Today in human geography class, we discussed questions that we wrote on our blog last night, and decided whether they were good enough to be a question asked on the test. After this we took pictures of the list that was on Mr. Schick's board. These are going to be the test questions according to him. In all honesty, when I heard we were having a quiz the last few days of the quarter, I was confused. What was the test going to be one? Had we learned enough to be having a test?

In my opinion, I think at this age we are too young and immature to be asked and vote for political affairs, because honestly everyone would just think the same as their parents. You hear kids arguing politically, but you know it's just them tal...
