Before class Mr. Schick almost fell off the stool while
trying to fix the projector. While in
class we finished the discussion about the questions that we started
yesterday. When we were talking it was about
the same things as yesterday. But when one
person asked a question a very odd one the whole class went into it. I bet you’ll
never guess what everyone was talking about.
I don’t want to talk about the discussion but I will any ways. It was about the aids pandemic in Africa but
it was about why people kept having sex.
My thoughts about when this happened where how does this always lead to
sex and why would you assign this for homework when you have a group of immature
9th grader in the room. Then out of the blue someone asks “You know
dolphins have sex for fun too.” After this
I the person asked “Do dolphins have get aids.”
And then someone had to look it up of course. Well I’m going to end it there because I have
gone way over 150 words which is fine but I don’t know what else to say that’s not
another 100 words of writing. Good night
everyone who is reading this and can’t wait to write another one.

Tuesday, September 11, 2012
During class today we discussed the homework from last night
which was answering the 25 questions. While
during the discussion we went off on topic just about every question. Most of it was about how it was important to
us and then we talked about 9/11 stories.
The one that was important to me was how much oil we consume. With the oil reserves we have now it would
only last us 36 days if used about 20 million barrels per day all at once. And if we used 4.4 million barrels per day
then it would last us 165 days. I wish
one day we would run out of oil so then I could bike just about anywhere
without the issue of cars killing me. While
we did all that Mr. Schick decided to give out some candy which wasn’t the
greatest idea in the world while having some greedy kids in the room. One of those kids was Jake who was trying to
take every piece thrown by him. In the
end I think everyone had a piece and some had more.

The two questions that mattered most to me were the current population of the world because this will affect the future and how many kids i will be allowed to have how many resources we will have.
The other is how much we import oil. This one worries me because what are we going to do if oil runs out we will only have a months back up oil supply.

Illinois
Today in Human Geo. we learned
about the state Illinois which is the largest populated state in the
mid-west. Chicago the state’s largest
city has one of the busiest airports in the U.S. The state nick name is the prairie state
because it is all flat. The city of
Chicago has a population of about three million and the suburbs around the city
have about the same. That’s all I really
remember from notes and I know this was all supposed to be about the notes so I’m
sorry. The funniest thing from Human
Geo. today was when Mason didn’t even know what we were talking about. After going home today I watched the DNC and
found about many stories Governor Romney and now I’m here stuck with not
knowing what to say. Well after today I fell
very tired and now I’m going to bed. Good Night.
