Read the excerpt from "Healthy Eating."

It may be an old adage, but it's a goody: you are what you eat. It's also when you eat and how much you eat. And while we can all sympathize with the need to have things fast and easy in our busy lives, nutritionists say eating well is actually not that hard. It just takes planning and, some would say, a little help from the village.

What a to-do to die today, at a minute or two to two;
a thing distinctly hard to say, but harder still to do.
We'll beat a tattoo, at twenty to two
a rat-tat-tat- tat-tat-tat- tat-tat-tattoo
and the dragon will come when he hears the drum
at a minute or two to two today, at a minute or two to two.

Can someone put this in essay format? I don't know what essay format looks like ;n;

Having to be at school by 7:30 or 7:00 in the morning eventually turns teens and kids into zombies, and not in a healthy way. Most days, kids, especially teens, come home with loads of homework, causing them to go to bed late, leaving them with only a few hours of sleep. Early times such as these can also cause stress, which can lead to loss of sleep too. This means that kids and teens still have to get up early in the morning and sit through hours of learning with only a few hours of sleep. This can be extremely harmful to teens' health and grades. With this being said, later times such as 8:00, 8:30, or maybe even 9:00 would be a better option considering the health and standards of teens and kids. The reason for this is because schools always start in the mornings, and some teens can barely wake up for this movement, so they fall asleep when set to do work and tasks. Every school thinks that they can keep their kids awake by starting maybe an hour later than Elementary schools, well truthfully they're wrong. Many teens always stay up late, and nothing is going to stop them from it because they want to go to sleep when they feel like it is not a set time. The reason the kids that are falling asleep and not doing no work are called zombies. In our view, they are always "moaning" and are always looking tired and acting tired. Kids at school with barely any rest act and sometimes look the same exact way.

(my paragraph)

The jellyfish are overpopulating our oceans. Some species of jellyfish can release up to 40,000 eggs daily! That is how swarms turn into blooms. When jellyfish numbers are out of control, that’s when they are called blooms. According to the Columbia University website,” Jellyfish blooms disrupt the fishing industry by tearing nets and harming fish. Smaller jellyfish or jellyfish tentacles can enter aquaculture pens and suffocate the fish surrounding the jellyfish. Jellyfish sting swimmers, discouraging tourism. They clog cooling water intakes at power plants, causing power reductions or shutdowns.” These are some bad problems that need solutions.

When it is finally ours, this freedom, this liberty, this beautiful

when it is truly instinct, brain matter, diastole, systole,
5 reflex action; when it is finally won; when it is more

this man, this Douglass, this former slave, this Negro
beaten to his knees, exiled, visioning a world
where none is lonely, none hunted, alien,

not with legends and poems and wreaths of bronze alone,
but with the lives grown out of his life, the lives
fleshing his dream of the beautiful, needful thing.
