Diary Entry# 7

Dear Diary,

It's December 4, 1819 and I'm still lost. I got attacked by a bear and have a huge wound in my stomach that got infected, and I'm dying. I'm laying on a rock by the waterfall and saying my last words. I'm 1410 years old. in was worth living because I got to see how people got they're rights thanks to the anti federalists. Also how a great man called John Locke established the philosophy that we have the right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness, because without that then we would be in big trouble. I think that in the year 2019 things are going to be really different. For example I think that there would be way more states and they are going to be better. I also think that there will be different clothing than the one's we have. Everything's starting to go black and I feel like I'm about to faint.... So these are my last words for you about the life I had......

                                                                                                             Sincerely,
                                                                                                                   Leela

Diary Entry# 6

Dear Diary,

It's September 17, 1787. I was washing my clothes in the ocean water and picking up some rocks. As I'm walking I get fascinated by a little creature I see, so I follow it. I keep on following it and when I look up the first thing I notice is where I am. I'm scared and I try to find my way back home. But I can't and instead I find a big huge building and in the front it says constitutional convention. I decide to be nosie so I go in and go inside the first room. I find out that there's a debate going on about some people called federalists and anti federalists. I sit down because I find it interesting. As I'm hearing I decide to ask them what they were arguing about. They told me that it was because federalists wanted a strong central government and the anti federalists worried more about peoples rights and of the state.I remembered that I went to a convention before where I saw in a document about how Alexander Hamilton, James Madison, and John Jay agreed and disagreed with the new constitution because of some problems there were. So I told them that and the federalists agreed with what I said, because it said that a strong central government had to be superior to the congress according to the articles of confederation. The anti federalists didn't agree because it only mentioned the federalists side and not theirs. Meanwhile they were arguing, I decided to eat my cooked fish I always had on my bag in case I ever got lost, which I did. When I was done eating I heard the Anti-federalists agree to follow the Constitution only if they got the bill of rights. They agreed to it and so the thirteen colonies which were Massachusetts, Georgia, Rhode Island, Connecticut, North Carolina, South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, and New Hampshire heard about this and got in on that. In 1819 Ohio, Mississippi, Kentucky, Indiana, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Illinois found out about this, and wanted the bill of rights as well. I'm exhausted and tired from hearing long debates and arguments, and it's time for me to go home. I don't know where to go, but I'm going to try to find my way back.

Diary Entry# 5

                                                  
  Dear Diary,
Its the year of 1789 and I was getting wood to start a fire, when I see behind some trees someone talking about the problem George Washington was facing with Alexander Hamilton, and Thomas Jefferson. I wanted to go and see how that was going to turn out, so I decided to go to the argument they were having. I got to the place and saw that it was a big building. As I was looking through the window Alexander Hamilton sees me and tells me to come in to help him and Thomas Jefferson decide on something. So I went in and they told me what they were arguing about. Hamilton said that he wanted a strong government led by the upper class citizens. Jefferson wanted a strong government led by local governments rooted in participation. I told them I didn't know with who to agree with. I didn't want to tell Hamilton that I disagreed with him. I disagreed with him because I to wanted a society of farmer citizens like Jefferson wanted. Since I'm not rich or am from upper class people, I wouldn't be able to agree or disagree on laws, because of that. So that affected me a lot. Hamilton wanted commerce and industry, as key to a strong nation. Jefferson wanted a society of farm citizens. I told them that they needed to fix the problem fast because people were getting irritated of how their government was at the time. So I told them to just come up with a basic agreement. They said that a compromise should be established, so that's exactly what they did.They came up with a compromise that helped them get what they wanted without having to have war. I was pleased because I knew people would be happy because I was. I'm going to stay, and keep hearing what they're plans are. This is it for now.
                                                     Sincerely,
                                                             Leela
