letter of complaint

15th February 2010

Dear governor,
I am writing with regard to an article that appeared in the newspaper recently. The article shows how African-Americans are treated in our society nowadays. Because people around them ignored them or blame them for things they had not done. This article claimed that African-Americans are thieves. I strongly disagree with this point of view.
First of all, in modern times everyone should be treated the same way. There should not be discrimination because of a persons skin color or a persons nationality. Till I've read this article a believed I felt like an American, but now I have second thought about the politics of our state.
Secondly, I want to advise you that there has to be an amendment very soon. Also politics should emanate that they are open for everything. There would not be a future for our nation if there is no change. African-Americans are very important for our nation and economy, so why should they be treated in another way?
Finally, I want to affirm once again how important it is that everyone is accepted in this day and age.

I look forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Ines Peter

Style! – Influence of fashion & clothes

Are you one of those people who are always fashionable dressed? What do you think about style and fashion, about the importance of tidy dressing? How would life be if everyone would have an identical style? It’s impossible to know, but of course life will change if everyone looks the same.

Look at this woman. She looks like she hasn’t slept for years. Her hair is uncombed, greasy and dull, also her skin is greasy and blemish. She’s wearing an old jeans and a dateless jersey which do not fit. It seems as she hasn’t even heard from something like eye shadow or make-up. Her untidy looking expresses a foolish and dumb person who isn’t interested on her fellow men.

Now, think about this woman with a totally new style. Visualize her with redyed, curly, shoulder-length hair. Her eyes are lifted out with eye shadow and mascara; her lips are bright because of a new red lip gloss. She’s wearing a black ladies’ suit with high heels and a trench coat. With this outfit she would look like a elegant, good-looking woman who is self confident, sociable and ambitious.
In my opinion this example illustrates the importance of fashion. “Fine feathers make fine birds.” The first impression of one’s person is the most important moment in everyday’s life.
