What Mountain is the Highest?

What Mountain is the Highest?

      Ever wonder what mountain is the highest in the world? You may already know, but there are some things you might not. You might know the highest mountain in the world is Mount Everest, but you might not know it is about 5.5 miles above sea level! In feet that is exactly 29,035. Also, that extraordinary mountain is called, "The Goddess of the Sky" in Nepal. Many people don't know that Mount Everest's temperature can get to about -80 degrees Fahrenheit. That's some cold weather, don't you think? The people of Nepal are like guides to others who try to climb this phenomenal mountain. You may think you know a lot about this unique mountain, but there is a lot more to learn. For more information keep reading!

                         My Opinions

      I feel Mount Everest is fascinating! The mountain peeks surrounded by soft, thin snow is just amazing. Although it looks so soft and pleasant, people who climb the beast know it is not. When you get higher up the mountain it gets cold and the air gets thinner. These conditions make it hard to breathe and very hard to even stay alive without proper equipment. I feel the view of the magnificent mountain is great, but when you go up there it won't feel to great. Mount Everest looks very nice, but clearly doesn't like visitors.

Michael Jackson The King of Pop

Michael Jackson

The King of Pop was not completely what he seems. Michael was the 7th of 9 kids. he was born August 29, 1958. When he was 11 he performed with the Jackson 5 on television. Michael and his sister Janet made about 7 million dollars with there hit the "Scream". The family band was originally the Jackson Brothers  then turned into the Jackson 5. He was married to Lisa Marie Presley and then Debbie Rowe and had 3 children. Michael loved The Three Stooges. Also he his middle name was Joesph. Oddly enough Michael was very fond of Mexican food!

Unique Sayings of Michael Jackson

     Michael was a very famous singer making his "sayings" or quotes very special. For example he used to say, " People write negative things, cause they feel that's what sells. Good news to them, doesn't sell." This is a quote many people may not like but is true, in my opinion. Michael like all other famous legends had more than one quote. Another one is, " I'm just like anyone. I cut and I bleed. And I embarrass easily."  I feel this is an important quote, because people always try to separate each other when everyone is really the same. Michael also used to say, " The greatest education in the world is watching the masters at work." Some may think these quotes don't mean anything, and some people may think it is the best saying they ever heard, but which ever you are, there is no problem in reading them.  http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/authors/m/michael_jackson.html


Michael Jackson

 Michael was an idol to many you singers of his age. Kids looked up to him, because of his success, in singing and dancing. His accomplishments affected more than just kids, they changed the lives of everyone. I feel Michael is really the KING of pop, because he really achieved many things in his life. He won the most Grammys in one night! Michael won 8 Grammys that special night. I feel it is unbelievable how many hits Michael had in his life time. His accomplishments made children want to learn to sing and dance too. Michael Jackson is a true legend, and will always be remembered.

What is up With Duct tape?



Duct Tape Designs?

Of course! Duct tape, or the official company Duck duct tape, has made great progress with their idea of designing duct tape. These thin colored duct tapes are used to make wallets, pencil cases, rings, flowers, backpacks, and even dresses! The thick roles aren't cheap though. At Walmart one roll can cost up to 3-5 dollars. At Home Depot it costs exactly $3.57! It is not the cheapest thing in the world but it sold very fast! Many people decided to do YouTube videos on how to make duct tape creations. To watch a video on how to make a duct tape flower pen go to the link below.

My Opinions

Personally, I love duct tape! I use it all the time, but not just for designing. It is nice to have some extra duct tape around the house, because if you ever need it you can just use your designing one until you get normal duck tape. Also most of my duct tape creations are very useful. For example I made a pencil case which is useful in school. Also I made a phone case which is great to! I would say my most needed creation is my wallet. They are very nice and easy to use, and they don't slip out of your pocket or hand. Duct tape is very useful and looks great, in my opinion.


Got Questions?

Wonder how all this started? If you do, wait till next week for my next blog about, "Who Invented Duct Tape?" Have any blog suggestions? Let me know and I will do them! If you have duct tape why not try to make something new today! Comment if you do have any questions or concerns!
