Today in class we talked about 9-11 and how it was just a devastating day in not only America but the world. to me 9-11 is more of like i learned about it from stories and people telling me because i wasn't old enough to remember back then i was to young when it happened. i feel whenever i read about it i just get more love for my country.

today in class we learned about Google documents. which i think are very cool. I like that you could be working on something from your house and someone else in their could click on and start work on from where they are. it is a good way to do group projects and not actually have to be in the same room as each other.

In Fridays class we talked about how a week newspaper in today time would be more then a person would learn in their whole entire life back in the 18th century I think it was. That fact just really stands out to me it is showing how great it is to be living in this time that you can just go on your phone and Google something then you have a million pages of what you Googled. I think i am very lucky for this technology.

Three facts that really stuck out to me in the shift happens video were
1. That the U.S. department of Labor estimates that today's learner will have 10-14 jobs.
That really sticks out to me because when it comes when I'm out of college and looking for a job I really don't want to be running from job to job and getting a new job every 4 months I want to get one job and stick wit it.
2. The second fact was the one of England in 1900. I fell that America could be that country, I mean I love our country and am very patriotic but America isn't the greatest country in the world anymore but we can be and we can be the best. We just need the right leadership.
3. The last fact was the 1 out of 6 couples last year married in the U.S. last year met online. That to me is kind of sad because it is saying that us as Americans have to do everything online. It is kind of showing that we are to lazy to go out and meet people I think the best way to meet someone is face to face.

Today we discussed about Socrates and his way of thinking that there was always another question to the answer. He would make you think deeper about things and truly understand. To me Socrates was a mans man he would stand up for what he believed. He was given a chance to apologize to the people but he was just like nah man I'm right your wrong now give me free dinner. Total bro move of him. At his death bed it was like dude give me the drink no big deal. He was just actually pretty bro and awesome.

Today in class we went over are homework from last night which was to find definitions on Greek words. When we were going over our homework, Mr. Schick finally realized that not a lot of people were precipitating in what we were doing. I understanded what the homework was about I mean I did but I put in more to the definition then I really needed.
