Reflection(HanLim)

I think this project was easy compare to other projects Ms.Sackstein gave us during 1st and 2nd trimester. I think it was a good idea to do a project with technology because we are trying something new we haven't done before. Honestly, I thnk I had fun doing this project and would love to get another project like this in the future.

statement of process

At least twice or three times a day, I worked on my blog project. I would work on at least 1 question a day. So to finish 1 post it took me 2 days because on the first day I would answer the question on the paper and on the second day I would post it. But I finish my project today which is Feb.28 and I think I am proud of it.=]]

(J) Would you be friends with your person now if he or she were still alive? Why or why not?

Thomas Gage is a British general. I think he is really wise, brave and determined.
If I were a British, I would have loved to be his friend, but of course if I were an American, I would have not wanted to be his friend. But I'm not an American and I am not a British. I think I would have wanted to be his friend if I lived in my country but I live in America so I don't really want to be his friend.

(F) If this person had opposition, who were the persons foe?

I'm a British general so I have a lot enemies. The American generals of course hated the British generals so I guess I was hated by them too. All the American citizens were my enemies too.
