My break was a real bummer. My fiend Garrett and I had planned ongoing to the beach in Destin, FL for spring break. We planned on bringing two more people that go by the names of William White and David Tatman. We were going to stay in a condo that Garrett's parents got for free from their work. We were quite excited to go, but the only problem was that we would only be able to go for 3 days. Right before the break they decided that it would just be better not to go.

There is a good side to this story as a matter of fact. Even though his parents said we could not go after the break they said we could go after school ends. This will be better because there was a slight chance that our friends couldn't come due to their baseball practices interfering with the dates. Now it will all work out for everyone to go.

"If you are in a position of power, you are happy" I disagree with this because most of the time people with power aren't very happy. Sure having power over certain people can make you happy and make you feel respected. The problem is that when you have power it comes with a lot of responsibility. This becomes a problem because when the people you have power over aren't good it becomes your fault.This is what generally happens to a lot of people

"Everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence, which are basic parts of human nature." I completely agree with this statement because this is a statement that goes to what humans are. At their core all humans want to do is survive. When we were neanderthals they did almost anything to get what they wanted. Whether this was stealing from another, betraying another for his life. Violence is different because violence is life. Violence is blood and gore what you could view as our lifeline. Its strange that the fact that violence is censored because it's life in a sense.

Explaining my topic to a friend

My mom already knew much about the topic because she remembers hearing about it on TV when she was younger. I think the topic was very interesting when I first heard about it. It seemed interesting learning about it from what I had heard such as the explosions and such. I didn't know much about it in the first place but the more I learn the better it seems.

My topic was fairly interesting when I first heard about it. At first I didn't know how to appropriately use it accordingly with my guidlines. The areas in which I explored were very interesting. I didn't have much experience on the topic at first but the more I researched the better I was able to connect it to my thesis and find my topic more interesting

Your research paper draft

I feel like my paper is all in all a fairly good paper. Its full of information and the topic is well explained  and my thesis works well with my sources. I think it was hard to use my notecards to put in information with my paper while I was writing it. I had to switch back and forth between the internet and the paper.

I found it hard to put the information in well enough where I'm relating it to the author of a site.Once I found the information I could successfully put it in the correct places and lengthen the paper out. I want  to use my sources equally and lengthen the information out.

I'm getting ready to start track season which is really exciting for me. I've always been really devoted to track because I do a thing that not a lot of other people do, I pole vault! It's always been something I've been attracted to because my brother did it. That and coach Dupe is practically making me do it because he did. Not only that I'm pretty good t it for my age right now.

Because my brother did it I've been practicing with the high school since 7th grade. That is because middle school doesn't offer Pole vault because it is to "dangerous." I've only seen 2 injuries the whole time I've been doing it. The first time the guys face went down on the bar he was trying to get over and he cracked his tooth. The second time the guy wasn't running fast enough when he planted the pole in the box and it rejected him and threw him back. Though it's dangerous I still love to do it!
