"I would make make the world a
better place by starting out with small things in
my community, like saving the resources, then I would
help in bigger ways like inspiring others to stop
smoking, drinking, and causing fights. I just wish
that the world would be as safe as decades ago. Earlier,
you could leave your doors open, and nobody would
rob you. Everybody, try to help your community by
inspiring others, too."

cleaned their own mess up it would be clean and look
better, but all I can do is pick up my own things
and that is one step better! I also can brighten up
someone's day by smiling at them walking by. Listening
to what others have to say is important too - if someone
brings up a topic, don't interupt, listen - they might
have a point just like the next topic i have. Being
nice to one another - it just makes everyone equal
feeling wise. Being mean to someone makes you no better
then them if they make fun of you first. If everyone
was just nice to eachother no one would feel bad or
angry and then they wouldn't do bad or bizare things
to people who had nothing to do with them."

"My idea of making our planet a
better place is to make people more informed on the
everyday bullying that goes on in every school. I
decided today thanks to the words of my parents to
start a club at school who does just that - inform
people about the bullies who once lived in your school.
But i won't stop there. Now I've decided to make a
club that keeps our children that go to our school
and others away from drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes.
Influencing the people around you is a good way to
start making the decision of not taking drugs and
other things that can ruin their lives.
3 years ago i read a book that concerned
me about our planet, it read about how everyday we
pollute our air, litter and destroy our once naturally
beautiful land into a garbage dump. I started a club
called earth helpers that started with 5 people and
some hope. We would go around our school and pick
up any garbage that Loiterers throw on our earth.
Once that started with 5 students ended with 20! That
just goes to show any kid can change the world with
a little hope. Now I have decided to go to the Nursing
home every once in awhile. "The ones who help
the ones in need live longer." I decided to start
after reading a story that influences on that in Chicken
Soup for the Kids Soul. Every kid can make a difference,
just believe you can and you can do anything."

"I would like to help poor people. I would invent a
place that people could stay. The people would not have
to pay for anything. They would have rooms and places
for their kids to go and play. The place could help
them get a job until they get enough money to buy a
house they could stay there."

"I would make a computer like chip that is implanted
in everybody's neck as a baby or something. If something
was wrong with the mind, like an onset of depression
or the beginnings of another mental illness, the chip
would notify the parent or school so that that child
could get the help he or she needs. If it just notified
the child, things might not get done. This would help
prevent suicide and tragedies like the shooting in Littleton,
Colorado. It would have to notify the parents and teachers
or something incase the parents didn't care that their
child was in trouble."

"People need to respect our plants and flowers. Trees:
Trees give us oxygen and if it wasn't for trees we woulden't
be able to breath.People are cutting trees down and
not replacing them with seeds for another tree to grow
in place of the tree that has been cut down."

"I think what would make the world a better place would
be if we tried our hardest to improve on youth violence
and gang violence and just violence period. Another
thing that would help make the world a better place
is if we could make the schools have better test scores.
No state should be better than another in test scores
or school activities."

"To make the world a better place I will keep it clean
it will have beautiful grass. The ground will never
have no holes or bad things written on the ground. There
even won't be drugs spread around. But most all people
who in jail will have to be died. I don't mean no harm
but that's how my things will have to be for all the
good people who is doing good. Well as you can see I
want my world to be safe and better place. Thank you.

"I can build a non-violent machine. The machine will
take all the violence out the person in less than two
hours. How it's going to work is that the person steps
in that did something violent and gets to look at the
future and the past, and if that doesn't change that
person then the violent machine takes the vilolence
out of them. The machine will be in every prison and
jail. That would be my invention to change the world."

everyone stay off drugs and keep everyone out the street
and send every child to school and make sure every child
is eating good at their homes and every weekend I will
get all of the children and their parents to come out
somewhere and have a speech with them and their children
and every child is treated right..."

"I think the world could be a better place if everyone
would chip in and do their part in the community. If
everyone would be a little nicer to one another and
stop worrying about what kinds of clothes they are wearing.
If the world was coming to an end everyone would work
together so it wouldn't. People need to get rid of the
negative attitudes. The world would be a much better
place if everyone could act in the ways of christ. They
wouldn't have to be perfect because none is perfect.
But that is just how I feel. Many other people many
feel very very differnt but that is what I think."

"What I think that we can do to make the world a better
place is to get more trained police out in the work
force that will help a little on some of the crimes
that are taking place in the world. Also another big
issue is the number of hate crimes that we have in the
world. That is what i think will make the world a better
place. "

"My idea for making the world a better place: If I
could explore the world, I would learn some other kinds
of dancing from other cultures besides mine. I'm half
caucasion & half filipino. I have tried my own culture
dance called tiniklin. It's with 3 or 4 people, two
of them holding bamboo sticks, stomping them on the
cement boards and 1 or 2 persons dancing in between
the bamboo sticks without getting their legs pinched
in between the sticks. Very entertaining and can get
very fast pace too. Also, I've tried country line dancing.
I have watched many other kinds of dancing. My most
recent one would be last year on Martin Luther King
day. I went to an Indian Reservation to do some volunteer
work for the day with my mom. I got to watch some traditional
Indian Dancing. Pretty interesting, my mom wants me
to take hula dancing too. But, I want to learn so many
different ones too."
