Are all things connected?

I think that all things are connected in a way like the food chain, the food web, the nitrogen cycle....etc. In nature everything is connected to the Sun cause that is where everything started. If you mean it in a non literal way I think that yes. There are lots of examples in life where things in words connect, like Latin roots or the origin of a word. Things are connected in interesting ways that most people never think of, for example in Harry Potter there was the spell where you need to say Crucio, and that spell was used to hurt someone well it comes from the word to crucify which is to harm someone badly. Also snowflakes have 6 points and bugs have 6 legs so I guess that nature likes 6 but however in the Bible 6 is a bad number. The Bible also has some stories that are connected to other religions too. See how all these things connect in the world.

Reflection on First Semester of 7th Grade

I think that my first semester of 7th grade is good just really tiring. I was late for school for 2 times but I think that it is okay since I live in Taoyuan. I think that I am used to this school now and that the first semester went well to me. I think that English class is okay and that the homework amount is also good. The diary is hard to write since sometimes nothing happened on that day or at home so I sometimes don't know what to write but that rarely happens. I think that the stories for the literature circles are okay but I wish that we can read some stories that have fiction not always nonfiction or a auto-biography. I think the class is okay but sometimes I wish that we can have more time to correct our Holt readers so that we don't need to correct it at the end of every quarter or sometimes stay after school. The class journal is okay and that the topics are sometimes hard but I think that I am okay with it. The class is okay since I don't think that it is really that boring but I wish that we don't always have to be that late for lunch. I think that my reading skills should be better since that is where I usually make mistakes at reading skills on my test and defiantly the sentences and vocabulary.

Can where you are change who you are?

I think that no matter where you are still yourself. Your outer image mind change, but you know the old sayings its not what the outside counts it what who you are. You might get a haircut or catch up with the latest trends but your personality is still the same. I went to the US when I was little and I go there every summer, but I still liked reading and like to do the same stuff. I think that no matter where you are, you are still the same person and I don't think people will change the way they are. Only you yourself knows whether you changed or not. Some people change themselves to fit in but I disagree. If I were to change I would keep the personality I have and try to keep the original me unless my mom forces me to have a different kind of hairstyle or something like that. Remember its not what the outsides count, its what the inside counts.

Review on Video


I feel bad for the family because they are broke and they need to rely on the only thing they have their car. I wish that we can help them with anything we can. The whole family must need to help each other so they can have food to eat and they don’t even have a house. The whole family is close to each other and they are really happy to have each other at least. People usually think that they have a house that is bad and someone else’s house s better, after the video I found out that I am happy to have a family and a wonderful house to live in. with a family that cares and love me. I will also work harder so that I don;t end up in a car and that I don't have anything left to rely on. I wish the economics of the world can be better for the family in Florida. And I hope that more job options can open up for them. Lets all hope that these hard times for them can quickly pass.
