This unit has actually taught me a lot. Before we actually talked about this, I didn’t realize how much energy I was using and wasting. Well I knew what I was doing but I didn’t really see that what I was doing was so bad! I actually did listen to what was going on, but I don’t quite remember every little detail of what we learned, but some things did stick with me. I definitely was interested in learning about vampire energy because that was one thing that applied to me. I do leave my charger in the wall even if I’m not really using it. So I thought that was really interesting because before reading that article, I didn’t know that leaving my charger in the wall when it’s not charging my phone was actually wasting a lot of energy. I didn’t really think about it. Something else that I didn’t really pay attention to was the energy guide labels. After we talked about that, I went home to do my laundry in my basement, turned around, and found an energy guide label in my basement! It was cool for me because before looking at it in class, I wouldn’t have even noticed that in my house! Energy Guide Labels are actually really important because it actually gives you an idea of how much energy you are actually using up in your house. I always wonder why my house is so cold in the winter time when all doors are closed and we don’t even open them and most of our doors are insulated. The only door that was not insulated was my back door (before we got the supplies to take home). I didn’t realize air actually leaked through the floors, walls, and ceilings I thought that was surprising just for the simple reason that I didn’t know that happened The rest of the things that we learned I didn’t really learn something new, because I had already knew about those things whether it was from hearing it in a previous science class, TV, or my parents. The things that I will change in my daily life now that I have learned these new things is to just try to save as much energy that I can as possible. I will start taking my charger out of my wall in the morning before I go to school. As a child I always wanted my TV on because it was a comfort. Even if my mom would turn off my TV, I turn it back on. Maybe I could put sleep mode on my TV and that way it would turn off while I’m sleep! I will also look out for lights in my house to see if they are on for no reason, and then turn them off. I will even try to take fewer showers. I will even go to check to see what temperature my mom has the heat so that I can tell her to turn it down a tad bit! I want to do these things is my daily life because I do think that it was very important. I don’t even know what I would do if we ran out of energy. We would not be able to do anything easily! I know have a better understanding for why my mom gets so upset when I leave a light on or even my TV. Now that I have learned these things, I will share it with my family and friends because I think that it is very important and I do feel like people don’t even know they are wasting energy when they are! I think that people would be thankful because for one, we can save energy and it also will save people money! I feel like now when I become an adult and I live on my own and have a family, I will now be cautious about how much energy that I’ve been using and I will even try to install energy saving light bulbs, and make sure there is insulation for my doors and windows so that I don’t have to use my heating and cooling AC’s as much. I will also be able pass the knowledge down to my kids like 15 years from now!!

Air Pollution
The topic that I chose to write about was Air Pollution and what it is doing to our environment and what we can do to fix it. Air pollution is basically chemicals, biological materials, and other things that are in the atmosphere that cause harm or discomfort to humans and other living organisms. I looked up 3 different articles that had to do with air pollution. i wanted all three to have good information, but different things about air pollution.The 1starticle was from “National Geographic” and it just explained what air pollution was and the different types of air pollution. It’s stated that smog hanging over cities is the most familiar and obvious form of pollution. It also said that carbon dioxide is the main pollutant. Also sulfer dioxide and acid rain are some of the other pollutants.Some of the pollution can also come from volcanic eruptions. The 2nd article was a “CNN” article that talked about what air pollution has done to countries. One of the countries that had pollution very bad was Iran. They declared a two day public holiday in Tehran after air pollution hit dangerous levels. Schools, public offices, universities, and banks were closed for 2 days. It was so bad that Tehrans downline skyline was barely visible at one point of time. Also, people were not to go outside and were encouraged to use public transportation.This also happened in china.The 3rdarticle, “American Lung Association” and it talked about how we can have healthy air. It had 5 diffrent links that were basically different places with air pollution. It talked about healthy air in school, homes, work, and outside. It also talks about how it is not fair to people with lung disease and asthma. The article shows you ways to prevent air problems,how to know if there was a problem with the air, and what you can do to fix it for you and your family. I think that these sources definitley seem reliable. I do not think this is false information. Well my articles talk about different things, all of the articles are not for air pollution because they call it "bad"somewhere in the article. I do agree that it is "bad". There is nothing good about air pollution in my opinion and im pretty sure most people would agree. The articles do have sources and backup information. They give you links that say "for more information click here" and "any questions click here" Some interesting things that i learned from this article, well i pretty much know what air pollution is and the name is pretty much self explanatory, but something that i didnt think about is how bad air pollution is for most people. Especially for people with lung disease and asthma and Its just really sad to me. I also didnt know that it was so bad that people cant see buildings in their countries. This article definitley makes me want to make a difference. We are being selfish and not thinking about others. All of these factories and stuff are really destroying our earth and its even making our people very sick. We really should start thinking about the affect that we have on the environment.

