My Explanation writing on Lent

In our Catholic Faith, Lent is a time of Fasting, Alms giving & Praying.  Fasting in terms of Lent means giving up something, that you really love or need.  Alms giving is about giving money or things to caritas, or to anyone in need of whatever.  And then Praying, praying can be simple or complex, but it totally depends on how you actually Pray.  People pray for all sorts of things,  when they are in need of protection, love, comfort and other things.  
This Year Lent Started on the 5th of March - 17th April.

Lent goes on for 40 days,  it is the 40 days in the 6 weeks before Easter.  The forty day are the days that Jesus was led to the desert by the spirit, to be put to the test of Satan.  Satan is the opposite of having Faith, Hope & Love.  Satan is the bad side to everything.  Jesus was tempted about three times by Satan, but Jesus stayed strong and held on to his Faith in God,  he ignored Satan and always reflected back on the scriptures in the bible.  Lent is a time of forgiving and forgetting, so stay true to God. “Worship only the Lord your God, and do not put him to the test.”

Why Using Netbooks Are Good for our learning

Personally I think net books helps me a lot with my learning, it helps me find out information that I can’t find anywhere else, but the internet.  To me the internet is my Best friend,  it has the answers to all my questions.



The net books helps me to learn more creatively.  It gives me the opportunity to create something out of learning, so that it can be presentable.  I say that working on line is way more easier than drawing the layout on your piece of paper, and wasting your time erasing  every single bit of it, just because it doesn't look right.   It also allows me to access my work anywhere at any time.

Well I guess what I’m trying to say is that net books are a great piece of technology,  it can help me in all aspects of my learning. But! despite the advantages that net books have to offer, there is also a downside to it. Disadvantages that may apply would be faulty errors, vulnerability to hacking and electrical consumption. We rely on these net books to hold and store useful information but when something goes wrong, work that we have put much effort into has been discarded without any chance of regaining it. This could possibly be the result of a faulty net book. Another factor towards to the disadvantages of net books would be the electrical consumption. To charge and manage these net books would require a lot of power and power is something that we are all limited too. But in the end, the advantages of net book use, outweigh the disadvantages as they are vital to our learning and will undoubtedly benefit us in the future.


But then,  it is still a great tool for our learning. I find it awesomely helpful and creative.  But this is obviously what I think of the net books,  and it is my opinion on net books. 
"Net book are Great !"

My Response - A Reading from the Gospel according to Luke

A Reading from the Gospel according to Luke
***
Chapter 6 Verse 27 - 37
***
" Love your enemies, & be Kind to those who Hate you. "

I can reflect to that phrase,
because in life I have come across people who have HATED me
and have decide to become my ENEMIES.

But its natural for people to hate another human being,
but hey life shouldn't be full of Hatred. It should be full of loving and happy people,  
that is why I choose to ignore those who hate me and just Love them from the inside.

SO REMEMBER PEOPLE : 
LOVE YOUR ENEMIES, 
AND BE KIND TO THOSE WHO HATE YOU.



My Special Person

*** Opening Statement ***
To me a Special Person, is someone who I can look up to.  Someone that I can express my feeling with, and talk to and know that someone cares.  A special person is someone who will stick by my side and cheer me up when I'm feeling down,  and is also supportive of me.  That is why Dawn is my Special person


( Body )
Dawn and I have been best friends for four years. She has stuck by my side since day one, when I first started school. During the years we have had our ups and downs, but we’ve always managed to get through to each other. Dawn has always been very supportive of me in everything I do.  When I give up on myself, she is always there to motivate me, and help me do better. Dawn may say things that can hurt me physically and mentally, but I love that she’s an honest person,  I love that I can trust her with anything, and know that she won’t go around spreading things I told her in confidence.  


( Conclusion )

Dawn has always been there for me, we help each other, and we treat each other that way we would like to be treated.  We both appreciate each other for who we are, and I am very lucky to have someone like Dawn in my life.  If it wasn’t for Dawn I wouldn’t have become more confident in myself. Dawn is like my older sister I've never had, I love her for the unique person she is.

Welcome to 2014


My Holiday

During my holidays, there were times that were : Happy, Exciting, Boring and Scary.
***
In the holidays, the happiest time for me would be the day I went to the beach with my family and friends. As the day past, we had more and more fun. We made cannon balls out of wet sand and through it against each others backs. As painful as it sounds, it didn’t hurt at all. We went for our last swim and then headed home, because it was getting late. We all walked home in exhaustion.
***
The Boring part of my holidays was having to stay home and clean the house.  Sometimes it was fun because, I do it with my sister sometimes and we usually play while we clean.  But then its actually worth cleaning, because no one likes living in a house that looks like a pig sty.
The next day was my cousins birthday, he was turning 5.  His birthday was awesome, especially the theme. The theme to his birthday party was
{ Call of Duty }, there was camoflage clothes left, right and centre. There was lollie scrambles and all the kids were playing their own games. Like tiggy, dodgeball and rugby and touch.
***

My holidays were incredible, it wasn’t fancy but it was something.  I went to different places and enjoyed myself.  But I also couldn’t wait to come back to school and see all my friends.
