My Summer 2017

I had a very fun summer. I went to a camp called Grace adventures with some of my friends and I had a ton of fun. They had way more activities and fun stuff than camp geneva because they have paintball and tubing and better food. I also went to a cottage with my extended family called which was on a lake called Spider Lake in Traverse City. We go there every summer and we have lots of fun because we watch tigers games, go boating and we do campfires. I also hung out with my friends. I started playing football so I have been practicing a lot of football and it is fun. Sometimes I don’t feel like practicing because it is very hot. I also went to my grandparents farm a lot and played badminton with my siblings and did other fun stuff with my cousins to. And that was my summer.

Invictus

I am picking the main security guard. At the beginning he was opposed to have new white security guards and he thought he could not trust the white guards but through the movie they learned to work together and trust each other for the good of the country. Also he was a great actor.

Africa

My thinking and understanding has grown and my perspective has broadened by learning about all the different stats that we saw. I wonder why a lot of them have phones and not the food they need to eat. I also learned that there are so many languages in Africa and that is cool but at the same time it would be hard to communicate, I think they should narrow down there amount of common languages to about like 25 in all of Africa.

The Eagle Huntress Movie

I thought the film was really cool because I had never heard of hunting with eagles before and it looked really fun. Something that I found weird in the movie was the way they dressed. I like eagles and the gold eagle is no exception but my favorite animal is the harpy eagle because of the way it looks. I thought that that girl was really skilled at commanding the eagle and using it for hunting. I think it wasn’t really a documentary but it was a little bit. I think it was more in general that many people in Mongolia have done this and not just one person ever. I also think life would be tough being a nomad and living in many different places throughout the different seasons. It would also be very cold there and I probably wouldn’t like living there. Overall, it was a good film but I probably wouldn’t want to watch it again.

Running Wild

This short movie was the best one I thought by far of all movies we watched. It was about how these people wanted to see if the wolverines were coming down back to Utah by putting cameras out. We saw moose, bear, squirrel’s, lynx and one wolverine which proves that there are wolverines starting to come down to the Utah mountains very slowly.

Solar System Scale

I thought it was really cool how they made a actually real scale with real measurements. It was cool how they got the planets to light up and go in orbit around in that desert. It was weird that 7 miles across would not even fit pluto in their.
