What Colors Are You?

writing prompts: Photo

In this color wheel I would describe myself as a field of carnation, lavender and lemon colored flowers with honeydew grass and a sky blue above. Carnation because I like to be original, poetry, and to know about myself. Lavender because I like music, magic and to dream big. Lemon because I like to look on the bright side as much as possible, to know about things even if it doesn't matter, and I like to freely express myself. Honeydew because I like to learn, be independent and to see meaning in everything. Finally, Sky because I like serenity, to understand things and people, and to be calm.

Everyone is a Millionaire

In Norway, Everyone Is A (Paper) Millionaire - Kids News Article

All Norwegians became millionaires because in 1969 they struck oil and they also export natural gas. But instead of wasting the money, the government decided to save the surplus wealth into a sovereign fund. The pension fund was established to make sure their future residents are secure. The author calls the residents "paper" millionaires because they don't actually have the money, the government has the money. I think our country doesn't have such a fund because our country is so far in debt that any extra money should go to pay back the debt.

Insane Water Slide

Kansas City's Verrückt Water Slide Is Insane (Literally)! - Kids News Article

Verrückt is and estimated 17-story tall water slide that is being built in Kansas City, Missouri. This water slide is being compared to Brazil's Insano because the company is saying that Verrückt is nearly 3 stories taller. The company is also comparing to Insano because they can confirm that Verrückt is faster than Insano's 65mph water slide. The co-owner Jeff is known as the "Wizard of Water". This is because not only did he help design Verrückt he also helped create some of the Water Park's other strange rides like the inland water surfing, uphill water coasters and endless tube rides. If given the chance, I would like to go on this ride because I want to say that I went down Verrückt. But if I was thinking logically, then I would not go down because I am afraid of heights. Although I might not ride it, I think it'll be a huge thrill for risk takers.
