Memoirs of Mr Wones

Wow, it has been a long time since I have posted, mainly because of having so much work in Mr Jones class! ( Lots of Maths! )
The classroom is so much different to Mr Woody's, and especially from Mr Wones!
Does anyone remember Mr Wones? I think we all got a detention that day! Mr Jones thankfully isn't that harsh, but he can be a lot scarier when he wants to!!

globalisation

Globalization

Globalization is a way to be global, worldwide, international, intercontinental.

These include:

copyright laws
An increase in
international trade at a faster rate than the growth in the world economy
Increase in the share of the world economy controlled by
multinational corporations
Development of a
global financial system
Greater international cultural influences, for example through exports of

Reduction in global
cultural diversity
Greater international
travel and tourism
Greater sharing of information, by the spreading of technology such as the
Internet and telephone

My heaven...

'Wssshh...' The waves lazily crash on the golden sand, as I take another sip of my cool, fresh orange juice. I slowly stretch my body out, and dip my legs into the cool water. I dive in, the lovely water surounding me, as I come up for air. The seagulls are calling, the sun shines down. My ocean, my home.I slowly swim over to an island, covered with palm tree's. As I pull myself up from the smooth water, I once again feel the warmth of the golden sand between my toes. I strech out on a hammok, rocking to and fro. I watch the clouds slowly travel across the sky. The sun is dipping further, but my campfire keeps me warm. I toast marshmallows, as I watch the sun set, streaming oranges and purples into the sky to remind me of its glory. Its getting late. I swim back to the main land, and I am greeted by my cat. As she srokes my legs with her head, wanting attention. I approach my cosy house, and am greeted by my family.'Yawn' i am ready for bed. As I settle into my cosy blanket, I hear the sea splashing.
Ahhh... Heaven.

Laughter!

Research has shown health benefits of laughter ranging from strengthening the immune system to reducing food cravings to increasing one's threshold of pain. There's even an emerging therapeutic field known as humor therapy to help people heal more quickly, among other things. Humor also has several important stress relieving benefits.
