The 1066 King





If there was a vote in the 1066 to who should be king of England I would vote for Harold Godwindson. There are many reasons why, First of all I think it is goo to maintain the english blood. I think it is important to maintain the english blood so if Harold had kids then they would be the king or queen and they would ceep on going. I also think he should have been king because King edward chose him to be the king after he died. I also think that it was not fair to have the fight after they already named Godwindson king.

Values & Choices




There I was standing like a lost 3 year old, not knowing what to do. Being a witnes to a bully situation is not so easy. I always say that I would tell the bully to stop but when I saw the the bully pushing the smaller kid into a locker i didn't know what to do so I just stud there like nothing was happening. I felt fo guilty because I could have done something as the oldest one there, but I didn't and that made me feel like a terrible person. After that day I said I would never let someone be treated badly.
Later that year I saw the same bully pushing the same little kid around making him carry the bullies school things. As I was working up the nerve to go tell the bully to stop the bully and I see another kid older than me and hit the bully. The bully just walked away and left the kid alone. At that moment I was looking at a bully geting bullied because he was bullying anther kid. I had guessed that that was the older brother of the kid but when I asked the kid he said that he was surprised as well because he had never seen the tall strong kid before. At that moment I thought that I should always help people a non vileness way, and to do it when I get a chance, not to wait and let some one els do it with vileness.

Bullying isn't a knew thing I has been going on for years and years. Bullying has even been shown in great myths. A big myth that shows Bully is the minotaur. In the myth a very powerful king orders the best bulder in the world and makes him build the bigest maze in the world for an ugly minotaur. After the architect was finished the king locked him and his son in the maze with the minotaur. I think that this shows bullying because the king built the maze in intentions to trap innocent people and let the minotaur kill them. Another example in that he trapped the architect in so that he would get killed to.  
A big example of bullying is the Holocaust. In the Holocaust there is not only bullying but there is exclusion and ostracism. The Jews were excluded from their home and countries and no one did any thing and that is why the Holocaust happend.
