Dragons


There are many different types of dragons. I like red and black dragons that can shoot fire!!!! What is your favorite kind?


I tried to paint a dragon... but it was bad. Many say it is a mythical creature such as vampires, mermaids, and unicorns. What do you think?

A nice movie is "How To Train Your Dragon." I saw it. It was cool!

Paintings


Painting is what I like to do for peace. I don't like to meditate or any of that stuff. But, painting takes a lot of concentration. I would like to thank my art teacher Vita. She tells us to fill the paper.

I have just finished a painting of Mona Lisa but with my sister's face on it. I do a lot of vampire paintings because i love what they can do. I will blog about vampires again some
other time. But, next time I will make it longer.

Violin

Violins are stringed musical instruments. There are four strings. Some strings are expensive and some violins are priceless. If you play it correctly, it makes a beautiful sound. I started using a 1/4 size and now I use a full size. It is not easy to play well. It's easier to play piano. The only reason I changed is because piano is boring. The bow is made out of horse hair and wood.
(The picture is my friend's violin that I play with.)

Tobacco



Tobacco is a plant from the colonial times. Dried tobacco is very smelly. Cigars and cigarettes are bad for your teeth, lungs and more. I hope you don't smoke. On the left are cigars and right are cigarettes. There is a difference between cigars and cigarettes. Cigarettes are smaller.

Chalazion

Chalazion is fat stuck in your eyelid. It is not an infection. I had a chalazion once. Here are signs to see if you might have one: lump on the eyelid, eyelid hurts when you touch it, sensitive to light, watery eyes, heavy eyelid.

There are many ways to get rid it. I tried using medicine. But, it did not work. I also put hot rocks and hot hard boiled eggs on it to try and get rid of it. But, that didn't work that well. So, I chose to have surgery. It hurt but I sucked it up. Now my eyelid is fine.

Photo: After surgery they put gauze on my eyelid.

Pokemon is an old TV show. You may have heard of them. There are cute ones and ugly ones. They have games for PSP , PS3, Wii, DS, and many more. Here is a cute Pokemon on the right. The point of the games are to go on a quest and battle, train, and more. They have action figures. I have a lot. They even have Pokemon cards.

Rhinoceros

What do you think when someone says "Rhinoceros"? When I think of rhinoceros, I think of big, strong animals. In the past, there was a rhinoceros called the woolly rhinoceros. They can grow up to six feet tall!!!!!! Their horns can be about three feet tall. In Asia, their horns are used for medicine. There is another kind of rhinoceros from the Ice Age time period called the Teleoceras.

They are vegetarians so they don't want to eat you. But, they are protective of their territory. So if you don't want to be attacked, get out of its range of smell and don't make any noise.
