Being hated all his life


Being hated all his life

A young boy had rocks being thrown at him , injuries caused on him and words said to him . He had desired for a better life. It was like he was a punching bag and everyone could hurt all the time, it was like he was invisible who people barely talked to . Most words he has ever said was ahhh,ouch , stop , please , stop hurting me and other things that sounds like you're being punished. He’s been saying those words everyday of his life and now that he has grown up he couldn’t ask for a better life.

Kiwi Kid’s News - Jupiter’s Moon spewing water jets


jupiter
New evidence has shown that Jupiter’s icy moon Europa throws jets of water out into space. Scientists first reported the behaviour in 2013 using the Hubble telescope, but have now made a follow-up sighting. It is significant because Europa is one of the most likely places to find microbial life beyond Earth because of its huge ocean of liquid water. Flying through the jets with an instrumented spacecraft would be an effective way to test the possibility. Scientists are also looking at the possibility of attempting to capture a sample of water and bring it back to Earth for more detailed biological analysis.The suggestion is that the jets reach several hundred kilometres in height before then falling back onto Europa. The calculation based on the 2013-reported work estimated a volume of water equivalent to an Olympic swimming pool could be being spewed into space about every eight minutes.

If there was no power

Kuraia

If there was no power

If there is no power make sure you have torches and batteries in your emergency kit. Stay tuned with the radio to keep up with all the latest news as well as stocking up on food that doesn’t need to be cooked or something you can cook your food on like a bbq. Lastly when the power goes out eat all the fridge food first before your cupboard food .

Things you need when there’s no power :
Torch/Batteries
Radio
Pre cooked food
(Be sure to eat refrigerated food first)

And if there’s any other thing you think is best to have when there’s no power then keep it in mind.

Apple pastry

Kuraia

We all gathered in room 8 to see what we were making. There was pastry , tremendous apples , brown sugar , baking paper and essentials like knives and spoons.

I was considering that we were planning on making apple pies but really it was just the same as apple pies but designing it on how you want it. As you can see, this was my boring design . I am not artistic but you probably already knew it when you saw my design.

As I took a piece of my apple pastry , Blahhhhhhh. It wasn’t so satisfying . Apples didn’t really match with pastry. The juice from the apples came out of the apple and it was mixed with the pastry but out of this dish I thought that plane pastry was more tempting than apple pastry.

Anyways it was enjoyable cooking it.
