Guinea Pigs

What is a Guinea Pig

  Well what do you think it is? Its a type of pet that is like the most adorable thing in the world. I have one and he is so obediant. I know what your thinking. They are not pigs from New Guinea. Larger than hamsters, but smaller than rabbits, guinea pigs can weigh a couple of pounds and generally live for five to seven years. The three most common breeds of guinea pig are the Smooth-Coated, with short, glossy fur; the Abyssinian, whose hair grows in fluffy tufts all over the body, and the Peruvian, with long, silky hair that flows to the ground. I have a short haired guinea pig which I think are the cutest of them all.

My guinea pig... SNIKERZ

As you all know my guinea pig, Snikerz, is a short-haired guinea pig. He is in love with green peppers and can eat a whole in a half and hour. He runs substantially in his cage in the morning when I come downstairs. When he sees me he would start to jump and make noises saying, "Take me! I want you to carry me!" He needs 16 oz every day of water. I have to put hay or grass that he eats, three times a day. Plus I have to change his bedding once a week. Even though he gives me a hard time in my life, I still love him and consider him as a part of my family.

Thanksgiving Mayflower

What is the Mayflower

Well, what do you think the Mayflower was? It was a ship that led pilgrims all the way from England to Cape Cod, Massachusetts. On their journey there were many negative and positive things that happened. People got sick and died from illnesses, some people starved to death, and during a very bad storm, one of the beams cracked causing a discussion of turning back. Something amazing that happened was, a baby named, Oceanus Hopkins, was born on the voyage. Another example of a positive thing that happenend was when the pilgrims finally saw that they had reached Cape, Cod Massachusetts. So basically, the mayflower was a very important piece of wood that led people to success.


What Did the Mayflower Include?
 
     There were many parts to the Mayflower. There were three floors to the ship. An upperdeck, a gun deck, and the cargo hold. Those were three main parts that made the Mayflower what it was. The upperdeck was the place where everyone would really stay and watch. That was where you had to do your buisness as well. The gun deck is where the cannon were located. On merchant ships, this deck was used to hold additional cargo. In the Mayflower's case, the gun deck is where the passengers lived on the voyage to America. The cargo hold was where the Pilgrims would have stored their cargo of food, tools, and supplies during the voyage. Like I said before, the resources would have gone low and people starved to death.

Climbing

What is Climbing?

 

Climbing is simply the activity of using your hands and feet to achieve a steep obstacle such as a wall, boulder, cliff, building, or mountain. Usually done for enjoyment, fun, and sport, climbing allows you to fully experience the great outdoors by giving you a birds eye view from all the way up top from about 500 feet. Giving  you a way to control a couple of your greatest human fears. That of falling and that of heights. Climbing is a risky sport that requires both skill and nervousness for success. Climbing will also help you build your endurance and strength by using all of your muscles and making them work.

My Opinion on This?

I would do it if you had equipment. From my point of view, I think this is one of the most dangerous things to do in the world. Just to make it clear, there is no equipment. It is only you yourself and you. This is actually not only a good idea. It is like commiting suicide. People only do this for fame and money. They risk their lives for it. No one is ever meant to do it.  Once there was a man and he set a world record for climbing the three highest buldings in the world.

The Chinese Water Torture Cell

  What is the Chinese Water Torture?

This is the part that is covering the face. 

Chinese Water torture, is when a person is locked up on to a flat surface where the person trying it out cannot move. Then cold water is slowly dripped one drop at a time (usually 1 drop every 6-14 seconds). It eventually drives the person crazy because they are waiting for the drop each time. Plus they can't use their hands to wipe off the water or warm up their face from the cold water. There are locks tied around their hands, feet, and one on the perimeter on the face so the people would not allowed to move their faces from the ice cold water. so even if they try to move it won't make any difference. Just for a fact, a magician/stuntman named Harry Houdini had actually escaped this torturous stunt, but nobody knows how.

My Opinion on this Stunt

 First of all no and second of all no. Trust me. This is too insane. I have seen how people react to this and they feel like they have had the worst headache ever. This water is below freezing, so imagine getting ice cold water on your forehead every six second for five hours straight. I know I wouldn't want to do that. I would die there and then. So, after reading all this information, would you want to try out the Chinese Water Torture? Leave a comment below if you would want to.