PSA's
so a couple weeks ago, we watched a video (dr. seuss the lorax) which was about a guy who destroyed the environment for animals. they killed the trees to make their product, caused air pollution because of the factory, and littered all over the ground. we then were each to get in groups of 4 and come up with a topic and make a psa about it. my group came up with a rap which i wrote and they found their facts. it was all about littering and what we are doing to the environment and what we need to do to try to fix this problem. we all came together and watched each others groups. some of the topics that people talked about had to do with polar bears and how their habitat was dissapeappearing and how its causing them to die, one group talked about the ozone layer, and another group talked about global warning. i really enjoyed about how everyone set up their psa, but the one that i liked the best was my groups. i know that sounds maybe cocky or what not but i just really feel like it was good! lol like everyones was great and had good info, but we had good info and something that would keep our audience listening instead of just talking in a monotone voice because my generation does not like to hear just someone talking because they can get easily distracted.!!

The Human Footprint
In class we watched a video called the human footprint which was basically talking about how much we consume in the earth. My reaction to the video was sad, shocked and it was a definite wake up call for me because i really didnt notice how much of the earth we consume each day! the three things that schocked me the most about the video was that 1. we have affetced 83% of the earths land, 2. i didnt really realize that destroying the earth starts at the tender of 1, and 3.all of the huge numbers of the things that we consume in the earth. i never really noticed how much of that was so it was very shocking to me. The things that should be done is we really need to stop being lazy and try to do stuff. stop littering, turn off water when not using, turn off lights, car pool and many more!!
JUNIOR 2011-2012 enviromental science :)
helooooo :) my name is sydni! I’m a junior at glhs and I’m in environmental science with Mr. bruns!! I am 15 years old! Yes i know i know I’m the baby of the group let’s not state the obvious! butttt i will be 16 this month WHOOP WHOOP lol umm things that i enjoy doing are singing and acting. I’ve been acting since i was 3 years old and the first time i sung in public was in 4th grade when i was like 8 :). I’ve sung in talent shows in 4th, 6th, 8th, and 10th grade. I’ve done plays at the Columbus children’s theater and at catco. I’m considered a professional actress because i have been paid for it! Plays that i have been in are like "Junie B. Jones", "The Best Christmas Pageant Ever", "School House Rock", "Midsummers Knight Dream", "The Piano Lesson", and many more. My favorite subjects in school would probably be science, English, and choir. I am taking Health class this year and i like that class too. My least favorite school subjects would be math and history (sometimes). I usually like all my classes so when i say "least favorite", those are the ones that are harder for me to pay attention too but when i know what I’m doing in each subject then it’s fun! UM I forgot to talk about my family, but I have 2 sisters and 1 brother London, 21, Salma, 6, and Das, 7. A cool thing about my younger brother and sister is that their dad (my stepdad) is from Nigeria which makes them half whatever my mom is (Because she’s a lot of stuff) and half Nigerian! Future goals that I have for myself would be to move to New York after I graduate because I HATE Ohio and I will attend a performing arts school! Obviously I want to be in the entertainment industry for singing and acting. Something else that I really want to do is go to culinary school which is the total opposite of performing arts but I refuse to eat at fast food restaurants for the rest of my life! My expectations are to just have fun this year, to make good grades in all my classes, and to make it a great year! I hope that we have fun in environmental science this year class of 2013 lets do big things J

Twilight: What Is Love
Dear Reader,
Welcome to the world of vampires, danger, and romance. You will find all kinds of different things that go with the theme of love from the story in Twilight written by Stephanie Meyers. The reason I chose the theme love for my book, is because the two major characters in the book are very much in love with each other. The love that they have for each other is very strong. The problem is that Edward, a vampire and Bella, a human are madly in love with each other and can’t stay away from one another for a long period of time. Something just as simple as Edwards touch can make Bella weak, and nausea. Something just as simple as a peck on the lips can set Edward off at anytime, causing him to kill her from wanting her blood. Love is the thing that is making everything so difficult for Edward and dangerous for Bella. Although Edward wants Bella to leave him because he knows the danger he can put her in, she can’t leave and she won’t because the love that she has for Edward makes the fact that he is a vampire seem normal. In this post, you will find a free verse poem explaining love, a two voice poem between Edward and Bella, A wanted poster, and 10 ways to know if you are In love. I hope this trip to the world of vampires, danger, and romance fills you with just as much excitement and thrill than it does for Bella and Edward.
