The effect of drugs on the mind & body

Hello people, today's blog post is about the effect of drugs on the mind and body, Surprise at the end.

Marijuana, weed, pot, dope, grass. They’re different names for the same drug that comes from the cannabis plant. You can smoke it, vape it, drink it, or eat it. Most folks use marijuana for pleasure and recreation. Regardless of the number of people living in a dwelling, no more than 12 plants can be grown per residence. The plants must also be grown and stored safely in an enclosed area, which only authorized adults can access. Individuals will be allowed to carry only 14-grams of dried cannabis in a public space. The 14-gram rule applies to the amount of cannabis an individual is allowed to purchase in a day. 


Who is involved…


A Lot of people smoke Cannabis and a lot of them are 16 and older. According to the United Nations, 158.8 million people around the world use marijuana which is more than 3.8% of the planet's population.


What are the laws and penalties?


The maximum penalty for possession of cannabis is imprisonment for a term not exceeding three months or a $500 fine.


What are the positive and negative outcomes?


A positive of smoking Cannabis is that Cannabis contains Cannabidiol (CBD) which is a chemical that impacts the brain, making it function better.


Another positive


The main psychoactive ingredient, THC, stimulates the part of your brain that responds to pleasure, like food. That unleashes a chemical called dopamine, which gives you a euphoric, relaxed feeling.


A negative effect 


If you vape or smoke weed, the THC could get into your bloodstream quickly enough for you to get your high in seconds or minutes. The THC level usually peaks in about 30 minutes, and its effects may wear off in 1-3 hours. If you drink or eat pot, it may take many hours for you to fully sober up.


The thing that influences people to do drugs is their friends, family members, and other people they know.



3 Strategies to get of it:

One: Going cold turkey basically what you do is lock yourself away and game or sleep but make sure you can't get out but people can get in so you can still eat and go to the bathroom.




Two: Slowly stop smoking as much as you normally would.


Three: Go to rehab

Term 2 Reflection

Hello, today I am talking about my term 2 reflection.

My highlights from term 2. One of my highlights is making the bullet train in the S.T.E.A.M projects the only downside is that we weren't able to make it move because there wasn't enough time and because we just weren't allowed, it would have been cool to be able to make it move.

The challenge was making the bullet train because we didn't know how to start off but I was away sick and my group/Jayden starting gluing cardboard together and it turned out great, I did help out with the rest of the bullet train.

My option subjects were Metalwork, Woodwork, and Art. In Metalwork, I learned how to make a dog tag, In Woodwork, I learned how to make a trey, In Art, I learned how to shade different things in.

Hope you enjoyed reading this blog post you probably didn't even read it but a teacher might have, Bye.

Term 1 Reflection

 Hi bloggers, 

Today's blog post is about my term 1 reflection.

In term 1 my highlight was probably just hanging out with friends. My favorite subject was woodwork because we made some cool things in there like, my least favorite subject was probably metalwork because we didn't do anything with metal because it started turning into a digital tech. the hardest thing was getting used to going to sleep early and getting up early in the morning. Things I want to do in term 2 is to get better at painting/drawing because I'm not too good at it.

Hope you enjoyed this short little blog post, Goodbye.

Hands in icy water!!!

Hi blogger,

Today's blog post is about hands in icy water. Hands in icy water means putting your hands in icy water then warm water.

So in science Ethan and I had to put our hands in icy cold water then warm water it didn't really feel like anything special just normal old water. We put our hands in hot water then warm water and it just felt the same so this experiment was for nothing.

Hope you enjoyed this blog post even knowing it isn't that long. Have you ever tried to do an experiment that didn't work?

Have a Merry Christmas!!!

Protests Activities

 Hi bloggers,

Today's blog post is about protests, if you don't know what protests are they are big groups of people that hold posters up in the air of something they don't want to happen and they also keep yelling out something. 

1. What are some interesting facts about protests.

Protests were formed by a bunch of people to save our native forest, Rivers, Lakes and endangered species. The biggest environmental protest was in 2003 called the Ge-Free Marches. Some protests course riots and for stores to constantly get robbed and store windows to get smashed. 

2. What I learned.

I never use to know that some protests course store to get robbed and windows to get smashed I thought that all protests were peaceful but no some course riots. I learned that not everyone liked some protests so they formed anti protests to stop those protests.

3. My opinion.

In my opinion, I say that not all protests are right and not all of the protests are wrong, I say that no matter what the protest is about you support them in it unless it's a riot or a store robbing protest only join the calm ones.

Woman's Suffrage.

FOR MORE THAN 70 YEARS, the women’s suffrage movement in the United States fought for women’s right to vote. The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States. Yet while suffrage leader Carrie Chapman Catt affirmed, in her 1923 book Woman Suffrage and Politics, that the suffragists had made an “unmistakable popular demand for a just cause,” she admitted in a private letter that only about a third of American women supported suffrage, while another third opposed it, and the rest essentially didn’t care.


Hope you enjoyed this blog post I didn't really enjoy making it but hopefully, it's good enough for you. What was your favorite piece of information?
