Kid's Science Challenge

The title of the game was Pollution Blasters-Water Quality
Well, I learned the basic thing: prevent pollution.
Well, I think that the creators might have put more facts about pollution. Instead of just having them during the game, it was better to have an About Scene, so that way you couldn't have been distracted during the game.
I guess that it was entertaining because the harmful substances would get faster, so you had to shoot better and faster. Yeah, I ended up trying to do a level 3 to 4 times because it was really fast.

Recycling Stuff

Some of the examples that I saw was aluminum. Sodas are made of aluminum and they can be reused again by making others like that. Plastic can also be recycled. They cut, so then it can be reused for carpets and toys. Easy ways to start recycling is for example, instead of just throwing away a plastic water bottle, you can just reuse it again. Recycle plastic bags, so that you can reuse them also. Of course, sometimes it is very convenient to bring a lunch box with you, but you can start by learning on HOW to recycle and REUSE. At EA Prep for example, most students bring their own water bottles, sodas (drinks) to school. Well, they end up in the trash can, but it would be more convenient if we had like a recyclable place where students can dump them in. For electronics that don't work anymore, it is also very convenient to bring them since most of them are plastic. In conclusion, recycling is just a valuable way to save the environment and us.

Do you think you can change your community?

I am not sure... I can cooperate with a group of people, but me, alone? I guess never. I think that I would stand up for myself for when it comes to something serious, like trash. I would probably talk about how it can affect the environment primarily. Since I am one of those people that don't like to share my feelings with other people, rather my friends, it makes it difficult because, how am I going to change the community if I can't be certain about myself? In conclusion, I think that changing my community will be hard because of me. It's been me all the time and I can't change it if I can't change myself that will cause a positive impact on myself.

Tech Trash

What is tech trash?
Tech trash is is a discarded area of electronic devices.

How does the trash negatively affect the environment?
CRT's have a high lead content and can be environmentally hazardous if not recycled properly. They could seep into groundwater and rivers, contaminating the water supply.


What does the article explain about people looking for solutions to tech trash?
Barbara Kyle said that people can donate electronics, but function well, so that way charities would be able to use them.


What can you do to help keep tech trash from polluting our community?
You can maybe call people that can properly dispose the trash, so that way both you and the environment, can be well satisfied.

School Year

This school year has been so so. Last year, we had amazing teachers, not that I'm saying that this school year's teachers are bad. No. I mean, I really miss in particular, Ms. Milner and Mr. Cunningham. I actually like most of the teachers like Ms. Vidal, Mr. Marino, Ms. Adame, etc. I also like the lunch better. Yeah, it didn't quite change, but the food is much more tasty. One concern, though: last year, I was in advanced Globaloria. This year, however, I am in the beginners Globaloria. I really got annoyed and mad because I took Globaloria for 4 years already, so basically I'm screwed because I have to take it to be able to get involved with stuff. I also like the way that I have gotten closer to people that I didn't think I would. The idea of having classes with others, it's just an opportunity to get to know more people. At the same time, you can form trustworthy and friendship. That's all I have to say about today's year...I also feel a lot older this year. It makes me feel like I am actually becoming an adult. I am starting to really think about college, my future, and how I'm gonna miss some of these crazy weirdos from EAPrep when I'm gone. (I'm crying now because I'm thinking about all this and it's making me sad) 

Me

I am a 10th grader and is 15 years old. I am really short, so that's one of the characteristics that I hate about myself. Well, I am a very...normal person. The quality that I like most about myself is: friendly. I can't be mean to other people because it's just not me. Although when I do get mad, I start to really have this annoying attitude and that is why I have patience too. Sometimes my friends can be really annoying and can be mean to me, but I honestly have a lot of patience. I am also very sweet! I like to laugh a lot, which is something that I really love doing. I am a good listener. I tend to be those people that might help other people with problems. Whenever they have to get something out, they come to me, so that way they wont feel miserable and hopeless. My favorite animal are dogs and puppies. Some time in the future, I will get one because I have never had a dog. I don't like to read any book. It has to be like "The Hunger Games," meaning something interesting and fiction. I am really quiet. Why? I mean, if you want to talk, let it be for something productive or something that you feel. Not to just be annoying and loud...
Here at school, though, I'm not energetic, just sometimes when my friends and I have those crazy moments. That's the other thing: I am full of energy. Yeah, I can be very boring, but at home, my family gets annoyed with me because I act crazy and laugh hard! My favorite class is Geometry and Reading. I LOVE IT!
I really like being girly-girl, meaning that I like to play with make-up and playing with my hair.
If there's one place that I would love to visit is: England! Yeah, London sounds really tempting and duh, I LOVE ONE DIRECTION! (Harry Styles in particular) When I have enough money or retire someday, I would want to live in England!
That's just me...Ana
