Connections

I chose this picture because like in the YouTube clip it is showing happiness. If you look carefully you might make out a face and it is smiling. There are many other happiness pictures but this is the best because you have to try and make out what it is you don't just see it. Like happiness, it does not just appear you have to make it up and then it becomes clear.

I think this man is trying to show that everyone likes to be seen and heard so he goes around the world dancing and he is letting other people be seen in it. Matt talks about Tribes and every thing you do your tribe crows because it takes a lot of people to make something happen not just one person does one thing. He is also trying to make people happy by doing a funny dance so he is spreading happiness.

Complimet Guy

I think what those two guys are doing is really cool and nice. I think this because everyone loves to get a compliment about something they do whether it be what they wear or what they are doing. Those guys are right there are a bunch of gloomy people out there( not everyone) but everyone has a soft spot and if someone compliments you, you might become more happy of what they do.

I chose this image to represent my post because it shows free compliments just like the two guys were doing out on the street. There sign said " FREE COMPLIMENTS" So this I think is a good picture to represent the post.

My Name

I chose this Picture to represent my name because it shows confusion. Like my name. Where ever I travel people don't always say my name right or make fun of it and then get confused of why my name is that so I think this is the best image to represent my name.

My name means lover of hounds. It is Irish. I like my name because it is right for me. I think this because I love animals especially dogs. I have always loved dogs my whole life. When I was little I used to go to my cousins house a lot and I would just lie down with my best friend tome the dog every day and watch T.V. The only problem was that they lived in Malaysia and I lived in Australia so I did not see Tome much. But after eight years of my life my family and I moved to Malaysia and I lived at my cousins house for one month.

I was named mostly by my mum and my dad agreed to the name Conor. That's right Conor is my name Not Conner or Connor just Conor nice, short, unique and straight to the point. Well I think it is unique I don't think I know anyone with the same spelling as me. So I'm lucky. It was hard choosing my name though my mum also liked other names like Joseph but there were already too many in her family so it was Conor. She liked it because it was Irish and my mum is Irsih and my dad is Chinese so I have a Chinese last name and an Irish first name.

Some of my friends use to tease me, because I like soccer. They used to say "Conor take your kick." As in "corner kick" and I did not like it. I got really annoyed. But it was OK after a while it got old and not funny. that was in Australia. When I moved to Malaysia some of my friends could not say my name correctly because of their accent so they would call me "Corner" but I understand why and it did not feel like teasing. Conor Irish a lover of hounds short, sharp and straight to the point like me.

“The road of life twists and not the destination.”

“The road of life twists and turns and no two directions are ever the same. Yet our lessons come from the journey, not the destination.” I chose this Quote (By: Don Williams, Jr.)
because I think it tells a lot about a journeys within and physical journeys. This shows how in your life there are two choices to take if witch ever one you take you will can never go back on it. So your life is up to you too decide and if you make the wrong decisions then you have to suffer it.

Save the Earth

Everyone can help save the earth. There are many ways to do it though. Like the three r's... reuse, reduce, recycle. There is also don't buy anything you don't need or buy a environmental product like bio-degradable shampoo. I am going to tell you a few paragraphs about how I help save the world. You can also follow and do these things as well.

Reuse:
Reuse means that if you have a bottle of water instead of buying anther water bottle just go refill it and it will save you money and help the world a bit. Reuse also means (if you have not noticed yet) that you need to use things more than once or else your just wasting what you bought unless you now you will keep it. You can also reuse stuff by making things out of it. Like if you have a cardboard box and your just about to throw it away use your imagination and make something out of it or you could even just put old toys in it.

Reduce:
Reduce means you don't use as much stuff as usual. Similar to the water bottle thing but to reduce plastic bottles altogether you can buy from the shop a water bottle and bring it everywhere with you so you don't have to buy plastic one's. Also it saves the environment because you are not wasting resources. I reduce when I go to P.E every other day, I bring a metal water bottle so that I don't have to waste my money on plastic water bottles and pollute the earth.

Recycle:
Recycling is important because with out it the earth would be almost covered in plastic. To recycle is easy. Just locate a recycling bin. Put your plastic bottles or aluminum cans into it and there you go it will be recycled and you are saving the world one small step at a time. To help save the earth recycle. If you see a plastic bottle or aluminum can on the floor gp put it in the trash and now that you are saving the earth and if you continue to do this with others you can save the world.

Malaysia Week

I just got back from Malaysia Week.( That is when the whole middle school goes out of the school for one week and do activities in the rain forest and on the beach.) I went to a place called Kuala Ghanda. There we went into the forest and camped for one night. At that camp we learned basic survival. The next day we got on a bus and then later we got on a truck to tack us threw the jungle into the next camp. Our truck got stuck so we had to walk 15min to get there. We had to wait until everything arrived then we pitch up our tents and went on a walk when we got back we had dinner and went to bed. The next day we packed up and walked for half and hour and waited for our trucks to arrive. When they did we went to a place and had lunch. We moved to another camping site and stayed there for the night. The next morning we did not need to pack up because we were going to stay there one more night, that day we went to the Elephant Sanctuary. We did some community service by cleaning elephant dung. WE had lunch and swam with the elephants. While swimming with them when I was getting out I chipped my toe on a rock and some of my toe nail and skin fell off. The next day we went to the deer land park and then went home.

PS: I would like to show pictures but I don't have any.
