one

One second you saw it, the next you didn’t. She wanted to turn around and leave this strange place, but curiosity got the better of her. The fog seemed to be alive. It danced amongst the trees: smothered, slithered, sneaked in and out of the branches. The trees lining the road, sentinels of the night, seemed to sway in the breeze, their branches reaching up like tentacles clawing for the sky, yearning to escape the cloying fog. One second you saw it, the next you didn’t. The ghostly shadow vanished once again into the mist. Lenore Voldemort had come too far to turn back now. Goosebumps prickled on her cold, clammy skin, and she was sure she could hear her heart thumping inside her chest like a fluttering bird begging to be let out of its cage. Pulling her scarf tightly around herself, she stepped forward into the woods, towards the place where the shadow had been. She didn’t know why? Or what she could do if it came closer but in desperation, she didn’t really care. She was getting hotter the deeper she went in sweat began to drip from her long black hair. She couldn’t find the way to the start even if she tried the mist was to thick to see anything. Lenore’s hair was an issue to work with it made herself heavier and made it harder to walk let alone run then a snap on the ground right next to Lenore’s feet had happened she looked to her right to see the dark black shadow running towards her at a raped speed she runs as fast as she could but something pulled against her hair she couldn’t run she was stuck. Lenore looked behind her she was terrified a stick was tangled in her hair and the stick was attached to a giant tree. The shadow was getting closer Lenore pulled and tugged but nothing worked the shadow was only a few feet away and Lenore just admitted defeat she closed her eyes and felt as… nothing the shadow ran straight past her and vanished in the mist she was once again alone and stuck Lenore did not hesitate as she pulled a piece of sharp glass from her pocket and cut all of her hair. Lenore’s hair was now, stubby short rough hair. Lenore Voldemort kept running towards where she saw the shadow going. She still didn’t know why she kept running towards the shadow it looked like a deadly ghost ready to strike any living thing to the ground but Lenore felt like it was pulling her towards it she may have been in a trance or mind-controlled but the fact her goosebumps had vanished said otherwise. Lenore kept running across the muddy track and looked as though she didn’t feel a thing every time something strange from the mud stabbed her bare feet. Lenore didn’t even pay attention to the giant slash on her face from a rose bush or the countless amounts of scrapes and scratches on her legs from infinite amounts of barbed wire it seemed her mind didn’t have time to fell pain all it had time for was getting closer to the ghostly shadow. Lenore kept running although the pain was getting to her head. With each step, it felt like a leap across a hole filled with the end but her mind kept making her move, Lenore couldn’t even think about how this could all be a wild goose chase or a race to desist but she continued to run no matter how much it hurts or stang or ma… Lenore stopped something was behind her and she was afraid to look she didn’t move a muscle, but it was hard for her head was no longer focused on getting to the shadow or even getting away from it Lenore’s brain was focused on the giant slash on her face, the countless amount of scratches and scaps on her legs and the icy breathing on her neck but before Lenore could do anything she fell hard on the muddy track she couldn’t bear the pain anymore and feel into a deep sleep. Lenore woke up she saw grey trees just like the one the muddy track and thick mist all around her she tried to get up off the ground but she couldn’t her feet were stuck they where chained down to the mud she tried to get out of them by hitting them with her hands and pulling them with her feet but they didn’t budge they never did.

speech

WALT: In term three we all had to do a speech this is mine.

Artificial intelligence/AI is a machine with a mind of its own. A kinda robot-like thing hiding in your everyday technology products, I put that wrong let me restart. From google searching to self-driving cars AI is all around us. 

But what if AI starts developing feelings, what if it thinks us humans are the problem I’m Anika and this is why AI is a positive look to our future.

If we have AI everything will be done fast. Incredibly fast, large portions of people have had a huge weight taken off their shoulders to the thanks of AI it has made their jobs, much more manageable, and as much as that's good AIs biggest benefit is that machines do not need breaks or sleep and they don't need to be paid so it will be going constantly.

 AI can be doing the same task over and over without growing bored. This is great because most people can not spend a minute without talking to someone. Don't get me wrong talkings great I'm doing it right now but it puts you off your work with AI it can do all the work well you're just chatting with your friends. That would be nice now, wouldn't it?

Imagine waking up to a plate of pancakes with all your favourite toppings, or, the best piece of toast in the world. With AI this would be possible. AI would be able to do a lot of things for you, I mean look at Tony Stark his AI systems can do everything for him, make him breakfast, dinner smoothies, get him champagne and even check his blood pressure, this brings me to my next point.

Artificial intelligence could open up many doors one of those doors being AI health systems, These systems could save lives or help people with hearing problems. When someone has hearing aids it catches all sounds which might seem like a good thing but it isn't.

 If someone with hearing aids is talking to someone and a tv or radio is on they will hear both of them at the same time, but if somebody with good hearing is in the same situation their brain will tell their ears to listen to the conversation and not focus on tv, this makes it very hard for people with hearing aids to hear people properly even with their hearing aids. 

With an AI system, this can be solved, an AI system would be able to tell if the person wearing the hearing aids are talking, listening, watching or something else, And would make it so they could hear what they actually wanted to, but that is not where it ends. AI could also be a huge use when in hospitals. 

When someone is in a critical state they are usually on life support, and even though doctors or family are there most of the time when they leave and the only person in the room is the patient.

 what would happen if something goes wrong if the life support stop working or something else happens and the patient struggling to stay alive the systems that we have now will alert the doctors and they will rush to the room but what if they don't make it in time, this is a possibility with AI. This possibility will be reduced to a 1 out of 100 chance as AI could alert the doctors, figure out the problem and fix the problem. This would not be taking the doctors time as the AI systems would not have to be used if not very necessary.

AI is one of the best creations ever. Where would you be if AI didn't sort your spam mail and if you didn't have google maps directing you to your destination? I've been Anika and that was why AI is a positive look to our future.

Baseball

A boy in our class from America called Landon was leaving and going back to America so we decided to play his favourite game baseball.

we had 2 games of baseball on different days. On the first day I got out first time because I didn't know how to play but on my second try, I managed to get to the second base.

On the second day I got a home run and got someone out by tagging them and I also got to third base om my second go.
