Ashley G.
My life today is fun. I have great friends who go to parties with me every week. Yet in this life there are many hard struggles. Some hard struggles of life are the poor trying to get their kids a good education. Some other struggles are people losing their homes, jobs, and families because they can't pay for bills and because they can't pay for their kids to go to school.
Right now I am getting a good education. I am getting all A's and B's. You have to be tough to survive in this world. If you are not tough in this world people will take an advantage of you.
When I get older I am going to be living with my kids and my husband. I hope to be a rich nurse, teacher, or a lawyer. Being a nurse, teacher or lawyer will make my struggles easier because I will have the money to take care of things. I also want to live in a big white mansion. I hope to have a very cute, smart and loyal boyfriend. I want to have two children, a boy and a girl.
In this world today life is hard for some women. Some women are in relationships that they don't want to be in. Most women are forced into a relationship. Some people can look in the newspapers right now, and see how many women have been killed because of the men that they've been with. I hope that soon in this world there will be more laws that will protect women from getting hurt from their boyfriends and their husbands.
I'm trying to be a successful woman when I grow up. I want to be rich so I could take care of my family. That’s how I want my life to be in the year 2015.

My name is Ashley. I live in a world of hatred, war, and shooting. I wish we could live in a world of peace, and diversity. Everyone has their differences. What I would do for the world if I become a lawyer is make sure people are treated fairly. I would also enforce and make the cops stronger through the law.
When I’m grown I hope to be able to make a difference in the world. I will teach children to go to school and be the best they can be. I will also make sure my family and the whole world has a nice place to live. I will travel all over the world to stop world hunger and poverty. As I watch the commercials on TV, I start to say when I grow up I will stop this madness and children will be happy.
My mom and my dad tell me I can do anything I want to. Living with both of my parents makes me think everyday what will happen if they get a divorce. My mom assures me that they will never get a divorce. My dream is to be a lawyer, but President Bush is trying to go to war. I'm hoping that we don't go to war, so that my dream can come true.
Making people happy is what I live for. I might change my mind about being a lawyer but as of today, when I grow up I am going to make people happy.

My life is good right now and I get the proper education. I get proper food and I get my check-ups. Also my mom has a good job. She has enough money to get me in a good school. I think my life is very good because I have a good family and home that supports me in almost every way.
I love my family and they love me. I think I have a good teacher this year. In the year 2015, I expect the community to be more advanced, environmentally safe and wise. I think in the future there will be more countries with schools getting the right education. I think there will be more food for children in the future. I think there will be jobs for homeless people and homes built for them. I think there will be fewer drugs, less abuse, and less lying - then the community will advance and be wise.

Carl G.
My name is Carl. My life today is like a world gone crazy. There are so many things wrong with the people in the world today. There is terrorism and there are so many people who are still upset from the tragic events of 9/11. We also have a threat of war. So many people are scared to go places. Some are scared to get on planes, some are scared to hear a plane fly near the ground or even be within hearing range of a plane. They start wondering about what is about to happen.
Some things don’t make life any better, like the sniper. Even though he is locked up, he still has people staying in their houses and not leaving. There are some things I expect from my community. One is to not be afraid. That is exactly what those thoughtless people want you to think. People of America can’t be afraid of the things the terrorists did to us. They are trying to tear America apart and they are succeeding.
In time I hope that people will learn to keep the world together and to not get crazy. Another thing I expect from America is to be more protective. In the year 2015, I will be 26. Hopefully I will be a lawyer with a wife and kids. I will be a very successful man with lots of money. I will try to be a peace worker to try and make the world a safer place for humans and animals.
I will try to be just like Martin Luther King. He was a great man and he worked for peace. Even when a riot broke out he did exactly what he was taught to do and that is to be a peace worker. Even when they arrested him for what he believed in, he did not use violence. In 2015 the world will be a safer place for everyone because of the peace work kids do today.

"Oh I can’t wait till I'm grown and living by my self." I said. It's hard being a pre-teen, but I heard it's even harder to pay bills and worry about protecting yourself from getting shot. When I'm in my 20's I will try my best to be cute and get a good job. I hope to get the opportunity to be a lawyer.
I also hope to have a cute and loyal boyfriend. When I am my 20's, I going to live it up. From my job I hope to get paid a lot and own a mansion. I only want one child and give that one everything. I want everything in my life to go perfect. Even though I know that’s not going to happen all the way.
I am trying my best now to keep up my grades and help out my friends and the ones I love most, my family especially my big brother, Papoose. My brother is 21 and is the most important person in my life because I can tell him everything. I love my brother and my family and even myself! I am working on my life now so I can have a better future.

Daniel G.
My name is Daniel and the world around me is a shame. People killing people like hungry animals. Philadelphia is supposed to be the city of brotherly love and yet we hate. On September 11, 2001, terrorists attacked. I hope that never happens when I grow up and have kids. I do not want them to go through what I went through.
We need to stop the killing and increase the peace in the world. Now people are afraid to get on aeroplanes because of the terrorist attacks. It seems like people hate America. We have to face this. People are afraid to leave their homes because of terrorist attacks. The terrorists attempted to change America and they succeeded in the attempt, but we must keep hope alive.
People should not kill other people. I hope that by the time I grow up fewer bad things will happen.

I would like for people to not abuse kids, and not to do drugs. This would make life easier for cops, and people who protect the city. I would like life to be better by people not abusing children, women, and men. Life in 2015, I feel is going to be really fun as I will be an adult. I will grow up to be an astronaut, or basketball player.
I’m going to have a lot of money, a wife, and two children. In life I will not do drugs or smoke. What I will do is follow God and the right things. When I am about forty, I will run for president. My life is not going to be harsh, poor, or boring. I will not show up on the news for shooting a gun or for abusing a woman.
When I am an astronaut, I will try to find cures for aids, diabetes and other illnesses that people suffer from, and are not curable now. If people have disabilities, or want to get over problems, and can’t, they will come to "For Your Heath". This is a place that I will create; it will be the most successful job in the world. It will help me with my life, and get me to where I want to be.

In life now things are not going too well. People are getting killed - even children. I hope that in the year of 2015 everything will get better. In 2015 I will be the age of 26. Then I will be old enough to be able to vote. I will vote for someone who will make the world better.
In the year of 2015 I want to become a doctor or a lawyer. I want to become a doctor to help people who need help. I want to become a lawyer to help people fight for their equal rights.
Before I decide on a job, I want to go to college and get my diploma.
When I get out of college I will work so I can raise money to buy myself a house and a car. When I raise more than enough money I will loan some money to shelters and the poor so that children will not be killed anymore

In the year 2026, I will have a nice house with a big yard and a nice battery powered car. A nice house is a house with lights that come on soon as you walk into the room. I will have a nice family with nice things. Nice things are household appliances. Stuff like a toothbrush that has the toothpaste in it and that can cut your hair at the same time will be in my house, and a CD player that you put at least 30 CDs in. The player changes the CDs itself. A computer that all you will have to do is say what you want it to do, or where you want to go, and it will take you there. These are things I hope to have in 2026.

I can't wait for the time when I can have my own house with my wife and my two kids. To be the richest man on earth and to support my family is my dream. I want to be a young black man who can have money and not have it by selling drugs. Being rich and famous is not every thing you need; you need to provide for your family. There are too many black males who have many kids but they cannot pay for their children. I wish the world would be a place where I can support a family.
