On the first day, nearly 348 German bombers were sent to drop explosives throughout the metropolitan. 450 citizens died whilst leaving many homeless and injured. On average, approximately 700 tonnes of…

Camping is amazing. I remember the last time I went camping with my friends. I had the time of my life. We hiked the tallest hill to see the sunset. It was a difficult walk, but the view was marvelous. I cannot forget that beautiful sunrise. Those beautiful rays of color are one of my favorite camp memory. The memory is so vivid sometimes I wake up in the morning and check the sky simply to draw a layer of my old camping memory over the moment. The sun heating my cold body is a feeling worth…

Industrial Revolution Photo I’m analyzing a primary source photo of the Industrial Revolution. The photo is in black and white. The picture is centered on one person with a blurred background.

I Hate White People Throughout my years of schooling, I moved towns every year for seven consecutive years. With every new town came a new school, new friends, new teachers, and a new environment. I learned to adapt and am now extroverted because of it. However, the first day in a new school is always the most difficult because of the culture shock. The first day of the first grade, by far, was one of the worst experiences I’ve had. I was to be attending a private Christian school that had…

The United States joined the war on April 6, 1917, due to “Germany’s resumption of unrestricted submarine warfare (Hickman,1).” As result from the bloody war, the countries suffered from the lost of numerous casualties.
