The challenge of the races

By Jennifer Williams

Have you ever wondered why people think the way they do? Well, I have.

The show Survivor this year is based on racial groups. They took four different races and put them in challenges against one another. I think that is pretty cool, but on the other hand, people get upset about it.

Why do they get upset? It’s just a game. Are they scared that their race might not win? I am as white as white can get, and I am pretty sure that the white people will lose. I hope they win, but who cares?

I believe that the oriental people will be successful because, in their country, they are taught, at a young age, good skills to improve their learning abilities. In America, most of the young people couldn’t care less about their skills and abilities.

You don’t see me getting upset because my race might not win. More power to the one that does. It’s really no big deal, and people need to get a grip in life and stop complaining. The game is actually based on one survivor, no matter what race the person is. Only one can win.

So stop complaining, fans, and cheer for your race. May the best person win. I can’t wait to see the rest of the season.
