The Lorax (Michael Ah-Hee)

            So last week I saw the Lorax with my dear friends Tati and Tyler at Dole Theater. The place was deserted and was rather eerie. But anyways, when I first heard that we had to see this movie, I was rather disappointed because out of all the good movies coming out, we had to see a Dr. Seuss movie. Although, as the movie progressed it became better and I liked it more than I thought that I would. This movie is a little reflection of our world in the near future and was greatly portrayed through a cartoon. But the whole time I was wondering how does this movie relate to our physics class, so I was trying to find physic applications to the movie, because I forgot we started this new 4^th quarter project. Trees . . .nope, talking fish and bears . . . nope, seed sprouting with only water . . . that’s biology, making fresh air without trees . . . that’s chemistry, the ridiculous pathways and slopes of thneedvile . . . I don’t think so. But then someone pointed out the quote that I missed while thinking of the items above, “Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.” Then I suddenly remembered the project and it directly applies to what we are trying to accomplish, a change in our school for the better. There are always opinions on how to make things better, the problem is voicing them out and going through with it. For our project I think that this was an excellent movie choice and gave us a little inspiration to accomplish our goals. Overall I think that this was a great choice as homework over the break.
