The fall of the Two towers

I think that 9/11 was the most important event that happened in the last 50 years.  It has caused global awareness of terrorists al over the world.  It has helped for airport security to be tightened.  Hopefully something like this will never happen again.  

My blessings to everyone who lost someone in this tragic event.

Reflection :

I had fun doing this project.  It was very easy and i was able to learn more about the computer by using imovie and it is amazing.  I like how I did by project and am happy with it.  It was hard trying to find the pictures that I wanted online but the ones I chose, I think represent what I meant very clearly.

Family Story

Mt favorite family story is the one my grandpa told my mom and then my mom told me.  My grandpa used to be in World War two.   He was once captured and tortured by the enemy.  They would beat him to a pulp for information.  My grandpa was strong and never gave them a single thing.   He was there for about 3 months before he escaped and found his way back to his camp.  After that he stayed on the battlefield  until the war was over.  After the war, according to my grandma, he was never the same.  He became very depressed and he started losing sleep.  The war and the torture had a great affect on my grandpa.

Learning Experience

Last year was the first year i ever learned Chinese. It was a very great experience to have. It is one of the hardest languages and it was very hard to learn it. We have four differnt tones of speech. That means one word could mean four things, depending on how you say it. This year I am able to grasp it more than last year. I have improved in my reading of symbols and remembering how to write them. Hopefully i approve on how to say the words correctly. Overall Chinese is one of my favorite subjects and i can't wait to see how much more of it I learn this year!
