How plagerism has effected me!!!!

My junior year of high school we had the opportunity to write something, whether it be a poem, story, or just something written down about things that have effected us. I had worked on a poem for 3 months, then we were told that we could write something and it could be published. I turned in my poem to the English teacher in charge of the activity, which was my English teacher. Well that teacher left it out in the open for any and everyone to look at it. A few days later my teacher had called me to her desk and asked me if I had taken the poem off her desk, and at the moment I knew that someone had taken it. I found out that my poem was publish, but with someone elses name on it. I will never forget that day.

Being Part of big blog community.

I'm not exactly sure as to what im supposed to do for these assignments, but I'll do the best I can. Being part of a huge blog community is kinda scary because you do not know who is going to read what you are writing and who is going to be following you. I have a facebook and I was scared to start it because of all the stories there are about the crazy people and stalkers. I have had the facebook for a couple years now and I'm still scared to have people on there that I do not know. I have classmates from Kaplan on there, but that's as far as it goes with those I do not know in person.
