Introduction
As we all know, the newspaper industry today is slowly, but surely fading. Today’s trends do not necessarily mean the end of newspapers completely, but do signify a change in the way we receive media. With more and more people turning to the internet for information, the students in Ms Roops Creative Writing classes have created a blog. We hope this blog will appeal to readers of all ages.
Phillip Petty 2-28-09 Block-3 You Can Get Used To Anything
You can get used to many things. There are many times in your life when you don’t like something and you think that you will never ever get used to it no matter how hard you try. When you move into a brand new house you have to set up everything again except this time its probably in a different room so it will take a while for you to get situated and be able to get used to everything. For some people this could only take a second but for many others it could be a while for them because they were so used to their old living style and the way everything was before. Another situation where you have to get used to everything is when you purchase a new car. If you buy a new car first you have to compare it to many others and see how it runs before you buy it. If the car is not acting right then you will have to keep looking until you find the right car for you. By the time you buy it the car probably needs a tune up so you have to do all of that again because your old car probably just had a tune up. Since it’s a new car I’m sure that it drives differently than your old one. This car might go faster of slower than the other previous car that you were driving. Also when you switch jobs that could take a good amount of time to get used to. Maybe you were working in a store and now your working in a big place where you have to do a lot of paper work. You were probably just use to standing up and giving people their merchandise but now you’re probably sitting down doing papers all the time instead. It might take a while to get use to it but you can and most likely will be able to do so. So this proves my point about you can get used to anything.
Perry King You can get use to anything that life throws at you. You can get use to failing and you can get use to succeeding. You can get use to being rich, and you can get use to being poor. Getting use to things can be good or bad. Some people get use to there problems to the point that they do not want to correct them. People can get use to being poor. Alot of people who are use to being poor do not believe that they are born to be poor. People can also get use to being a failure. People who are use to being Failures do not believe that they can achieve anything. They believe that they can not achieve anything. In conclussion habits are not hard to make, they are hard to break
You can get used to anything. Suppress congruent smiles, “Hey pretty lady, let me in If only for a little while.”
And your heart pumps poison, poison. How do you get used to a toxic fume? For every breath of her, Remind you, you will always lose.
So untangle your tongue, shake the fumes from your rug.
“Impulse is fatal.” “Precision is too.” You blink and she moves, so you move too. Mirror movements are now easy to make. You just hide your face, When she screams, “Fake, fake, fake!”
This ice will never thaw. Will the strength of Lady Macbeth, “Please, please take my milk for gall!” So that when her eyes are moist and wet, Your fingers won’t brush across her neck. And when she averts your gaze, Your presence won’t drain or fade. When her skin is so enchanting, Flaunting delicate silver webbing, You won’t respond when she whispers: “I’m more scars than skin, I’m more scars than skin…”
“Impulse is fatal.” “Precision is too.” You blink and she moves, so you move too. Mirror movements are now easy to make. You just hide your face, When she screams, “Fake, fake, fake!”
The rivers now hold the color we describe as love, And we can get used to the truths we let go of.
You can get used to anything I could get used to the moon, the sun, the stars All in my backyard And when I’d look to the sky the stars would be mine And the earth at my fingertips
I could get used to floating Floating among the stars Be able to be where no one else could go I could get used to anything
I could get used to living on the moon If I lived on the moon would you come too? Would you float and be free with me? We could get used to living on the moon
We could have the world as our backyard We could get used to the stars and the sun We could get used to anything
You can get used to anything. I just moved over this way a little less than a year ago. I'm adjusting to Southeast slowly. The people here are okay, but the school in general is boring and it doesn't really interest me at all. I don't like the fact that I'm on a block schedule because I don't like sitting in a class for an hour and a half. The basketball games are boring and there isn't a lot of school spirit. The teachers expectations are way too high. Some girls here are snobby and selfish. In high school you're supposed to have a good experience, but so far this experience has been a bad one. Hopefully, the school has my appeal by the time I graduate.
I can get used to anything. I can get used to living in North Carolina. North Carolina is hard to get used to because there are too many highways and it takes forever to get to a Mc Donalds. And plus I moved from New Jersey so it's hard for me to understand what people are saying with their southern accents. In New Jersey it took 10 minutes to get to the nearest mall but down here it takes 20 minutes to get to the nearest Seven Eleven. But once again I can get used to anything, it may be very hard but i will overcome.
Every once and a while my brother can get to me, to the point where I just want to run away from him, but I love him so much that I would not allow that. You see he will bug me until I do what he wants me to do, such as playing his PlayStation. When I come home he will come in my room and annoy me until I will play with him. The thing was that I had homework and I would want to play, but I had to do my homework. It got to where I would do my homework on the bus and I couldn't work with all the noise around me. My mom gave me an ideal to limit the time for homework and let my brother help me study for my test. I thought I could never do it, but I did and now that I'm used to it, it takes all above from my brother, to trying to get my homework done.
You can get used to anything. From the day our species arrived on this earth (be it by evolution or some divine intervention), we have adapted to our surroundings. We hunted and gathered, we cultivated new ways of living, and we adapted to the circumstances that were thrown at us. It isn't really that hard to believe in the human race's ability to become used to things. The question I perpetually ask myself is whether or not this is good. We've come a long way since our caveman days, but we've also become used to our technological developments and luxuries, creating a problem for ourselves. Few are knowledgeable enough that they'd be able to survive some mass collapse of technology. Becoming used to things is dangerous.

All in my backyard
And when I’d look to the sky the stars would be mine
And the earth at my fingertips
I could get used to floating
