We have been working on a college road trip in class. We have been learning about colleges and gathering information on our learning styles. We also took a personality test to learn more about our personalities. As you can see I have the personality type architect.

100WC Week 21

We started the hike at 10:30 am today. It is now 4 pm and I feel like I’ve walked 100 miles with grandmother. Of course, we have only walked like 12 at most. I already want to go home but we have another 8 miles to walk until the end of the trail. We’ve encountered everything that you would normally see on a hike. We’ve seen a few rivers, some wild animals, and a lot of trees. I never knew hiking was such a hassle sometimes. Even though my legs are killing me it was fun to get out of the house for a while.

100 WC Week 19

Come on Jake let’s go watch them announce the winner. “And the winner is” Jake. I’m Jake and you may be wondering how I got here so I’ll tell you. The competition started a month ago a big company wanted input from the community on a new game idea. So people’s writings gt featured then whoever had the most votes their idea would become a game. It’s a pretty good way to ensure your game gets played. Now my idea was a game called Apex Legends. That’s about all there is to know about the competition.

I had already flown to New York from Ohio. I came here with one intention to see Niagra Falls. Turns out everything is more expensive and crazier in New York. I got in the nearest taxi the guy had a yellow air freshener for the car that smelled like a sunflower. By the time we got to Niagra Falls, I was stunned. It was marvelous saying I was excited was an understatement. The taxi driver warned me to not get too close to the edge because the weight of the water would heavily ruin my body on impact.

2020 in a Nutshell

“It’s not like last year”, he thought. Oh, boy was he correct. It’s crazy how much can change in a year. You don’t really appreciate what you have and all the options until they are taken from you. If that’s not the most accurate description of 2020 I don’t know what is. 2020 has been nothing like 2019. It’s a total disaster. Everyone was so hopeful for 2020. It’s kind of sad how this year has turned out so far. From the wildfires to the quarantines it’s been crazy. Hopefully, things will be better in 2021.

One Wish

My one wish to make the world a better place is for humans to be able to survive in space without a suit on. This includes the heat and cold of space, the ability to withstand the pressure, breathe in space, and etc. I wish for this because we would make astronomical advancements and discoveries literally and figuratively. Most other important wishes are useless and would not work. A big other one is to cure world hunger which is literally impossible. That is my one wish I hope you enjoyed reading.

Benefits and Downsides of Transportation

Transportation is involved in our daily lives. The best form of transportation, in my opinion, is cars. While cars pollute the air and aren’t super good they are almost a necessity. So Many people have cars because they need them to get around. Cars are very common because of what they provide.

 

   The way we travel harms our planet by polluting it. This is because of many factors. The biggest one is carbon emissions from cars and trucks. Another thing is how you need gas to power most cars which also harms the earth. It is really a win-lose situation.

A McDowell School Day

    I go to a school called McDowell Middle School. Our days are different from other places. I get on my bus at 6:55 am. My bus is one of the last busses to get to school at around 7:50 am. 

    My first class starts at 7:55 which is advanced math. My next class starts at around 8:50 am. This is my science class. The next class starts at 9:45 am and goes till 10:36 am. The 9:45 to 10:36 am period is my advanced ELA class. The next period is lunch which goes on for 30 minutes. Then we have something called AE is stands for academic enrichment. I will be honest with you AE is basically a shorter guided study. Lunch and AE span for a total of 1 hour and the next period starts at 11:43. 

    Our 5th period here at McDowell is a little weird. It is our longest period and is around 5 minutes longer than the second-longest period. This is my Social Studies class and it goes on till 12:44 pm. My next period is known as Guided Study. For anyone who doesn’t know what Guided Study is it’s basically another period for you to get your work done. Guided Study goes on till 1:38 pm. My final period of the day goes till 2:33 pm. This is my art class time.

     There is a weird time in between Art and the end of the day. It’s like two minutes for you to just linger around until around 2:35 pm where school releases. After you are released and ready to go home every one who is picked up goes and finds whoever is picking them up. If you ride the bus then well obviously you go and get on the bus.

100 Word Challenge: Industrialization Prompt

This picture honestly disturbs me. You can see all of the pollution going into the air coming from there. It is horrible seeing all of the pollution out there. I understand we use things made from there but it’s awful what is happening in return. I know I keep saying this a lot and I may sound repetitive but this image really disturbs me and is awful how much pollution there is in the world.
