Click For A Change
Change.org

Can you change the world with the click of a mouse? Yes, yes you can.

Change.org is the name. It is a website, a powerful tool used by people from every single corner of the world to promote or support just about any cause. How the process works is incredibly simple. However, the impact that it has goes far beyond any simplicity.

This website is a way to help a change take place, to contribute to the world, which sometimes is a hard thing to do. How you stand up to what is fair is just by clicking "sign" and sharing. How much easier can it get? One signature at a time and big things can happen, and yours can be the decisive one.

There are about too-many-to-count petitions going on as you are reading this. The topics range from Animal Rights to Human Trafficking to Criminal justice, etc. There is a topic that will surely attract your attention and make you want to contribute to be part of that cause and make a change.

That is what it is all about: Change. Making your voice count and fight for what is right. When the system fails the people or when the voiceless animals are getting abused, when discrimination is taking place, it is up to you to make justice prevail. If nobody does, then who will?

As the website opens, the trending petitions will show, as well as the possibility to start a petition. There are also some victory cases, such as one of two unjustly imprisoned US citizens arrested in Kuwait, released after the petition reached 172,447 supporters. Here, it is to see that change can happen, only it has to be made.

Take a look at the petition, click on the "read more" link and inform yourself about what is happening in the petition. Sign it if you feel that there is a change that needs to happen. No matter how many signatures there are, your's counts more than you can even imagine. Do not stop there. You have the option of sharing it with your friends and acquaintances through social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter. Then share!

Help make your community, country, and the world a better and fair place to live. Many things need fixing around us, things that are not right and have to have a modification. Change.org is indeed the best place to start.

Join the 147,758,959 people that are already making their voices count. You do not need to go anywhere or to take anything out of your wallet. All that is required is a heart and a sense of righteousness, and the simple click of a mouse. After all, Change.org helps no one else but ourselves because, yes, we are part of the same world.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
