Today was our
last human geography class. It’s kind of sad. I really liked this class. You
always made it really fun and exciting. I have to admit I never really liked
social studies or whatever you call it, but I actually have fun in this class.
I wouldn’t change or make any comments to anything that you do because you did
a really good job teaching me. Towards the end of the semester I think I personally
did better. On our last test that we took today I got an 88! I am glad I finished
off the semester with a good test grade. In the beginning I had a little
trouble, but I got used to the tests and realized what I needed to study. Well
this is my last blog for human geography. Don’t worry though I have you next
semester so you’ll be hearing a lot more of my pretty cool blogs for Western
civilization.

Test and Movie
Today in human
geo we once again watched a little bit of the movie, Guns, Germs and Steel. Today
we just went over the big things that are going to be on our test. In the video
we went over the 14 animals that were domesticated and we had to write all of
them down. That’s the only thing we pretty much watched in the video. Then we
started going over the test and writing down thing that we would need to know
for Friday. We got asked the questions and we would write down the answers. We
went over the things for the test because tomorrow we don’t have class. Friday
is our last class learning Human Geography with you. It’s kind of sad because
human geo was fun, but that’s okay you get me next semester! I don’t know if
this is going to be our last blog or not, but if it is goodbye!

Test Friday
Today in human geo class we went over the movie that we
watched the other day. It was called Guns, Germs, and Steal. That was pretty
much all we did in class today, nothing else. We just shared what we thought
were some important facts to know about the movie. There was one fact that was
said which was that the people would cut down sago trees and combine them with
water to make dough. The only problem with the tree was that there was no
protein and it would go bad. That was the only fact I remember from today, but I
remember that I had already written down the other facts that were said.
Otherwise, we found out today that our test on urban geography is going to be
on Friday. I don’t really know what the test is going to be on and I don’t really
want to take a test if it’s going to lower my grade because at this point my
grade can’t be lowered. I think that pretty much covered what happened today.

Guns, Germs, and Steal
I agree with
Jared Diamond’s theory. His theory has to do with civilizations that were able
to thrive, form new cities, prosper, and why other cities weren’t able to
develop. I agree with it because cities did thrive and prosper, they did
develop, and they were successful. They don’t have some of the things we have,
but there cities did grow. They are successful in their own way. Here we are
successful in different way than the ways they are successful. If you get what I
mean there. I also agree with how he said some cities weren’t able to develop
because that is so true. Some cities weren’t able to prosper, thrive, and form
new cities. Some were able to thrive and prosper and they were the ones that
were successful. I think Jared Diamond’s theory is true because while watching
the movie and watching what they did, and how they did things, I agree with
him.

Urban Geography
So the other day in human geo class we took notes on urban
geography. We didn’t have that much class time because once again we had
another two hour delay. I really needed that two hour delay. I also need to
learn stuff though on urban geography because we have a test coming up and out
of all the tests we have taken, minus exams, this is the only one that I have
seriously needed to pass. I need to because I don’t want my grade to go down,
so I am going to study really hard for this test. I need all the facts I can
get though to pass. Otherwise, it was just a normal human geo day, but you were
also getting mad at us because we kept talking a lot. It’s the usual, getting
mad at us for talking. Well that’s basically all we did in class on Friday!

Back From Break!
Well were back from a two week break. I had a great break
and I hope you did too. So we are now starting a new unit. We are learning
about urban geography. We didn’t get much into detail today about it so I don’t
really know how to explain it right now. Today all we did was take a lot of
notes. Tomorrow now we don’t have school because of the winds and temperature.
It was weird because today we were actually talking about snow days. This day
off isn’t for a snow day though. Otherwise we had a long class today and we
talked about our exams. We got it curved by 3 points and I personally thought I
did better then what I got. We then have a test in urban geography the 15th
and that concludes our semester. Hopefully I am praying that I do well on that
test!
