Class today was very educational. I learned about the several hardships students go through in high school. I'm sure the main problem was sleep. I haven't met a single student who says they get enough sleep. Each day students have about an hour or maybe two hours of homework. Most students in the school are in after school activities. Having that much work to do extremely affects the body and mind. I personally don't get enough sleep. On an average day I get home around 7:00 pm after practice. By then the sun is going down but i still need to get started on my work. The way it's going for classes I'll be finishing my homework around 10:00 at night. That only leaves me with 8 hrs of sleep. I need more sleep than that, since I'm practicing everyday. The pressure of private school is also a major factor of stress for students. In public school teachers could randomly choose a day when the students have no work to do. But in private schools everyday is new work that must be done. Although i was expecting this since the tuition is high, I didn't think it would be on this level. Truthfully I somewhat enjoy the busy schedule. In public school I always had a feeling something was missing. Like I could always do more, I guess this school was the right choice for me.

Option C

Option C: Consider our studies of fertility (which include data on CBR and TFR) and mortality (CDR, Infant Mortality Rate, Life Expectancy, and Rate of Natural Increase). Describe the four (or five) stages of the Demographic Transition, beginning with the Industrial Revolution, proceeding to the present day, and projecting into the future. Be sure to discuss individual countries as you describe the different stages. In the world every country will go through a series of stages. They can delay what happens, but they can’t avoid it. The series of stages have been mapped out for us on the demographic transition. There are 4 or maybe 5 stages every country will go through. Each one is different in its own way. The first stage is the beginning for the countries. This is before the industrial revolution, but during the time when people were still hunters and gatherers. They would go out and hunt any food they could find. The country will have a high birth rate, high death rate, and a l...

Class today was easy. We finished the slide show of the longitude and latitude lines. The quiz is tomorrow but I really need to study. South America is full of countries unlike the U.S. We have states united to form a country. Since they're united states they technically have a right to leave and form its own country. That's a completely crazy idea to think about. Imagine the state of Rhode Island leaving the states. We would have a tiny nation right next to us and they could declare war. To me the idea of Rhode Island fighting is very funny. But the scary idea is Texas leaving us. Texas is a major powerhouse with a huge population. They could easily take over the states next to it. The only ones able to stand a chance against Texas would be California. I would pay to see that battle. I'm betting money Texas is going to win.
