OVERAL STATEMENT
Everyone at one point of his/her life needs to make a change.  For several reasons sometimes to have a better lifestyle. There are many positive consequences but also there are some negatives.

PERSONAL OPINION
Our opinion is that sometines it's necessary to move to another place by any reasons eventhough we do not want or it will be hard enough at the beginning but later on you will see that the change was not too bad.

- Moving could be difficult for some people but at the end will be easier and you will see all the good things that you can get because of that. 

FOR ARGUEMENT
When someone chose to move for any reason, or maybe it is neccessary at the beginning can be hard but you need to keep in mind that the sad moments will move out of your life and the good ones will be the result of your whole effort.

AGAINST ARGUEMENT
Life is going to be hard when moving to another city because you are going to leave your family, friends, house, work, etc. Maybe you  feel that it will be the right decision but are you sure that will be worth it? The pain of missing your family and your whole life just for a better lifestyle when you could already have a perfect life.

Everybody in one moment of their life they want to find a person who they love and with who can be yourself. Also getting married has positives and negatives things  but the important thing is that if both of them are happy you can solve all the problems and live happy forever together.

Own personal opinion
In my opinion marrying is one of the most important decisions that is made in life since you are joining your life to another person. Currently 50% of marriages fail because they marry for the wrong reasons. For me the only reason two people should marry is for thw love and you can solve all the problems and live happy forever together.

Summary

If two people are aware of the pros and cons that has a marriage and love each other should marry.

For and Against Argument
Even though the failure rate in marriages is very high if two people love each other and struggle to be together they can solve all their problems to have a happy marriage.

  3. The location of the university sometimes it's so far 
  4. The classes are very stressful for the students.
  5. The teachers can't have the important abilities to teach. 
 
Nowadays the university is an important activity for the people, because we culture says: “You need study the university”, but the teenagers think different, the reasons to leave are reasonably, this is an important topic to discuss.  
 
First of all we think that getting a university education could help you to complete your goals through  your life, Unfortunately, we have on the other hand situations like low economic capacity by the student, so in summary going to college has become a step in your academic life to be a step in your life to reach your goals.
 
In conclusion, go to the university is better to the human improve, and helps to the actual economic situation.
