Rapid progress in the fields of genetics and gene therapy are likely to have profound effects on people’s lives in the foreseeable future. By altering people’s genetic make-up, it may be possible for doctors to cure hereditary diseases, and for parents to choose important characteristics for their children such as their sex or level of intelligence. Such a development would be a major breakthrough for humanity and would solve many present-day problems.
Genetically enhanced people have been seen only in books and movies so far, but with the fast development in genetics nowadays, it’s just a matter of time when they will become reality. Until that happens, the only thing we can do is to ask ourselves what are the good and the bad sides of tampering with people’s genes.
First of all, many diseases could be cured. There are a lot of conditions and illnesses that are inherited from parents and other relatives, for instance colour blindness or Huntington’s disease. With the help of gene therapy, these could be averted. As a result, people would live longer and the quality of their lives would be better.
Additionally, parents would be able to choose the sex of their child. Therefore, they will be happier, since their wish came true. However, the number of girls and boys born would change and it may become a problem in some countries. Parents would also be able to change the level of intelligence of their children. The upside of this possibility is the fact that the more intelligent the child is, the chances of success in his or hers life are greater. Nevertheless, the parents would put a big pressure on their child because they would know its abilities. It would be better to say that with some solved, new problems will emerge.
With the ability to alter people’s genetic make-up and their characteristics, comes the question of manipulation and abuse. A few mistakes can be made here and there. New diseases can be developed and be given to people”by accident” during gene therapy.
There is no question that people will alter their genes to improve themselves. Consequently, many problems will be solved. In spite of that, many more problems will appear.

Party people
There are 40-50 employees in my club, besides me, and most of them are extremely beautiful, both men and women. The ones that aren't are real pros and are the best at what they do. Anyways, as soon as they enter the building, all the people that work there immediately put a smile on their face and are ready to party and have fun. The atmosphere is always incredible because of the energy they have. It's very hard not to like them all. In my case it's hard not to like-like half of the guys.
When I started working there, I had no idea how I was gonna fit in. It turned out that all they talk and joke about is sex, so I figured I'll be fine. It has been two months now since my first day and things have been very interesting. My butt has been grabbed a million times and commented on two times that, and only in a good way. One time my manager and two of my colleagues asked me to come to the office. I started freaking out because I thought that I did something wrong or something like that, and they asked me to show them my panties. I was shocked. They made a bet about what kind am I wearing and they were willing to give me money to show them. I thought about it for a minute and I did it. My manager won the bet and I got my money as well.
All the time my coworkers tell me how great I look and hot I am. They also say what would they want to do with me and to me. They tried to talk me into it, but they failed. However I managed to talk them into showing me and few other people what they're hiding in their pants. A few of us were outside the office, five or six. I was waiting for my ride home and others were waiting for their wages. They were talking about penises and I was bored. So I suggested that they put their pants down so I could see and compare them. I didn't think they would do it, but they did. My favorite turned out to belong to a guy that I like most of those that were there, and he's in my top 5 colleagues. He's very confident, funny and handsome and he knows all the ladies like him. He wanted to have sex with me then, but I refused. Actually he said that few times before, but I didn't take him so seriously before. Did I mention he has a really hot blond girlfriend? I would like to have sex with him but not like that.
Anyways, it's extremely interesting to work with all of them. I always thought working was all work and no fun, but here everybody is crazy and willing to play, and by play I mean have sex with me. I lost my train of thought now... I guess I should just finish my post here.
Peace and out!

Television cannot replace the book as a learning tool, which is why children are less well educated today.
Television is a very powerful thing. It can be useful as well as useless, but is it good to use it for educational purposes for our children and how much do they really learn from it? In my opinion, television can become one of the best learning tools for our children.
First of all, books are tiresome for children. They are more interested in watching something, rather than reading and imagining. For them all the action is happening on screen, not on paper between letters. If a child is more willing to watch something, then it’s able to learn more.
Additionally, pictures, sounds and videos are very useful in the learning process. They help children remember a lot of important information and fact. For example, when a child watches a cartoon or plays a video-game, it will learn a song, names of characters, where they live and what they do. If that cartoon were about Julius Caesar or an elephant, this child will know all the most important things about their life.
The reason for children being less well educated today doesn’t lie in television as much as it lies in the quality of television shows. There is a lack of educational TV series, shows and cartoons. Nobody seems to care about what are the children actually learning from the cartoons they are watching. If the teachers and parents start choosing what their little ones are going to watch, everyone would be better educated and happier.
We live in a world where television is a big part of our life. It makes us laugh, it makes us cry, but at the same time it teaches us as well as our children a lot of different things, and it is without question a very important learning tool.

Preparation for the IELTS exam
For some time now, I have been preparing to take the IELTS exam. I have only one month finish my studying and pass it. I need to score 6 or 6.5 so I can go to Australia and work and study there. I'm extremely nervous and I'm freaking out. And my mom isn't helping because she's also freaking out, even worse than I am. I'm sure I'll do fine on listening and reading module if I concentrate, but I'm not so sure about writing and speaking. In these two modules it depends on the topic I get. And you can see in this picture what do I look like when I have to write an essay, only I'm not blond and I sit on my bed. My sister found this picture somewhere and had to show it to everyone because it reminded her of me. Anyways, I really, really hope I'll do great on the exam.