Sincerely,
Sydni
I'm the world's most dangerous predator. Everything about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I would need any of that. As if you could outrun me. As if you could fight me off. I'm designed to kill. –Edward Cullen |
What is love?
It doesn’t matter who you are or what you have become
No matter how old you are or where you have come from
Doesn’t matter how you look, no matter the color of your skin
Love has a mind of its own and will walk its way right in
You really can’t fight it; you can’t avoid how you feel
It controls your train of thought, makes things seem unreal.
It makes you want to do things you’ve never done before
Makes you want to touch the sky, makes you want to soar
The simple thought of evil doesn’t make you scared
If the one you love is a mysterious creature you won’t even care.
If the one you love is dangerous, you won’t show any fear
The one you love makes you faint every time they come near
When that person comes around, for them your love will grow
And no matter what you two go through you’ll never let each other go.
I know what you are. You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is
pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color and you never eat or
come out into the sun.
pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change color and you never eat or
come out into the sun.
-Bella Swan
I LOVE YOU
EDWARD: You are human BELLA: You are a vampire
I cant be near you Please dont leave me
I love you
Your not like the others Theres nothing you cant do
I cant read your mind I cant find an imperfection in you
I love you
Im way to dangerous for you Im not afraid of you
You're too fragile You're so strong
I love you
I want your blood I want you
But I cant have it.
Ill never leave you, im not going anywhere
ill be here forever
I love you
I only said it would be better if we weren't friends, not that I didn't want to be. -Edward 10 ways to know if your in love 1. when that persons around you get extra nervous but still comfortable at the same time 2. you can tell that person any and everything 3. The moment that person leaves, thats the only one your thinking about 4. you take any risk possible to be with that person 5. No matter what they do you are always there 6.Everything you do reminds you of that person 7. you cant go a day without talking to or seeing that person 8. when reading this that certain person came to mind ;) 9. out of all the places in the world, you would only want to be where that person is 10. if its someone as creepy as a vampire, that wouldn't mean anything to you. I've never given much thought to how I would die. But dying in the place of someone I love seems like a good way to go. -Bella Wanted: For The Stealing of Isabella Swans Heart known to look like this: Name: Edward Cullen Age:17 Reward: $10,000 from the father of Isabella Swan Charlie Swan: Police officer of Forks, Washington any questions call him (577)-837-0083 Don't be afraid. I promise ... I swear not to hurt you.-Edward Cullen My Reflection I think this project was actually really fun, because i really did enjoy my book. The reason for me choosing the theme "love" was because i feel that it was definitely a main part of my book. The first genre that i did was a poem on love. i wanted to start my blog out letting people know what they were about to see as they went on into my blog, so i made a poem explaining in my opinion what love is and what it will cause you to do. The second genre i did was a free verse poem that was between the main characters in my book, Bella and Edward. I chose to do this because i wanted the reader to see the two different perspectives when it came to loving each other and how they both in love, but it was a very difficult situation. The third genre i did was 10 ways to know if... your in love I chose to do this one because i thought it was a fun one and another way of showing all the things Bella had did throughout the book showing that she was in love with Edward. The final Genre that i chose to do was a "Wanted Poster" I chose to do this because i felt that a lot of people wouldn't really do it. I made it so that Edward was wanted for stealing Bella's heart. Not necessarily that its a bad thing for Bella but that it was a bad thing for the dad. I was showing how he was protective over Bella. I think the most difficult part was actually figuring out the "3rd genre" that i was going to do, but i ended up figuring it out. Other than that, i thought the project was very fun and pretty simple. It took a lot of time to do but for the most part, it wasn't really that bad. Im actually happy that we did it on a blog this year. I thought it was way easier this way and it definitely saved a lot of time in my opinion!! :) |

