Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Hi all, I'm new here! My name is Alysia and I'm a 17 year old (18 in a few days, actually) high school senior. I live in a small town full of super-conservatives. Luckily my family is not included in this category. Green people are few and far between here. Anyway, I'd like your input on something, if you don't mind. As a senior, I'm expected to do a senior project. We were supposed to turn in our proposals over a month ago, but I have not yet...Mostly, because I am very choosy. I would very much like to do something that has a positive effect on the the environment. Senior projects need to include something like 20 hours of work and an end product. Other than that, they are fairly open. Oh, they also are supposed to have something to do with a future career, but I categorized my future career as being involved with " biological and/or environmental sciences " so that's no problem. I'm not a particularly outgoing person (i.e., I'm shy!), so I'd really enjoy it if I didn't have to deal with ALOT of people with my project, but if necessary, I can get over it. ANY suggestions AT ALL would be greatly appreciated! love, Alysia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 25, 2005 Report Share Posted October 25, 2005 Dear Alysia; I want to commend you for "marching to a different drummer"... There was an outcast who wrote Death on the Installment Plan". His name was Celine(?) He was a physician, and a jew., in order to not be put to death he was a doctor used by the Nazi's... He was an out-cast of outcast's the jews thought he should Die before that... he did't want to be a martyr... the German's after losing the war treated him as an outcast and scorned him, and made his life a hell on earth... I'm refering to this because you said that you are "green' in a verconservative community. I would be interested if you get any "hate" remarks or backlash... I am an independent producer (sooooon to be shut out of the air waves because of brosd-band limiting the air to only a few channels... Independent producers for justice causes won't be able to get their cable shows on the air any longer... Broadband will wipe us out so I am a concerned human in extiction... and writer(struggling... My project is on poverty in NYC and the other book, Journey to the end of the Night... Also you may want to research George Orwell's book, Down and Out in Paris and London... As far a a career move working in the environment is quite difficult... When activist, Abbie Hoffman did that in his last years he died of an "over-dose"... I though it was very suspitious... He was a model for the Hippies of MY GENERATION. The topic you can take up to research is one I am truly overwhelmned by for the implications for the existance of the PLANET. period... iT IS THE 6TH eXTINCTION... yOU'LL HAVE TO FACE A LOT OF HEAT IF YOU DO IT. THE EXTREMES OF CLIMATE HAVE BEEN FORCASTED... GO TO THE NATIONAL GEO WEBSITE... aMERICANS ARE "DIMLY aWARE OF THIS"... oH DEAR i DO HOPE YOU ARE NOT AN INFILTRATOR... tHIS FIELD IS FULL OF SNITCHES FROM THE mILITARY-INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX... GOD'S SPEED... pEN-EVENGER ONE MAN (gender-neutral) WITH COURAGE IS A MAJORITY Emerson Alysia <alyswimgirl24 wrote: Hi all, I'm new here!
