Lake Hawea 3 Seasons

Winter


A snowy chilled ice covered lake much like the antarctic. White and light blue frosty lake and a frozen winter smell. White fluffy snow all around it feels like people are setting up for Christmas. The quite and calm steady chirps of the bluebirds, bellbirds and cascades singing to their own melodies. The quiet brushing sound of the oak and birch trees, as they are shimmering in the soft wintry wind. It’s the middle of winter and the snow has fallen the people are tramping through the cold and fluffy snowy forest. There are others ice skating on the frozen lake. But one person, ice skating the fastest, that person was going up and down the lake like they were a jet plane flying through the air. That person was speeding nearly as fast as the cars just beside them driving on the highway. I was just watching as all of nature took its course, through nature in the winter like as if I had seen it for the first time.


Spring


A slow and smooth lake with the trees blooming and bursting with flowers and leaves, spreading all round. Shades of orange, red and yellow glistening on the leaves these bright colours littering the forest. The smells of honey and pollen flying in the air with the feeling of the woodland vegetation blooming as the morning sun rises. That new spring feeling the taste bouncing on the tongue. The light bursting and rising through and the luscious trees and bush sounds much like cars rushing past on the highway. All the birds singing for another season of spring is here. People embracing the new start of spring as it comes upon them. A hare raising its head looking at its surrounding area, scouring for any sort of danger in the area. But the creatures of the forest relish in this new spring and nature taking it at a slow and steady pace.


Summer
It was a blazing hot day. The lake was steaming because of the scorching heat on the chilled still water. Red, yellow and a bright orange sun glowing onto the new lush green grass and trees. I'm breathing through my nose clearly now from the fresh smell of summer. The extremely hot weather heating up my tongue from inside my mouth and the sizzling sun doing the same thing with the depleted looking lake. The few people that are around the lake slip, slop and slapping on their sunscreen, they are slowly sinking into the lake to cool off. The sounds get quieter or am I just getting too far away from the lake. A cow cooling itself down from the scorching heat and the others followed down as they come off from the luscious grass across the field. The summer breeze came by more cows as they strolled and followed the rest of the herd. Getting hotter by the second as time goes by everyone is cooling off. THhe forest animals, the insects all cooling off from the blistering hot sun.

The Milgram Experiment by Saul McLeod practice reading blog

The Milgram Experiment by Saul McLeod 

The Milgram Experiment by Saul McLeod is an article about how far people would go to obey an order and a man called Adolf Eichmann a crazy scientist guy how conducted experiments on other people and people would get ordered to get people or to kill them and bring them to him to rip apart to discover things in the body.

My first opinion I think that a lot of people are born bad and are just plain evil but also the people that are good can do very evil things if ordered to so in a way, everyone will do something bad in their life if they are forced to or because of something else. An example of this is the holocaust with the nazi's and Hitler because he made everyone to believe that Jewish people are evil and needed to be killed and so all the germans believed him and because of that over six million jews were killed.

If I was in the Milgram experiment and was forcefully ordered to go and kill someone I probably would have killed someone if forced to. But I wouldn't have been the only one that would have done it because nearly everyone that was ordered to kill someone actual killed that person to stay alive because if you didn't the authority would kill you and hunt you down if you said no or ran for them because of saying no.

Breaking down a javelin throw

First you have to hold the javelin like you would put a pole straight into the ground.
secondly you hold the javelin back and the tip is near but not too close to your face.
Thirdly when about to run make sure its a smooth run and your perpendicular and the javelin is facing the target.
Fourthly when in the running stage you make sure you turn to your right side and your right feet/legs cross over with your left leg/foot a couple times.
Fifthly you bring the javelin up and nearly throw with a straight arm and aim at a 45 degree angle.
And the sixth step is to make sure you follow through.   Image result for javelin throwImage result for javelin throw
