During my first Humanities class, during freshman year. We learned about the sustainable development goals set by the united nations. We focused on goal one, no poverty. Goal two, zero hunger. Goal three, quality education. We took a trip to the Lincoln Park Community Shelter to learn about the effects of the limited resources in our neighborhood. We then cooked them lunch to show gratitude and thanks for allowing us to enter into the community that they have formed. My end unit project is focusing on ending extreme poverty and whether adequate shelter, health care, and free primary and secondary school should be a human right. Each year, the homeless costs the government almost $50,000 per person, according to the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development. That is more spent per person than some people below the poverty line make. People should not have to endure a life of poverty.

My nearest water source is 3.36 miles away, that would take me an hour and ten minutes to walk to the river to collect water. It would take me about 3 and 30 minutes to walk back with more than 3 gallons of water in my hands. It would take 3 times as long if I was carrying water. I calculated this by taking the time it took to walk from our school to the river without water, and then I compared it to the time walking from the river to the school with water. When we did not have water, it took 6 minutes to walk from school to the river. When we did have water, it took us 18 minutes which is three times as long walking without water. The average person in the USA uses 152 gallons a day. That is 575 liters and is equal to 1267.68 pounds. The average person in the UK uses 150 liters a day. That is about 40 gallons and is equal to 333.6 pounds. Many people think that the UK has a lot of different places and a lot of different people. But after studying the water usage of people all ove...

In my high school orientation, we were asked to describe the neighborhood we came from. I consider, which neighborhoods did I come?

I love Pitbulls! When I was born, I was welcomed home by the warmth of two Pitbull mixes. They ended up becoming my best friends from day one. After 10 years, and 5 new human additions to my family. We continue to have Pitbulls that will protect and cuddle with my family till the end of time.   Mallory Bertand and Photography, Ddog09.  Lilac tricolor American bully.  (2015) Web: Wikipedia CH.
