Issac Newton


Everyone knows who's Isaac Newton, I know him. However, I'm not acquainted with him. I know he's a scientist, physicist. An European. A student from Cambridge. I heard the story of the apple dropping on his head. I studied about his 3 laws, but I forgot what they are. I only know that he is one of the most important men in our history.

Stop Landmines

The video we watched was telling us how land mines can hurt people. It's actually a sad story if that really happens. I wasn't shocked or anything since I think the video itself is not real. It could not have occurred in the States. However, the film is trying to tell us that if this really took place in your country, would you stand for it. It's a excellent way to express this idea. If I was one of the parents, I would be extremely scared and worried when that happened. It's horrible if this occurred anywhere in the world, not only U.S, I think this is what the film is trying to tell us. This terrible clip can be true in many places around the world, such as Africa, Colombia and Asia. I'm glad to see that the U.N is really doing something to help like advertisements. Nonetheless, I don't like the video itself.

Gun Violence



There will always be guns in our world, because nations require them in order to protect themselves. Guns shall not exist on the street though, they're too dangerous for that. If I can create a ideal society without gun violence, there are several things that I will do. First of all, I would work on the law, no one is allowed to have guns except soldiers and police. This would be helpful for the community since it's secure. I will work on the economy and education. With good economy, crime rate will be low. With low crime rate, gun violence would be reduced too. My educational system will include lessons about violence. The kids will learn how guns harm and kill people, so they won't want to be possess them. I will try to destroy the black market for weapons so people can't get them illegally. People want to feel safe, so I will encourage them to hold tasers which can not kill people but injure them. People who own guns will be punished. I hope this system can make sure that gun violence is vanished.

Today we learned about physics. Physics is really important. We learn about many stuff, with all the equations. I'm more interested in physics now. I hope I can under stand how stuff in our natural world work. How things move and everything. It's great.
