Ideas for Breaking the Wall

• A owner of a local grocery store begins to notice the his business is failing due a Wal-Mart has owned in the town. He tries his best to promote his business and make more people buy products at his store but fails. He also notices the other local store owners and factories have their business failing as well. The townspeople try to bring this issue up at the city council meeting but are ignored. At the same day as this, many owner begins to notice his son is getting sick due to him eating a store brand fruit snacks from Wal- Mart. He begins to take this to a personal matter. Everyone wants to get to the bottom of this by any means neccessary.
• During the Boxer Rebellion, a young american girl (age 16) who has come to China to help with her highly relgious father and mother to preach the word of God in a church in the countryside along with their fellow priest. Soon while teaching her young students the act of forgiveness, the church is attacked by boxers. The attackers showed no mercy to any of them. After a boxer attempts to kill, she felds into the jungle filled with anger, hate, regret, and pure saddness all while taking in that she abandoned her mother and father. At first she was hungry for vengence but after being sheltered by a wise medience men who has verterain of the Haw wars taught her martial arts, how to use weapons, and pushing her mind as well as body to the absolute breaking point in order in bring the people who wronged her to justice and to right those wrongs but not to achive vengence. Knowing that she can't be a solider, she adapts an outfit after what her master called her "blue" after her eyes. She acts as a vigilante who secretly declares war on Righteous Harmony Society by bringing members to authorites, destroying their operations, and protecting missionaries and Chinese Christians.
• The same premise as the first one. A Chinese girl and her family is suffering financially due famines, constant violence due to the opium wars, and foreigners taking their jobs. The fled to America hearing tales of mountains and rivers of gold in America in a place called the Gila River in the Arizona desert. They open a laundry business near the Gila River while the men of the family search for gold in the river while the women work in the lanudry. She hates doing this and longs for doing the same things that the men are doing. Her father notices this and teaches her how to use his "newly bought" colt revolver as well as teach her the ways of war due to him being a solider before he got married. However when moving into Gila City, they experience prejudice and racism. One night while she is testing her pistol in a near by valley, they're laundry business which also served as their home is torched by vigilante group as well as the local Sheriff and his deputies due them struggling to pay the rent as well as being accused of stealing. Her family is brutally beaten and hanged. When she comes back she looks in horror of the scene and vows vengeance on the people who wronged her. She begins a one women war on the people who killed her loved ones doing what ever it takes to right those wrongs.
  

Reflection on MUN

I really enjoyed MUN due to the fact that I was talking with other people about solving the worlds' problems who actually cared and knew what I was talking about. I really enjoy debating with other people as well as try to convince them to my cause. I also enjoyed trying to creative as well as work with other people on solutions to world problems that all of the countries that we are representing can agree upon. Due to me knowing a lot on the variety of topics that we discussed, I really shined during MUN.

However there was some negative things in MUN as well. One of the negative things is that it seems that almost everyone no matter what the country that they are representing beliefs are on the problem we are trying to solve join a group due to their own personal beliefs and not the country they are representing, the group being the biggest, or just because the "smart" people are there.

Another reason is that the people seem to forget that the when we are debating, we are defending our country's point of view not ours. A experience that happened to me was when we were debating on child soldiers and my country, Libya supported child soldiers. I tried to tell why my country might support child soldiers but the person who represented Canada thought I was expressing my personal opinion and personally attacked me while trying to demonized me to other representatives when she could have listened to what I saying. Not to mention because I sat next to her, every time I did a stuttered, couldn't explain something in words, or pronounced something wrong, she corrected me in a stubborn manner.

However despite all of this, I really enjoyed MUN but I didn't enjoy to point where I would actually want to join MUN due to the fact there are other things I want t o do more then that as an after school activity. One thing that MUN did help me realize that I need to practice on speaking clearly so that people can understand me better.
