Compassionate Science
Science can be something that is used solely to make a bunch of money, but it can also be something that can help build a bright future. There are many ways in which this can be done and one of those ways is becoming a compassionate scientist, but what exactly does it take to be on? In order to be a compassionate scientist one must have the never-ending ability to sympathize with others. If the world had more compassionate scientists, then millions of deaths could be prevented a year. I would not be able to become a passionate scientist because I don't care about helping out others that might not even appreciate what I would do. The only case where I might do so, is if I were doing something that could help animals out. The main trait a compassionate scienctist should have is the inability to stay apathetic to all of the world's problems around them.

The Future
Within 200 years, human beings will cease to exist because we will have caused ourselves to go extinct. This is because all the harmful things that we do on a daily basis will be the death of us. The holes in the ozone layer will grow to be so big that we won't even be able to leave our homes without combusting into flames. This will make it impossible to gather food and little by little people will move to different parts of the Earth causing those places to become overpopulated and lack food. Some kind of protective suit might even have to be made just to go outside. Our lack of concern for lack of resources will also become a huge problem. All of the oceans will eventually dry up and the air we breathe will become fatally toxic. These factors will slowly but surely ensure the death of the human race and quite possibly every other organism.

One Time I Laughed Really, Really Hard
This one time I laughed so hard while drinking soda that I ended up vomiting. I was at my friend's house and he had just finished serving me something to drink. While I was drinking it, he decided that he would make funny noises to try and get me to choke and leave the back of my throat with a burning feeling from choking on soda. What ended up happening was something completely different from what he expected. At first, I started choking and soda started spewing out of my nose. I kept choking and choking until I ran out of breath. I reacted to being out of breath in an odd way. Out of nowhere a cannon of vomit show out of my mouth onto my friend's floor. I think what was even more embarrassing than throwing up on the floor was that I had to clean it up and while I was cleaning it up his mom just so happened to walk in.

My Review On Modern Times
I felt that Modern Times (1936) was a film that was both boring and entertaining. At first I felt that I would not be able to get into it because it started off at a really slow place. I would not want to watch a film about someone going crazy because of how hard they work since I can place myself in that situation and I wouldn't want that to happen to me. Once I began analyzing the film I found that it actually began to pique my interest. I thought it was great how Chaplin was able to place so many underlying messages in his film. He made certain points that pointed out the realities of life such as workers were being mindlessly herded like sheep which would lead them to go crazy because of it, the police had no mercy on anyone and they acted like brutes, and that people during the 1930's viewed the future as dark and gloomy. Once the film got to the point where he left the factory, things started to pick up and I didn't find it to be as boring. I thought it was really interesting how Chaplin decided to make the film a silent one even though sound could already be put in movies. I think this was because it wasn't his style to make a movie with sound.
