First lets start with the way drugs effect the brain.  According to the NIDA (National Institute for Drug Education), the brain is made up of many parts which work together to perform specific important  jobs. During drug use, the jobs which are be to performed, are interuped and may not or will not be performed. [...]

Although I haven’t actually implemented the project yet, I have contacted a friend of mine named David Thomas, who is a Xavier graduate. Mr. Thomas is a 2008 graduate who is currently working for Bridge House as a counselor. After dicussing my project with Mr. Thomas,  I was informed that I could work during the Thanksgiving holidays as [...]

I would like to thank everyone who responded to my blog, which explained the drug abuse and drug addiction problems in our community and our country as well. Your comments and suggestions have motivated me to consider being a volunteer with several drug abuse agencies. The agency I’m most familiar with is called “Bridge House.” [...]

Benefit of recycling.
There are many benefits of recycling and using organic products. These environmentally preservationist benefits range from reducing costs, conserving energy, reducing solid waste, decreasing pollution, improving the quality of waste water, reducing pressure on forests and the environmental impacts of commercial forestry, and improving [...]

One of my problems in the world was pollution environment. Pollution is much closer than we think. As we progress deep into the modern world, we make for ourselves an unnaturally dirty place to live in. As we know, pollution is one of our enemies. Factories discharge a huge amount of pollutants daily in the [...]

My program has been to a slow start. Initially, I started off trying to coordinate my project through the M.A.X. Office but I have not heard any responses even though I filled out my application two weeks ago. I had a feeling that my application was not received. The students who were running the office [...]

Since I am not from New Orleans I have only had limited exposure to schools other than universities.

My project has been getting delayed because, like many of you, school itself is overwhelming and we also had midterms that just took place and we were all studying.  I haven’t had the time to look for volunteers, collect or ask for donations, and actually mapping out the whole project and throwing ideas to come [...]

After posting my concerns as a citizen of New Orleans, I received 3 responses, which i greatly apreciate. I probably would have received more responses but most students did not know what my project consisted of; the only knew that my concerns were the drug abuse problem in our communities. Although I did speak of [...]

Thank you to everyone that gave me positive feedback and some advice. I really appreciate it!

In my week two blog I mentioned that one of the most important things to me was children that have no parental guidance, role models or just someone they can look up to. A way that I can help fix this problem is to go to an elementary school or a middle school in the [...]
