Hello! My name is Kimmy =] some of my charateristics consist of being very outgoing and funny. I am also known to my freinds as a very sweet person who tells you the truth in any situation, I am not the one to flater you if its unnesasery. During my free time I like to do alot of things like hang out with freinds or cook. Cooking is one of my favorite things to do eventhough i cook small things I feel I can bake very well. Hanging out with my freinds on the other hand is another thing that I really enjoy. My freinds are very close to me and I can tell them anything because I always know they willl be there for me no matter what. Since school has begun not to long ago I havent really had a lot of time for my freinds or myself between homework. Things that are important to me is school because that is where my future will be built and family; my family i love very much with all my heart and just like my freinds i feel like I have a very close relationship with both of my parents and they will be there no matter what. Family is one of the most valuable and precious things to me. Some of things that i dislike are liars, backstabbers, and milk without ice lol =]. All my freinds think its strange to have milk with ice but i like it; it tastes good!! So those are the hobbies I enjoy and the responsibilites I face each day.

5 topics for reaserch paper ideas
=slavery, women rights, genocides, military, civil rights

__My 3 picks for research paper__

= women rights = slavery* = military CCQ: about the reaserch paper C: I think that this research project will be very difficult but if we work together we will be able to get through it. Q: Why do we have to do this project?

The Old Regime: The first estates are where most kings, ministers are of noble birth. Bishops, nuns, monks. The Second Estate didnt help pay for any taxes, because was surrounded by members that were rich. Nobles born into it, not rich The Third Estate had to pay taxes. Business owners, merchants, not poor. They all had 1 vote! 1st and 2nd all get taxes but 3rd has to pay the taxes. Poor people starving. 1st-2nd = 3% 3rd=97% oppurtunites

Summary of how the revolution began: The French Revolution began by hgaving 3 seperate groups/ estates that were all differnt, some were lower class then rest. Some paid taxes some didint so they put there differences to war, which made people fight.

= Who were the good guys and who were the bad guys? - The good guys were business owners, and merchants because they worked for what they deserved, they have to work for there money. Unlike the Nobles, Nuns, Monks, and bishops, they are brought up with money and power, so i think they are the bad guys because they try to rule out others which isnt right. Just because they were born with good nature and everything doesnt make them all that. I think the bad guys are the Kings, Nobles, nuns etc, and the good guys are the business owners, and merchants.
