1. Sadness

Everytime I watch something about Haiti, it might be a commercial a video or something that shows how Haiti was damaged by the earthquake I get really sad. I just think that many people died and that this could also happen in Honduras. Haiti got destroyed completely and if this happened in Honduras this would be horrible.

2. Happiness

Title: what is the role of language and reason in history?

Opinion: Language and reason helps us understand and communicate with different people around the world even if they are of different cultures.

Support 1: Language is a system of communicating that combines sounds, symbols, or gestures accroding to sets of rules about word order and meaning. Body language or symbols are another way of communicating without using words. This helps us understand other people even though we might not speak the same language. For example: similing is an international symbol. If a chinese smiles at me and waves his hand I can understand that he is saying hi to me, vene though we don't speak the same language.

Support 2: All cultures are completely different and to understand and tolerate them we need reason. For example in some arab countries they don't eat meat becuase cows are sacred animals. In other cultures it's normal to eat meat. In order to tolerate them we should use reason to understand that it's normal to them not to eat meet and that their culture is completely different.

Yellow journalism was the nick name they used for two news papers in the U.S. press. Jospeh Pulitzer and William hearst were the owners of two different news papes. Both of the owners of these news papers wanted to compete and see who sold more copies and who won more money. To achieve this both of them started to invent things that were happening in cuba. They didn't know that this would be one of the motives that tirggered the Spanish american war.

President Bush sent U.S. troop to invade Iraq in order to fight for terrorism. He didn't think of all the bad things that could happen. He was waisting millions of dollars on this war. Many soldiers were killed and their families suffered and others were simply away from their family for a long time.

People are suffering in Venezuela becase they are poor and meanwhile Chavez lives like a rich person.

The Origin of My Name

Meaning of Maria:


Origin: Latin


Meaning: The original Latin name Maria arose as a back-formation from the early Christian female name Mariam. This was taken as an accusative case, with the usual Latin feminine accusative ending -am. In fact, however, it is an indeclinable Aramaic alternative form of the Hebrew name Miriam.


Origin: Spanish


Meaning: In Spain not only is the name María itself enormously common, but a large number of Marian epithets and words associated with the cult of the Virgin are also used as female given names.


Origin: English


Meaning: In English it is a learned revival dating from the 18th century, pronounced both /mari/ and, more traditionally, /marai/.





Meaning of Luisa


Origin: Spanish


Meaning: Spanish form of Louis. Feminine form: Luisa.





Meaning of Izaguirre


Origin: Basque Izagirre, a variant of Aizagirre, a topographic name for someone who lived in a place exposed to the wind, from Basque aize ‘wind’ + ager, agir ‘visible’, ‘exposed.’

Maria Luisa de Borbon

Why my Parents chose Maria Luisa:

I'm the fourth generation of Maria Luisa. My great grandmother, my grandmother and my mother's name is Maria Luisa. Despite this my mom didn't want me to be called like this. She wanted to name me Alexandra because she loves that name and she didn't like hers. My grandmother wanted me to be named Maria Luisa so that's why my mom and dad decided to name me this way, so the tradition wouldn't stop.
