Notes With the Sub

  • Geographers can describe the location by site, which is the physical character of a place. Important site characteristics include, climate, water sources, topography, soil, vegetation, latitude and elevation.
  • Situation- the location of a place relative to other places
Situation is a valuable way to indicate location, for two reasons:
1. Situation helps us to find an unfamiliar place by comparing its location with a familiar one
2. Situation helps us understand the importance of a location. For example, some places are important because they are accessible to other places due to their location.

Tropical Day

        Today was tropical/Hawaiian day. I wore my Diamond Pros jersey which is Hawaiian themed. Everyone that plays baseball and knew that my jersey was a DP jersey called me out for wearing it. At JC I had baseball practice today and it went very well. I hit a good hit with my wood bat which is good. In the field I made some good plays but I need to improve in the field. I have been hitting farther because I started doing weight training and that has made me stronger already in three weeks. I can't wait until the season starts because I am ready to roll even though it's October. After the JC practice I had to go to my weekly pitching lesson that I do during the off-season. I have been going to this coach for four years. He is a great coach and always knows how to help me improve my skill level.         In Honors Human Geography we had a good class. No one complained a whole lot like normal. When I first walked into the classroom this morning it was very cold. When I noticed

Slacking

        Alright so today I had a great day. But lately Ive been slacking on the blogs and its just because I keep forgetting about them because of there homework. Im going to start consistently doing them again. But today I woke up and ate a piece of cake for breakfast and went to school just like any other day except for the fact that it was out of uniform. I love out of uniform days because they are just so comfortable. I still love JC and it is going good. I'm getting closer with the baseball coaches and I'm getting to know them better.         I'm pretty upset because I found out that in the second semester I will no longer have Mr. Schick and all of my classmates. Mr. Schick is my favorite teacher and it sucks that I have to leave his class. Currently we are talking about population pyramids in class and its kind of scary to look into the future of the graphs. Its just really weird to see your generation go up and up and up and then gone. Today was a good day.

Test Day

        Today has been a successful day. I woke up and kind of rushed to get ready. I have been getting worse and worse at getting up in the morning. I think it is because it is getting to that time of year where it is dark out in the morning. I love being able to get up in the morning by myself and go to school by myself but it can be challenging. Tomorrow is the end of the quarter and I'm happy with my grades. I'm also happy because I have gotten perfect attendance for the quarter which has never happened to me before. It is good that I can walk to school now because I used to have a problem with being late and now it is almost impossible for me to be late. One day I accidentally got up at 7:27 and I still made it to school at 7:43. That day I thought I was going to be late but I rushed and pushed myself to go and I got up, took a 3 minute shower, took 5 minutes to get dressed, and another 3 minutes to get a glass of milk and brush my teeth. Once I was ready to go I sprinted
