9/4 Human Geo
Today in class we discussed what high school is like, and how it may be the most difficult time in your whole life with long working hours and time management. Along with that, in high school there is no one to hold your hand through classes, or to chase you down when you don't turn in homework. We also talked about the essay written to Garcia.
Key notes from "A message to Garcia":
- Written by Elbert Hubbard.
- Written during Spanish-American war in Cuba.
- Rowan was to deliver this message to Garcia, who Hubbard thought was this really good leader and basically was a big fan of him.
- The first few paragraphs are about the messenger, who Hubbard compares everyone else to. A lot of the writing is just anger.
- He also compares Garcia to others and notes how sloppy and lazy people are with their work.
- He's also bashing people for being stupid (understandable).
- This essay became popular because business owners were taking it and using Rowan and Garcia as examples of how you should be with your work.
That's as far as we went over today.
