U.S.A against Iraq

The war against Iraq from the beginning until now, there has been 16,000 to 17,000 American deaths and about 32,000 wounded. This war was caused by the Iraqs attack on the world trade center. This war started on March 19, 2003. The war is still going on today and no one knows exactly when it will end or who will win the war. The importance of this war is an event that affects our lives and future. An event that is going on today is something Americans should know about because of the struggles our family and nation goes through for a better place to live. A quote that Lieutenant Colonel Tim Collins said before they entered Iraq was "There may be people among us who will not see the end of this... We will put them in their sleeping bags and send them back, there will be no time for sorrow". Lieutenant Tim Collins said this quote and many more to let his soilders know whats ahead of them in this war and that it will be hard but they as Americans must be strong.

Something Historical

This is Gao and Shawn's first blog and we'll be talkin' bout history but really it's our past and it's very historical.

Gao- In my past when I was 5, there was a vacuum just sittin' there and I wanted to know how it worked. Once I found out how to turn it on I was observing it and then I put the tube in my mouth and it sucked out all the air from my lungs causing me to lose consiousness and I dropped to the floor I guess I woke up a couple seconds later but I was very light headed and confused to what just happened.

Shawn-When I was 4 years old my brother were biking around and I really wanted to learn so I asked my dad if he could teach me how to ride a bike and he said something that I don't remember but he said yes I guess. So he got this little tiny bike out that fit me and told me to coast down the drive way till I got my balance and there weren't training wheels so I would just fall on the cement and get cuts all of my legs and arms. So before the sun went down I was able to coast all the way down the drive way. I asked my dad what to do next and he said pedal. I was so retarded I didn't know how to pedal and ride at the same time. So it was like trying to coast down the drive way again but I learned how to the next day. Braking was a very big problem so a wall helped me stop.

Shawn-This was in the past but it was only but a year ago. I have some cousin's, brothers and friends go with me to this place called Sun Lakes but that's not where the fun really is at but that's just a well know place. Where we go is Deep Lake bout 2 miles down a road. When you get there you see people jumpin' off the small cliffs and the 30 footer but only half our group like to jump off that one so. I like to start off the 40 just to get use to the intense fall but I only get the thrill the first couple times then its just whatever till I get to a higher height. Well sadly I am afraid of heights and the only way for me to get over heights is to jump off a higher height. Well it only helps but the highest cliff I ever jumped off of was a 75 foot cliff and that was the last time I took more then 5 minutes to jump off of a cliff.
