Broken

Damaged
Broken
I'm working but for how long
The scares are still fresh
People ask what's wrong and you smile and say I'm still alive

It's coming
You can feel it
Hear it
Smell it
Taste it
But you can't see it

Your waiting for it to come and that's the most scariest thing of all
You don't know when it's gonna happen but you know it's gonna happen

It's nibbling at the back of you
It wares you away
All the time your still smiling

It hurts but you can't tell any one
Lets live in a daydream
We know its happening
But you don't want to wake a sleeping dog but this dog ain't sleeping its just playing dead

To explain why people have different views on cosmetic testing on animals? Why is it banned in the EU


To explain why people have different views on cosmetic testing on animals? Why is it banned in the EU




Why people have different views on cosmetic testing on animals:

Animal testing is a phrase that you have heard but maybe you are still unsure of exactly what it actually means. Whether you want call it animal testing, animal experimentation or animal research, it is all the same thing it is the experimentation carried out on animals. It is used to assess the safety and effectiveness of everything from medication to cosmetics, as well as understanding how the human body works.
Some people might say do not test on animals because it is harmful to the animal and it might actually hurt them. Would you like it done to you and the simple answer is no. No-one wants to be tested on and if it did happen it would be against their human rights. Animals do not have rights. So it is an open field on what they can do.
In the 60’s there was a test done on dogs to see the effects of smoking, and the results where shocking. They found out the smoking can lead to cancers , if this did not happen think how many people would be smoking which effects the a whole lot of things such as premature babies, asthma and pollution.
Cosmetics are a product applied to the body, especially the face to improve or change appearance.
The fact of the matter is people like to look nice and smell nice correct me if I’m wrong. I
Medicines are tested on animals before for they are tested on humans for our own safety.
My view on animal testing should be clear by now, if I’m safe and other humans are safe I’m okay. Its a dog eat dog world and I’m not getting eaten survival of the fittest.

Why is it banned in the EU

A Europe wide ban on the use of animals to test cosmetic products has been approved with an overwhelming majority by the European Parliament.It took 10 years of argument, but under the final compromise agreed the European Union will bring in the ban by 2009. Under the exemptions, when products need to be checked for their toxicity or their effect on fertility, animal testing will be allowed to continue until 2013. The cosmetics industry believes that it has been hard done by.It insists that animal testing is by far the best way to test for cancer- and allergy-causing chemicals.

Charlie Blair 1

Charlie Blair

Tell you the truth I don't even know what I'm writing about I don't know if its a biography or a diary .what ever it is ,my writing is coming straight from my head ,some is true others is .... well lets just see how things go enjoy its going to be a bumpy ride full of ups and downs so if you have motion sickness please get off here in fact you've already paid and fastened your seat belt so just sit down.

Hi my name is Charlie no its not it Obi no Obinna but I'm gonna write about Charlie .I'm a teenager and I live in north London . I'm not normal or average . I'm just me typical Charlie nothing extraordinary i have 8 fingers 2 thumbs 2 hands 2 feet 10 toes and 2 feet pretty normal no im not normal no one is normal I'm just Charlie ,this is my tale.

When I was younger I had lots of dream I wanted to become prime minster , a F1 driver, a pop star , bus driver a fashion designer ,I know you may be laughing what a wired set of dreams to have ,but as I got older I lost all sight of that if you ask me what I want to be now ill tell you I want to be a doctor which works at great Ormand street because I like to help people and my brother is disabled and it is something very close to my heart. My heart it's a funny some times it's warm and sweet and knows what to say but at other times its the coldest place in the world and I wish I knew it was that way.

Anyway back to the tale . I DON'T KNOW WHAT I WANT TO BE and I'm fine whit that ill just go with the flow and see where life takes me maybe ill be a multi millionaire or I could still be living at home at the age if 45 who knows.

Why I can't be a pop star - I've been told my voice is not good and I believed the person who said that to me that's why I can't be a star

Why I can't be and F1 diver like Lewis Hamilton -I'm not skinny

Why I can't be prime minster - I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my moth and besides my spelling and English is not the best .

I dreamed a dream of time gone by - Susan Boyle
People use to tell me I was kind , key word USED , I still am it just that in a black and white world true colours show change If you want but everybody grows , my eyes have been opened to see what people and the world are really like its a dog eat dog world survival of the fittest I'm a saviour I'm not gone give up I'm not gone stop Ima work harder.


My name is CHARLIE Of course you already know that ,
For my GCSE options I picked Sociology ,health and social there are only 3 boys in that class including me the rest are girls I think it's a class of 28 I'm not sure ,drama so much fun it's like every thing comes naturally to me, and triple science that's a head banger but its fun my some people said that I shouldn't pick but that made me even more to want to pick it I love to prove people wrong , when ever they say I can't take the T off. I still have to do other subjects like English I'm in 3rd set out of God knows, but I'm proud of my self with that I though I would be way lower.
It's the finally count down.

30th October 2012

I went to rugby today . I took up rugby to lose weight , I'm not that good at other sports cough cough football .

Ok I'm rubbish at football , I don't see the point of kicking a ball around for 90 mins really and they get paid so much doctors go out and save people's lives and footballers kick a ball around and get paid so much , I don't know why I'm complaint thou because if I was earning as much as them I think I would be pretty pleased with my self for a days work.

Money is the route to all evil

I've been playing rugby league for about a year now and iv really enjoyed it ,iv made friends ,I've got a few cuts and bruises but they are all full of memories what doesn't kill you makes you stronger every time don't let em tell you how to live your life - Dappy Rockstar ,YOLO(you only live once) and iv Lost weight whoop.