Confident, Fearless, Successful
Mr. Smith was telling the science class about the photosynthesis formula equation and the respiration equation. Everybody seemed very interested into what Mr. Smith was saying: Except for Jarmaine. The only thing Jarmaine seemed to think about was becoming a superstar and getting out of her school. Jarmaine was pretty well-known in her sophomore class. She absolutely loved to sing and also act. She sung in talent shows in 6th and 8th grade and she put videos up of her singing on her "sightredd", which is a site where you basically chat and share things with her friends. She was too afraid to put videos up of her singing on youtube though. When the bell rang, she switched classes and all the way down the hallway she thought to herself, "man i just cant wait to get outta here!!!". She got to her English class and her English teacher Mr. Jones wanted the students to talk about their future and what they planned on doing. the top answers for the girls were nurse and vets, and the top answers for the boys were NFL player and NBA player. They got around to Jarmaine,"ummm i wanna be a famous singer and actress". the whole class gave her a funny look and her teacher chuckled. "haha Jarmaine lets stick to reality here", Mr suggested. This made Jarmaine want to cry, but also wanted her to prove her peers wrong even more. Once Jarmaine got out of English, it was time to go home. she walked home from school and began to think about what her classmates and teacher had said. This had made her cry and she walked with her head down. When she looked up, the whole neighborhood had felt weird. No one was outside and it was dark. The wind began to blow very hard and she struggled to see. She heard a raspy, grown woman voice "Jarmaine, come here" Jarmaine looked up and seen a floating sparkly black blur close ahead. She got scared and turned the other way. When she turned around the sparkly blur was in front of her face! Jarmaine goes to run but the blur grabs her book-bag. "No wait Jarmaine, im here to help you!!" "Are you a Jeanie?" Jarmaine asked. " "umm yeah something like that. well on to the point, i see that your having some problems at school and at home getting people to believe in you!! so im gonna give you two wishes" "really?? ummm how am i suppose to believe you?" Jarmaine said with a puzzled look. "How else would i know your life story...plus im floating in midair, what more of a clue do you want girl!!" the sparkly Jeanie said "okay, fine. i wish that you can give my parents and friends the ability to believe in me" "okay done!!" an awkward silence occurs.. Jarmaine then spoke up "umm thats all?" "yep!! bye!!" Just like that the blur was gone and Jarmaine walked home still thinking about what the heck had just happened. Jarmaine walked in the house and her family was watching a special on her celebrity singing teen sensation crush. Jarmaine dropped her bags and watched with a sparkle in her eye. "ugh the day i meet him will be wonderful!! we WILL do a song together" Jarmaine screamed in excitement,"Oh Jarmaine when will you stop!!!!! stick to reality. do you know how many people want to meet him?? there not going to, and neither are you!! sad but true. im sorry it has to be that way. start thinking about a career you can actually do please" her mom scolded. Jarmaine waited until she got to her room and started to cry! she fell asleep and didn't wake up till the next morning. She got up and was very irritated about having to go to school, especially sense it was spirit week and she had no type of spirit. later on that day there was a pep rally, and they were having a karaoke contest. "WHO IS COMING DOWN TO SING!!!" the principal shouted. "Jarmaine