Drugs

Drugs are the worst thing you can let get into your life, atleast in my opinion. They have bad effects that can harm you and even the people around you. I know some people that have used drugs before and had gotten in trouble for using them. They will mess up your life big time. If you get caught with them, you can go to jail for a long time. Once you are in jail, you won't be able to have any of those drugs. What would you do then? Some people might even have a mental breakdown. They will have to get professional help to kick the addiction. That will be hard for some people to do. In my opinion, it would just be best if everyone stayed away from drugs. People have died from just being around drugs. Anything bad can happen when you get around drugs. People get shot just from going up to the wrong person and asking them if they have any drugs. Also, someone that just had an intake of drugs could drive and run over someone because they don't have complete control of themselves. They don't have complete control of their minds. No one deseves to be killed over something stupid like drugs. Do you know anyone that does drugs? Well, if you do I would yell at them and tell them that something like drugs will kill them. Let me lnow what they have to say. I hope they tell you that they have quit using them or is going to stop using them.

Animal of the Week #6 : Penguins

Do you like penguins? Have you ever seen them? Yes, you can find them in the zoo. I'm talking about in their natural habitat outside of the zoo. Did you know that there are at least 18 different species of penguins? That is intense right?! The pengiun range from the largest living species which is the Emperor Pengin all the way to the smallest penguin species which is the Little Blue Penguin. Penguins can swim over 25 miles per hour because they have such strong legs and arms. Most penguins feed on krill, fish, squid, and other forms of sealife caught while swimming underwater. They spend about half of their life on land and half in the oceans. Since penguins live in the water half of the time they can be endangered by oil spills, water pollution, and over harvesting. Penguins will not cross warm ocean water; therefore, they are all found in nature south of the equator. So, they mainly live in the Artic Ocean. The Galapagos penguin lives the farthest north, near the equator in the cold waters around the islands of the same name.
Penguins are very intersting and cute animals, they have the ability to live on both land and water which I think is pretty awesome.
