Most people talk about how other people behave, they can't also see the way they behave. They act as if they aren't naughty but when it is time for work it is CHAOS! They turn really naughty after a break and mostly get into big trouble.

The more naughty you are the more trouble you will get in, like if you kick someone you will get into trouble. When you are in the class sometimes you don't feel so good so that's when you will act all quiet, but when you feel so enthusiastic you just can't wait you get to over exited and then your in trouble.

The reason that this happens is because people don't care about other people because all they want is to get away and be free with there friends, but when they are playing and having fun they are happy, but when they are in trouble they are sad and angry.

Some feelings get hurt when they are embarrased if maybe there on the sad face or asked to stand up in front of everyone. Some might not feel embarrased because they normally have to do it round about every day so there use to it most of the time, so they don't really feel that embarrased.

If you want to stop being naughty just read the instructi0ns below:

1. Ask other good friends how they are good so they can give you some advice.

2.Go to a teacher for advice.

3.Have a chart of how good you are and let your teacher fill it in.

4.When your angry calm down by counting to ten 5 times.(quickly if your going in class!)

5.Try and go to a strict club to teach you how to be good and not naughty, like the army.(Don't really go there, because i don't want to get into trouble!)

IF YOU'VE BEEN NAUGHTY I'D ADVISE YOU TO STOP!, AND READ MY 5 RULES TO STOP BEING NAUGHTY AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT YOU WILL BE AS GOOD AS A SCIENTIST!

I might not know what happened on the other days, but i definately new what happened on the twelfth.We went to The National Theatre to watch Twelfth Night, a play that we have already acted at the drama workshop in the school. I can see where Mr cannon was coming from when he said we have to use different voices for different characters depending on the role that the characters played.Even though we tried to act like the actors and actresses, but they outclass us by a mile.The bit that interest me most in the play was the folly made by Moalvolio by putting on the yellow stockings and cross garters, hoping that Olivia would fall in love with him.He dearly payed for his action even though he was tricked.Can somebody tell me who would like to marry Sir Andrew. His silly habits of drunkeness and laziness would put any woman away. The fool caught my attention too,  he makes me crack up lots of times. Even though he was a fool, he said some facts jokingly.Overall, i really enjoyed myself, and look forward to the next of Shakespeare plays.

The world is changing so fast, considering the jet age we live in today. There are giants steps been taken compared to what it used to be, and the effect will tell on the future of our children. Today, modernisation has influenced our children's life a great deal, and they seem to know too much for their age. The activities that have taken the mind of our children off the essential things that they are suppose to know at this time of their life is going to tell in the future. Our children spend more time on things like MP3 player, ipod, computer games, internet, etc, rather than doing things that will prepare them for a better life in the future. Also, in the past, the family laws of our nation was helpful because children were not exposed to today's technologies, but now that things have changed as a result of advance in technology, there is need for a tighter family law to curb our children of their excesses. If nothing is done to the rate of how modernisation is telling on our children, I can imagine what we expect in years to come. As much as I love what modernisation is doing to the world, at the same time, I think there should be moderation on the things that could ruin the future of our children.

We often go on and on about what will happen today, the next day, another month, year, etc, and I am surprised to see that not so much has been said about the end. Has anyone pondered on the fact that there will be an end to all things, sometime, and someday? We plan out events for years to come but, no preparation is made for the end. Have you ever thought of what will happen at the end of all things? Is there going to be another life after this? Peradventure we shall all emerge again in another world after death, or we have    
all concluded that  it does not matter what happened after this world? The religious book tells us about judgement after the end. We read about heaven and hell, if this is real, have you thought about where its all going to end? Eventhough it seems not to matter now, but I vividly think it is a matter to consider as we deal with the events of life.

I love my experience in the group so far with the trips the workshops and the plays.I enjoy being in the group and what we discuss.When i joined i was shy but not to Eelyn because i already met her!I looked fine but inside i was shy because i haven't really done something like this before.I hope i continue to enjoy my experience in the group and i have met new friends like Alison.My only concern is that we do so many activities in a month and i think we should reduce it to about 2 activities so that we can have time for other private activities.Also bearly anyone is on the blog and bearly writes blog posts and i think we should incourage people to keep on blogging.I find blogging quite fun but a bit to hard to put videos on and when we learn a lot we forget some things.It was good to see teachers but they only write 1 blog posts and they bearly do any work which is unusual because teachers work harder than pupils.I also think that we should all come together to say if wev'e enjoyed the experience so far and what we have liked best in the activities and what we didn't really like so far.From Dunni.

Yesterday me my Mum and Naya went to Dalston Market and the shopping complex to take some photos.We met Maggie and Olivia doing photographs as well and we were surprised to see them.Some of the people let us take pictures of thier stores but some of them were harsh and didn't allow us to take their pictures.We really enjoyed it and i would like to do it again! We hope to go somewhere else on saturday to take more pictures.

On Wednesday 10th Febuary i went to the blogging workshop and it was quite empty.We started to talk about what we have liked so far in this blogging workshop and i said Nation in The National Theatre.We then logged on to our computer and then we went to the blog and we uploaded photos, added invitations to be friends, and to write comments. Then me and Naya started writing messages to each other and we loved it!I would love to go to the blogging workshop again with Eylen and Nic and find out more things that can happen on our blog.Remember keep blogging!
