Political Post

Article

In this article, Trump asssures Americans there will be a new healthcare plan made for the people. He states that his plan of letting obamacare explode is taking action. Trump points out tht many states have big problems with obamacare, which is true. Trump wants the democrat's support in making a new healthcare plan. He is open to recieving help to make new and efficient plan.


Overall, this article summarizes Trump's new perspective on Obamacare and how he will take action to change it. I think he is being open-minded and wants the opinions of others to try and create the best plan possible. It is now just a matter of time to see what they will come up with. I choose this article because I wanted to research Trumps's new plans of healthcare.

Learning Reflection 3/20

As a student this year I have learned a lot! I think studying has become a bigger deal. In math and science especially, studying 3-4 nights before the test makes a difference in your grade. In the beginning of the year, the tests and quizzes were a lot easier than now. I have started studying earlier and I think it is making a difference in my grades.
Besides studying, notes and homework and important. I think notes help you to have all the information to study for tests. Homework assignments can also make or break your grade. If you complete your homework you can usually keep a good grade. In general, preparing for tests, notes and completing homework assignments are three important ways of keeping good grades.

Weekend 3/20

St Patrick's day weekend is always really busy for me. I have been going to the parade since I was really little. This year I walked almost the whole parade route and ran into a lot of people I knew. After the parade I was so tired but I still had a dance to go to that night. I went to the dance, but it wasn't very fun. After I went to a friend's house and got ice cream.
On Sunday, I went back home and ate boiled crawfish with my family. My cousins also came over to celebrate my brother's birthday. We had vanilla birthday cake and ice cream. This was a really busy but fun weekend. I can't wait for the parade next year!

Analyze a song

 The song "Umbrella" by Rihanna is explaining that she will stay true to whoever she is in a relationship with. She says they will will always be together, and be friends forever. She also explains through metaphor that they are a "star" couple. For example, she sings "we rockafella" which references to a famous person. Another metaphor is "You can stand under my umbrella."
  Symbolism is also a bug part of this song's meaning. Besides the title, "Umbrella" the word is used to portray Rihanna and her partner. She says "you can stand under my umbrella" in reference to they will be together and she can be trusted.

Over Mardi Gras break, I went skiing. This was my sixth year going to Steamboat, Colorado. We took a charter flight with lots of friends. The plane ride was only two and a half hours with no stops. It was super cold when we got there. We were there for seven days and skied for six. This was probably one of my favorite years skiing.
One of my favorite parts was night skiing. It was my first time to ski at night and it was really fun. The only bad part was that I dropped my glove and room key. Luckly, I found my glove.
