Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God

The way the Puritan minister Jonathan Edwards talks about god is really scary. It makes people scared of god because God has the power to kill you at any second. He says many things about the wicked and how if you are wicked God can do anything he wants with you. Like a person is hanging on a thread over hell, and how he has a arrow pointed at you hearty just waiting to be released, how he has a hand covering something that is like water from rushing out and kill you, and also how every time you do something wrong you get heavier and it is God that is holding you up and he can drop you anytime he wants. Basically he is warning people to not do bad things. But I think that is not a good way of convincing people because scaring them is not really letting them decide. They are so scared of God that they think is his really mean. I don't think that God is really that scary and mean also if he is not scary or mean people will have a more relaxed time enjoying life instead of being afraid of doing anything wrong to anger God.

Arrivals... There goes the Neighborhood

I had lived in San Francisco before I came to Chicago. When I was 7 I moved here. I left after 2nd grade and when I got here I started in 3rd grade but I was a year younger than everybody. No, I didn't skip a grade. The school system in San Francisco lets you into school until December but here it is not and since I was born in November In San Francisco I could go to school but here they don't let me. When I got here they at first wouldn't let me go to third grade because I was a year younger than everyone. But since I already been through second grade then I would be repeating a grade so in the end they let me into third grade. But when I started I was the smallest kid in age and size. When I told everyone how old I was they all thought that I had skipped a grade because they didn't know the school systems in San Francisco was different. SO I had to keep explaining over and over to them and it took a long time because they still didn't understand but in the end they did.  

Introduction

My name is Ye Cheng Huang but that is only my Chinese name and I don't like to be called that. Instead I like to be called Justin. I wasn't born in America. I was born in China but I moved here when I was three so I don't really remember much of when I lived in China. I know three languages, fluent in two and still learning one. I am fluent in Cantonese which is my first language and English which is my second, I also know how to speak Mandarin which I have been learning for seven years. I am a very small person because I am not that tall and weigh very little. But I am in very good physical shape so I am very good in sports. I like swimming and running and have gotten awards for both sports. I also like playing the violin and have played for 5 years. I also like building and inventing things. I also like to draw real life objects. I have a very good memory for directions and can remember things like where I put things very long a go or how to get somewhere by imagining it in my head.
