Astronauts landed on the moon in 1969.

Space is a void.

Take off for blasting.

Rockets in space.

Open for landing.

Neptune is one of the coldest planets.

On the moon is rocks and gravity.

King Washington is back.

     

Just an ordinary day, sitting in bed discovering what I could do. Because I wasn’t those type of people who doesn’t like to do the dishes. I was one of those kids who would just sit around.

But it came to me let's build a robot to do the dishes. But Hmmmm what to name it ahh king Washington should be his name. But you see I never knew how to build a robot. I just never knew what materials I needed. But I always had that one little scientist in the family. It must of been hard for him just because none really listened to him because let’s just say it was really complicated.

But it’s his time to shine as I will be the only one who will listen to him just so I can build this robot. So we went to the hardware store to get steel,metal and wires.

I realised how long it was going to take. Finally 2 days after tedious wiring and machining. Wellah King Washington is built. I guess it’s no dishes for me for a while. I think dad was really at me cause he could hear an anvil smashing at night.  But I had to disguise the robot as me so dad wouldn’t the robot.

Well this is me on break a lazy sack of jelly. But I had fallen asleep. I could hear people screaming. Parents limping from the accident that happened. King Washington had been throwing plates, blowing bubbles,and squirting dishwashing liquid. Legend has it he once squirted a gallon of dish washing liquid at the sun which made the solar eclipse v2.

But let’s get back to the story. “Ahhhhhhh please STOPPPP!” Yelling through my lungs. As I yell my lungs are begging for air. By the time he gets to his hometown Washington DC. President Donald Trump is really fedup as Washington threw plates at the cement wall. But it wasn't an ordinary plate it was bullet proof. So the plate was pretty much indestructable. He threw it so hard that the entire wall collapsed.

But were at the white house so we could call secret service? By the time they came it was too late. Washington was never found. “Waiit! Look there he is over there by the tree standing by some portal thing” yelled Donald Trump “Wait don’t go near it, it is a time machine,” I screamed.

“Get back here Washington DON’T GO IN you dont know whats on the other side.”

(But Washington never listened so he jumped in)

"Come on Trump you have to come with me. I really need your help." “Sorry he’s all yours” said Donald Trump.

So in the portal I went. I hope I'm in the right time. In the slightest corner of my eye I could  see Washington. But another glimpse I could see a dinosaur. But like everyone else's plan mine would be to run.

So I dashed through the jungle/forest as fast as I could because I didn’t have the bare hands to fight the dinosaur. But somehow, someway I needed to find Washington. I could see the metal of his body fading away. But I wasn’t going to give up.

I dodged the dinosaur. But as I dodged the dinosaur I had to speed up to Washington. Finally I could see Washington so I screamed until my lungs couldn’t breathe anymore “Washington you need to come back.” But he never listened. Finally he came back and we went into the portal. Now I can remove his battery. YESSS I got it.

Now I have to hide you in the shed where you won’t cause so much harm to anybody else. Well Washington is packed away and finally everyone was safe.

Now I can tell my teacher the amazing story I had.

THE END.

SOCIAL MEDIA

Should we keep social media or maybe even ban it.

                              

I think social media should be banned because we don’t get enough fitness and could cause viruses that might force parents to pay. Also can cause obesity from the lack of exercise

If you get obese it probably could cause high blood pressure and death just from staring at the screen.

Just cause you’re, fit doesn’t mean you can stay inside all day on your ipad. But if you're only on your ipad / computer for about maybe  10 to 20 minutes and doing fitness exercise it might probably be alright. As long as you don’t stay inside for half of the day. But I still guess it’s not a good daily routine.

 

However there are some good reasons why we should we keep it. For example, say you’re not good at CPR maybe there could be a couple of ways to learn on youtube.

But not all information is true. Therefore if someone is choking but you don’t do it correctly because you got it from the internet you might accidentally injure the victim or puncture their organs.

Another consequence is trends that go viral. Little kids try to follow them which causes injury and deaths. For example, there was this trend that teenagers and EVEN adults did. They lit themselves on fire and jumped in a pile of snow or a lake.

Therefore, I think out of all my reasons I would take social media  away just because of the  bad things that cause deaths. But if we wanted to fix it we could either let kids go on the ipad or computer for 30 minutes (put a 30 minute lock on it) and then get sent outside. Also trends should get restricted or maybe people who start them should get arrested.

Food Report - Carbonation

What is Carbonation?

Carbonation is actually carbon dioxide kept under pressure in a bottle or in a natural spring water. After opening the cap and releasing air the carbon dioxide will slowly be relieved which makes bubbles of carbon dioxide.

Carbonated water is also known as club soda, soda water, sparkling water, seltzer water, or fizzy water.

What are Carbonated Drinks?

Carbonated drinks give seltzer Its bite! (Seltzer is water in carbon dioxide which is when gas under pressure has been dissolved. Some of these have additives such as sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, magnesium and other minerals)

       

Soft drinks.

While the term "soft drink" is commonly used in product labeling and on restaurant menus, in many countries these drinks are more commonly referred by regional names, including carbonated beverage, coke, fizzy drink, fizzy juice, cool drinks, tonic, and mineral water.

Is Carbonated Water Bad For You?

Sparkling water can damage your teeth but it’s not that Bad. Sparkling water can erode your tooth enamel, but it's not quite as bad as it sounds. ... They aren't nearly as acidic or corrosive as soda, but some flavored sparkling waters have acidity levels on par with fruit juice.

However, over time the acid in sparkling water dissolves the calcium in your teeth leaving behind a mushy mess called a cavity.

Fun little fact. Coke was actually supposed to be a toilet or bathroom product but people started to drink, which made it a beverage.

Another fun little fact. Coke was made in 1886 on May the 8th. So if your birthday is May the 8th then It… guess you're lucky.
