The Schema: Why do we Care?

  • Imagine that the lunch that you got was terrible, you would ask for another one because you want a better verity.  That is just like The Nullification Crisis and the Compromise of 1833

Bumper Sticker Importance

  • This topic was important because the Tariff Acts are unauthorized by the U.S. constitution and violate the true meaning of the intent that are null, void, and no law, nor binding of this state.

Why is that Important

1. After the congress passed the law of the Tariff Act, the Force Act allowed the use of the military if anyone who didn’t obey this act.

2.  This is important because if military use wasn’t used, then many people would rebel against the act.

3.  This is important because the congress would have had to issue another law.

I think people should treat people on their actions because someone could be on the floor crying for their mom and you just look at them and laugh and you don’t even bother to help the person out. What about a little kid that is severely injured and everyone just looks at him without even bothering to help the kid because he was a different race, would you help him? What if you were that person, and no one helped you? You would think all the people hate you. One of my favorite qoutes is,“I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something. And because I cannot do everything I will not refuse to do the something that I can do.”
Hellen Keller.

I like this qoute because it shows that even though your are the only one, you can still do something no matter what the cause.

Help someone out even though they may be a different race or it’s in your D.N.A. to not help that type of person.

My dream is to play like them one day and hope to play for a professional soccer and/or basketball team in the future.

What is my dream? Well, let me re-phrase that, What do I want in my life the most? I would love to say that I want to become a professional sports player or be a successeful buisness man, but I would give all that up if I was able to see my grandmother again. Sure I really didn’t know her because she past on before I was born, but I could say from all the stories my mother has told me about her was that she was one of the best characters in my mothers life. If I could see her again, It would mean the world to me.

Have you eve wondered what the star spangled banner really came from? Who wrote it? How did it came to be? A song that you hear almost every time you go to a professional sports  event and you don’t even bother to wonder, what the hec does this song mean? Well, the person who created this patriotic poem was Francis Scott Key. I will be putting the star spangled banner into my own words and at the end, you really would no what our national anthem would mean the next time you hear it.

 

Oh, say, can you see, by the dawn’s early light,                                                 

(When you look up in the sky you see morning ahead.)
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming?

(We honor the flag while the day is ending)
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, thru the perilous fight,

(The flags stripes and stars were so well seen through the dangerous and frightening fight.)
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?

(Over the barrier we saw rockets flying through th sky.)
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,

(And we see the explosions that are so bright,and watching the explosions exploding in the air.)
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

(Even though we were weak our flag was still waving through the fight.)
O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave

(Does our national anthem het known thrugh the day.)
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?

(Over the land that is now independent and brave.)

During the War of 1812 Mrs. Dolly Madison saved the portrait of Gorge Washington. This had now proclaimed that Dolly would be a Legendary Figure in American History. Even though she was known for many other good deeds, saving Washingtons portrait was the most valuable act she has done. 1812_cWashingtons Portrait

We create symblos because you want to remeber something that means a lot to you even though someone else has no clue what that symbol means. We want individualism, we want a mark that represents something that you care about and that is why I think people create symbols. Why do people need symbols? People need symbols to represent who you are or what you believe in. For example, if you had an american flag in your bag and went to a foriegn country many people would see that symbol and see that you are an american. Also, if you go to another country and speack a different laguage they know that you are foriegn, Language is also a symbol that represents were you live or how knowledgeable you are. I think the american flag is a symbol because it represents an american and the american history. The stars represent the 50 states and the stripes represent the first 13 colonies. The flag represents american history and how the country america started out. Just think for about 10 seconds,What do you think the american flag represents to you or what does your country flag represent to you………
