Another day of our Human Geography  class has gone by, where we have discussed different locations of the world and how they differ from others. For example, an example of our different locations was me. I live in Cecil County where most of the kids in my class live in Harford County. Most of us have probably been to Cecil County, but if you haven't this is what it is like. Cecil County is more trees and grass land, while Harford County is more houses and buildings. This means that I most likely have more land than those who live in Harford County. I don't live in a neighborhood, when the majority of you guys do. However, I don't live close to the things I would like to be closer to like school, shops, restaurants, etc. Cecil County is kind of like the boonies to you guys if you think about it. Our pay is also very different. The taxes in Cecil for land are not as much as in Harford County. That is why we are able to have more land and still be able to pay for it. Most people in Harford don't have acres of land because a lot more people live in that county, therefore more money.

Today in human geography class we went over expected questions that should be on the exam. We were also fortunate enough to receive what the essay question will be on the exam. We went over it and it has made me feel more prepared for this exam. I will definitely be studying that, it should be a few easy points. I'm glad we had this "review day" before exams, I think it really has helped me in order to successfully pass the test. At least I hope so....

Today in human geography class, we discussed the different parts of a country. Throughout the class we realized what important features make up a country. For example, a nation is a group of people who share similar things like religion, language, and other cultural similarities. We also discussed how our culture has changed. An example would be fast food. During Mr. Schick's childhood, there was probably only just beginning a McDonald's. This McDonald's also wasn't even a drive-thru, but you walked in and then got your food in minutes. Today we have tons of fast food restaurants. Another cultural quality that has changed is sundays. For many Sundays were seen as a rest day. Therefore, many buuildings weren't open. Today we see this only rarely. Banks, and a Chick-fil-a. This is what we learned in class today.

Today in human geography class, we took our world leaders test. I think I did okay, but not great. I need to do good on this, or else my grade will go down and I won't make the A I was aiming for in this class. If not...well there is always next quarter. I think to get all A's in every class, I need to step up my studying and get everything right in my head. I'm tired of half studying and not knowing whether or not I will pass or do good on a test.
