                                                                       Walk Away      
   I heard this song when I was growing up. After buying an old album of Kelly Clarkson’s songs I stumbled upon this one. Walk Away by Kelly Clarkson is an intense loud song. The song is mainly about how there are problems in relationships and sometimes you just have to walk away. Maybe the answers to problems are to walk away.
        “you think im stupid but the truth is that its cupid, baby loving you has made me this way, so if you don’t have an answer, why are you still standing here… just walk away” this lyric in the song shows me that love can make you think in ways that people can take advantage of. It also means that the guy in the relationship should just walk away too cause it isn’t worth it. “So before you start defending baby stop all your pretending” this means the guy isn’t as innocent as he is. Hes just trying to make her think he’s innocent when he’s defending himself. These quotes mean that if you don’t have anything to say then you should just leave.
         The song is meaningful with relationship problems. It also makes time fly by fast. I like it because the song tells me I have a choice to stay or leave. In my opinion the song means that people do have a choice. I thought the song was rhythmic and soothing.
                                                                   "Walk Away"

You've got your mother and your brother
Every other undercover
Tellin' you what to say (say)
You think I'm stupid
But the truth is
That it's cupid, baby
Lovin' you has made me this way
So before you point your finger
Get your hands off of my trigger
Oh yeah
You need to know this situation's getting old
And now the more you talk
The less I can take, oh

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away

I waited here for you
Like a kid waiting after school
So tell me how come you never showed (showed)?
I gave you everything
And never asked for anything
And look at me
I'm all alone (alone)
So, before you start defendin'
Baby, stop all your pretendin'
I know you know I know
So what's the point in being slow
Let's get the show on the road today
Hey

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away
Just walk away
Just walk away

I wanna love
I want a fire
To feel the burn
My desires
I wanna man by my side
Not a boy who runs and hides
Are you gonna fight for me?
Die for me?
Live and breathe for me?
Do you care for me?
'Cause if you don't then just leave

I'm looking for attention
Not another question
Should you stay or should you go?
Well, if you don't have the answer
Why are you still standin' here?
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Just walk away

If you don't have the answer
Walk away
Just walk (walk) away
(Just walk away)
Then just leave
Yeah yeah
Walk away
Walk away
Walk away

                                              Horse meat found in hamburgers
     People discovered that there have been horse and pig meat tainting hamburgers in Britain and Ireland. Even though the hamburgers pose no threat to people it has been taken off shelves. 29% of the burger contained horse meat. The author makes it sound dramatic and draws the reader in. “this raises concern in relations to the traceability of meat ingredients and products entering the food chain” this phase from the article means that the Irish authority tried to raise concerns of the reader and those people affected by it.
     9 out 10 burger samples have been found to have low content horse meat. The author made it sound like that even if it contains horsemeat it has small amounts of horsemeat it shows that it’s still a big number and outrage. Pig and horsemeat are contained in some burgers in Ireland or Britain. There is no clue of how the tainted meat got there.
     I feel that the author put people’s opinions because he wanted the reader to see how people were affected by the contaminated burgers. Tesco one of the pulling all their tainted meat off the shelves for further inspections. Different kinds of meat have been in the same processing in plants. But there was no explanation of how it got there. I think people should be more careful with what their eating or cleaning.

The Statistical Probability of Love At First Sight
          The main character Hadley realizes love at first sight is possible. She’s late for her father’s second wedding, who knew missing four minutes of her flight would change her life forever. She meets this boy named Oliver and falls for him. I think love at first sight is possible but unexpected. It’s absurd and it gets me wondering if Hadley picked the right guy.
         When I read this book, I felt lost at how someone like Hadley could fall for someone within 4 minutes. According to me love is the most confusing and weirdest thing. Love should be unexpected at times. But Hadley learns more about Oliver. To her, he seems polite and intriguing.
         When Hadley heads to her dad’s wedding to her new stepmom, she realizes that she has to see Oliver again. I think this proves that he means something to her. I feel that Hadley should loosen up and open her eyes to what’s around her. I find it weird that Hadley and Oliver have a connection made within 4 minutes. Im my opinion love is not supposed to make sense or be normal but it’s unique.
