My Life

Hey everybody! For my last post of the year I want to talk about what a great semester I have had in computers class. I have learned a lot about the new computers. This will help me a lot in the future when these are the main types of computers we have. Also, I had a great time doing most of the projects. I really liked the storyboard and newscasts projects. I think that this project about our lives would have been a lot of fun too if we had had more time. I even liked having a blog. There are a lot of things that could have been improved on in this class, but overaall it was a very interesting and informative class. I am definitly going to miss it next semester when we have to take speech.

I think that this picture is a good representation of winter. It shows the peace and beauty of this season. This picture shows all the good parts of winter. It reminds me of Christmas, sledding, and being with my family. Also, it reminds me of the first Christmas with Mary, Joseph, and Jesus.

The winter season gives me mixed feelings. I think that some parts of winter are great , but other parts are horrible. I love the snow. It makes everything look better and calmer, and it reminds me of Christmas. And I like getting days off school. Also, my birthday is in winter. I love how quiet and calm winter can be. I don't like the cold. I hate having to wear coats and stuff just to stay warm. Also, I don't like how it gets dark really early. My favorite season is definitly summer, so usually I can't wait for winter to be over.

What I am Thankful For

There are many things in this world that I am thankful for. I am especially thankful for my family and friends who I could not survive without. I am also thankful for my education which will greatly help me later on in my life. I am thankful for the sports that I get to compete in and my teammates. I am also thankful for my health and the health of my friends and family. Lastly, I am very thyankful for all of the oppurtunities I have because I live in a great, free country.

Well, I just started the newscast project this week. I am working with Maggie Clark and we are doing our newscast on the Olympics. We are focusing on Michael Phelp's amazing preformance in the Olympics this year. We had a hard time finding a topic that we were interested in. I think that the rest of the project will be pretty easy now that we have started. I hope everyone else's projects are going well!

Invention

If I could invent anything that I wanted to, I would invent a machine that would create gasoline. We need gas to fuel are cars and do many other important things, however, we are running out of gasoline. This is causing fighting and wars. Everyone wants to control the oil fields so that they will be rich. If there was a machine that would create gasoline, no one would fight over the oil fields. There would be plenty of gasoline for every nation to have at a reasopnbale price.

Political cartoon

I like this political cartoon because it seems to accurately describe the governments refusal to acknowledge the problems in our world. It shows how the politicians try to feed the public information that does not clearly describe the problems that the world is having. They try to tell us the things that we want to hear, not the things that we need to hear. They don't want any one to think that they are bad politicians, so they refuse to give us the bad news which is the truth, instead they give us useless lies that tell us nothing about the true situation our world is in.

Inspirational Picture

I think that this is a very inspirational picture. You can barely see the runner coming up the foggy road through the trees. This picture makes me want to run more because it shows running as a challenging sport. It makes running seem like a great thing to do. This is a very striking image. The runner looks so small and insigfnificant as they battle their way up the road. This picture inspires me to to try harder and push myself so that I can become a better, faster runner. This picture shows me that even when there is no one else around you to cheer you on, it is still important to try your best even though you are the only person who will know.
