If I Could Live Anywhere


   If I could live anywhere I would live just outside the Troposphere. I would live in a floating futuristic house and I would have my car be a little space shuttle so I could fly down to earth.
   One of the reasons I would want to live in space is because of the view. Not only could I see earth, but I could also see the stars, the sun, and with the best telescope ever, I could also see other planets.
   The second reason I would want to live in space is because I would be completely isolated and alone, with no one telling me what to do.
   The third reason for why I would want to live in space is because with my car. I could fly down to earth and get food, gas, really everything I need. Then I would rob a bank and fly back home where they couldn't chase me. That is what I would do for a living.
   The fourth reason to live in space would be, on Halloween I would dress up as Jesus and fly down to earth and look at peoples reaction. Then other Halloween I would dress up as an alien or something.
   Those are the main four reasons I would live in space.


THE END

DO-OVER GENERATION SET TO MEET DEADLINE SHOCK


  Do I agree with this article that states that students should be getting penalized for late assignments?
   I would say yes. The reason is because if children aren't handing assignments in on time then they are going to think that that's okay. Later on in life they don't hand in or complete an assignment that could have an big impact on their business life, and they might get penalized for it. Also if they get an important job like being a  politician, their paperwork better be on time or else other people and other politicians are going to be peeved. Also like it said in the article, kids need discipline and to get into a good university. You need to prove that you can be a good student by showing them work, but if they notice that all the work is late then they may not accept you.
   In the article it says that for the first time since 1999, teachers will be deducting marks for late assignments. That means that before that there wasn't really a penalty for late assignments, and for some children that means that if they aren't deducting marks, then there is no real due date.
   Also in the article it says for the first time, students who miss 20 per cent of class time will now lose a credit. I also believe that this necessary because if student miss class then they will be penalized in stead of a call that they can pick up and pretend that they are their parents. This rule will ensure that their parents are aware that they aren't showing up to school.
   That is why I agree with this article.
