Is this REALLY a free world?


I feel this is not really a free world, nether the less, a free country.We still have to follow rules and we still have people to rule the lands.But I'll say since the Revolutionary war we have really come along way.During that time after we had defeated the British and gained freedom the 13 colonies feared of another government or ruler having to much power over the states so each state had a certain amount of power.But the Colonies started to go against each other they all came together to choose one leader to rule over the land,an the leader was George Washington.From then till now we still have to follow a certain law,however,this time is better because we don't have one central government.Our government is split into 3 branches.The Executive,Judicial,and Legislative branches.The president is in the Executive Branch,Congress and the House of Reps. are in the Legislative Branch and the Judicial Branch is The Supreme and Federal courts.But back to topic although we have to follow rules,I would have to say we are the most free of countries.

Nothing is free in this world.Nothing,

Darkell:Hi,glad to be back
Interviewer:Now before we start this off,for those of you tuning in Mr.Session here has an exciting reading life(scroll down to see)and today he is here to talk about his writing life.
Darkell:Yes I am.
Interviewer:So,would you like to start?
Darkell:Sure.Well I have always hated writing from the time I learned to the beginning of 8th grade.I thought it took to much time away from having fun playing with my friends.Reading has always been fun but writing gave me cramps in my hands.My mother and teachers always told me the same thing.I need to flex my hand muscles before writing.
Interviewer:May I pause you right there for a moment,What are your hand muscles?
Darkell:I have no idea
Interviewer:Please continue
Darkell:OK.Where was I.Oh yeah,so I said O.k not knowing what that meant I walked away.So once I hit the 8th grade I started to like it because I got to write about what I wanted.Overall 8th grade has changed my writing experience for the better.
Interviewer:Well thanks for sharing that with us .
Darkell:Your welcome.
Interiewer:Hope to see you again.Ladies and Gentlemen Mr.Session

Day 1 with Darkell S.



Interviewer:So please introduce yourself Darkell:I'm Darkell S.
Interviewer:Where are you from?
Darkell:I'm from the NYC
Interviewer:So,Darkell do you like reading?
Darkell:Yes I do.In fact I was one of the top 10 readers in my elementary school.
Interviewer:Can you elaborate more on that?
Darkell:Sure.In elementary school there would be people to walk around the school to look at you while you read and write.Sometimes the would pull you out and ask you to read to them and write 1 paragraph about what you read. When you finished they would give you feedback on how you did.I got pulled out by a lady named Ms.Santiago.She was a Puerto Rican immigrant and boy was she pretty.She took me to a room on the 2nd floor and ask me to pick any book to read.She was nice.To impress her I picked a "Big Boy" book which was a level Z book.When I read the 1st chapter I was surprised that I didn't mess up.She told me to hold on while she told my principal what I just accomplished.Now i had to read to my principal and boy was I scared.I read the 2nd chapter to her an she was so impressed she put on the top 10 readers in the school.
Interviewer:Interesting So,what school did you go to anyway?
Darkell:P.S 243 in bklyn
Interviewer:And how did you feel after this was accomplished?
Darkell:Pretty excited I guess.
Well thank you and please return for Day 2 off your interviewing.
Darkell:I certainly will.
