Einsteinium Ghiorso Research Paper

Decent Essays
I was born in Vallejo, California, looking back on the war I really don’t remember anything that happened seeing how I was just born a few days before, all I know is that my dad gave me up, don’t know why and I don’t really care. I honestly don’t even know if I should call him “my dad”, many of you probably know him. His real name is Albert Ghiorso, but everyone calls him Stein-Man and that’s why he decided to name me Einsteinium Ghiorso. Albert or Stein-Man is a super hero and he is the one that helped us win the war because of his creation of Einsteinium, after I was born he took my blood to help make the bomb that saved our nation. Sometimes I wonder if he didn’t mean to give me up but maybe he was trying to protect me since he wouldn’t have known how to raise me, but anyway I think about it, I still get mad in the end. …show more content…
He wrote a letter to my foster parents and told them to give it to me before I was 18. I got the letter last year and it explained that I probably have his superhero blood in me, but I just ignored that because I am not a hero, I am a villain. My costume is going to be gray/sliver because when I was born everyone said I had gray hair, that’s another thing I discovered in the letter that my dad couldn’t give to me in person. People don’t know about my plan to become a villain, they automatically assume that I will follow in my dad’s footsteps which I promise you will not happen. When I walk around town people call my by my name, Einsteinium which is what they should do, but when I take over the world I don’t want to think about my dad or the people that believed in me. That is the reason my name will be Ginsteinium, and there is no way to convince me other wise of my decision, it is final and my plan is in

The two long-lasting impacts of the invention of the atomic bomb includes setting a costly race of developing nuclear weapons between nations and transforming private lack-of -funding…

    Sunlight seeped through the window onto my old worn out chair. I had fallen asleep there from the night before, drifting away in my thoughts about all I had done when I was young. I was so proud and satisfied with what I had accomplished, and even though most of the world looked at me as a monster, I couldn't be more proud about who I was. I had escaped from my worst nightmare, and ended up in an old dilapidated apartment in southern Argentina. My name, Josef Mengele, was on countless kill lists, and my head was worth thousands if it was brought back, but in my opinion I had made that task impossible.…

    In Aristotle and Dante Discover The Secrets Of The Universe, the author, Benjamin Alire Sáenz, describes the journey of two friends, Aristotle “Ari” and Dante, in the late 1980’s in El Paso, Texas.
