How Would I Help People With Science

Compassionate science isn't something hard to consider. There are advanced ways of technology that can help and influence to help others in the world. Just like in 3D Printing, Mike found out about a 14-year old boy in Africa without both arms. He created a way of helping people in Africa affected by the bombing and other children just like Daniel. This was Mike's way of giving back to the world. From the bottom of his heart, he decided to help and take good care of these people. If i became a scientist, i would create showers, just like public restrooms. This way however, homeless people would be able to control the tempetures of the water instead of it being cold or hot.

Thoughts On Bullying


My thoughts on bullying can be somehow called complex. I do not believe bullying is okay, but I believe it’s a sort of comfort for the bully. If the bully is young, that means they have found a sense of joy in being a bully because it is a sense of control. Bullying causes happiness for the bully and sadness or a very bad feeling for the bullied. Bullying is not okay, but punishing someone for it isn’t either. It’s apparent that the bully has other issues in which they want to take out on another person. They might be angry at someone or even angry at themselves, therefore, they believe picking on someone is the right approach. Bullying can start at a very young age, and its easy to assume that the child just doesn’t know any better. As they grow up and mature, they’ll become ashamed of what they would say or do to hurt someone else’s feelings at such a young age. However, this only happens if they learn from their bad behavior. Teenage bullying is much more harder to handle. As young adults, we are expected to know wright from wrong. We should know our roles in society and have manners, that’s if, we learned any. Teenage suicide can be a grave danger. Millions of teenagers are bullied all over the nation, and often look towards suicide to escape the atrocity if being laughed at or mocked. Bullying isn’t only a verbal insult, its also physical. If and when bullying gets physical, the bully should seek anger management classes or help with their anger altogether. Hurting someone in a verbal or physical way has no excuse. 

My Favorite Movie


My favorite movie is Maleficent. The reason it is my favorite is because it is based on my childhood favorite princess, Aurora; The Sleeping Beauty. Hearing about the movie, I believed it would be specifically about the sleeping princess, but as I watched the amazing film in the theaters the day of the midnight showing, I realized the main character was not Aurora, instead, the witch who had casted the spell on her. However, throughout the film, it became clear that the witch is NOT a witch, but a fairy whom had her wings cut and was left to die alone in her bitterness. The plot of the story changed in a whole dramatic way that made me adore the ‘witch’, whose name was Maleficent. It was a tragic story about a heartbreak and revenge. In the end of the movie, the theme clearly is that true love does not only have to be from a prince or a man. Maleficent led me to acknowledging the changing perspectives Disney is trying to send to children, and how it connects with our current events in American society. Maleficent also sends out the message that revenge is never beneficiary, unless you are indeed a ‘witch’, or only acquire coldness in your heart.  Maleficent, like Disney’s recent movie Frozen, demonstrated the story behind the villain in the movie. In conclusion, the film was filled with amazing plot twists,  that made this version of the princess’s story, a better watch.
