History Presentation script-The truth of the Columbus

   The Truth of the Christopher Columbus

Rose Lim

  When I say "Columbus" what ideas can you think of? Maybe you could think that Columbus landed in the west indies for the first time, or that he is a respective and great person. However the "truth of Columbus is totally different. He killed and caught Indians, He got Indians for slaves and took things from them. Indians suffered from Columbus. From now on. I'll tell you the unbelievable truth about Christopher Columbus. 

  First of all, who is Christopher Columbus? Well, Columbus is famous for an explorer, setting off to prove the world was round. He landed in the west Indies on 12 October 1492 and became the first European to set foot in the Americans. Most of you will believe these information. You will think that these are true. Most of you will respect and believe Christopher Columbus. However, is it really true?

  Now, let me tell about the first interesting truth about Christopher Columbus. As I mentioned in the introduction, Columbus is known for setting foot in the West Indies first. However, this is not true. Vikings almost certainly reached North America 500 years before him., Furthermore, as I also mentioned earlier, Columbus is known to set off to prove the world was round. However, Columbus wanted only one thing, WEALTH. He and other Spanish people wanted only gold and money. As they wished, they gets many gold from the Indians. 

  Isn't it interesting? The things that you learned was not always right. These were two truth about Christopher Columbus. Then what are the other two truths about Columbus? 

  Next, let me talk about the cruelty about Columbus. This will be the other truths about him. Indians suffered from Columbus. I believe that almost all of you will think that Christopher Columbus is a respective person, who is a great explorer. However, he was totally different from these beliefs. Even we can call him, the Cruel Columbus-C.C.

 Before Columbus came, Indians were living peacefully in their land. They grew their crops, gathered food, and helped each others. However, when Columbus came the Indians' lives got harder

  To begin with, Columbus took Indians for slaves. When Columbus went back home, He took about 20 Indians. In 1495, 500 Indians were sent to spain to work in there. Half of them died in the journet. The slaves ahd to work for Columbus and other people. They had to grow crops, dif for gold or spin cotton. -continued

Ode to Room 609-Rose Lim

  December 25th, 2011 was the day when I first met you because of GLPS camp. When I saw you for the first time, I was really nervous. When I met you, I was very happy and glad to stay with you for one month! I was sure that we could be a good friend. Now, I'm sure that we are good friends. 2 weeks pasted, which is half of the camp and also it means that  we will say good bye soon. 

  First, I want to thank you. You're giving me and my roommates many things. Because of you, I can study well and concentrate better. Because of you, I can sleep and rest, comfortably. Because of you, I can talk and play with my roommates. Because of you, I can do many things easily in this camp, living with you. Thanks for all these things. You are one of the best friend I've met at the GLPS camp. THANK YOU SO MUCH!~

  However, you might be sad for my roommates and me. We were not responsible to you. We threw things and made you messy. I know you were very sad and angry to us at that time. I know you felt disappointment to my roommates and me. I know we lost trust from you. We were careless to you. I know we had to respect you and do our best to make you happy.

                                     

  I know that I owe you an appology. I want to say "sorry" to you, for my not responsible acts toward you. From now on, I'll try to do my best. From now on, I'll take responsibility and try to make you to smile and be happy again. Our roommates and I will always be responsible. I promise. Will you accept my apology? I hope so!! I'm sure that you'll accept my apology with you generosity. Please accept my apology and watch my acts. I'll try to be different then past days.

  Room 609, you are my best friend. You helped me to participate in camp better. Thank you. From the other 2 weeks, I hope I'll make many other good memories with you. After 2 weeks, I'll go to my home, which is other good friend to me. But! I promise you to come back after 4 years. I'll come back to see you again!!

                                              Your best friend, Rose.

♧Chain Writing♣

Today, I'll introduce my chain writing.

It was a dark stormy night. Three girls were in the KMLA dormitory. They were in the bed trying to go to sleep. They were very tired. They had to go to second period study time. It was very quiet and dark night.

