Black Gold: Hair Extensions Are Real?
This article was disturbing but at the same time I was really satisfied because this was wired because a lot of salons in New Zealand specialist in hair extensions and a lot of 2 dollar shop sell wigs so this means that China ships hair over to us.
I think the author wanted to raise awareness for girls like Qingwen Liu's so they can keep their hair because if you were to lose hair for about ever 4 years then do you think that would be quite sad.Because in the article it stated that if China was not selling the hair their shops would be empty and they money would go down every year and because the hair is making so much money for them and maybe the families.I think it would change by no one going to the salon for hair extensions that often as they would if it was a demand. Overall I think that this article was disturbing because I know that Chinese people take hair for dogs but from actual people that really disgusts me. I found it hard to believe that hair extension are actually real hair because some of my family members do wear hair extensions.

Guy Fawkes is celebrated every 5th of November. It is commonly celebrated with fireworks and it is good because you can spend time with your family. Guy Fawkes , also known a Guido Fawkes was born on the 13 of April to the 31st of January. Guy Fawkes is one of the many people that tried to take the life of King James but he was caught before he could light the barrels on fire, he also was caught carrying the explosions and he was immediately arrested.

WALT: Learn things about our human body.
So today we have just com back from a session with Nicole the teacher for the Program.
Today we talked about stress and what is can do to your Whare Tapa Wha. She showed us a video of a girl called Chloe and she told us about the different ways that stress can come upon you and affect you and others around you. I have learned that when you take a number 2 it is brown because all of the dead blood cells, energy drinks contain caffeine so it bad for you and when you drink alcohol it can affect your brain by the way you think and act. 1 question I would like to have asked her is what happen when the brain get socked by alcohol?.

INFORMATION REPORT WRITING PLAN: Famous
INFORMATION REPORT WRITING PLAN:
Famous
Title
|
The Things About Being Famous
|
Introduction:What are the big ideas in this report?
Opening Statement (no more than one sentence)
Brief description about about the key ideas in this report.
|
Hi, My name is Metui and I am going to talk about Fame
|
Paragraph One
|
What is the Benefits About Being Famous
I am going to talk about the benefits of becoming famous. One of the benefits is earning a lot of money for what they do for example being a movie star, a musician and also an athlete. Having the opportunity to tour around the country is also a benefit. Meeting new people along the way is another strength of being famous. Of course there is a lot more but I think this is the benefits that stand out most.
|
Paragraph Two
|
The Downside of being Famous
With being famous there are also downsides like getting a lot of hate from a lot of people who are mean or jealous. Another one is Paperazzi, having photos taken of your everywhere you go is kind of annoying. Just imagine everywhere you go there is flashes in you eyes and people saying “PRESS CAN I TAKE A PHOTO PLEASE”. One thing that I can't stand is the lies about you that goes around about you. This is a reason why social media is bad because the lies that go around can really have a negative effect on people.
|
Paragraph Three
|
What Does is Mean to Be Famous
To be famous you obviously have had to do something to earn the privilege to become famous so this is what it means to be famous. To be famous means that you are known by an abundance of people around the world or country. How ever people can be famous for the wrong reason and maybe that may be the difference between being famous and being a hero . We should all aim to be famous for being our best and never giving up.
|
Diagrams supported with information
| |
Conclusion
|
In conclusion being famous can be a dream but it is the way that you act that can affect your career as you can have a good influence of a bad influence.
