Compassionate Science

To become a scientist, takes a lot of school and learning about math and science, however to be a compassionate scientist is different. Compassion is a great trait to have because that’s how people are driven and motivated to do things. That’s the ability to be able to help people and be able to have compassion for others and be motivated to help them.  Being a compassionate scientist is great. These people can help those in need with their knowledge about science. For example, Mike Ebeling. He is considered a compassionate scientist because he went to Africa and shared his knowledge in building a hand for a young boy, Daniel, who didn’t have one. Mr. Ebeling had the compassion and the drive to help those in need, and those who don’t have the same knowledge him, to teach them how to create a hand. He took it upon himself to not only go and make sure the hand is working, but teach the scientist over there how to use the machine, and make one of their own. As a person I can see myself as a compassionate scientist, because I would like to help people, and if I know how to help why not. People are as lucky as us, and as a person I feel that it is great to show others and help others, because in reality we all depend on each other and can get help and help others. 

The Future!

In about 50-100 years I feel like the world will be completely different. America will no longer be America but something completely different. In the world not only would our technology be better but also our society. Although now we are a democratic society, in later years I feel like the government is going to change. We are going to see the real corruption of the government and overthrow them and make sure it is more democratic.  Also in the future we are all not going to have jobs. The jobs we have now will all soon be taken away be a robot, and if we are not careful they would take over the world. These robots are already showing up, as we go to the supermarket we can checkout our own groceries and there is no need for cashiers.  As human beings we will have robots that do everything. Our gadgets will all be holographic and water proof and fire proof, like those old nokia phones.   To transport place we will just need to stand on top a plate and say were we want to go and it would automatically take us there. No need to pay for transportation and airfare.  The future is going to look different. We would all be living in blockhouses and what we now as nature will soon disappear. The future is closer than we think and I think it will all change for either the better or the worse.                                                                                                                                     

One time I laughed REALLY REALLY hard

One time I laughed really really hard, was when I was at volleyball game with the cheer squad at my school. During the breaks different girls would get up and stunt and show off different tricks in the air.  Four girls decided to go up and do a stunt. The stunt is called a basket toss. The person who gets thrown up in the air (flyer) is thrown up and does a trick and than the three girls all catch her as she is coming down. Okay, so the 4 girls are setting up to the right formation to throw the girl up in the air. the girls throw the flyer in the air and as she was coming down, one of the girls was to inside the square that when the girl was falling she literally fell on top of her and dropped her to the floor.  Thank god no one got hurt! But as we saw the two girls get up from the floor everyone was laughing. The crowd was laughing, because it was so funny how this flyer, and let me tell you this girl doesn’t even way 100 pounds, dropped a girl and made her fell straight on her but. That was the only funny thing though; we had also got this incident on VIDEO! So as the girls went back to sit on the bleachers, the squad was replaying the video and seeing the girl fall over and over again. It was so funny and also embarrassing for the girls, but even till this day I have the video and still makes laugh hard. 

What did you think of modern times?

The film, Modern Times by Charlie Chaplin is a very good film. I have only watched I once and as I saw the film I thought it was very intresting and well thought of. The film has two main characters and instead if them being depressed about what is happening during the Great Depression, they have a good time and never give up, even if it's looking for a job or finding a home. Charlie Chaplin suprised me on how he thought of a great film that had romance comedy, and some sad scenes. The movie was a silent film,but surprisingly it was not that silent. What I mean by that is during the whole movie there was someone laughing or giggling because the movie is funny. The different scenes Chaplin created were different. Chaplin used different scenes to depict the different life style. The movie is called modern times but in reality the movie is just about the time in the 30's, except for the first scene which has some sci-fu feel. The film was very fun to watch and intresting in how even though the holm production was getting better, Chaplin decided to do everything for his film, keep it silent and black and white. A movie so old doesn't really get a lot of attention, but this movie is very intresting and it gives you a feel on how some people portrayed the history or what they did at the time of the depression. If you are into laughing, like old silent films, than Modern Times is a GREAT film!
