I remember as if it was just yesterday, the day I was invited to STARS. It was a club, or experiment, as the administrator had called it. The whole eighth grade was watching movie that day. Since it was PG 13, we all had to get a signature to watch the movie, and to be frank, I find the movies picked by the school rather uninteresting.

It wasn 't the best time in my life. I just stayed in the back, observing the faces surrounding me. I knew many faces, but I was and still am, horrible with the names.

The experimental group will be the group of children whose parents are asked to put them on a regular sleep cycle for about 4 weeks ensuring that they get at least 8-9 hours of sleep per night.

Furthermore, both groups will be given three simple cognitive tests consecutively while being observed in a classroom setting.

Midterm 1). Of all of the time periods we have studied thus far in the semester, I would have preferred to live in the 17th century Europe. I chose the 17th century because the 17th century was host to some of the greatest minds in history. I would have loved to live in that time period in order to see the great works of astronomy and physics that define modern science. In the 17th century, the two most notable influential people to me would be Galileo Galilei and Isaac Newton.
