It’s the time of Halloween again. A time when people can dress up as scary monsters or ghost and go collect candy. It’s a very fun time of the year for me because for one you get all the free candy you want and it’s a time where you can go out and get scared and I like getting scared. Also on Halloween I like to go to haunted houses with people because it’s not scary when you’re with other people and you can enjoy it better.
This Halloween I’m still not sure what I am doing yet but I’ll probably find out tonight. Two classic Halloween movies that I enjoy watching is Friday the 13th and A Nightmare on Elm Street. I also like seeing all the houses decorated with Halloween decorations and seeing it at night all lit up. Another funny thing is seeing all the little kids getting scared running around as they come out of a haunted house. Their faces all filled with tears because of being so scared is not I’m going to say funny but is just another way it puts the mood into Halloween.
One thing almost every kid likes doing is going out on devils night and vandalizing people’s property. Even though I don’t do it, it seems a lot of fun because it’s like you have a big sense of adrenalin pumping through your body and you just want to get out there and do something. It ranges in a variety of stuff like kids could TP peoples house or egg them or anything like that many kids enjoy doing all this stuff.
The only bad thing about Halloween is about all that candy kids eat after they get it. All the kids just eat and eat the candy and then they get cavities and that’s when the dentist love it because they have more and more people that come in and have cavities. Halloween is a very fun holiday for many people and everybody likes it because it’s just a fun holiday for us kids where we can go out and just have loads of fun. Either it’s with family or friends you still have fun either way. One thing I know for sure is that I’m at least going to one haunted house that is right by my house and is actually quite scary for a homemade haunted house. I am going to enjoy it.

Space


My favorite subject in science to talk about is apace. In my eyes I think space is a very fun subject to learn and you can learn a lot of interesting new things about it. The reason I like space so much is because I am pretty good at it and its fun learning about the new planets and how we are sending many rovers out to different planets to learn more about them. It would be pretty fun being an astronomer because you get to study and learn new and interesting things about space and the interesting things that are out there.
One new thing that seems really exciting is how they found water on the moon. If there’s water and then moon then there can be some proof that there was once some life on the moon. It would be very exciting to find life on the other planets not just in our solar system but in the other galaxies there are in space. It would be very new and exciting if some day we can find life on some other planet or if we can actually get out of our galaxy and into another one because we have never even been out of our solar system so if we could get out of our galaxy it would be great news and it would make history.
The thing that I think is really cool is the rings around Saturn. Even though we can’t land anything on the rings of Saturn it would just look really cool seeing rings around a planet. Even though we will never be able to even land anything on Saturn, I think it would be really cool to get out there and see it but the bad things is, it would be way too far and long to go all the way out to Saturn.
If I could live on one planet in our solar system I would pick Venus because it’s always warm there. Even though we can’t really go to Venus because of the dangerous gases and because it way to hot, I would still like to be there if we were able to live on it.
In the long run I hope we are able to land any rovers on a planet that we have never landed on because we, landing a rover on another planet will be history and because it would be very exciting.

The Conflict of Swine Flu


The news conflict I’m writing about is the case of swine flu. I feel like this disease is over rated. So many people are making a big deal about this swine flu disease but honestly in my opinion I think the regular flu is worse. The reason the swine flu seems so much worse than the regular flu is because we’ve never had a vaccine or medications for it so people can’t get cured right away so it just seems like that’s it’s a lot worse. The normal flu just seems a lot worse than swine flu anyways because the swine flu is what a high fever?

I have a connection to this because I know someone who had swine flu and they looked absolutely fine to me. They were still joking around and they told me they felt fine. The only thing the person had was just a high fever and from that the doctor said this person had swine flu. In my honest opinion to this subject I think people are freaking out over something that’s actually not that big of a deal. When this subject first came at hand I thought oh my god if someone gets this they’re dead. After awhile though when they started talking more about it and when someone I knew got it I realized it’s not very that deadly. Ever since this flu has started many people have been worried about getting the swine flu so some people wouldn’t even send their kids to school because they didn’t want them getting exposed to the other kids because they didn’t want their own kids catching the disease.

Even though they are coming out with the new swine flu shot people are still having reactions to the shot. Since the vaccine is so new they haven’t gone back and revised the shot so it gives people the weird reactions. Just the regular flu shot has been dealt with a lot now and the doctors know what reactions it gives to people and how it will harm them so they know it a lot better then they know the swine flu shot. Right now only 14 states have the swine flu vaccine shot. Some people receive the antidote in a nasal spray. Soon almost all states will receive this vaccine to start preventing the source of swine flu. So People will now actually start getting their cure for this disease or at least prevent it.

Hockey


Have you ever played hockey? Well hockey is my favorite sport. I have been playing hockey since I’ve been 2 years old. I have played for many teams throughout my hockey career. The team I am playing for right now is the Livonia knights. The only bad thing about hockey is that on some nights I have hockey until 11 and the next day at school I am half asleep throughout the day and it’s not like I can even come home and go back to sleep because I have to do some homework and then I have soccer practice.

Hockey is a very fun sport. It’s a very fast pace game and you always have to be alert when you’re playing because if you have the puck and you have your head down, your most likely to get rocked. I really like it because I just love the feeling of skating down the ice with cold air blowing in your face but it’s like you don’t even care because you feel like you’re flying. It’s even a fun sport to play when you’re angry because you can take all your anger out on the ice by either just skating hard or going and just drilling someone. Some of the games can get really intense too. Sometimes when people fight it can get really big and once we had a game where both teams were on the ice and everyone was just fighting. We just stopped the game and it wasn’t even half done yet. That was probably the most intense game I ever had. The other coach was the one who sent his whole team onto the ice. The bad thing about this game also was that we only had one ref so he really couldn’t do much.
I really like to watch hockey too. I usually watch the red wings a lot. Sometimes I just watch whatever hockey that’s on because you can actually learn a lot about hockey from watching the pros because they really know what they’re doing out there. It’s also pretty fun seeing how fast the game speed is because compared to the speed of my games, they are a lot! Faster. My favorite player in the NHL is Alexander Ovechkin because he always knows what he’s doing with the puck and he scores a lot. Even though he doesn’t have the best team he is still really good.
