My Journey into researching Amelia Earhart...
I choose Amelia Earhart, the first female pilot to travel across the Atlantic Ocean. At first My partner and I choose Besty Ross regarding the American Flag. Once we began to do research we notice this subject did not catch our attention. One day during research we ran across Amelia Earhart, at first we did not want to start all over again with the paper work and the researching; but when we heard she was traveling over the Atlantic Ocean one day and disappeared... we just had to research her for our National History Day project. Knowing that Amelia Earhart had disappeared and no one knew where she was at set off my imagination for finding out the closest and reasonable answer to why and how she disappeared.That is why I choose to work on Amelia Earhart for my National History Day project.

I am truly excited to work with the project; it involves children with cancer and our group will be raising money in the process. We will also be having a fair on the 3rd of May (the rain date is the 17th of May).

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.
