MY SUPERHERO and his POWER's

Captain, I am the best superhero to ever live! This is my superhero name, i chose this name because it describes my superhero best. Now all superhero's guard one city like New York, Chicago etc... So just to fit in i decided that I too would guard one city. This city is Miami, i chose this city because i think it is a sweet city and deserves to be protected from tons of evil villains. Now being as that I'm a superhero I need to have some super powers, so here they are and a description on why I would have them and how I would use them.

My first power would be flying. I love to fly and what a better way to travel around Miami catching villains then flying. Just for superhero efficiency flying would be the way to travel. Also if you get out numbered and have to escape (not that I would ever have to) flying away would make for a quick getaway.

Second, I would have super strength, just for fighting even the toughest evil criminals. I would be able to throw massive objects at the bad guys, and just be overall superior in combat. Also i could have super accelerator suit that would excel my body for super speed and super agility. This improves my overall chance of protecting the fine citizens of Miami.

My last super power would be invisibility, this would increase my super stealth skills. This will also help me sneak up on enemies for optimum attack force! Also if a swift escape was needed i could turn invisible.

So just to conclude because my superhero is so awesome never would the citizens of Maimi be in any danger!

If you could be anyone

Well there are many people i would want to be for a day and it is very hard to pick just one. Rock stars, pro-athletes and movie stars i think would be most people's choice but not for me. I wouldn't want to be a famous person or athlete for just one day i would want to be an animal. Now you may think what a stupid choice, but in my opinion its not! The animal i would pick to be for a day would be a kangaroo(which by the way is my favourite animal)! Now let me tell you why i would want to be a kangaroo.

First, who doesn't like to hop, and what do you do when your a kangaroo.....you hop! Imagine you and your kangaroo friends just hopping around all day in the desert, exploring and getting into so miscellaneous marsupial matter.

Also, kangaroo's are great boxers so you could have some boxing fights with your friends. Plus when your a kangaroo or any animal for that matter you would have no rules and no school, work or deadlines. All there would be was needing to get food, water and just having awesome adventures with your kangaroo pals.

All these reasons add to why kangaroo's are my favourite animal. This is also why i would choose to be a kangaroo for a day even if i could be anyone in the world. HOP ON!

Did you know?

After watching the video I was stunned from the facts and now realizing how much the population and the technology is increasing. Every year both of these things in numbers are growing at a rate more than the previous year. In my opinion this rate is too fast for humanity to stop it.

The population is way too much now and now that’s increasing at this rate I predict soon the earth will become too small to hold all of the inhabitants. A long time ago the myan’s predicted hat in 2012 there would be world wide catastrophes that would deplete the world population back to and tiny amount compared to what is now. I believe in this because without this happening there soon there will be too many people to live on the earth and not enough resources to accommodate all of just an average person's needs.

Also technology is increasing at an extremely fast rate that in time are world could become over run by technology. This could mean that all the world's different countries heritages could be lost by the increasing amount of technology. This is critical to the survival of different cultures.

At the end of the video it asked' so what does this all mean' well i think it means that for population there is soon going to be too many people on the earth and not enough food. Technology on the other hand i think will take over different cultures and heritages.

I was stunned! Yet very disappointed. A lady by the name of Eva Olsson came to our school and talked to us about a great tragedy that affected her and 11 million other people. She explained to us that one word caused a murder of 11 million people this word is "hate".


Now for a second just imagine being told to get out of your homes and pack your bags this is exactly what Eva Olsson was told to do her and her 6 brothers and sisters and her mom and dad were being told the same thing. Once the got out of their homes the walked 10 km just to get to a train that would be packed full of other Jewish people and they were on the train for 3 days before they arrived at Auschwitz. This was a concentration camp where Eva started her horrible journey.


She told us many stories about her journey and throughout the presentation I was shocked and stunned that 11 million people, Jewish people were murdered because of one word, one religion this is just to overwhelming to think that this many people were just tortured, murdered wiped off the planet. This really bothered me to think how evil one man could be to command his army to slaughter and torture 11 million Jews.

The thing I found amazing about Eva Olsson was that even though her family was brutally murdered she had the courage and the strength to fight through the horrible living conditions and end up surviving the Holocaust. Eva Olsson is a survivor but more of all a hero.

Norval/Team Building Day!

Norval was once again a great expirence, except that this time was much bettter. One we did some crazy activities that made me have more trust in my peers. These activities also made certain people show great leadership skills and also as a group we were able to make great plan, ideas and goals. Also what an adreanaline rush climbing that wall was amazing how a group of 13 year olds were able to climb a 14" wall with nothing but 16 kids and a flat wall. I aslo enjoyed the drum circle very much it was so interesting to hear many different intruments playing at the same time.

Let me explain to you what Norval is. Norval is a place owned by UCC and it is used to ecourage young people to work together and learn new leadership skills. Norval has many high rope courses to help students have trusts in their peers. It also hase some low rope courses to trust and respect your peers ideas and to have everyone make group dicisions.

We also had the privlige of expirencing a drum circle that was lead by the Drum Cafe. I learned that many of my peers had great ideas and that as a group we could work great together to get the goal accomplished. Many of the people that are usually shy contributed in great amounts and it was really cool to see everyone expressing their opinions through their own drum also different people were given other instruments and when evryine played them at once and stoped and started all at the sane time was really amazing to see. Overall I personally had a great time at Norval and learned alot I think this is a great team building day and it was also alot of fun!

There are many things that are great in life, many of these things are items that people consider to be big, but there are also things that are amazing that are small unusual compared to everyday objects. For intanse im going to talk to you about something that I find absoulutly, unbelievably amazing, this item is a pen. Just think for a second how many special or important documents would not have been made or signed without a pen.

Also a pen can write down work, feelings, documents, history, and many other things. How many other items can do that? Now many people take a pen for granted but just think how your life would without one and how important it is. The other speacial thing im going to talk about is a shoe.

Now you may be asking well why a shoe, well there are many reasons why i think a shoe is so speacial. One, a shoe can tell u evrything about a person. Where they've been, What style they are. Where there from. What they did. A shoe can tell you lot's of things that I bet you never thought they could. Also a shoe can do many things like take you places and most importantly provide comfort for your foot at the most desprite of times.

These are just two of the things you should learn to appritiate everyday. Hopefully i've insired you to take the time and think about your own little thing that is small and unreconized and think of how important it is to you.

We Day!!

We Day was awsome! First, there was many famous people there to give speeches and inspire youth to go from me to we. Some of these people include Mike "pinball" clemens and craig and mark keilburger. Second, there was entertainment, preformers include Justin Bieber, Jonas Brothers and Hedley. Last, I learned about an issue that is a massive problem and needs to be fixed and that there is a no better solution then to teach and inspire youth to change the world.

Personally as a audiance member i felt that all of the speeches were very well written and spoken. These speeches were written to inspire youth to change the world and they did a great job hearing the crowd cheer and scream about changing the world and seeing all the passion made me fell inspired to do something. My favorite speech was Mike Clemens him talking was so insipreing and he was so passionate about his speech and what he was talking about.

I had many great memories that will stay with me forever and also many great thoughts and speeches that will remind me to do something good for the rest of my life. After We Day I felt inspired and I still feel that way and I hope that I will be able to make a great deal of change in someone or something's world for the better.
