Writing Prompt

- Imagine you had a hundred dollars, but you couldn't keep it. You had to give it away to a person or charity. Who would you give it to? What would you want them to do with it?
If I suddenly got given 100 dollars or found 100 dollars, of course the excitement would be real. I would be jumping up and and down and squealing on the inside. But if I found out that I couldn’t really spend it on anything but heart would break into nearly one million pieces. And for those who say money can’t bring happiness, you are absolutely wrong.
But who would I give it to. I always think about this question weirdly enough. But the answers are somewhat greedy or sneaky.
I would give it to my sister but she's also greedy and wouldn't give any to me. And how will any of that benefit me.
If I gave it to my brother he would spend it all on that car stuff that most boys use. Or buy lollies to make diabetes come his way.
So I thought harder than I ever had and dreamed more than I have ever dreamt and the idea came to me. I would give it to my mum. Why you may ask? Because my mum is a civilised humble person.
So if you ever find money on the floor, even if you don’t have to give it, still give it because you can guarantee to get something out of it.
Nature - Nurture
Nature - Nurture
Usually intelligence is influenced by their environment or genes. Intelligence usually comes of a product from Nurture to Nature. But what do I mean by that.
Nurture is the care you get and sometimes the love people provide for you. Nature is of course your surroundings. But not as in smelling pretty flowers or sun bathing on a sunny day. It's all about enjoying it and learning from it. Don’t get it? Well continue reading and soon find out.
Nurture is what we will start with first. Studies show a series of tests given the facts that kids who are given love, fed well or even live in wealthier places or homes, that they are guaranteed to have a good courier and reach far places in their lifespan. But for kids that live in poor houses or areas, and have parent walking out of you, studies also show that they are less fortunate to succeed in life.
Talking at the dinner table is usually used for intelligent people. Why you may ask I don’t really know, but again, studies show that the only reason that is, is because they want to talk about their day and provide more information, but as for less intelligent people, they either choose to just go to other rooms or somewhere, and they don’t find that much interest in talking about their learning or their day.
But Iq’s change if you are adopted. Questions are probably bundling up i your head so let me explain. If you were once an orphan living in a poor city and then adopted into a rich area or family. You are 97% sure to succeed in life. The other 3% is the disadvantage if you have been traumatized. It is also said that adoptive parents are more intelligent that biological parents.
In conclusion I am not saying that you have to be rich to succeed in life (Although that would be good), but if you do have pursurvirence you are for sure going somewhere in life.
3D design
Tinker card is a site which helps us to familiarize with 3D shapes. It gives you task to complete with the shapes which are quite easy. found it easy though, because everything was outlined for you do that you couldn't possibly get anything wrong.
Selwyn College
On the 30th of November myself and four other peers were off of school for the day and spent it at Selwyn College . Our transportation systems were up to us but when we arrived I was more than excited and relived that I had actually made it this far.
When we arrived we were already led straight through to the theater awaiting other students as well as the teachers. But probably after about one thousand minutes everyone had finally arrived and we got into it. We were all welcomed warmly which a few speeches from the principal as well as some of the other teachers. We had ambassadors that helped us along the way. After everyone said what they had to say we were then led off in groups of 25-26 and sent straight through to different classroom.
When we were all in the classrooms everyone was then seated with a paper and a test in front of them. The first test we did was not really a test, it was a pamphlet which we had to fill out about how we feel and other things like that. Then after 5 minutes we were then about to start our English test.
The English test lasted 20 minutes, and its not like when your in primary when your teacher gives you maybe 5 extra minutes, because the school bell had rang and that signaled all the teachers to collect the sheets of paper. But then my worst subject was next. Mathematics.
For math we were actually given 40 minutes to do this. It was very difficult not only because I was scared the time was going to run out, but also because I didn't know a single thing that was on the test. Well, not everything.
Finally we reached lunchtime. (My favorite place regardless where I am.) Lunchtime was short coming from us who has hour lunchtimes. But it was also exciting because after that we would be sitting through a two hour play.
Finishing up lunchtime everyone was then sent off to to the hall to wait for the play but once it started it was very exciting. All the singing , lights and their great acting was so good and made me like selwyn even more.
I am very excited to be going to selwyn next year from the experience I had and the fun as well.