go!!!!" her friend Kelsey insisted "no Kelsey i dont waaaaa..." next thing Jarmaine knew, she felt a shrug and Kelsey had pushed her off the bleacher and on to the gym floor. the teacher gave her the Mic and told her to pick a song. Jarmaine picked her celeb teen crush song "my girl" and she was very nervous. the first few notes were a little off but then she let go of her nerves and turned them into excitement! She blew the crowd away and she even won the contest. She felt soo good about herself and didn't wanna stop singing. After the Rally it was time to go. She got out the gym door and was approached by about 30 people. "Jarmaine that was amazing you will become a star someday" is what a lot of them said. Jarmaine walked home with the biggest smile ever. She had soooo much confidence and was ready to sing some more. She stepped into the house, set her family on the couch and told them what had happened . She then broke out in song singing "my girl" showing them what she had sung for her school. "WOW, Jarmaine that is wonderful honey, i am soooo proud of you. You ARE the worlds next big star!!" Jarmaine was soo excited! she ran upstairs and picked out her outfit for the next day. When she opened up the closet the sparkly jeenie popped out. "oh my gosh jeenie thank you soooo much, you made my family and peers believe in me" Jarmaine shouted "awe shucks, no problem!! you still have a second wish girl!!" "ummm i wish that you can get a talent scout to get me to where i wanna be" "k, its done" "omg ughh im actually gonna get this!!!?" Jarmaine questioned "yep!!!!!bye!!" Once again the Jeanie disappeared. Jarmaine lay across her bed with a smile on her face so thankful for her Jeanie. Jarmaine s sister came into the room "hey i video taped you today and girl your so good!! im going to put it on youtube" "NOOOO, YOU CANT! "Why not" "ughh im scared people wont like me" Jarmaine mumbled "ugh J, people aren't gonna like you and people will love you thats life...what matters is if you love you!" Jarmaine took her sisters words to heart and decided to face her fear. they put the video up on youtube and it was a hit!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 weeks went buy and Jarmaine already had almost 900,000 views. 1,456 likes and 459 dislikes. the dislikes didn't phase her at all, it would have 2 weeks ago though, but her sister really helped her realize that as long as she loved her self and was satisfied when what she did, then nothing else mattered. Jarmaine had looked at her messages and had gotten one from a man who claimed to be a talent scout. He wanted her to fly out to California tomorrow to audition to be singed by a record deal because he thought her voice was very unique. He also said that if she didn't believe him that she could call around about him. Jarmaine s heart stopped and she just started to scream. She ran to her mother and told her the news. Her mother read the letter and agreed to going and told the whole family to pack up. Jarmaine was so overwhelmed on how fast things were going, She was soo excited and she just had to thank her Jeanie for helping so she called on her and the Jeanie appeared. "Jeanie, it worked!!! im flying out to California tom. this was nobody but you and i thank you so much. You gave my family and peers the ability to believe in me and you found a talent scout for me!!!!" Jarmaine told the Jeanie. the Jeanie then replied "haha oh Jarmaine your welcome!! but i cannot take the credit for what your thanking me for." Jarmaine gave her a puzzled look "umm what do you mean, yes you can" "no silly, i only set up situations where it seemed like i granted your wish. i came to help you bring out the greatest qualities in you. i gave you a situation where you had the confidence to sing in front of your family and peers that got them to see your true talent. I gave you a situation where you brought the fear out of you causing you to put up a video of your singing on a website that talent scouts visit, and now you will be very successful in everything you do" with that being said, the Jeanie left and Jarmaine just stood there she felt so great about herself knowing that because of her Jeanie she will always be Confident, Fearless, and Successful.

