Flip flops, sandals , sunscreen, bug spray!

Summer is approaching quickly and I have started making my list of things that I will need for a perfect summer vacation.  So far, my summer-need list includes: a trampoline, a treat that’s cold (a.k.a. ice cream or Popsicle) a parent that’s willing to drive me to the water park and buy me slushies, a backyard swimming pool (but a public swimming pool may have to do), flip flops, sandals or crocs and lots of friends. That’s what I’ll need for a perfect summer, what’s on your list?

You ate what?

This week I ate 11 Bar BQ flavoured mealworms as a dare. On the radio a few weeks ago I heard a person ate a cigarette butt for $50. We made a video of me eating the mealworms and might put it on youtube. So tell me, what is the grossest thing you’ve eaten or heard of someone eat? Here is the link to my video:

Would you like a superpower?

If you could choose to have any kind of superpowers what would it be and why it would be cool? If I had superpowers I would like to have the power of invisibility or flying. It would be interesting because I could scare people by holding up objects and it would be totally unique to fly through the sky!

Recycling

Recycling affects every living organism on the planet.There are good things and bad things that recycling does. In the next few paragraphs the pros and cons will be listed.

A disadvantage would be that it takes more time to reproduce a recycled product than to make a new one. Another disadvantage would be that in some places not recycling is illegal therefore people living in these places cannot reuse a lot of things.

An advantage would be that it reduces the use of non-renewable resources which reduces air pollution and clear-cutting. Another advantage would be that it would save space in landfills.

Now, is recycling good or bad; what do you think?   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DTPnyCjF6gA

Summer vacation

I like summer vacation cause you don't have to go to  school and because you get to stay longer outside. When it`s summer vacation I go camping,this year we have  planned to go to British Columbia. I also enjoy bike riding in the summer  with my neighbours  so we head to the park and ride our bikes there. Also in summer vacation I like  to go swimming .What do you like to do in summer vacation? Do you have something planned for this summer vacation?

My Biggest Journey

Hi everyone, When I came to Canada  I was only 4 years old . It was a big adventure and my first time on an airplane. The entire journey from my hometown in Germany to Calgary and then to Edmonton took  around 24 hours. By the end of the trip we were all exhausted. It was hard to find new friends but of course I found some that always have my back. The hardest of all was to fit in and learn the culture because I didn’t speak a word of English at that age. Now after almost 6 years everything is fine and I can speak English. So  if you ever had to move  to a different country where would you go and what would you not like about it?

Daylight Savings Time

What do you think about DST? Is it worth doing the DST in our world today? Why or why not?
