Happy People

I learned that happiness directly correlates to success and health. I've always thought if you're happy, success will come. Scientists actually found that if you're happy, success is more likely to come in life. Also if you're successful, happiness will come too. Happiness also positively affects health. If you're happier, your blood pressure and resting heart rate are generally less and cardiovascular activity stays normal. This is how happiness benefits our lives.

Cyberbullying

Cyberbullying is when a child or teen is bullied by another child or teen over the internet. It can happen to anyone, so people should always be careful online. Cyberbullying is just as bad, if not worse than bullying in person. It is easier than bullying in person because the bully does not have to see you in person when harassing you. If you or a friend is being bullied online, tell a trusted adult. You can also confront the bully and tell him him/her to stop. The adult will help you or your friend. Remember cyberbullying is the same as bullying, so tell someone if it happens to you or a friend.

Project that I Learned From

When learning, I tend to prefer class discussions on ideas that are presented to us. The teacher pounds the material into our heads with notes and forces memorization. One project we did in computers, though, introduced a totally knew concept called Google Sketch-up. The program allows you to create 3D images interactively. We were assigned to create a 3D model of the Parthenon, which dumbfounded me because I can't even draw a tree. Our teacher told us to use a cite called Atomic Learning, which showed us step-by-step how to create the seemingly impossible model. I finished it, learning how to use Google Sketch-up and the Atomic Learning cite to further my understanding of computers.
