Plagiarism is very serious. It's basically stealing someone else's idea/s and claiming them to be yours. "Plagiarism is an act of fraud." (link) Turning in someone else's work or having someone else do your work for you is plagiarism and should be avoided because it's "stealing".
To avoid plagiarism, you have to give credit where credit is due. If you "paraphrase another's spoken or written words", use "quotations of someone's spoken or written words", use "another person's idea, opinion or theory", you have to cite your source. << Source

the first post
I consider myself an open-minded person, but my deal breakers are if you try to stereotype me because of my religion, or if you try to tell me how to live my life, otherwise I'm pretty comfortable with everything else.
Something i learned from the last person I dated is to be careful and guard your heart because you never know who is going to take it and rip it out of your chest after they've filled it with lies upon more lies. I learned to get to know people more before I put my trust in them.
On Sunday morning at 10 a.m., if I'm not sleeping, which I'm usually not, I'm at church, and I go to a very Southern Baptist church, but is not as stereotypical as most people probably think. When I die, I do believe that I will go to Heaven, and if there's no such thing, then at least i had faith that there was one while i was alive.
Something people keep buying me for gifts that I never use is body wash and body spray because i already have a preference to what I use so I keep using it and just put the other stuff to the side and all it does is pile up and get wasted so I hate when people give me that stuff for a gift.
I have never been an athletic person, and I never ever will be. One sport I definitely will never get is polo, or croquet. I understand the concepts, but I could never play them, probably for the same reason I don't play any other sports - because I'm not coordinated enough.
When I was a kid, I actually owned a three story barbie playhouse and I played with it a lot. I had a very vivid imagination and I still do, which is probably why I'm a little scared of the dark. Not necessarily when I'm in a house, but when I'm outside I get kind of creeped out because of
all the horror movies I have seen.
This has just been a preview of some things in my life, I'm sure there will be more to come.
