On friday we had a sub. He was from Chicago and said we were all eating unhealthy. We did a packet on secession, which happened when the south wanted to separate from the Union; it was an idea. The packet was kind of confusing because the primary source document didn't really make sense. Today in class we looke at a caricature cartoon about the election of 1860. There were four major parties; northern democrats, southern democrats, republicans, and constitutional party. The republicans were against slavery, while the southern democrats wanted to spread it. The northern democrats wanted to have popular sovereignty. The constitutional party just wanted everyone to get along. Lincoln won the election.


I have reliezed my goal is actually going better than I originally thought. Between dance and track I'm stretching at least once a day six times a week. Anyways, even though I haven't been really doing it all the time, it wasn't a complete waste.
