The European Union and what's going on with it.

Image result for the euToday me and Granpa where just conversing over breakfast then somehow we started talking about Politics and then one thing leaded to another and I found myself watching a documentary called the Brexit. It was all about what the European union is and what it does.
I tried to take notes but halfway through I was getting tired of pausing the video and playing it back and the notes that I had recorded got deleted maybe because I didn't save them? (I'm still trying to figure out my new phone) So i'll try recall things from memory.
The European union is a group of 28 countries unified, It's supposed to be a democracy. But first we must understand what a democracy is.
Democracy comes from ancient greek. Demos means the people. Democracy is supposed to be that the people choose who becomes the leader. The elected official is supposed to serve the people not dictate them. In return they get a little bit of the power and the people can take it away from him anytime. At least thats the ideology of it.
The European union is made up of seven main istitutions which include, the European union parliament, the council of the European union, the european union council and the european union comission, as well as other seemingly pointless institutions.
The comission is appointed by the government and the members of the EU aren't recognized by most of the public. Not much of europe recognise their own politicians. *cough*mygranpadoes*cough* and don't get me started in the parliament.
Members of Parliament don't get a say in laws. This means they cant: Propose legislation, oppose legislation or even appeal legislation. They basically have to agree on everything the unelected comission says, and they get payed more than they should.
That's right people are getting paid in the EU more than they should. There is literally a mall for the people who work in the EU. If someone loses a comercial job outside of the EU they'll go to the EU and they'll become "an elite". And then their prices go up because the public have to buy things from this crappy company who's prices are higher than the quality of their products. It's not fair.
And don't get me started on the regulations. I found out that there are around 454 regulations for towels you wanna know how stupid that is. I actully can't say what word I should use to describe it but it starts with an R and its in one the the black eyed peas most famous party songs. You know what makes it even more dumb. There are around 36 regulations for radiators. Radiators. 36 for radiators and 454 for towels. How did they make it like that. It's stupid. Just plain dumb. Now britain is leaving because they want freedom to trade with whatever countries they want and I dont disagree.
The European Union doesn't seem to be doing much to help Europes Economy and It'd be better if it didn't exist.

It is a great movie set in the mountain range in the Himalayas where yetis build up there society around myths and legends. in this mountain where a young yeti spots a human he wants to prove himself right because everyone thinks he's lying he goes on a huge adventure.

Meanwhile a human animal lover is trying to get noticed on the internet and has an idea to be a youtube fraud and has the idea to get a "real life" yeti on camera. Migo finds him and takes him back to the village.

Rich and Famous P.O.V

Walt: Consider Both sides of an argument

In my personal opinion I think that being Rich and famous in a celebrity situation wouldn’t really make me happy. For a lot of celebrities being rich and famous is just a homing beacon for paparazzi or scandal or social media. A lot of celebrities that are children of other celebrities are also pressured like everyone is expecting them to be almost as good as their parents, but they want to be something different than their parents.

To be honest I think I would just want to be rich. Because I could get a lot of opportunities that not much people could get. I could help my children and family and that is what would make me Happy. I think that I would rather help people than entertain people in music and movies I would make a lot of money being a doctor or surgeon.

But some famous people aren’t celebrities. Some are really famous authors like J.K Rowling and Rick Riordan. They don’t earn as much money as the celebrities but they are pretty famous and they seem happy because people aren’t as obsessed with them. So I think I might like to be an author fame wise. That would be the only fame that would make me happy.

Task Description: For this task I made a google doc and started writing my opinion on wealth and fame on the doc. I then shared it onto the class discussion. after i shared it onto the class discussion i posted it onto my blog with a Walt, a Task Description, a Title, and Labels.

Remake of Rumplestiltskin

Walt: use descriptive vocab to paint a picture in your readers mind

Once upon a time there was a miller and he had a beautiful daughter. One day the miller went to the king and boasted about how her daughter was amazing.

“She is the best girl in the land sire.” said the Miller “No one is fairer the her she has fair golden hair and glistening green eyes and uhh … she can do amazing things like weave gold from straw.”

That caught the kings attention. He ordered the miller to bring his daughter to the castle. He took the beautiful miller's daughter to the hay storage room.

“Make this straw into gold.” Said the King, and with that he slammed the door, locked it tight and walked to his buffet. The Miller's daughter wept and wept for she could only make straw into silver. Suddenly a little man came in.

 “Do not worry” said the little man “I will spin this straw into gold for you. But what will you give me in return.”

“I will give you the ring from my finger” said the miller's daughter and she slid off the ring and gave it to the little man. By the time that the little man finished making the straw into gold. The little man disappeared from sight. The king came in and was impressed. He took her to a bigger room with even more straw

“Weave this straw into gold.” He said. “Have it done by the morning.

“But sire” said the miller’s daughter “all that weaving has weakened me. I can only weave silver now”

“Very well” said the king. “Weave the straw into silver.” He shut the door locked it tight and went to his brothers wedding. The miller’s daughter weaved the silver and never needed the little man again, and many years later she married the king and they had a beautiful baby boy and lived happily till the end of their lives

Task Description: For this task I made a new doc and selected a fairy tale. I then recreated the fairy tale
 in the google doc. i then posted it onto my blog with a huge standard.

Why you should exercise and what it does for you? - By Bethan

Do you like running? No? Do you like dancing? Yes? They may be different but they give you the same results: They Both give you an adrenaline rush, they both give you sweaty pits, they are both aerobic exercise. Once you finish reading this piece of writing you will want to get up and go for a run, or go to zumba class, or do something that gets you sweating.

The first reason that you should be doing exercise right now is because It reduces the risks of obesity, stroke, heart disease and a whole lot more. Exercise helps you in so many ways it gets the heart pumping which gives oxygenated blood to the brain, you can see how that would help you in you term essay right. As well as giving good blood to the brain it gets your lungs working as well, meaning more oxygenated blood, meaning happy brain.

Exercise also helps the release of hormones which make your brain cells increase in growth rate. It helps refresh the brain plasticity which help form new connections in cells in a wide range of cortical areas in the brain. In a study done at the university of british columbia it has been proven that exercise helps increase the size of the hippocampus.

The final reason you should be exercising right now is because every time you sit down it increases the amount of energy that gets turn into fat. The more you exercise the more fat you burn. Many children these days are obese because they are sitting down more than they are running around doing exercise.

So get up off your butt and run around. Go to zumba! Why are you still here? Go away, stop reading this. I’m telling you to go away and ride your bike or walk your dog or do something that will get you sweating. Because that is the exercise that helps you get better in life.
