Editorial-Sharks

When you think of SHARKS probably you get scared and you wish their extinction. Everybody hate them because they are mean and they kill us. I think that sharks are mean but it's their istinct to kill and eat us. For cows and chickens we are like sharks because we also kill them, maybe in a less cruel way but we always kill them. I hate sharks with all my hart and all my body but if I think to be a shark I understand their istinct. in a way we are much more cruel than sharks, we throw away food and we pollute so much nature that many animals die only for our pollution.
In conclusion sharks are mean and cruel but we should think how cruel we are towards sharks and all of the animals. Sharks are surely the animal I hate the most but we need to understand that this is their istinct. 157

Art Block Entry

This year in drama we are doing the play of William Shakespeare called "A Mid-summer night Dream." I play the part of Snoute(wall), Cobweb, and light assistant. Snoute is the an actor, the wall, and he is important because he let the two lovers, Pyramus and Thisbe, talk and see eachother. In this play there is, before starting the play, the magic creatures who put a love potion on the eyes on people, trying to get the situation better, but then we discover that they only made the situation worst. The situation is worse because some people get angry that their lovers love another person.
The story finishes with the play, Pyramus and Thisbe. Thisbe dies and Pyramus suicide for her love. I like very much my role in the play because its important and I don't have many lines to memorize. This play will be excellent if everybody will challenge theirselves. 153
