As I grow older and the years go by, I notice more and more how good I have it. My parents have worked really hard to give me the life I have. I am grateful for the fact that I am able to go to an extremely expensive and great private school, a thing a lot of kids can't say. I have always gone to private schools with good education and staff, making my learning experience better than a lot. Another thing I am grateful for are my friends and family. Anytime I need people to hang out with or talk to I can go to my friends and family. They are both always there for me no matter what. Imagine how boring life would be without friends. Imagine how unstable and bad life would be without family. They are two very great things.
One of my favorite times of the year, Thanksgiving. My day started off with waking up to the smell of turkey and all kinds of other foods. I went downstairs into the kitchen where my mom was cooking. She made me go back upstairs because I had to take a shower and get dressed and stuff. When I came back down I talked to my family and watched football until dinner was ready. As the day went by, my God Family visited to come spend the day at our house. We ate and then sat around the table and talked. Then we played some bored games and chilled. We watched more football and caught up with each other. It was a great day.
My topic is the South African Boer War. It all starts off with my research question, how has the war affected South Africa? The war was fought in South Africa in the 1800/ 1900s between the South African "Boer Republic" and Great Britain. A lot of my research is o he forgotten people and how they were affected. The war affected a lot of forgotten South African men and women. The war is very important to the shift and changes that South Africa has gone through. It isn't a very popular war, but it is definitely significant. Tens of thousands of people dies in concentration camps under British command and thousands of others suffered. South Africa will never be the same after this war.
