super powers blog

Blog about Super Powers,

You know how super heroes like Superman, Batman and Wonder Woman always have something go wrong when their trying to save the world? Whether it be the villain trying to through something to stop them, or them getting hurt and almost not defeating the problem. There is always something that happens to either slow them down or hurt them. If only, they had the power of going back in time.

Going back in time would be the best power in my opinion because you would always make the right decision. This power would come in really handy on doing tests at school because get the you test back and the mar really sucks, then you could just go back in time and write down the correct answer. Or, if you get into trouble you could just go back in time and not do whatever you did wrong. It would be perfect!

I wouldn’t pick a silly power like super-strength or flying because to be able to go back in time could help so much more. For instance, the earthquake in Haiti right now, if I had the power to go back in time I could’ve gone back and warned the people about what was going to happen and already have life supplies ready. In my opinion this could be one of the most useful powers there is. That’s why if I could pick any power in the world, going back in time would definitely be one of my first picks.

books VS movies




Twightlight, Narnia, Boy in the Striped Pajama's, Harry, Potter, My Sister's Keeper. There are so many book that were made into movies that there are to many to count. All of these books were amazing, but the movies were defianatley not as exciting, detailed the exactley the same.




For example, in the book My Sister's Keeper, the ending is the exact opposite. Or in the Harry Potter Series, before I watched the movie I thought that Harry was this drop dead gorgeous guy who saves Hogwarts year after year. Then, when I watched the movies I was extremely disapointed because Harry was neither attractive or cool. All of these are examples how most of the time books are better than the movies.




Overall in my opinion the books are better because they are more descriptive and detailed. Even though movies are really fun and faster to watch than read a book.
THE END

did you know

In 2013 a computer will be built that exceeds the capabilities of a human brain. It only took 3 years for facebook to reach an audience of 50 million. These are cool facts but what do they mean?

In the "did you know" video the facts were all incredibly scary but at the same time it means that we are advancing in technology and in other aspects which is good and bad at the same time. Bad because many bad things could happen with this new technology like it could create more pollution and make people lazier then they already are. Good because with all of the new things coming out, we can find a way to use these things to solve problems and make a world a better place. In the end, I was glad i got a chance to find out this information because now I know what to expect in the future and what is going on.

"All of the biggest technological inventions created by man- the air-plane, automobile, the computer- says little about his intelligence, but speaks volumes about his laziness."