waste of time!!!
well, i dont play a sport or do anything extra really after school....i do my homework usually the day its assigned at school..so when i get home i usually just tweet my life away on twitter....which is a definate waste of time in my opinion ill look up and it will be 7:00. another thing i do to waste my time would be watching tv. I watch at least 5-7 movies a week...sometimes more because sometimes my little sister wants me to watch a kids movie with her. like as i am typing this i am watching a tinker bell movie with her, because i have to be somewhere at 5 and i have nothing else to do with my life for the next 5 hours lol. also when i go to school with my mom, i bring my ipod with me and play angry birds. it REALLY does waste my time. i just keep playing, and playing, and..PLAYING. lol ill even tell myself "ok, when you pass this level thats all for the day" and then i pass the level and try out the next one and i find my self saying once again, "ok, when you pass this level thats all for the day". This is a never ending cycle for me until my moms class is over. on saturdays when im bored and i have nothing to do with my life (let me first say that i am a fashionista, i love makeup, i love doing nails, and i love doing hair, and i LOVE to sing.) i get on youtube and look up how makeup gurus on youtube do their makeup, or ill look up how people do nail designs, or looking up peoples reviews for what they put in their hair to define their natural curls, and since i was younger ive just looked up the instrumental songs and sing my life away because i have nothing else to do lol. ill even have an imaginary mic in my hand and just act like im performing or im famous or something (i probably ...actually i KNOW i would look crazy if someone would have seen me, but i dont care cause thats my dream. lol) but yeah, ill look up at clock and it will be time to go to bed!!!!!!!!! so yea all those things are really a waste of my time...well with an exception of the singing. lol but yeah in english it was kind of a drag this week because we had to read, and i dont really like to read that much when its over something that i dont care about...but we did play a fun game on friday!!! this weekend i went to the movies and seen justin bieber 3d...and i went to the movie thinkin that he was kinda cute i liked voice..ya know not anything serious....i left that movie with bieber fever. lol haha so now im convinced that i WILL marry him one day...that it all :)

mr potter, when you read this remember to announce to the class that they need to follow me...i have 4 followers.!!!!! lol ok so in english we talked about commas, and semicolons and colons and all that good stuff...well bad stuff lol..i was kind of confused on it. but when it came down to the actual quiz i got a 33 out of 36 + 8 BONUS POINTS!!!!!!! yay :) and for the next like 15 weeks of school, im gonna remember to do my blogs :) but in this blog im gonna talk about all of my favorite cartoons growing up. so when i was younger, i was into the puppet shows well not puppets but whatever you call the sesame street people and Barney. lol but then i also like blues clues. i would actually sit down with my own little note pad and draw the clues with Steve!! :) then they got rid of Steve and replaced him with some dude named Joe....so i stopped watching it. i also enjoyed rug-rats; that was my favorite show!!!!!!. i loved tommy and my mom said i had a crush on chucky. Phil and Lil use to gross me out and angelica was a little brat and i was scared of her. lol and in the beginning when they show what the show was going to be about, i remember always asking my mom to read to me what they said on the show. cat dog was another one of my favorites i use to want a cat/dog for my pet. um hmmmmm i also liked hey Arnold as i got older; i loved how Helga loved Arnold but she would never tell anybody and she had a little room filled with all is stuff...and he had a football head hahahahaha. power puff girls was also a favorite of mines growing up. my favorite was buttercup because she was hard core..my dad got me a costume for Christmas with the little wig and everything. lol but the show that beats everything and what i still watch today is........"SPONGEBOB!!!" i loved sponge-bob man. i remember when it came out i had a spongebob themed birthday party and it was the best lol. i love spongebob he is so funny lol. Patrick use to crack me up with his non-fingers and toes. I use to love when bad things happened to squidward because he was always mean to spongebob and Patrick :) plankton was halarious!! when they were singing the "F-U-N" song, and spongebob sung "F is for Friends who do stuff together, U is for yoU and ME. N is for aNywhere at anytime at all down here in the deep blue sea" (thats probably not the words) and then plankton says "F is for Fire burn down the whole town U is for uranium...BOMB, N is for NO survivors when you..." and then spongebob yells "STOP" ughh haahah classic. or when they sell chocolate and that old lady that is like a little tadpole with hair hahahahaahaha ima put a picture up and im gonna put some videos up of my favorite spongebob moments. i also liked the fairly oddparents!! but yeah thats about it, theres plenty more but my hands hurt and i hope this was 15 minutes!!!!! but yea....BYE, lol
