Extra Credit in History

the other day we had an extra credit opportunity in History and I jumped on it. I was in english the next day and found out we had one in there as well. I was pumped, but kinda bummed out because it was at the same time. I spoke to my english teacher and figured out what I could do. I went to the extra credit/class roll/ counted as attendance. It was a writing fair and I wasnt going to stay long but it was very cool. Lots of young writers with passion for the art. It was very cool to see al the effort that people put into there projects for other english classes. I stayed a while and then went to my history class. We watched a movie on the civil rights. Based in the late 50's to 70's or so, life was crazy. Blacks hated whites and whites hated blacks. I dont know how people did it to be honest. I mean wow!! why couldnt everybody just get along and be cool. Life is short and why wast it on hating someone else or race when is can be way more enjoyable with loving everybody. But to sum it up, I got all my extra credit in History and was very pleased.
