Wonders of the World

Hello folks,

I did one exam today! Now I only have three left! Tomorrow I have two. Oh well I will be that much closer to being done. I just decided that I am not going on facebook or twitter until tomorrow after my exams. I want to see how long that lasts. If I know myself, which I think I do, it won't be every long.

Now for the 10 awesome things of the day.

1. Petra
2. Easter Island Statues
3. Taj Mahal
4. Stonehenge
5. Eiffel Tower (Which I have seen! That makes it so much better!)
6. Acropolis
7. Colosseum (I have touched it! Once again, making it more awesome!)
8. Machu Picchu
9. Pyramids of Giza
10. Angkor

Today's list was much easier than yesterdays. I bet tomorrow it will hard again. Oh well. I will deal with that tomorrow. If you don't  know what those places are look them up. They are all considered The Seven Wonders of the World. Some are debatable, they are my 10 wonders of the world.  This is a bad idea, getting me thinking about travelling when I have to study!

There are many wonders of the world that I would like to see.  I think that the seven natural wonders are beautiful, like the Aurora Borealis. I love seeing it! The last time I saw the Northern Lights was last summer. I was in my room, when my step brother comes running into my room, "Come look!!" So we went upstairs and sat on the deck and watched them. I have never been in a crappy mood when I see them. They always make me happy and they make me think of good memories.

Last weeks question was "What should happen with exams?" 55% said that exams should have exemptions, which I agree with.  A mixture of no exams, exemptions and exams for all your classes was second with 44%. It was a close one this week, just one vote would have made it a tie! So to stay on todays topic, the new poll is which of my ten world wonders do you want to see?

NEWS:

In the news today, Italy has stated that they will be taking military action in Libya. Italy's PM  Silvio Berlusconi approved the use of Italian air force in NATO's Libya mission.

Syria's army has advanced into the city of Deraa. Witnesses said security forces opened fire in a suburb. Human rights campaigner said President Bashar al-Assad has launched "savage war" on the protesters.  The US has frozen assets and banned business dealings with Syria.

I was lazy today with the news, as I am sure you all hate. I am off to study. I will chat chit with you guys later. Yes, I stole that line from Dane Cook.