SUDDENLY! The sound came at the door.

One girl slowly walked toward the door, thinking it was a P.A. Then, another girl joined her, a bit scared. P.A.s usually just come in without knocking. When the two girls opened the door, there was nobody standing in the door. When they came back, one girl who was left behind called them

"WHERE ARE YOU! I'M SCARED!!" the two girls said "We are COMING! Nobody was there strange

Let's sleep at one bed. It's little scary!" The other girls agreed and gathered in to one bed. It was little too small,  but at least they were together. And then...... There was a knocking sound at the door again.

But they were too scared to go down and check it. They just trembled on the bed. Then a spooky moaning sound came from the door. Then, there was a scrathing sound too. They were really! scared this time. They looked around. NOBODY AGAIN! Then anothere sound came. One girl started to scream "Aah!! I HEAR IT! IT'S NEAR US! HELP!" But nobody came. Then she screamed again!

"HELP! HELP! SOMETHINGS PULLING ME DOWN! AAH!" Then, she saw a skull face. It was looking straightly toward the girls. Then,    the skull yelled. "Do you remember me? Do you know who I am?" The the skull disapeared. Girls trembled with fears and cried. Later, a white thing, which looked like curtains but almost trasparent moved infront of girls. The girls screamed again. They sticked each other and they couldn't even scream because of fear. They were surrendered by ghosts. Then, the biggest and spookiest ghost came close to the girls. THEN! He took one girl and disapeared. The girls' head was fulled with fears. Then the rest of the ghosts disapeared too. Next day, that KMLA dormitory room was called

THE HAUNTED DORMITORY.

This memory is still in the other two girls.

-The End-

♠My Favorite Book♠

  My favorite book is "The series of Unfortunate Events."
    

  First I'll introduce this book. This book is very sad. To tell the summary of this book, there are three orphans who are Baudelaire siblings. They gets adopted by many peers. However, it didn't go long.  The people who adopt Baudelaire siblings have many terrible things to them. They usually get killed. But what is the reason? First they get adopted by Count Olaf. Count Olaf seems to be nice at the beginning, but he tries to marry Violet, to get fortunes. However it fails and he tries to get fortune from them again and again;. To get the fortune he kills the people who adopts Baudelaire siblings, and tries to get the fortune. However, Baudelaire siblings avoids that terrible things.


  Now, I'll tell the reasons why I like this book. First of all, this book has many details. It describes every situation very clear. As a result, we can imagine the situation very well. Also this book has many interesting situations. When we read we gets excited and go in to the book. This book makes us to read more and more. My favorite book is fantasy or novel. But I think "The Series of Unfortunate Events" is mixed but with these two so it's more interesting than other books.

 Next I'll briefly introduce about the movie. This book is also made by movie.

Second poem

teamwork, cooperation, partnership, collaboration

passing, kicking, scoring

pleased, exciting

soccer

I'm not interested in soccer or basketball, but I suddenly wanted to do it. I don't know why... Anyway, basketball and soccer is both sports. When we play basketball, we jump, throw, and pass the balls. When we play soccer, we also  pass, kick, the ball and score.



third poem



city

complicated, intricated

hurrying, rushing, running

cars, skyscrapers, houses, farms

peaceful, slient, calm

leisurely, quietly

country

City and country is the most general things you can think of. City is complicated and intricated. These two words have similar meanings. Also we hurry, rush and run in cities.

However, in country, it's peaceful, slient, calm. Also it's leisure and quiet.

In my opinion even though country is peaceful, I like city than country. It's more comfortable. 

Three things about me

Welcome to my blog and this time I'm going to introduce three things about me.


1. I like to read books, especially fantasy or novels. I really like Harry Potter and my another favorite book is "The Series of Unfortunate Event." Harry Potter is quite long but it was so fun and exciting that I read the first book in one day. Also "The Series of Unfortunate Event" is quite exciting but it has sad endings.
