Change


Today I helped in making a change. By going to change.org I created an account so that I can sign petitions. To try and help make a difference. There are a lot of problems out there. And people do not know about most of them. So by creating an account, you can help. To make some of these problems noticed and possibly fixed or changed. It does not take much to help make a change.  

The Great Debaters


The great debaters is a well meaning story. It a drama based on a true story. Melvin B a professor at Wiley College Texas played by Denzel Washington. The professor starts a debate team in 1935. In the world of debate, you have to carefully pick and deliver the words in order to win. He pushed them very hard and helped get them get many victories. They won most of there local debates. They got to go up against Harvard in a National Championship, and they won. "We do what we have to do in order to do what we want to do (Farmer James Jr.)." I would give this movie four stars out of five. I think its a very interesting movie. The actors did a very good job. Making you feel like you are there with them. Felling everything they do; pain,happiness, hurt,confusion,success.

Diego Rivera

The painting is named Muchacha con Girasoles painted by Diego Rivera. The named translated in English is Girl with Sunflowers. As you can see in this picture there is a girl with a vase of sunflowers. It looks like the young girl is fixing a vase of sunflowers. All the colors are very vibrant.The mood is good the girl seems focused. She focused because shes trying to fix the flower. There is a lot of flowers and the vase is full of the flower roots. Can i see this painting in my house? Yes maybe its very bright and refreshing.

The moral of this story is that a young boy is wlaking along the beach picking up starfish. By doing so he ih saving there lifes because the shore is low. Even if he can save every single starfish the ones he did throw back he did make a difference to them. So the moral is you can help make a change no matter how little the deed is.
