The president of the United States of America

What are we fighting for now days it seems to me that Bush has to many personal interests in this war. Look at the facts Bush's Farther went to war Operation Dessert Storm and the first Bush didn't win. So did Bush go in to war to finish what his farther couldn't if that had any thing to do with war then I think my 14 year old sister could run the country better than he is. If you look closely you find all the evidence that says that there was no reason to go to war in the first place. Did you ever here if they found the so call Weapons of Mass Destruction. Come realistily Bush has made many mistakes and I am sorry but if you are going lead are country then you need to think before you act cause he sure doesn't cause we have a lot of issues on our hands that it will take years to fix. We are in debt $8,976,544,727,047.08 the estimated population of the United States is 303,127,272 so if each citizen's share of this debt is $29,613.12. So now the New president in 08 will have to find away to get that debt down and well there is only so many ways you can do that and the first on the list taxes you know they will have raise taxes of some sort. One of the biggest thing that bush has done is the No Child left behind act. It is a good program idea it needs to be modified I am sorry but there are kid out there who has learning disability and you expect them to be at the same level of their class you are joking theirs no way It takes time for disability kids to fully understand and sometimes their cases that it may never fully understand you just have to keep trying to teach them so that they can maybe learn on their own.

Time Management

My time is used very wisely I have a very busy schedule I like to have my events or meetings scheduled out I have to know ahead of time so I don't get flustered it drives me crazy when I am late for anything cause that is time I could of used to get my work done.
I have a monthly schedule of all my activities and classes so I don't say I will do something and then have call and cancel my commitment to that individual. That's like going out on and date and say o I for got my wallet and you have pay.
My high school years were okay I got better as I went up the grade levels. I do feel that as I become more of an adult I am becoming aware of things I know I should have managed more efficiently. My college years are even more hectic then my high school cause I have to add a something to my schedule that I haven't really had to do in high school was my class schedule. Because when I made my schedule in high school it just involved the activity I was in and days I could work for my job. So adding my class schedule was a different approach for me when started school this year. It has been tricky getting my schedule worked out I still have a few kinks in it they will resolved in time. I do feel like my judgment in what I do is a big part of time management cause sometimes you may have it schedule to do something but do something totally different.
