In America, school is very different. It’s not like the movies, they go to school, they don’t sing on tables like high school musical, they have a canteen which they get snacks from and they have hamburgers for lunch. Many kids in California think that that the movies are very different from reality and that they exaggerate the schools in America.

Many kids in America say that they see lots of movie stars and famous people around their area. They look in magazines and see the movie stars and think that they have already seen them and are lucky to see them go to Oscar Award and other award shows.

Their lifestyle is pretty much the same as ours, they go to school, they do work, they have lunch, they go home, they do homework and they go to bed. They also have holidays and they go to the movies and eat popcorn while there watching the newest film which came out.

Many kids imagine Australia as a dry, hot, desert filled with kangaroos and wallabies. They say that it is just like a big desert and that it isn’t like America and all their movie stars which they see.

There are fifty states in America and they are all full of thousands and millions of people. America, theoretically, is the most powerful country in the world and could defeat many countries with little help from alias. This is because of its vast amount of military personal and citizens.

In Bundanoon, they have banned bottled water. All of the bottles have been removed around that area. Bundanoon are banning plastic water bottles because they are worrying about the waste they are making.

It cost $3000 dollars per 1,000 lirtes for pre bottled water, it cost $1.20 for tap water, it is an exspensive cost for pre bottled water.

Drinking water helps keep our body hydrated and cool. It is essential that we drink water every day to keep healthy. There is 70% percent water in your brain, 90% percent water in your lungs, 20% percent water in your bones and about 80% percent in your blood.

I think the bottle industry is booming because people buy them when they forget to fill up the reusable water bottles on the trip somewhere, so they buy plastic bottles from shops.

Most people rely on plastic bottles every day beacuse they are quicker to get and more reliable. The only downside is that they use 200ml of oil to make a 1 litre plastic bottle. All the bottles of water end up in the waste and create’s a lot of polution.

A women in Thailand was arrested after her friends put a bar cloth in her bag. Thailand police thought ii was not funny and arrested her. She went to cour and waited until they decided her punishment, some time that month they let her off and she went home.

Before you go overseas you should always check the laws before you travel overseas or you may end up in court or jail. The maximum penalty is five years in jail for stealing in Thailand. A Thai court suspended her six-month jail sentence after the Governor of Phuket paid her $38 fine.

Her family was really upset when they heard that their mother had been arrested and wished that she could just go home.

In Singapore you can be arrested for chewing gum on the street. In Florence you can be arrested for sitting, eat or drink on a bench near a church. In some countriesyou can be arrested for taking a picture of a government building and even over staying your visa for a day can make you end up in jail. In some countries if you are caught smuggling drugs in to the country can serve you a life time in jail or death charge.

Some people think you can only find mummies in Egypt around the pyramids. Others don’t even believe in mummies, but some archaeologists in Chile have found mummies over 8000 year old mummies in good condition.

 Archaeologists are looking for mummies in the ground at Chile. Once they find bits of mummies they take them and put them back together.

The mummies have stayed in such good condition because it is very hot in Chile so all the bacteria burn’s up. They put sticks and cloth in the mummies so that it stays in one piece.

Archaeologists believe that this only the start to finding mummies and have only just started.

In sydney a lot more people have found a worse situation then a shark attack, drowning has ocured over the last couple of months. Most of these problems are because of the srong rips.

What you should do when you are stuck in a rip is NOT PANIC and swim sideways out of the rip into the white horses , if it is to strong wait a couple of mintues and then try agian. REMEBER rips are faster than olympic swimmers. Over 1500 lifguards are saving people in a year which is about 50 people drowning a year. Some beaches have been closed due to the incedents that are happening. About 17 thousand rips exist on Aussie beaches at any one time. Whole families have drowned in rips, last month a brave body boarder saved the lives of two teenage brothers and their friend on the South Australian coast, But he was unable to save the dad.

For many years the forests of Borneo in Asia have been cleared for timber but now instead of regrowing  the forest, farmers are growing palm oil crops to sell to supermarkets. The forest are the natural habitat of Orangutans and because of the farmers the Orangutans are edging towards extinction. 

In clearing the forests of timber many orangutans are orphaned, these  orphaned Orangutans have been helped and fed at Zoo’s and animal rescue centres. Many of the rescue centres helped baby Orangutans climb and feed themselves so they can be released back into the wild!

If the farmers stopped cutting down palm oil tree’s, hundreds will lose their jobs and will have trouble getting other jobs.

 I think that we should limit the cutting down of palm oil tree’s so that the Orangutans won’t die and explore other ways to get vegetable oil
