A camping incident!
One day, my family and I went camping in the forest. At night, we stepped inside the tent to sleep. Suddenly, I heard a strange sound. I went out of the tent and I saw a fox. It got scared and left. In the morning, we went to the lake but my sister saw a strange fish and we went out quickly. I asked my sister what has happened. She told us that she had seen a strange fish camping and it had better her leg. Her leg started to swell. My parents had a first-aid kit and reacted quickly. We started packing our things to go back home. I wish we would never go there again!

An unusual friend!
It was a lovely spring day. My mother wool up early and she told me we were going to take a walk in the woods. We went to the woods and I heard a sound but I didn’t. know what it was. My mother didn’t hear this sound. As we were walking, the sound got louder. In a few minutes, I found out where the sound was coming from. It was made by a tree I was scared when I saw the tree but I didn’t leave. The tree was crying. I realised that the tree didn’t have friends to play with. In order for the tree to feel better, I told it that I will come to play every Saturday. The tree was very happy to hear this and agreed. From that day, every Saturday I went into the wood to play with my new friend!

Magic lego!
Last night, an amazing thing happened. I was building a huge portal from lego. Suddenly, I saw something glowing inside and I went through the lego portal. It was a magic portal and I saw people from lego in a lego city. Just at that moment, the magic portal closed. I was very scared because I wanted my family. I found a lego boy and he took me to his family. His father looked at me in a strange way because I was a human. His father took me to see an old man. The old man took his magic wand and made another magic portal. I was very happy because I would go back to my house through this magic portal. When a came out I was in my bedroom again and so relieved this adventure was over. I destroyed the magic portal and never build one again!

Dragon tales (part 9)THE LERNAEAN HYDRA
The Hydra of the lake Lerna is the most known dragon in Greek mythology. According to the myth, Hydra had the body of a huge snake and nine heads. For every head chopped off, Hydra could regrow two other heads. So it was impossible to be defeated. That beast was killed by Hercules with the help of his nephew Iolaus. So first Hercules cut off one head, using the sword that Athena had given to him. Then Iolaus burn the neck with fire, and that way the new heads couldn’t be regrown. Hercules cut off all the heads of Hydra. He placed the last, central head which was immortal under a big rock and dipped his arrows in Hydra’s poisonous blood. The goddess Hera who hated Hercules, placed Hydra in the sky as a constellation.

Sometimes people believed that dragons were useful and protective and other times they believed that dragons were very dangerous creatures. Old Christians believed that dragons represented Satan.
There were many different kinds of dragons, with different colours and scaly skin. Some dragons had wings and could fly. Some others didn’t have wings. They were called warms and they lived in the water (in the sea, lakes or big rivers). Some dragons could speak or breathe fire. Some dragons lived in a palace under the ocean and some others could be found in caves. All of them liked gold and priceless stones. So people believed that every dragon had a treasure. The dragon’s blood was poisoned and someone who battled a dragon could be killed even in that way, by the beast’s blood. Also, people believed that a fearless army of warriors with swords and shields could be created from the dragon teeth if they got seed in the ground.

Everything has changed
“Nothing’s different but everything has changed” as Charles de Rint said. In my view, nowadays our society has changed dramatically most because of technology.
Firstly, now we use technology instead of books. For instance, when we search for information we prefer it on the internet.
Secondly, with the use of technology, we neglect the people that we care about. For example, when we go out with someone we usually spend our time on our phones instead of communicating with other people.
In conclusion, I wish we could be more independent of everything that technology offers to us.
