by letting parents watch what their children are doing on the internet. That way the parents know if anything is wrong with their child. There are many more ways to prevent cyber bullying.

Many people may think that cyber-bullying is not a problem in life, well think again it can change a victim’s life forever by just one offensive comment about them. I will make sure the victim want to commit suicide, drop out of school, and suffer from self-esteem issues like depression and anxiety. What cyber-bullies would do in order for them to trace their victims? For cell phones they are able to contact with others by texting or calling but for the internet it would have websites where most kids would join now a days such as, facebook, myspace, twitter, blogspots, and e-mail. I would say that the internet is one of the best places for cyber-bullying than through cell phones because when communicating through the internet they are able to not only associate with only their victims.

 Kids become cyber bullying because it is a way for them to bully someone without having to get in trouble at school, and they can do it anonymously. Kids who are insecure with themselves are usually the ones doing the bullying. It is truly sad to hear that teens and even kids are committing suicide because they were bullied so badly over the internet. When a teenager or kid feels that the only thing to turn to from being cyber bullied is taking their own life, then something is very wrong.        

How to report it? You can report cyber bullying by letting your parents know. They will take care of the situation but just in case they do not let the staff of the school know. They must take care of it immediately.

Dear Dave,

       Hello Dave, how are you doing? I hope you are in a good condition. it's been a long time since we're correspond. We haven't been in contact for a while. I heard that you are under depression and you are almost succeed in suicide. Luckily your mother quickly ran to asked for help. What's wrong with you, friend? You need someone to burst out your pain. Actually, i write this letter to encourage and trying to help you going out from the depression shell. I hope you don't mind because i really want to help you from getting worst.

       Suicide is not chosen. It happens when pain exceeds. You are not a bad person or razy because you feel suicidal. It does not even mean that you really want to die. It means that you have more pain than you can cope with right now. You can survive suicidal feelings if you do either o two things which is find a way to reduce your pain or find a way to increase your coping resources. Actually, both are posibble. 

       Now i want to tell you five things to think about. First, you need to hear that people do get through this, even people who feel as badly as you are feeling now. Statistically, there is a good chance that you are going to live. People often turn to suicide because they are seeking relief from pain. Remember taht relief is a pain. You will not feel the relief that you so desperately seek, if you are dead. You have to be alive!

       Next, give yourself some distance. Put some distance between your suicidal feelings and suicidal action. Even if it's just 24 hours. Remember that feelings and actions are two different things. Just because you feel like killing yourself, it doesn't mean that you have to actually do it right this minute. So, say to yourself "I will wait 24 hours before i do anything". That is very encouraging me and i hope it is to you too.

       Some people will react badly to your suicidal feelings because they are frightened or angry. They may actually increase your pain instead of helping you, despite their intentions by saying or doing thoughtless things.   You have to understand that their bad reactions are about their fears not about you. But there are people out there who can help you in this horrible time and will not judge you or argue with you.They will simply care you. Find one of them now. Use your time and tell someone what's going on with you. It is okay to ask for help. Try to call a psychotherapist, carefully choose a friend or someone who is likely to listen.

       Don't give yourself the additional burden if trying to deal with this alone. Just talking about how you got to  where you are, releases an awful lot of the pressure and it might be just the additional coping resource you need to regain your balance. You need to continue caring yourself. Therapy is a really good idea. So, the various self-help groups are available in community and on internet.

       If you find someone who wants to listen, tell them how you are feeling and how you got to this point. You will have increased your coping resources. Hopefully the first person chosen won't be the last. There are a lot of people out there who really want to hear from you. It's time to start looking around for one of them.

your friend,

shyie

Glee (duets)

 Summary: Finn and Rachel plan to throw the competition so Sam can win when club members are assigned duets; Mike, Tina and Artie find themselves in a love triangle. (YouTube source)

 I like this episode. Seriously, I enjoyed it so much that I only noticed that Sue and Emma were not in this episode. I admit the episode totally had that great early Season 1 feel to it. This episode had great musical performances that were relevant and character development.

-  Quinn and Sam have some CHEMISTRY going on and their last scene together made me smile. It was so romantic. Was it?? I just can't get enough of them. For me, Quinn has a beautiful eyes and suitable with Sam. They are match in duets.

- Rachel and Finn was adorable, more so than at any point they've been in a while. Haha. They looked funny when singing BORN AGAIN. It was hilarious! I kind of liked them in this episode.

SING!  This performance was cute and fun. Haha.. Tina sound great and Mike Chang's timing was surprising good. The lyrics was quite funny. Haha..

- Brittany and Artiestoryline was pretty surprising, mostly because I never expected that she would fall for him. I actually felt bad for Brittany at the end. To be honest, Brittany is promiscuous and everyone knows that. I bet Arties also knows that, so he got nothing to complain about it.

HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN was a prefect duet for Kurt and Rachel and it is the best song to end the episode. I love how their voices together really well on this song. However, Rachel's face expressions during they singing were kind of annoying, although Kurt looked so sophisticated.
