HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Today I have the honor of attending a five-year-old’s birthday party! B. is turning five years old!!!
So I bought him a really cool Bob the Builder puzzle, a racing car colouring-in book, and a packet of brightly coloured pencils – I spent ages wrapping it up in silver paper and tied a red ribbon around it, but like most five-year-old’s I know he’ll be most interested in what’s UNDER the paper rather than the paper itself!
On a side note, Mum and Dad Skyped us last night to say hello! They’ve finally met up in London, after Mum’s flight being delayed in Hong Kong for 3 hours!!! So she was absolutely exhausted to say the least! No idea what they’ve been up to today but I expect they’re fast asleep about now. It’s so cool that we can talk to them and see them on Skype – thank God for the internet! Where would we be without it?
I was browsing the internet last night and happened to check out YouTube – I am definitely addicted to YouTube! It’s just amazing, and it’s a great sidetrack for Mr. S in History class! But I heard he got told off for using it so much, so we barely watch it anymore! I do recall however, at the end of a History lesson we ended up watching amazing Domino movies! The ones where they set up MILLIONS of domino pieces and make awesome pictures, then they set them off and it’s really cool to watch. How does this relate to History? Well, we were studying the ‘Domino Theory’ and the threat of communism spreading throughout Asia and I suppose that’s how it relates – totally off topic, I know! But it was a Friday afternoon and it was last period!
So I came across this video which I think is important to share, as it really opened up my eyes and definitely brought on a couple of tears so here it is:
I think this is the sort of video everyone needs to watch at least once, so they can understand the effects and the risks that you take by having unprotected sex. I am not forcing anybody to watch this video, but I recommend that you do.
And a little bit of Dr. Suess for you all:
“Unless someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It’s not.”
