My tripe to ATL was crazy. Now I see why they call ATL black Hollywood. 
 You wont believe what my cousin and I when though to get to ATL.We got to the airport at 6:30am and
we did not leave until 4:45. I was so mad because we miss a lot of shopping time. When we finally got there, it
took us another three hours to get to the house. At that moment all I wanted to
do is sleep, but you know that was not going to happen. So instated we starting
a weekend of non-stop partying. That was the best spring break I ever had. We
decided to go back in May. I am thinking about moving there when I graduated
but my parents will go crazy.

I am in the process of choosing a bill. Yesterday I visited some web sites and read about different bills and none same interesting to me. I want to pick a bill that I feel passionate about. I plan to give a strong argument about whatever topic I plan to focus on. i want my audience to relate to what im talking about and understand my main points.

This is a follow up, Referring to what I posted last week, regarding my trip to ATL. Well I asked my parents and I was not given an answer directly. But I think it’s a yes because they did not dismiss the idea. Usually when I ask them to go somewhere I get a yes or no right away, but it’s different this time. I don’t understand what sparked a change in their ability to make decisions in a heart beat. I have three days; they need to make a decision fast…

last year my cousin and i had this great idea about getting all the girls together and going on a road trap for spring break. But every time it was brought up, people seems uninterested in the whole idea.  Three weeks ago my cousin and i was talking about how we can't wait for spring break, and out of no where she brought up the same idea we had last year. So i though to myself for a second, then i ask her, if i were to say yes, where would we go? her respond was ATL. Since i never been to ATL i was very interested in going, i told her yes. Its funny how easy it is to say yes, but so hard to ask your parents for permeation, knowing that you already insure the person that you are going....i wonder how this going to play out. Stay tone to see if i make it to ATL....

New Jersey has Ben drivers from using cell phones behind the wheel without a hands-free device. If cough using a cell phone without a hands free device, New Jersey police officers can find drivers $ 100. New Jersey join for other state which this law has been enforced and is also the first state where text messaging on the road is a primary offense. According to Pam Fischer, director of New Jersey's Division of Highway Traffic Safety, "The law is designed to get those law-abiding folks to understand the danger inherent in these activities." They are saying that even with the hand-free device it don’t make conversations in the car any safer. The article states that in 2006, nearly half of the 3,580 phone-related crashes in New Jersey also involved a hands-free device. They are hoping that this new law will help cut down on automobile accidents in New Jersey.

I am in favor of this law, mainly because it could save a lot of lives in the long run. This law was needed long time ago, but law makers don’t realize the damage that we as a society are in, until it hit an all time high. I think it should not be like that because people are being affected by their decision to wait until it increases to make a change. On the up side, the law helps drivers drive safely and save them money in the process.
