Write a blog post where you explain whether or not you think the United States should or should not get involved in other countries affairs.

To me I think none of the war should of go on. Like now we fighting in Iraq for nothing. Our people over there dyeing everyday. Families not doing to good because their families are fighting for their country, they do not know if they are going to be alive or dead. But I am thankful that my cousin came home safe but I don’t know about my other cousin boyfriend going to be when he comes home. The war should just end now for the 2009 year, we been in this for too long.

Is it ok to get involved on other people's business?

I don’t think its ok but I have got in my mom’s but as I grew up I though that it’s not ok, because I don’t want my mom in my business. But every time my mom talk I would try to lesson to what she is talking bout. But the only time it’s ok to get in someone business it when someone talking bout killing someone or robbing anything that has to do with something that will get them in jail. People should mind their own business all the time. They don’t need to be in people business all the time. Really they don’t need to mind their own business all the time till they here something going wrong.

Looking at the people getting their leg amputated

This is sick to see the people get their legs cut off
This is not understandable why they do this
This is not easy to look at
My bread basket is turned up side down

You hear people screaming
It looks like the peoples brains are going to pop out
It sounds like when you step on something and it cracks
People crying

Blood is going everywhere
They do not cover it up
It is like people do not even care
People’s face turns red


You don’t smell anything too much
But when the legs and the blood sit there for a minute then it starts to smell
It smells like raw fish
It smells like a dead person

I do not like seeing this
It’s like one day you can walk but the next day you can not walk because it got cut off
I would not like to see this up close
If I was there I would cry because I would feel the pain they going through

Looking at the people dying

This is the most bloody seen that the woods have ever seen
The woods would think that this is so bad
This should not be happening to our people
This is not what they should be going through

This is hard to listen to
Everything is happening to fast
The sounds of the hornets are very loud
It sounds like a big huge bomb

It smells like a skunk sprayed somebody
It smells like a dog done did number 2
It smells like they have been sitting here for some years
I do not like this smell

People are getting killed
Something you do not want to look at
Something you could not stand looking at
It is sad to look at something like this

I think this a bad thing to look at
The people do not deserve to die like this
This war should not have taken place at all
The people should feel bad about everything they did

Is it all about the money?

Are people actions driven by money?
Does money lead to happiness?
Are the people that have money any better than those that don't?
How do the wealthy get their money? Was it their work or others work that makes them rich?
Is it the responsibility of those that have money to share with others?
Well I do think it is all about money because you don’t get anything for free. I thank that people are driven by money because they think that money is their world. To some people it does lead to happiness but some people is not satisfied with what they have. I don’t think no body is better than anybody they might think so but I do not. I think they get their money by check in their hank I don’t know. I think it is their work that gets them rich. They don’t have to share their money but if they do then they should help the hungry and the homeless people.

Think about a time when you were involved in a fight, either verbal or physical.

Think about a time when you were involved in a fight, either verbal or physical.

What led up to the fight
Whether or not your tried to avoid the fight and how
The events of the fight
The outcome of the fight
Did the fight improve or hurt your relationship with that person?
Any lesson(s) you learned from the fight


Well I was just in a fight my 11th grade year when I started Clarke Central high school. I was trying to be the big one about it and not fight them because they were in the 9th grade girls and an 11th grade boy. Well they wanted to act like some little kids and through paper and change. And I let them know we not any little kids her we are in high school and we need to be grown about what we do. I tried not to fight them by talking to them but that did not help they did not want to here it at all. It was 5 of them and 3 of us fighting. Well my sister a real friend and I won the fight. It was not really a friendship involved we did not really talk the only thing was hey and bye thing that’s the only thing. Well they learned their lesson not to be all big and bad about everything it’s a time for everything, but it was not too much of a lesson to learn from it.

How can growing up be both exciting and painful?

Well growing up can be exciting because you learn a lot of things like from a baby you learn how to say mama and daddy. When you learn that the next step is to learn how to crawl then walk. You start school when you young and learn more from their. Then you get older and get in high school bout to graduate and look back at the things that was exciting to you and you see what it made you to be. Life can also be painful because you got a lot of responsibly to look forward to. You have to pay bills, work, try to keep yourself up all at the same time. There will be no mama and daddy to help you with your bills, its all on you!

The Rights of the Colonists

- What did you learn about life during the revolutionary era from reading this document?
Back then their lives was not as easy as our lives are today. They had to focus more on the war. They did not know if they was going to be alive and to come home to their families.

- What surprised you the most about what you read?
That they have a right to demand and insist upon the performance of such conditions and previous limitations as form an equitable original compact.

List five purposes of the government.

List five purposes of the government.

Would you be willing to join a revolution if our government was not fulfilling the purposes of government you listed above? Why? Why not?

defense
national identity
representation
social welfare
infrastructure

No, I would not be willing to join the revolution becaouse you do not know what the war going to be about. You don't know when you going to die, or who you going to die in front of. You could die in frount of a family member and they might kill themself becouse u died in frount of them.

Childhood

This story is about a girl family was taken from her when she was young. It took place in South Carolina. The war that was going on around that time was the Revolutionary War. The girl did not know she was a slave till she was 6-years-old. She had a 2-year-old brother and other brothers and sisters that were older. The girl grandmother had three children, they all moved to St. Augustine. They did not get paid a lot of money on their job. But the people were getting paid a lot of money for separating the slave from their family. All they believe was they were going to get out of this one day, and god.

u.s. history #2 class work

Thousands of Europeans chose to move to the British colonies. Some for economic reasons and some for freedoms. If you decided to immigrate somewhere, would you move for economic reasons or for freedom?

I would move for freedom reason because some countries do not have the right to do what that want to do that have to go by rules. Their masters might kill them just because and so that mean they might not have any freedom at all. Why would you want to stay some where that do not have no freedom and when you know somewhere that do have freedom? I would not want to live some where that have a lot of killing and other things going on.

u.s history #1 question

What motivates immigrants to come to the United States (today)? Consider what they lose and what they can gain in your argument.

Some people might here that we have more freedom than they have. Some of the people might not have much food, water, clothing to where, they might not have a nice home with air or heat. When they here we have all that then that make them want to come to the United States. They might lose some of their family and friends but when they come to America then they may find another part of their family that they never seen and meet new friends. The may have a better home a better job than they had.
