Lab #7

For this Lab #7, I decided to show a public dispay of love to all moms on Mother's Day. I created a sign to hold up that said "Honk if you love Mom!" to see what the reaction of the public would be. I chose a very busy intersection near my house on Highway 150 and Highway 200 near the CVS and Foodlion. To be safe and to have more fun, I took along my sister Annie Gray. As soon as we got to the intersection and held up the sign, people started honking and honking. Me and my sister were laughing are heads off the whole time because over 90% of the cars that drove by honked. Some people just stopped at the intersection and honked even when the light was green and it was there turn to go. What was even funnier? A huge 18 wheeler truck drove past us honked at least 10 times! Hahaha! We discovered that that the more animated we were, the more people honked. For example, when we first got out there, we kind of just stoood there laughing and and cars politely tapped their horns. But later, when we were chasing after cars holding up the sign and jumping up and down with the sign people laughed and honked over and over. Well, this was certainly a fun way to end my blog project and I am glad I did it. It even made MY mom happier on Mother's Day.

To whoever is reading this,
I am a 10th grade student at Northern high school and for my civics and economics project I wrote about these three political beliefs.
I have mixed feelings about abortion. I believe that if a woman gets raped, she should have the choice to get an abortion. Also if a woman finds out when she is pregnant, that her baby is going to be severely mentally retarded or has no chance of surviving, she should get an abortion so that the baby won’t suffer when he or she is born. I’m also kind of against it too. I believe that if a sixteen-year-old gets pregnant, she shouldn’t get an abortion because there are many mothers out there who would love to adopt that baby. I also believe that abortion should NOT be used as a birth control.
I’m for the death penalty. I believe the purpose of the death penalty is to remove someone from society who would cause more harm, to deter others from committing crime, to punish the criminal, and to take retribution on behalf of the victim.
I’m against the war in Iraq. I believe the U.S should withdraw its troops from Iraq because it would save the lives of many American troops and allow them to go home. It may also motivate terrorists to stop attacking innocent civilians in Iraq. Also, Iraq is no longer the direct threat to the U.S that was under Saddam, and so we have no business fighting in its civil war.
If you would like to, you can respond with an email and send it to the email posted above. You can share your views and put what you think about those topics.
HAVE A NICE DAY!!!!!!!!

#6 lab last thing that i had to do with it!!!!!

For the items, I was required to put them in a box and seal it off and put a date on it and open it on that date. So I stuck the pics of the items in the box and stuck it in my attic. I was originally going to bury it in my backyard, but my dad didnt want to dig a hole in the yard so he told me to go stick it in the attic, so I did.

lab# 6 item #10

This is a picture of "Octo Mom." She is pregnant with eight babies. This is important because in the year 2009, scientists created this thing were you could get pregnant with more than one child. She did this because she wanted to have her own tv show like Kate Gosslin and make alot of money from doing it.

I think she did the wrong thing because it really is dangerous have more than three babies at once but thats just my opinion.

Lab #6 time capsule item 9

This is a picture of Kate Gosslin from the tv series Jon and Kate plus 8. Kate has been in the news alot because her husband Jon cheated on her. This is important because its like tabloid nws that has been going around. She somehow manges her 8 kids by herself and I find that really impressive.

I used to watch Jon and Kate plus 8 all the time but now simce there divorced i stopped watching it because the media pretty much ruined it for me haha

#6 lab time capsule item #8

This is a newspaper. It tells us from topics about how the Carolina Panthers are doing to the weather to the stock market. It also keeps me updated about how our community is doing.

I don't really read they paper that much but I need to read it more.
