freshmen year.

This year was great. It had its up and downs, I now have many memories of many new people i met this year. i Don't even know how many i got. Sure it got hard at times and i got frustrated but it eventually got better. I didn't want to do the work at times but i kept bringing my grade down. Didn't get in to much trouble either so thats pretty good. It's been great not as hard as my other teachers before said it would be. Well many times to remember with close friends and a special girl to remember this year. well my first year in high school was good and i hope the rest are as well.

what's the difference between animal farm and real life?

There isn't much difference from people and the animals from the book animal farm. Just like the animals on the farm many people want to rebel against the government. That reason is because they feel cheated. The people and animals want to be treated the same. Eventually when people decided to change its to late. The people had already made up their mind. People mostly rebel for change. Really that's the only reason they do so. Take the war in the middle east for an example. The people crashed planes into the twin towers, and that lead to the U.S to rebel against them and go fight back. Also some people won't take no for an answer so they fight back. That's why the U.S is still there fighting for what they did. furthermore thats the reason people rebel because they want change.

what is power?

What is power? Power can give people many things in life. Such as gang leaders. They much power over the gang. Gaining power isn't easy to obtain. People must put in a lot of work to get it and earn respect of fear. Power can also be the fall of many people. Having too much they could get carried away. Power also comes with respect and fear of others. Many what makes people makes powerful is the people they're around. Like in a dictatorship people are in the government, and slowly move their way up by over running people. People with power would probably get carried away and want more than what they already got. Power is a combination of two things, and that is fear and respect.

why do most teenagers join sports?

The main reason people join sports is to stay out of trouble because maybe they just want to be a better kid. while other people argue with their reasons why people join sports, other people may just think they join sports to do something with their spare time. Some people probably hang around bad people that get them into trouble, therefor that probably earns them a bad reputation. Some teenagers have probably lost some friends by hanging around the wrong people. Others may just choose to do bad choices that also get them and other people into trouble. Other people just join sports because they enjoy doing playing it and just hanging out with their friends. Maybe they never saw their friends as much, so they just joined to hang out.

Some other people may think people join sports just to lose weight. People probably want to lose weight to maybe meet some girls. Maybe they just join to socialize with other people. This could be true. Some just people may just be interested in playing the sport for the first time. They may want to join because all their friends play it. Maybe other people are hopping to get into college by playing football. Like me this year i played football. I played because i kinda liked it. Then because i wanted to lose some weight. At the end of the season i did lose weight.

Just like me, people maybe just want lose weight. Other people may argue different. Some other people may have different reasons.

what would happen if the polar ice caps melted?

Have you ever wondered what would happen if the polar ice caps melted? well scientists say that most of the ice is in the south pole. They say if all of it melted the sea levels would rise by 200 ft. But they also its unlikely because the temperature down there is -37C (-35F). More likely the just portion will melt. But the results would still be catastrophic. A rise of a few

Events that lead to WW2.

In September 1939 Germany invaded Poland this is also remember as the start of the war. during the same time japan took over 1/4 of China. Japan lost about 500,000 troops during the invasion and spent 10 billion. In 1940 Germany held almost of all western Europe. later that year the United States started getting involved with other nations but completely in the war. They gave britain 50 old navel destroyers. In exchange the US got use of navel and air bases. Early next year hitler invaded Yugoslavia. In mid 1941 germany also invaded the soviet union.
