My Personal Refection........NHD

As a freshman at Constitution High School, there were a lot of expectations of me.

The pressure was on to do my best as far as good reputation of this school was in my

hands as I started the project. Our topic was Italian Mafia...Joey Merlino, we choose

this topic because personally I thought it was very interesting. So I decided that I

would work on an exhibit, it was right up my alley; my partners wanted to do it to so


it was a date. The research and the project was stressful, but the resources were the

most annnoying part of it. It toke a little while to kick start the project, as we


work on the exhibit. Korin Lassiter, Adriannah Severio and myself set up appointments


and attended the National Arvies to visit documents and see different parts of the

Italian Mafia. My partners and I ran into a lot of problems along the way, but we

stuck together through the process. As a result, the project came out beauitul and we

learned so many differnent things, we bounded and I connected with new present and

future friends. I learned that I souldn't work with friends because it can break up

close relationships. But I also learned that it can be a good thing to work with them

in the long run because, when you get stressed there is a shoulder to lean on to keep

you up when your down. During this process I learned that the Italian Mafia is more

than what they claim they are, they are a disfuctional family. I think I really gained

a fuctional family at the end. That is MY PERSONAL REFLECTION on my National History

Day Project on the Italian Mafia...Joey Merlino. What was your National History Day

Project about?

P.S. I would really appericate it if you came and seen Korin Lassiter, Adriannah

Severio and Silmarie Aguilar's National History Day Project. We worked really hard on

this exhibit; THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!

What Age Should A Child Take On A Lover?

Silmarie Aguilar
Section: 1/2


At what age should children take on a lover? - I believe you can take on a lover

at any time. Here are a few reasons why I strongly believe this: One: it’s their body and I

think if you feel you are ready for one then I totally support you. Second: it’s a freedom

of speech. Three: we were made on this earth to live life, and if you have a age on when

you can get a lover you can’t enjoy life. Here are some more details on how I look at this

situation.


In my first opinion I stated that it’s your body and if your ready for a lover that

you should go for it. Personally, you can’t tell somebody they have a certain age to be

with some body. They are going to find another way to be with them; it’s human nature.

So, you mind as well support this certain person in their actions the best way you can.


As I stated in my second opinion, it’s freedom of speech to have a lover. Nobody

forces you to have a lover, nobody forces you to have a connection with this person. You

can’t control someone acts on his or her emotions based on how mature you think a

certain person is. Everybody deserves to be happy; even if that means a child does take

on a lover.


My third and final reason is; we were made on this earth to live life to the fullest.

There shouldn’t be regulations on who or what we decided to interact with, it’s our own

opinion. In which, I truly believe there should not be an age for taking on a lover. If you

think about it there is no age for falling in love, so why have one for a child taking on a

lover.
So in conclusion, I do not believe that there should be an age for a child to take on a

lover. It your body and personally I think you can do whatever you what with it. As I

stated in the beginning I think we can take on a lover at anytime; it’s a personal opinion

we should respect it. This is what I think about a child taking on a lover.

Rene Descartes
March 31st, 1596 – February 11th, 1650
‘’I think, therefore I am’’


Information about his life:

Rene Descartes was born on March 31st, 1596, in the town of La Haye in the south of France. He was son of Joachim Descartes, which was a Councilor in Parliament; and in his spare time he provided a good learning environment for his son; Rene. When Rene was 8 years old he attended the Jesuit college of Henri 4th in La Fleche; he studied literature, grammar, science, and mathematics. In 1614, Rene left the school to study civil and cannon Law at Poitiers; two years later he received his baccalaureate and licentiate degrees in Law. In his spare time he studied philosophy, theology, and medicine. Rene spent a short time in the military, than went on to enjoy his quiet and happy life. He still continued writing essays, and exploring the world of science and mathematics. Rene was always a frail person, he would spent most of he’s mornings in the bed; where he did most of his thinking. A couple years later Rene relocated to Sweden to tutor Queen Christina in philosophy. Queen Christina wanted her classes at 5:00 o’ clock in the morning. This new schedule was terrible for Rene’s fragile body. Not to long after, he contracted pneumonia; he later died on February 11, 1650 at age 54.

Rene and his contribution to ALGEBRA?

Rene’s contribution to algebra was; in 1637, Rene published ‘’geometry’’. He’s combination to algebra and geometry gave birth to analytical geometry, better known as Cartesian geometry. That is the connection between Rene Descartes and ALGEBRA.