It's summer holidays I mean half term. and iv finished rugby me and my friend where going home he sees a pack of cigarets he gives them to me I don't know what to do whit them. I took a picture and sent it to my friend I don't smoke she does . In the message it says look what I've found. I had the pack in my hand for about one minute just think why is there one missing , stoptober , the packaging says smoking kills maybe it got to that person. I put it in my bag said bey to my friend and got onto the bus . I kept it in my bag until I got to the start of my road I thought what will parents say if they find it , and my heart skips skips a beat . I decide to throw it away its not like I want to start smoking , I heard someone say once if you smoke you lose your sense of smell (what's the point of having a nose)

When I got home

When I got home there was a strange smell , put my bag down on the chair and I walked closer. My 2 brothers where in the sitting room . My anti was at home with my 2 year old sleeping cousin. I still could smell something ,then I saw the paint. PAINT of course my mummy and daddy (I don't like to call my parents any thing else it feels weird in my mouth almost unnatural).

My mummy and daddy wanted to paint the house up for Christmas , which I thought was a pretty good Idea.

Our house the middle of our street. Our house is the place everyone comes to at Christmas , it fills the house whit in more love,children running about laughing babies on the floor crawling ,everyone is just happy whit a care in the world . This is the day that The Lord has made I will rejoice and be glad in him - that's a song we sing at my church .



Half term homework

Can you believe it I got homework for half term HOLIDAY . Maths which I kind of normal since I'm in first set but tutor homework this is the first time I've heard of this. I've got a new forum tutor my old one has gone on maternity leave ,so I was given a new one. Before I even came into the school I already had an idea of what he would be like I though he would be grumpy , never smiling , mean ,but I had all these ideas before I had even met him ,I always say don't judge a book by its cover but that's exactly what I did and I felt bad.

So I lost All ideas I had about him , and tried to be positive about him maybe he'll be nice maybe not let's see how it goes . Okay iv been in his form for 8 weeks now and I can say he is HUMAN he changes mood like we do,sometimes he has good days and some times he just well being HUMAN.

Do you know I've just noticed something I love to go off topic like I say one thing then it leads me to something else then then that leads me to something else like now I was talking about homework and I've ended up here.

Anyway the homework from my form tutor was to read to broad sheet news paper articles a day and so far I have an outstanding wait for it DRUM ROLL PLEAES drrrrrrrrrrr 0 articles . What am I going to do , well alls well that ends well .


2 November 2012

This tale is starting to look more like a diary hmmmmm. My whole house was being painted this week,I've had so much wet paint on my hands but on the upside I've gone away for the weekend to Dorset ,but I'm kinda scared because there has been a lot of talk of flooding in the south the south of England , the media has a way of making people and things sound worse than they actually are . I found a very inspiring poem by a young poet by the name of Obinna Okoro online , it's about the portrayal of youths by the media here's how it goes.
It's called stereotype me if you like

They say I'm worthless
stereotype me if you like

They give me all sorts of names
chav, yob ,young offender and many more
so tell me I'm worthless
stereotype me if you like

I'm seen as low achiever
even thou I'm the top of the class
so give me all sorts of names
tell me I'm worthless
stereotype me if you like

they think ill get pregnant at the age of 14
so see me as a low achiever
give me all sorts of names
tell me I'm worthless
stereotype me if you like

the media sees me as a drug addict
even thou iv never tried any in my life
so tell me ill get pregnant young
see me as a low achiever
give me all sorts of names
tell me I'm worthless
stereotype me if you like

They see me as
So tell me I'm a drug addict
Tell ill get pregnant young
Tell me I'm a low achiever
Give me all sorts of names
Tell me I'm worth less
Stereotype me if you like

lately iv giving up all hope of trying
to be seen as someone special
tell me I'm a drug addict
tell me ill get pregnant young
see me as a low achiever
call me all sorts of names
tell me I am worthless because at this time I think I am
stereotype me if you like



If your down here you've read my hole poem ,thank you.

This poem is about how the media
Stereotypes youths
Only concentrates on they bad which they do


How inspirational if I do say so my self . If found this on his blog



What if it floods and it turns my caravan into a boat that wound be so much fun, but how would we steer , we would just be floating , in the power of the wind that would be scary and fun.


To be continued

I've got 330 followers on twitter now. I gained like 80 over night . Even if you have one follower your making an impact on someone's life , except if you made an account and followed your self,which is just sad.

I cry

I'm crying
The tears are coming down my check
I shout but you don't hear a peep
I make mistakes
I'm not perfect but who is

I can't let you see me crying
Or what would you think
You won't give me a shoulder to lean on like they do in films
You push me away to the point where every single thing I do hurts

A boys cry is sad
Comes from the heart
A part you wouldn't think I have
It hurts
With every tear there's a word that goes with it a person a name the reason for that tear

I try to be strong but it's too much
To take
My heart hurts
I see you smiling but I can't
The worst part is when I do this you act like you don't care and I want to cry even more

But when I cry my self to sleep
I wake up and say this is gonna be new day
I put on a new face and I walk out the door

I don't turn back never turn back leave the past behind but it always catches up with you
It could be hiding behind the next turn
It's always there just open your eyes and you'll see it it never goes away

The only way to get rid of is to talk to it
So with the mucus running from your nose you tell it how you feel you think it's gonna give you a warm hug but it knocks you out for the count


Your out your trapped no hears cares or listens but the all see it
