Snowboarding

Authors Note: needed to finish this for one of my tasks also I thought it would be interesting to write this with ski club and stuff.

You are at the top of a hill with the sun reflecting off the new layer of snow. While strapping in your boot you plan out the rout to follow. When you are finished you stand up with your board parallel to the bottom of the hill. You jump and twist so you start down the hill. While you go down the hill you notice that you are rapidly gaining speed so you simply turn 90 degrees and lead back (to slow down). As you continue down the hill you slow down again you catch a bump of snow and you fly forward. You tumble down the hill and slide to the bottom.

When you get back to the top of the hill you move downward again but you are being careful not to fall. You avoid the area were you fell down before and then speed down the hill just to see how fast you can go. As you are speeding down the hill the sun is setting and many vibrant colors are filling the sky.You noticed something you didn't before... A Ramp.

There is not enough time to turn so you fly up in the air. Everything slows down. Your heart races. As you hit the ground you balance yourself.

You made it! You feel a sense of accomplishment come over you. When you get to the bottom you jump with joy and shout.

The next times you go down you feel like nothing can stop you-you are invincible. You go into the lodge to tell your friends. You didn't see them. You checked the time and noticed that the bus leaves in 5 minuets! You ran to the locker area, took of your snow stuff and ran to the bus. You have just made it. When you got on the bus you sit next to your friend and tell them your story. You will never forget this day.

Stars and Galaxies

Author's Note: I wrote this essay because because I am thinking about doing my next project on Stars and Galaxies.


Stars have been a mystery for ages until now. The growing technology has aloud us to take a closer look at them. Galaxies and stars are very interesting things. There are a few different types of galaxies.

Stars are balls of hydrogen and helium. There are millions of them on our solar system alone. The sun is about 7,500 degrees fairinhight. In old times people thought heroes where turned into constellations after they died. There are also constellations that represent zodiac signs. For example, I am a "Pisces"(the fish)( I hope to do a project on Zodiac Signs). As I said earlier there are millions of stars in our galaxy alone.

Galaxies are a big group of stars, planets, and space dust. In our milky-way galaxy there are 8 planets and the sun. Another galaxy is the Andromeda Galaxy. It is over 2.4 million light-years away from us. there are 3 types of galaxies Elliptical, Spiral, and Irregular. Elliptical are shaped like balls or footballs they also have no axis of rotation. Spiral galaxies have three parts. A bulge, disk, and halo. The bulge is the center. The disk is made of gas and dust. And finally the halo is a loose structure around the bulge. Now lastly Irregular galaxies. They have no structure. They also have so much dust that the dust blocks the light from the stars.

Galaxies and stars are very interesting things and we know very much about them.We hope to learn more and be able to study them closer.
