Can you spot the truth from the lies?

1) I play soccer with knee and elbow pads.
2) I go to Europe every year.
3) I live with both my parents and older sister.
4) My older sister broke my clavicle when I was 8.
5) I have two chihuahuas.
6) I drive a geo metro with all spare tires.

"My Boo"(feat. Alicia Keys)

[Usher intro:]

There's always that one person
That will always have your heart
You never see it coming
Cause you're blinded from the start
Know that you're that one for me
It's clear for everyone to see
Ooh baby ooh you'll always be my boo

[Alicia intro:]
I don't know bout you all
But I know about us and uh
It's the only way
We know how to rock
I don't know bout you all
But I know about us and uh
It's the only way
We know how to rock

[Usher Verse:]
Do you remember girl
I was the one who gave you your first kiss
Cause I remember girl
I was the one who said put your lips like this
Even before all the fame and
People screaming your name
Girl I was there when you were my baby

[Chorus (Usher):]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taken over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo

[Alicia:]
I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo

[Alicia Verse:]
Yes I remember boy
Cause after we kissed
I could only think about your lips
Yes I remember boy
The moment I knew you were the one
I could spend my life with
Even before all the fame
And people screaming your name
I was there and you were my baby

[Chorus:]
[Usher:]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taken over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo

[Alicia:]
I was in love with you when we were younger
You were mine my boo
And I see it from time to time
I still feel like my boo
And I can see it no matter
How I try to hide my boo
Even though there's another man who's in my life
You will always be my boo

[Usher:]
My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo

[Alicia:]
My oh, My oh, My oh, My oh, My Boo

[Chorus (Usher):]
It started when we were younger
You were mine my boo
Now another brother's taken over
But its still in your eyes my boo
Even though we used to argue it's alright
I know we haven't seen each other
In awhile but you will always be my boo

[Alicia & Usher:]
I don't know bout you all
But I know about us and uh
It's the only way
We know how to rock
I don't know bout you all
But I know about us and uh
It's the only way
We know how to rock

SNAP!!!

The articles I choose was the one about soda being excluded from foods food-stamp users or not. I think that soda should be excluded due to the fact that many children are consuming a large amount of soda. Even though one of the articles states that this wouldn’t be the complete solution, I think it can contribute in making it easier for parents to keep their children at their normal weight. Obesity is being seen a lot in young children. Also dental problems are being affected by all the sweets being consumed by the children. The children need to change their eating habits and this can help.
Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) was made with the intention to help low - income families. They want to support them financially so that they can provide their families with food. There are exceptions towards what they can buy but still it’s not enough. Non food things, alcohol beverages and restaurant meals are things you can’t buy with SNAP. I think that they should a lot more things to that list for example: candy, chips, soda, as well as any sweets or foods with a lot of fat. SNAP needs to be a lot more strict about what SNAP users can buy. I think that if a few more items were added to the things they can’t buy we would see a big difference in the health of all those families who use food stamps. Not only the children but the parents will also be in a better health status. If the families really depend on food stamps to buy food, otherwise they can use their own money to buy all of the excluded products. This way SNAP will also be able to see what families are really needy of their help.

My Family

My family is very small it only had three people, but just added two not so long ago. The main person is my mom. Then it is my older sister Marlene. The thrid person is Genesis my sisters baby girl. We are used to always being a small family. It has always been three of us until Genesis came and grew our family by two. Adding Genesis and her dad Julio.
My mom is very special to me, she is also my dad. She has always been there for me and i am grateful of having such a great mom. She shows a lot of affection and support to all of us. My mom has struggled in life but has never given up. For that reason Marlene and me have always had everything we have needed. I love her and thank god that we are so lucky to have a mom like her.
The second person is Marlene, she is 19 years old and has Genesis. Marlene and me have always been really close, we are like best friends. Since it was always just us two we became close. What also got us to be so close is that we are only a year and a half apart in age. We both paly soccer and even until now we play in the same team. She is a great sister eventhough she is more like my younger sister. I would always take care of her and still do.
Genesis is the cutest most adorable baby ever. Well at lest to our family she is. She brought happiness to our family when we needed it the most. Her and Julio have been an addition to our little family. We have learned to live together. My mom and I spend a lot of time with Genesis since we all love her so much.
Now that i realize it my family isn't as small as i thought. It has grown by two, and those two people are amazing. Marlene has always been a good sister and I am happy that I have her. As well as my precious mom. Eventhough this family isn't as big as others we all love eachother, and at the end thats all that counts.
