So far in my holiday i have been to langkawi with my aunt and uncle. in langkawi there was some amazing sun sets and fish. the seafood in langkawi was awesome. but the only bad thing that happened in langkawi was that i was riding on a motorcycle with my dad. then there was an accident we were hit by a van! my dad was way more injured then me, and i only have about 5 cuts and scars. but i have a sprained wrist.

Why Civilizations Have Laws
i think that civilizations have laws to keep everyone safe. I thinks its that because if there was not a law that you could not kill someone. then imagine how much the population would go down. Also if there wasn't the law that you can not speed drive. then also imagine how many people would have died from car accidents. But i think that the Hammurabi's laws were a bit to harsh. one because the of the law "if your son hits you, you can cuts off his arm" now i think that is too harsh because the son might have been defending himself. so the farther is the one to blame. also if th farther was harming his son shouldn't the farther have his arm cut off? anyway theHammurabi's laws are too harsh!

Connections, Challenges, Extends Part 2(New Version)
i choose this title for this activity because today in class we had to find our connections, challenges and the extends from the movie. then we were partnered up with someone to discuss what we had and why we choose our connections, challenges and extends.
my favorite extends (question) was "if a middle east person met up with our humans in the middle east would they be just like any other middle east people, or would they be like early humans" this is my favorite question because it could start a whole discussion about what could happen in that situation.
But some people like my partner had me really thinking about the connection. her connection was "I new that some people had already domesticated animals" i thought this one was really cool because i had never really thought of that connection. so we ended up sharing that connection in the class discussion. then after some other people agreed that they did not think of that one as well. they also had other connection that i had also never thought of.
also in the class discussion someone brought up the challenge "in the Middle East they spread trade along latitude because the sun shines on the same latitude. but Papa New Guinea could not trade on latitude or on longitude because its a island." i think that was cool because that is why the MIddle East thrived and Papa New Guinea could not because they could not trade.
anyway i think this was a cool discussion in class because near the end of class we started the discussion with the whole class.

"Civilization from the past and now"
i thought the movie was interesting on how they compared how the middle east thrived more successfully then Papa New Guinea. the movie was also comparing which farm animal in the best. the best as if you can eat it, you can ride it and it can move other stuff. but in Papa New Guinea they used a pig which was not very successful. and in the middle eats they had a lot more animals to chose from other countries around them. also to be a hunter in Papa New Guinea you would have to be strong smart and fast. where in the middle east they did not hunt as much the preferred to farm crops. in total i thought i had learnt a lot from the movie.

early man vs KL man
Early Man had to do a lot more than KL because Kl can just get meat from a store, and early man had to hunt for meat. We can just get water in a bottle at the store and early man had to dig a hole in the ground or go to a river to get water. we have almost destroyed the earth (NOt really) and not helped the earth. But early man made no difference to the earth. we have a lot more tools than early man had. yet they where more successful then us. For shelter we had more bigger and better shelters. but they where more creative in shelters than us.

What Makes Kuala Lumper a civilization?
I think of Kuala Lumper as a civilization because of all the culture in it. Such as the language and the craft that they have. even the the Petronas Towers could be part of Malaysia, its part of their architecture. also the little kampongs its also architecture. Their roti chani is malaysian because of its culture and its food. Their are many more but most of it would go under culture.

What the SPCA is and What to do to Help
The SPCA is where dogs, cats and other pets are sent because they have been abused or neglected by their owner. some of the abuse has been cut off tails, noses and even mouths. but most of the incidents are caused by kids by throwing rocks. But the SPCA is also where you can adopt a pet for a really good price. although you can help by bringing in supplies for pets mainly anything that can be used for pets. And they also need more pets adopted.

call it courage
i think call it courage was a adventure book, which are my favorite type of book. but it didnt really grab my attention through out the whole book. but my favorite part of the book was when mafatu first started exploring the island and going to the plateau.
