2) The Lost Boys couldn't stay in Ethiopia because the government collapsed.
3) Life in the refugee camp was hard, with little food they sang songs to entertain themselves.

Google Day

Today in class we went to Google and mapped out where everyone's grandparents and great grandparents were born. The shadows read Brewale's paper and it was really fun.

Break Essay

Clark Grube
Hum Geo Project

            In the next ten years I’ll be trying to start to get a job and start a family. There are many places I could do that but one place that I would love to go to is Miami. I think Miami would be a great place to live because there is a large population so many people probably start a family there and also a great place for business. It is a major center for commerce, finance, and has a strong business community. Miami has a tropical monsoon climate so it is hot and humid during the summer and warm during the winter. The Miami-Dade County Public School district is the fourth largest in the world and is used to handling many children and could do a good job teaching mine. Miami is also home to many private schools that are among the best private schools in the country. One problem would be that about 66% of Miami listed their primary language as Spanish and I speak English so I would have to overcome the language problem. Another problem would be that Miami is ranked second-to-last in people over 18 with a high school diploma.
            Another place I wouldn’t mind living in would have to be Australia. Australia has a free-market economy with a high GDP per capita and a low rate of poverty. Australia has the world’s thirteenth biggest economy. Most of Australia is semi-arid or desert but includes a wide range of habitats from alpine heaths to tropical rainforests. The army in Australia is good and also receives help from the U.S. plus I don’t think Australia has any beef with any other countries like Iran, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. They also speak a different language so that would be a problem but I would love having the great Outback in my backyard.
