What do you know about photography and/or photo editing? Do you take photos? How do you take photos? Do you edit photos before posting them on social media? How do you edit them? Explain any background or knowledge you have about photography and photo editing. Do you like it? Do you have any interest?

When I take pictures, I don't use any filters because I don't waste my time caring about how a picture looks. I do take photos but don't really care to make them look better by adding a filter. I don't own a camera other than my phone and I don't know how to Photoshop stuff.

Tell me about your weekend. Share pics!

This weekend I went to the football game on Friday and that was about the highlight of my weekend. I also went to the movie theater to see Alexander and the terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day. It was a funny movie but it was also uncomfortable because some kid next to us threw up... It was disgusting to say the least. Either way I still had a good weekend and cant wait till the next one.

Below is a letter written to the editor who wrote the article 'Enforcement of dress code creates negative effect' that your blogged about last week. Most of you wrote on your blog that you agreed with the writer. What are your thoughts after reading the letter below and seeing a different perspective. Are they the same? Are the different? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.

After reading this I can agree with her and her understanding of the issue. It's not the girls fault for wearing their clothes, its just the guys fault for not being able to focus. She has a perfect point, if girls buy the clothes they like then they should be able to wear them.

 My version of a perfect curriculum would be teaching us math, English, science. The rest wont necessarily accelerate us in life. Although there are other things that people would take to become better in one subject, I feel we shouldn't be required to take those classes. Right now in our modern day, you have to take a certain amount of classes to get points for different categories. Eating and sleeping is a necessity also. Maybe the school system could introduce a longer lunch period and more choices of food.

The following article was in the September issue of The Tiger Print. Read the article (even if you already have) and respond to it below. What do you think? Do you agree? Disagree? Consider all perspectives of the article while you respond.

Well, as a boy in high school, I don't have to worry about the dress code as much as the girls. I understand that girls wear what they want, and how the administrators can misconstrue that as a distraction for us guys but it isn't. The reason guys get distracted is because of the lack of focus, not what some innocent girl is wearing. Now, if i was a girl i might wear those clothes to maybe get a compliment or attention of someone. Wearing clothes like that doesn't only effect boys but it could also effect girls. it effect girls i the way as to wondering where they bought it or how'd they look in it. Of course it affects guys more but only because its or fault. I'm not saying that girls should be allowed to where whatever but its not their fault. The distraction of guys is by our own doing. Girls should be allowed to where what is appropriate but the school should restrain there rules a little about how girls dress and the codes and regulations on what to where. If you didn't want girls wearing what they're wearing then have us wear uniforms. But as a public school, the rules might not fully oblige. Keep some rules but also remove some for the reasons being.

Tell me about your weekend! If you don't have anything fun to share, tell me about the city you live in. What do you love about Kansas City? Do you have a favorite place in the city? Favorite team? :) Favorite event? Explain.

This weekend was great because the Royals won the game against the Angels to advance into the ALCS! I went to the game with a friend and my family and we tailgated before and after. During some parts of the game, the rain was nearly going sideways into my sections face yet the Royals were doing so good that all of the fans stayed standing up and cheering. The temperature dropped down to about 50 degrees but luckily I brought a jacket. Good job Royals for protecting the palace and good luck in the ALCS! GO ROYALS!!!
