  • Columbine High School Shooting.

    The Columbine High School shooting was a very important event in my timeline because that was one of the first incidents of students getting bullied by their peers and actually retaliating causing a mass murder. This shooting made significance in my life because I had no idea students were capable of doing such a thing. Also that’s why we have heightened security at our schools. This event is the beginning of why our school administrators do not tolerate any bullying. How everyone should be trea

  • 9/11

    9/11
    September 11th, 2001 an unforgettable day that is still remembered. This day brings significance in all of our lives how we were just learning one thing in school and the next second getting sent home because we were getting attacked by “terrorists”. Since this day everything is now checked over 100% before we get on an airplane. Also this day was the reason why our county now has the Department of Homeland Security.
  • No Child Left Behind Act

    The No Child Left Behind act is important in my life because this started the standardized testing we take each year. This act made it very stressful on the teachers and on the students having them prepare for this test most of the year just for reading and math. Schools must give the tests to students in order to receive federal funding. Also they must have a certain amount of students pass so the government won’t control their school system. This is significant in my life because it’s been ver
  • Birth of little brother.

  • I got my first dog, Buddy.

  • Facebook

    Facebook
    Facebook, a highly addictive website that has had people hooked since 2004. Owned by the youngest billionaire of all time. Distracting students (like myself) from doing homework but socializing with friends without even leaving the bedroom. In other words this event is significant to my life because it didn’t just bring my laziness level to a new high but I get to connect with my family that I never knew I had before and connecting with friends with just a click of a button. Now I am on this sit
  • Went on my first vacation in america (Pocanos, PA)

  • Inside Undercover In North Korea Documentary

    The North Korea Documentary, one of the most frightening films I have ever seen. Since it was all 100% true you really cannot believe how people are living compared to us. How the two countries of North and South Korea hate each other. Also how North Korea is the strictest country in our whole world. Not allowing pictures of your family members but only your great ruler. The significance of this event is how we all take everything for granted but honestly once you watch this video you will be su
  • Got my first ATV

  • Obama elected

    Obama elected
    Obama being elected is very important in my life. This event set up how far African American people got in America. How America is changing and being less discriminant toward blacks, Hispanics, women, etc. This is significant in toward my life because it is a perfect example of working hard for something with great determination will get you wherever you want to get. Also if you believe you will succeed.
  • Haiti earthquake

    The Haiti earthquake is very important; I make you think how a country that has been suffering for decades before now has gotten an earthquake that has brought their country to a new low. Hundreds and thousands with broken body parts, bleeding to death. There was only so much that could be done with a little amount of help and so much injuries. This made a huge significance in my life just watching on tv how people we suffering and struggling to hold on to their own lives and their family member
  • BP Oil Spill

    BP Oil Spill
    The Bp Oil spill had a big impact on all of America. Not just the people but the wildlife was a big factor on who got affected by the spill. Thousands of birds, fishes, shrimp, and other wildlife next to the gulf died. This oil spill coasted a lot in clean ups and also coasted some workers their jobs and 11 their lives. Just so close to home killing our environment and making a big black death cloud in the ocean.
  • World Cup

    World Cup
    The 2010 world cup has a significance in my life because the US was a big part of it and that was a time when I really loved soccer. Having the soccer team watch each and every important game. Never having doubt in the country that we wanted to win. Always being competitive against one another including the coach.
  • My first job (Frank's Pizza)

  • Osama bin Laden death

    Osama bin Laden death
    When Osama bin Laden died the country felt like it was the best. We have killed the man that we have been looking for many years. Also America finally got some closure after the September 11th attack. Fear of getting attacked again by terrorists decreased because the only real person that we though were capable of masterminding these attacks was killed. This brings a huge significance in my life and many others because 10 years after we got attacked we got the mastermind that has been searched f

  • Withdrawal of U.S. troops from Iraq

    The US troop withdraw from Iraq was important since the US troops should have not been in Iraq in the first place. Many Americans questioned why we have taken the troops to Iraq. Having every troop home for Christmas. Feeling safe again back in the country.
  • Found out that mom had cancer

  • Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010

    The act that banned gay people in the US forces go repealed. A huge importance since gays and lesbians want to put their lives on the line for our country and then being denied just because they are gay? Or they would have to lie just to serve the country they love. This country is the land of the free and you should be free to do whatever you please weather you are gay or straight. There should be no discriminants against gay people at all.
