Today in human geo we had a quick overview of the North korea slides. Some people had to finish notes from previous slides. After that we continued to go forward into the powerpoint and we did that until the end of class. Besides doing that we took a survey for Mr. Schick. The survey was about Mr. Schick and some of the questions were like do you think Mr. Schick is a good teacher and other ones pertaining to him and his methods as a teacher. I thought it was pretty cool taking the survey because it kind of gives him an idea of what he needs to improve on and what he is doing right.

Lately in human geo we have been discussing the country of North Korea. So far we have covered the obvious facts about how they are very secluded and very isolated from the outside world. Mr. Schick showed us the power point he put together, so far we have learned that the current leader is Kim Jong-un who took it over from his father. Today we went to Mr. Schick's office and started to watch a movie about North Korea, the camera crew went undercover as a film crew documenting the works of a doctor performing eye surgeries in North Korea. So I am interested to see if they pull it off.

Today in human geo we took our test! I studied but i don't believe I studied hard enough because i did not get the grade i wanted to get but i still passed, Thank God. There were a few questions were I did not know the answer but then others were I knew the answer right away. The one question that really made me laugh was the third one about who invented the revolver and I put Dan Wesson because I did not know the answer. After I handed in my test I looked it up and I got it wrong. But overall im glad I did not completely fail. Also I am looking forward to our christmas party friday!

Today in human geo we reviewed the powerpoint for our test on our wednesday. In the beginning of class there was an slight argument between Mr. Schick and my fellow students. Then we began to go over the powerpoint, we started with Christianity which is the largest religion in the world. We went on to talk about Islam, which is the second largest religion in the world. On 9/11 when Osama Bi landen attacked world traits center in New York. The country we invaded was Iraq and the main religion there was Muslims. We also talked about how Buddhism and Christianity are similar in many ways. The eightfold path of Buddhism is similar to the teachings of Jesus Christ in Christianity.

Today in human geo we took our test! I feel like I did okay on the test there where some things that i had no clue what it was and others where I snapped right on it and got the answer right away. The first part of the test I thought was fairly easy but the second half was more challenging than the first. The second part has stuff on how you could impeach leaders and what some of the laws were for countries. The essay question was kind of hard but it was no that difficult. Over all I think I did decent on today's test.
