I am looking forward to Spring Break because we haven't have a break in a while. Also, my parents plan of taking us out of town. I do not know where, but I believe it will be somewhere fun. My mom planned going to Universal Studio, but still, I don't think it will be this year. Our family wont be able to afford the cost. Even if we aren't going anywhere, I don't mind staying home. Our family had just bought two new pets. They are parrots, that will keep me busy and company. I know my siblings wouldn't want to stay home, but there are always activities at home that keep them happy.
I think spring break will be a fun time with the family. It will be a relaxing time for everyone. There should be much excitement too. I think during spring break my family and I will go out of town.
There are two famous Renaissance artist, Michelangelo and Leonardo Da Vinci. I think it is better to meet Leonardo because it is said that he is easier to get along with and follow rules. While Michelangelo is harder to get along with and doesn't follow rules. I will not want to get in trouble, maybe I won't for he is famous and he works inside the walls. I prefer being with Leonardo for he looks much more wise and may be a great teacher to me.
Both of these famous people live during the Renaissance, the time of glory in Europe. Leonardo is older than Michelangelo, and they like different subjects, even though they are none for their beautiful arts. Michelangelo is a sculptor and Leonardo is more to the inventing or science side. However, they had made many famous great works such as David, created by Michelangelo and the Mono Lisa painted by Leonardo. The two were some of the greatest artist that ever lived in the Renaissance.
My favorite topic of the Middle Ages is about the Black Death. It was a time of death in parts of Europe and killed most of the people. Therefore, the Black Death is a time of sadness to the people who loss their loves. Many with the disease mostly don't survive so thousands of people died. The Black Death was occuring often and didn't die out easily because during the Middle Ages Europe wasn't a clean place and neither were the people. The people don't wash their hands, take baths daily, and didn't do much more health control.
With all the bad things happening the people began to notice that they no longer need to live in thier villages and moved off to the towns and cities. People began to wander away from their villages because the fudual system began to fell apart and they were no longer were under control of lords. When moving into towns and cities the people found jobs and receive money and also they were treat better than living back at their poor cottages. In general, the Black Death was a bad time and affected the population of Europe, but it also gave people freedom.
