Usa didn't join right away to the war but eventualy they did. The reason they joined was because they were allies with Britain, France, and Russia. They joined in in April 6, 1917.Aid- Aid is when you are friends with another country, the give you support and provide the minimum necessarysSomething that surprised me the most was that more than 12 million immigrants made their first stop in America at the Ellis Island Immigration Station between 1892 and 1954. A question i have is When did the Immigration station close? The last thing i found out was that "Millions of newly arrived immigrants passed through the station during that time–in fact, it has been estimated that close to 40 percent of all current U.S. citizens can trace at least one of their ancestors to Ellis Island."

A past event that truly has impacted my life is going through depression and having an eating disorder. It all started in 5th grade and only got worse. My family all together wasn't in a very good place so it lead me to be very unhappy emotionally and physically. My eating disorder started with me only eating 300 calories for the whole day and as months went on it got worse. I started fasting for 5-7 hours. Since i barely ever ate i never had energy to do anything all i wanted to do is stay in bed and sleep. I hated going places, i never wanted to go out with family, because they would eventually see i wasn't eating at restaurants. As i kept getting even more depressed my mom started to worry about me everyday. She would tell me i looked pale and i was always moody. People would tell me at school i looked fat so that led me to not eat for days. The most i went without eating was about 4 days, i would drink a lot of water. On the fourth day it was too much for my body and it gave out. Even after that experience i still kept doing the same things. In the beginning of 7th grade i started to throw up my food since i started eating and the weight was coming back. Eventually i came clean to my mom, she got me the help i needed to realize I was just making it worse. The start of eighth grade year i saw everything differently, i started to realize i was only making the people that called me fat, happy. I'm not allowing them to let them see me sad anymore. This all developed my passion for staying fit and working out. -Where was i born?
