Day 5 - Paris (5/4/24) (personal post)

Today was a free day so I was free to do what ever I want. Me and my friends decide to go to Montparnasse Tower. It was a bit up a walk to get to it but the view was so worth it. We went inside the building and then just walk around the area for a little bit. We then decide to go through stores to buy some souvenirs. I got a pin if the Eiffel Tower and a cat. Later that night, we went back to the Eiffel Tower to take picture and make some tik toks. It was a pretty chill day.
The stairs up to Montparnasse. It was steep

Madrid: Archaeology Museum

  The room that really stood out to me was the room dedicated to the prehistoric age (caveman era). This room really opened my eyes to how inventive they were back then. They weren't wasteful and made sure everything they collected had a use to it. Animals bones and rocks were use to make weapons and tools to help out their society. They were also very creative and incorporated artwork into their society. They painting in cave told stories important to them and craved images into bones to shows their status in their society. They cared about pottery and used objects to show off their status just like we do in modern times. I think the prehistoric ages are important to Madrid historically because it is literally dedicated to how the people back then used their environment to function in society. That era shows the deep history of Madrid and give example of what's tools they used to get food and to make art. It also bring people a deeper understanding on what was important to Spa...

Anne Frank

  Today I got to walk through the place where Anne Frank and her family hid from Nazis for two years. Anne Frank is well known for writing about her experience of the holocaust. She was only 13 when she had to go into hiding. She was just a kid and had so much to live for. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it out of the holocaust alive.  Even though she was limited to stay in the house, she still had hope for the future and tried to see the positive in things . Honestly, Anne Frank is an inspiration in my life. She was so young when she had to go through something bad but she still had dreams. She reminds me to alway look at the positive in things. I think what makes her contribution in society important was her age. In her diary, readers can totally see Anne’s personality. She wrote down what she was going through personally. People feel sympathy for her because she was robbed of so much in her life. It shows how bad the holocaust was. Having Anne be the symbol of what Jews we...

Lise Meitner

 what Lise Meitner is a great example for women in science. Meitner grew up and went to a university in Vienna where she was the 2nd women to graduate in physics. Vienna wouldn't offer her a lab because she was a women so she moved to Berlin. Berlin gave her a workshop for a lab. She was also the first female professor in Physics in Germany. During World War One, she was an x-ray nurse-technician and discovery the element protactinium. During World War Two, she lost all her positions and her lab because she was jewish. She had to move to Sweden to escape the Nazi's. She was offer to join the Manhattan Project but decline because she didn't want to be part of group that was responsible for building a bomb (thought it was unmoral).  I think what makes Lise Meitner contribution to Berlin and to the World so important is that she was an example that women deserve a role in science. She also shows that you don't have to lose your humanity to achieve greatness. She discover a...
