Two-Paragraph Post

I think that in response to Mrs. VB's second question the answer is yes. Yes, it is worth investing in things like that because even though it looks like it's not benefiting anyone, it actually benefits our knowledge of how fragile or strong our planet is. In situations like these, the scientists that spend much of their lives trying to answer these questions are the ones who are happy because they take pride in doing what they do best. 
In the long run, I think that investigations like these help us understand more about "MOTHER EARTH" and how she works, for in the near future we can help impede many of the natural disasters that are happening now. I think that if there was a possibility to become part of these investigations, I would definitely want to be part of something of that magnitude.

I left messages on Kate's, Josh's, and Ryan's blogs because no one else from our class had done it.

"REFLECTIVE THINKING"

The transition from Biology to Honors Chemistry has been hard. During the first term, it was very difficult to adjust to the material since it is the first time I have studied anything about the elements or the periodic table. Throughout the first term, I struggled to grasp the material very well. However, now in the second term, I feel more confident that I will do well on the tests because after learning all the basics, the rest should come very easy.
