AP C: Magnetism

It was holding the rope as it attached itself to the metal door. It was strong, big, and round, and I wanted to beat it in a tug of war. As I pulled the rope with half my strength, the magnet detached. Of course it would; I was so powerful.

But how strong was the magnet? Could it hold me off the ceiling or open the big door? Or could it pull other magnets?

I answered those questions everytime and everywhere. I was so fascinated by that small little thing that it got me stuck into the C loop 😭.

Maus's Message (Page 125)

Image
  From Maus I by Art Spiegelman      This is a panel (page 125) from Maus by Art Spiegelman and it reveals a lot. In the direct context, Vladek (Narrator's Father) was stuck in a ghetto. Germans were transporting Jews from there, but Vladek managed to hide and survive. After the whole ghetto was emptied, Vladek and his wife Anja left the ghetto.     When we look the picture carefully, the road that Vladek and Anja are travelling on is representing the Swastika symbol of the Nazis. The road is completely white and clear, but the surroundings are lined (which represent the lined clothes of jews in the concentration camps).

Vladek and Anja are walking on a swastika shaped road; they are within the range the Nazis (Spiegelman shows that by making t...

What is Art?

What is art? Well, I don’t know. Or maybe I do.  If you look at pure definition, art is commonly regarded as something that was created out of the creator’s creative mind. It could be a movie, a song, a book, a painting, or anything else. If you look deeply among these art forms, one common element is that all these emerge from the imagination of a person. And for me, that imagination is art.  I have been imagining various things since childhood. As a kid, I imagined myself as a superhero saving the world or a famous sportsperson representing the country. I used to think of dinosaurs, aliens, car racing, and all sorts of things. As I grew up ,things have changed, and I don’t necessarily dream of myself in a fantastical world. Rather I try to visualize academic concepts. This may sound boring at first, but when I start to imagine such realms, it quickly develops my interest. For example, while doing AP Physics C this year, I was sometimes  confused by the complexities. But...

The Next 10 Years

As I transition into the new chapter of my life and exit high school, I would have to change and learn a lot. To help me go through this smoothly, I plan on reading these 10 books in the next 10 years. Fiction      Lord of The Rings - by Peter Jackson: I have always been lured by fantasies and the worlds they describe. As I read this book about Frodo Baggins's journey to prevent Sauron from getting the hold of the One Ring,  I will enjoy the adventures of Frodo and his friends as they fight against Sauron's will.      Pride and Prejudice - by Jane Austen : As Austen follows the stories of the married couple of Elizabeth & Darcy and Jane & Bingley, she explores the various societal issues of the time. Going through their story, Austen highlights the aspects of the society that existed in late 1700s. Reading this book will help me gain insights into the historical societal views and allow me to explore important themes.      One Hu...
