human geo

differences between my culture and the culture in india shown in slum dog millionaire

i grew up in a peaceful culture and not a violent one
i live in a large home these people live in small shacks
i have running water and plumbing they have a hole that they drop their waste in and wash in a river
they have no technology i have a lot of technology
they grew up with a struggle i didn't
they have a shorter life span because of conditions we have modern medicine so we can live longer
the police in the slums are corrupt but where i live they are not
the schools there don't provide a good education the schools here do

spotify asignment



Syrian national anthem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy5QYo_K3KA

Defenders of our home,
Peace be upon you;
The proud spirits had
refused to subdue.
The lion-abode of Arabism,
A hallowed sanctuary;
The seat of the stars,
An inviolable preserve.
Our hopes and our hearts,
Are entwined with the flag,
Which unites our country 



This national anthem kinda sounds military but also classical.



i forgot my blog yesterday but we took a test and thats about it. today in human geo we rant doing much since we just took the test we talked about the test a little bit but thats about it. reece was sitting on a window sill because he said it would cool him off. mr. schick scared tucker by acting like a cat before he could ask to get a drink. the only other things we did in class is a spottily assignment
