Personal Goals

1. One grade that I'm really proud of this term is World History because I got a B, I know I could have done better but It's still a good grade.

2. One grade that I didn't like was Biology because I got a C, I could have done better if I'll do my work and pay more attention plus focus more when I'm doing the work.

3. One goal for next semester is to ask Connie to help me more with Biology, and ask Juan to help me with Algebra so I could move on to Geometry.

4. Also some other goals for this upcoming year is to "GRADUATE" so I could go into training for border patrol and for my kids to be healthy and happy.

5. One goal for my kids is for them not to use any more diapers and be potty trained. I will also like for them to start talking more clearly and say full sentences.

YES on PROP 4

Minor(under 18 girl)must get permission before getting an abortion.

I think yes because if something bad happens to the daughter the parents are the only responsible ones for them. Parents should be knowing whats happening to their daughters and maybe they could help them decide whats best for them. Their are alot of ways to protect yourself from getting pregnant.

Life in Ancient Egypt-Holidays and Festivals


1. In the village of Deir el-Medina the craftmen who lived there worked eight days out of every week of ten days.

2. Hunters scare birds by throwing sticks. Hunting birds was a popular sport in rich Egyptians.

3. The Horus as a child-he could also be shown as a child standing on a crocodile and surrounded by snakes, scorpions, and other dangerous animals.

4. Festivals were held to honour the gods. Only priests were allowed to go inside temples at festivals times.

5. Priests used a special calender based on the phases of the moon to work out when festivals should be held. After they followed the farmer's year, with celebrations to mark the ploughing and sowing of the fields later gathering of their crops.

My life is kind of similar because us as mexican we celebrate our own culture belifs some that other people dont celebrate. We do our own different mexican style food and decorate our house with mexican stuff.

My Life As A Taino


In October 11, 1492 three ships arrived to our land the caribbean island called Guanahani. This spanish people immediately claimed this their propety and renamed it San Salvador.They thought we were indians because they they thought they had landed in India. The spanish people took control of us knowing we didn't have no weapons or nothing to defend ourselves against them, we then became their captivos. We were put to work all day but only one time we had a victory La Navidad all spanish were killed but then we got capture again and put enslaved. We tried to rebel but the spanish responded us with brutal forces:they attacked my people, let them be eaten by dogs, burned alive, killed babies against rocks, slaughter . Hatuey an Taino leader who escaped the spanish capture and led a revolt against spanish in Cuba. He was killed but to all of us he is our hero. For two years the spanish suffered starvation they refused to eat our food and our great weather was too humid and hot for them. Later on the spanish created the ecomiendas system each spanish colonist was given a land grant, they could used use and do whatever thay wanted to us. They put us to work and made us suffer of starvation. In 1510 a roman catholic priest organized to protest the injustices of the spanish against us. Fray Antonio de Montesinos was the leader for this march.Montesinos said that they couldn't called themselves christians if they were treating humans like this. Las Casas owned an encomienda with native workers. Montesinos then convince him about the wrong things he was doing and gave away his encomiendas. He was then called "Protector of the Indians." Because the spanish had killed most of my people they started bringing slaves from Africa into the caribbean. Soon after that they started dying because the spanish were working them to death. They started bringing sugar from Africa and then grew it in the caribbean. As sugar became increasingly properous they then realized they needed more of my people to send them to the others caribbeans. Enslaved africans faced horrible conditions:they made them starve to death, worked to death, branded as property, taken away from their family, treated worse than animals, hanged for punishment, chained together for months below deck with rats. By the mid's 1500's there were more africans on other islands than spanish people. As you could see this is my horrible life as a Taino but I'm going to keep on trying to change everything for all my people that were killed by spanish.

Palenque in Mexico a Mayan Empire like no other.In 1944 archeologist discover two tumbs one of a man called King Pacal 2 and right next to it another one of a women buried in red powder. They decided to call her the The Red Queen. They might think it was a woman named Yol Ik Nal the first woman hat ruled Palenque. It could also be Sak Kuk this women will be King Pacal 2 mother. Or it could also be Tzabu Ajaw this womwn would be King Pacal 2 wife. Yol Ik Nal died in A.D 604. They think The Red Queen could had been buried in A.D 700. They think The Red Queen could be someone else. Sak Kuk born in A.D 612 died in A.D 640. In 612 Sak Kuk gave the rule of Palenque to King Pacal 2 her 12 year old son. Archeologist are trying to discover if The Red Queen is related to King Pacal 2 maybe it could be his mother. Tzabe Ajaw was born in 626 A.D died 672 A.D. They discover that The Red Queen was not from Palenque. In A.D 635 King Pacal 2 married Tzabu Ajaw nine years after her marriage she gave birth to her first son nine years after her first son she gave birth to her second child. They both ruled Palenque. They think The Red Queen lived between A.D 615 AND A.D 680. They found by DNA that The Red Queen is not related to King Pacal 2 so that eliminates Sak Kuk mom of King Pacal 2. The only one left is Tzabu Ajaw archeologist found out that the named for The Red Queen was Tzabu Ajaw.

Bonampak





Bonampak is close to Palenque, and tour operators offer the opportunity for people to travel from Palenque to Bonampak and nearby Yaxchilan.Bonampak means "painted walls",is a Classic Period Maya site, located in the modern state of Chiapas, along the Usumacinta river. It is most notable for the magnificent murals discovered. (A.D. 580 to 800).This site has been hidden away in the jungle for longer than most: not until the mid 1940s did some American explorers discover the place but Bonampak was really rediscovered in 1946.
The Temple of the Murals is a long narrow building with 3 rooms atop a low-stepped pyramid base. The interior walls preserve the finest examples of classic Maya painting

Hillary Clinton

The first reason I'm voting for Hillary Clinton is because she is putting alot of effort to strengthening the middle class, by lowering taxes for all middle class families. Providing affordable health care to every American.
My second reason is that she is encouraged to end war in Iraq. She wants to start bringing home America's troops. If president Bush does not end the war now, when Hillary Clinton is president she will.
The third reason increasing access to high-quality early education and helping to create Early Head Start. Protecting children against violence and sexual content on children's cognitive, social, and physical development.
My fourth reason is that if we vote for Hillary she will efficient economy and create as many as five million new jobs.
My fifth and last reason I'm voting for Clinton is because she is really trying to help every American in the united states. She will provide Nurse home visitation programs to help new parents develop parenting skills. Child care and Head Start. Pre-kindergarten for all four-year olds.
