2012 winter youth oympics!

For the first time ever, young athletes gathered Jan. 13-22 in Austria for the Winter Youth Olympic Games. The event began with traditional opening ceremonies for more than 1,000 competitors from more than 70 nations. Ranging in age from 14 to 18, they competed in the 15 core events held at the Olympic Games. I think this is realy cool because it gives the opportunity for younger youth to be in the olympics. I think this would be super cool to purticapate in and represent my country.

Life in a day

This film was made by youtube. they had milloins of people tape little parts of their day anthen editors combined all of them to make a giant movie. The mom whith cancer was very memerable to me. It can relate to alot of people with family members going through health issues. I really enjoyed seeing the freeruning it looked really cool and exciting. I felt really bad though when i saw the young shoe shiner child that was very poor. He had to work hard for his family so they could survive and he was only 5. that part really spoke to me.

I find Dharma Master Cheng Yen very influencing. He teaches that everyone has the potential to over come the suffering of the world. He has millons of followers and is non profit. he teaches everything starts with good Kar. I also find Shuja Pasha inflencing. He is a general in pakistan. I dont find him nessasarily good but influntial to some of the people to pakistan and other anti-americans.
