The Most Important Inventions In My Life


  One of the most important inventions in my life would be the internet. Any teenager in the world can relate to this. Many of my assignments in school are now online so the internet definitely has a big impact on my life. The internet allows me to find new sources and discover new things that I might not ever have discovered had it not been for the internet. Doing work for school has become a lot easier and even though not all sources may be completely accurate, most are very helpful.
  Besides the fact that I use the internet for school I also use it to connect with family and friends. The internet even opens many doors and opportunities for people including jobs, housing, and clothing. Without the internet at this point in life, many of us wouldn't know what to do with out spar time.

What made The Declaration of Independence Successful and Failure

  The Declaration of Independence had a big impact on America. It is a very important document and still has an effect on the way the government makes certain decisions now. However it did have its downfalls. 
  The Declaration of Independence symbolizes the current law in America. It shows that America can be civilized. This is the good part of the document, however it caused some controversy. Too many states were used to their laws and ruling their own land and this document came in and changed it all out of no where. This is a downfall because it made America split up and want to rebel against the law. Because The Deceleration of Independence has such a big impact on America 'til this, it is somehow still a success. 

Inspiration Entry #2


This picture is inspirational to me because it shows that women can do as much as men. Rosie the Riveter is the symbol that women are strong. This poster was made for the women who worked in the factories during World War One. Also it symbolized the women who took over for some of the men during the war.

This quote inspires me to try my hardest to succeed even if I do fail at the end of the day I can say that I tried. Theodore Roosevelt was a wise man but I believe this is one of his best quotes.

Against Columbus Day


  In my group we decided against Columbus Day. I absolutely agree with this decision. Even though we get a day off of school, we look wrong as a country. My group decided to come up with another holiday. This way we will look better as a country and also get a day off.

  If were to celebrate the Native Americans, well then we would be truly celebrating the group of people who discovered The United States. Their ancestors walked for thousands of years to get to America just to have Columbus come and take credit as if nothing happened. This is what Columbus Day symbolizes and that is why my group and I decided that we should drop Columbus Day and replace it with Native American Day. On this day we will celebrate and give recognition to the Native Americans the same way we have to Columbus.
