Titanic

The last photo of the Titanic, taken April 11th, 1912 

On this day at 2:20 am 100 years ago the Titanic sank. Today my mother, my sister and I went to go see the movie titanic. Now I have seen this movie many times, and I’m sad to say when I was younger I laughed at people who fell, and made jokes about peoples suffering in the movie. But today as we were watching it, my mom leaned over my sister to tell me that today was the day that the titanic went down. Now before she said this to me I was having a good time making jokes about the movie, but after she told me that, I just sat back and thought, I may have been laughing at things people may have actually gone though. Now when I was younger I went though many stages of interest, for example for a year I read as many books, articles and watched many videos about the holocaust. Then I went through a stage about finding out as much as I could about the titanic. Now I’m still very interested in both those topics, but as I watched the movie I could see much truth/facts about the titanic. Like the people, Margaret Brown (Molly Brown) was a true person, and according the book “Titanic love stories” by Gill Paul, she did indeed argue with the crew members on board the life boat to go back to search for survivors. In the movie they also speak of John Jacob and Madeleine Astor, they were true people as well.



Now that I’m 19, I’m starting to see things in a different way. Things that were funny before are not that funny now. Its like I’m seeing the world with new eyes. I cannot imagine the fear those people felt when the Titanic was sinking, the sadness they felt when they got onto the life boats, never knowing if they would see their loved ones again. The part that makes me sad the most is that the Titanic was carrying 2,223 people and 1,517 died. 130 first class passengers died, 166 in second class and 536 in third class. Their were 899 crew members and 685 of them died. Most women and children in first class survived, the same cannot be said for those in second and third class. Although their were not many children on board a lot of them died. 53 children died that night which is about half of them. In the end the highest casualty rate was men, 1,347 of them died and 103 women died. Their was a strict women and children first rule when it came to letting people on life boats.


So lets take a moment to remember those people who died on the Titanic.

Things about me

Hey guys. Sorry this post is messy. (I mean with the pictures still trying to figure it out) So today when I was at my co-op placement at my old high school. What I do is help students who are special needs or just have an IEP with their work. Anyways today in one of the classes the teacher handed them out a assignment, well its more like questions but whatever, and they had to answer them. The questions go from 1-10 you will see what I mean in a moment. So, I was working with 2 girls on their assignment and I kept thinking about what my answers would be.

A new chapter

Hey guys. So im new at blogging so bare with me (we all have to start somewhere). So since im starting college I kind of want to document it here. Im gonna try to explain troubles and hardships of everyday life with having ADHD, an IEP and how to over come them. So here's a little info about myself. Im 18 and live in Ontario, Canada. No gonna tell you anymore then that. I started a program at college (notice how I didnt say the name of the college lol) called a bridge program. So you might be asking what a bridge program is, so this is what the website says:

This dual credit program offers high school students the opportunity, upon successful completion, to earn up to 2 secondary school credits at their home school and 2 additional optional credits towards their OSS. Students will also earn up to 2 general education elective courses towards the completion of a college program. Students will spend half of the day in their home school and spend the other half of the day (Monday to Thursday) at ............ college.

So the perks of this program is free text books, free transportation and its 2 less courses I have to take when I do the full time program. BTW I graduated high skool already

So I am the second born of 5 kids. The order is my older sis who is 20, me 18, my younger sis 16, and my two younger brothers ages 14 and 8. My parents are divorced but my mom is with my step dad he is the father of my youngest brother. My gave birth to him so he is my brother.

So I think that should be it for today, plz follow me and I will be trying to post atleast 2-3 times a week. I will be not only posting about how to overcome obstacles but might also post something funny or even show off some of my cool nail designs that I do. So until next time bye!!
