The Magic of Disney
It was in the middle of July on a warm day and excitement filled our car. My family and I were on our way to Disney World and I was excited as a puppy. I did not, I repeat, did not like being stuck in the car because I was so close but so far.
When we came through the gate to Disney I felt relieved, I was finally here at last. It wasn’t time to relax yet though we still had to set up camp. After we set camp we went to the golf cart rentals and selected a 4 person cart. Later we went to magic kingdom and watched a extradent, bright parade at 10 p.m. then at 11 we watched the fireworks go in a colorful, amazing blaze of shapes.
The next day my I was determined to go all the parks and get as many autographs as I could ,so we decided that we would go to epcot. We got on the bus filled with excitement ready to be at the park . When we arrived there, the first thing we saw was the mexico exhibit and it was an incredible Aztec Pyramid and in the pyramid were woman making blankets and bold Aztec warriors. There was even a place where they sold fresh tortillas. Next in the Japanese part I saw an impressive Japanese house with people outside teaching you how to do origami. Next in the Irish part there was an old,rotten viking ship about 20 ft. long and 7 ft. wide. Also there was an old viking ship ride that goes up and down. Last in Germany, I was really excited about this part, there was food, music, desserts, and fau sausages.
The next day, we went to animal kingdom where we got autographs from mickey, minnie, donald, and all the other main ones. Then we went and saw the world’s biggest tree and some safari animals .
The last day we went to Disney’s Hollywood Studios and saw a movie which I came running out of the theater when the millions of rats came,(by the way the movie was 3d). After the movie we went to the international soda fountain with over a hundred soda choices. Later we went to the star wars area and what do you know, it was the star wars marathon so some clones came over and flirted with my sister,(“by the way I was mad as a hornet”). We just kept walking though, then we came to a ride that makes you feel like you were in a ship from star wars.
I am glad that I went on this trip so I could learn a simple rule “anyone can have fun but only families can have memories” and so I could spend some quality time with my family. The music, food, and the nightlife of the park , and the bright fireworks ,the giant white castle, and kindness of the people. I will never forget this experience.

The value of touch
I believe that the sense of touch is the most important sense that I have since you can substitute touch for sight by reading with special books that you feel. You can can substitute hearing by feeling vibrations, Beethoven felt vibration and played the piano. I believe touch is the best because if someone showed you emotion you wouldn’t know. That’s why I think touch is the best.
If I didn’t have the sense of touch then I wouldn’t know when I was being burned or if I was freezing. I wouldn’t feel a handshake of approval or a touch of emotion. Though the most important is I wouldn’t know if I was hurt, like a cut or a bite you wouldn’t know until your vision fade or there’s pain your head. That’s why I believe touch is the most important of the five senses.
Einstien, The Famous Genius
On March 14, 1879 Einstein was born; in 1880 he moved to Munich from Ulm in Germany. In Munich his father and Uncle opened an electrical equipment company. In 1894 his fathers company failed causing them to move to Italy, later in his later years he visited the U.S, while he was there the war started so he stayed to help the allied force.
I feel were similar because we both love math and science, also we both like to work with equations. We also like to work with nuclear energy. We were different because I like to use science and equations but he liked to study mechanical energy and create equations to help the world. The reason he’s my hero is because his honesty, respect to others, and how his generosity of how he gave so much to science.
Einstein created many equations but his most famous was his mass-energy equivalence formula E=mc2 giving him the 1921 Nobel Prize in physics. He also created many other equations like quantum theory, particle theory and motion of molecules. He also worked with nuclear energy with a group of scientist, this was the Manhattan project. Also a quote he often said was before god we are all equally wise and equally foolish.
His influence on me is huge because when I fail, I think of how many times Einstein failed before he got equations correct. Also he knew that he had to make a sacrifice by leaving his wife kids because he was stated wanted dead in magazines and there was a $5000 reward on his head.He also knew which side he needed to support; the Allies so he warned Franklin D. Roosevelt about the Atomic bomb the Natzis were creating letting us save millions of lives.
His influence on my life involving math and science and his respect for others is why he’s my hero.
A Day in Epcot
Three days in Disney and today we’re going to Epcot. This morning we woke up, devoured our breakfast, and drove off in our golf cart to the Disney bus station. It took 15 min. for a bus to come. While we were on the bus we wondered what today had in store for us.
When we arrived at Epcot the first country we saw was Mexico and an Aztec pyramid, when we went inside we saw a woman weaving a blanket. This blanket was as colorful as a rainbow, with a softness and pattern of the sky when it rained an hour before.
Next we went to a Irish stone building which was the start of the the Ireland section. In the building was a viking ship brought from the bottom of the ocean. The structure was all that remained of this proud ship. It was 15 ft. tall , 7 ft. wide and 25 ft. long. When we left the building there was a viking ship that went up and down.
In Germany we ate lunch an all you can eat buffet with strudels, cakes, pies, cookies, pastries, hash fries, Frau hi-an sausages, Frau steaks, and Ewe… red cabbage. The strudels were my favorite, the apple strudel … it just melted in my mouth every ounce of syrup was savory. The crust was warm, crunchy, and perfectly cooked and the apples were soft and had the perfect amount of sugar. Right then I thought of the phrase, Anywhere you go you can have fun.
