1) The ted talk I watched is called "The danger of Silence" by Clint Smith. It's basically about how the danger of keeping yourself silent can hurt you or hurt others. What this means is that there are situations where something wrong happens in front of us but we don't say or do anything about it because we're too busy focusing on ourselves. For example: the guy used an example saying that once he was walking down a road and he found a homeless guy but he didn't care about him because he was too busy on his phone , so then he felt bad for doing it and he realised it was wrong.

2) I chose this video because I thought this topic was interesting to hear about and maybe I can learn something new from it. I also realised this is something that is actually happening but we don't really pay attention to.

Clint Smith seemed passionate about his topic because he used some personal experiences. He also seemed very confident while he was taking in front of  big group of people. he looked very into his topic and he was really detailed.

3) My personal opinion on this ted talk topic I watched was that I agree with what the guy said. I thought it was correct in saying "silence can be dangerous sometimes. I think this is right because there a lot of cases where we see wrong things happen with our friends , family or anyone but we don't say or do anything about it. for example: there's a bisexual friend and he/she are getting bullied about it then I should say something , otherwise it can lead to more problems. 


4) I still don't know what I want to choose for my project. I've been thinking about it but I can't find a good idea. I want to choose a good topic that will keep me focused and make me excited. I was going to do something with horse riding but then I released that wasn't the best idea. I also wanted to do something about cooking healthy recipes but I knew this is going to be hard for me. Also I would be too lazy to actually cook something. I also don't have that much free time to al this. That’s why I want to choose something that will actually make me happy and make me want to work on.

What are my thoughts on this project ? I still don't know what I want to choose for my project. It will most likely be something on my hobbies or something I really enjoy doing. I really want to do something that will make me excited for it and keep me working at all time.         Photo credit:: Valerie Everett  What are my questions about this class ?  I don't really have any questions for this class but I'm still a bit confused on what we're really supposed to do. I understand that we have to choose a project that will " make us come alive " but I don't really know what to choose. Otherwise I feel that this class will be great. What am I excited about ? I'm excited for this class soo much because we have more freedom then we normally do in other classes. Normally in other classes we always have to do what the teachers tell us and we don't really have a choice. I'm excited for being able to choose my own topic an...

When I'm grown up....

So far in the world theirs lots of pollution. Humans are using Lots of energy and burning fossil fuels . There is going to be a day when we basically run out of everything. When I'm grown up maybe everything is going to change and the way things work. I think that we won't have that much energy that we do now. Maybe we won't be able to have transportation running the way it is. I still hope that we still have transportation by that time. Also people stop polluting and wasting energy. I also think that our houses will look way different then they do now. Maybe we won't be able to live in big houses and we won't have that much electricity. My house might run on 50% renewable enegery and 50% non renewable. The roof might be made of solar panels and that would help.
