Chemistry

Chemistry is the most pointless class in the students curriculum. Like when in your life are you gunna need to know how many moles are in 5 grams of Hydrochloric acid seriously when are you gunna need to know that. Same with molar mass like I'm walking down the street and I see water oh, I suddenly have the urge want to find out what the molar mass of water is and by the way a mole of H2O has a molar mass of 18 grams. Ya suppose if you want to be a chemist when you grow up but why not have more important classes in high school. Say you want to be a dentist there should be a class where they study certain subjects that have to do with dentistry. In Europe if you know what your good at in school they will try and get courses where you might be going in life but in Canada they just have the basic classes ex. biology, chemist, history, English. Then theres chemistry homework its absolutely impossible to figure something out by reading the book because its said in such a high level you don't understand it then when you get back to class the teacher asks you why u didn't do your homework and you say i don't know how and they don't believe you they just say you lazy.

The Dangers Found in a Careless Lottery Filled World

The ending of the seemingly happy story "The Lottery" takes a unfortunate turn for the worst. In the last part of this story the happy respectable citizens of the nameless town took a surprising turn as they brutally murdered a poor woman with two children who were involved in the stoning of her. The disturbing news that in Rwanda there is a was between the Hutus and the Tutsis. The hutus brutally murdered thousands of woman, men, and children with no mercy and without thinking even for a second about their conscience.In the"Lottery" the people of the town brutally murdered the woman with out and mercy because they think that this is completely normal.

Eli Weisels speech is perfect when it comes to indifference. Hitler thought that the Jewish race was in superior to the German race for some reason. So he hired his army to execute any person with a Jewish background so that he could have what he called a perfect race. Almost the same in the "Lottery" except the people don't believe that there should be a perfect race. Except that the people of this nameless town thought that it is completely normal to murder someone each year due to the outcome of this so called lottery.

Top 3 movies you need to see

#1 Schindlers list

Schindlers list is by far one of the best movies of all time. The acting was incredible and its based on the holocaust in Germany. Schindlers list is basically right on when it comes to how real the events that happened were. Schindlers list is about a man that buys Jews so that they don't get killed in the concentration camps. It is named one of the top ten movies of all time in the movies of all time list . In schindlers list there are certain scenes that have color because they wanted to symbolize certain things that were very important about that time. I personally give this movie a 9.8 out of 10



#2 Lord of the Rings

The Lord of the Rings is a movie about an adventure between friendships and the fate of the world. The theme of this epic story is a hobbit named Frodo gets assigned to the ring to be its barrier to take it to the very place it was created to destroy it win the battle for middle earth. The cast of this movie had some very big actors in it like Sean Penn, Orlando Bloom, Viggo Mortensen, and Liv Tyler. The people gave this movie a rating of 9.0 on a ten point scale. Personally I would give this a 8.9 out of 10


#3 Into the blue
Into the blue stars the talented Paul Walked and the gorgeous and talented Jessica Alba. Into the blue is about a group of scuba divers come in contact with a very dangerous drug lord who wants them to retrieve his drugs from a downed plane in the ocean. I personally like this movie and rate it a 8.5 out of 10.
Eagle Eye

The movie Eagle Eye was overall a great experience. The movie was fast paced, easy to fallow, intense, and keeps you guessing till the end of the movie. The movie never gets boring its action packed but with a kind of romantic side to the movie. The performance from Shia Labouf was outstanding, better than the Oscar nomination performance he did in Transformers. The same to his co-star Michelle Monaghan who joins Shia in their impressive performance throughout this movie. Overall I give this movie a 9/10. You will definitely want to go see this movie,
