GMO's

GMO's are animals or plants that have been genetically engineered with DNA from bacteria, viruses or other plants and animals. There is also a lot of evidence that connects GMO's with health problems and can cause environmental damage. Monsanto is an agriculture that delivers agriculture products that support all farmers around the world. GMO's also violate farmers and consumers rights. 

I personally think that GMO's are a health concern. Especially when people don't know if their food that they buy contains GMO's. Most people in the world want to know if their food contains GMO's.

Being Charitable

The charity I picked is American Cancer Society. I really like this charity because they help kids and adults who are battling cancer. I feel like this would be a great charity to help, because these kids are so innocent and didn't choose this life for themselves. These kids cannot have a normal life because of the life that was chosen for them.

American Cancer Society also helps adults who have cancer. I think all of the people who have cancer deserve a donation. Every cent counts and can go toward there surgeries or pay for their medicine.

Cancer is a very horrible disease. And its horrific for the person who has it and for their family. Many people who have cancer cannot afford to pay for the expenses and may need help paying for it. It's also very sad, because there isn't really a "cure" for cancer. So if you have cancer you are most likely to always have it unless you are lucky. All in all American Cancer Society is a great charity to help.

My Expertise

 
My Expertise
 
I like to swim because, its a great activity that involves a great workout for your body. I enjoy swimming so much because I love sports that involve water. I really like that it's an independent sport and you don't need a whole team competing at the same time. Even though the whole team works together to try and get the best scores.
 
My favorite stroke in swimming is the backstroke. It was the stroke that I was the best at. Also, when I was on the swim team everyone got along and always cheered for our team members. We also cheered for the other team too. We thought we would be better teammates if we cheered for our team as well as the other team.
 
I think I am an expertise about swimming, because I know how to swim and all the rules about the game. I am a great team member, because I never put anyone down and I always cheered for them no matter what. I love swimming and I enjoyed everything about it.

Typing

I'm an okay typer. My mom can type really fast and when I was younger I would always say that I wanted to type really fast too. In 7th grade i did take a computer class which was really fun and we did cool projects in there and learned where the keys are on the keyboard without looking. I think i have gotten better and i want to improve.

The best thing I did this Summer

The best thing i did this summer was go to the river with my family and my friends. My family has seadoos and a boat so we love to go to the river. When we go everyone just relaxes the whole time and we just do fun things. It feels like were getting away from the real world. Every time i go there its 120 degrees so i stay in the water all day. I love riding on the water on our boat with everyone because it gets so fun and crazy!

This summer was definitely the most fun I've had all year. There's also a bunch of cliff's that we jumped off. It's something that i love because at first its kind of scary before you jump, but when you land in the water you want to keep jumping. All in all, the best thing i did this summer was go to the river with my family and friends.
