leaving

Becca slowly made her way down to the subway; she had had a difficult time trying to translate what the ticket assistant was saying while she was making her transaction.
She came down the escalator and let herself submerge into the crowd.
Becca decided she would call a substitute once she crossed between Britain and France, her boss would defiantly ask the subject of her trip, and would think that her submission to take a vacation was transparent non-existent, compared to the work load of files she needed to file, even if the vacation was only going to be transitory.
Becca was a doctor, the type that gives injections to transfuse blood into the veins of sick people.
Becca put these thoughts behind her as she new that her subordinate would handle things, and if he didn’t the subsequent would be disastrous.
This brought he thoughts came back as she realized what she was doing was very subversive, but she felt she had to transgress.
Maybe when she crossed the transverse line, she would also ask to transpose to somewhere new maybe that’s what she needed a new setting, she could permanently transmigrate to France, as well as this Becca decided to get a transfigure change herself completely.
Becca looked up and around the subway; it was subdivided into 4 parts each for a different direction (north, south, west, and east).
A transmission came across the screen the transmit said hat Becca’s train was next to leave.
Becca’s train pulled away from the station with transient, Becca promised herself
to be submissive if she felt the need to sleep, this is exactly what she did.

Rotorua

Yesterday I got back from Rotorua; I went there with my netball team to play in a tournament we won five games out of eight; the school also took the girls and boys basket ball teams.
In the mornings it was freezing and the same during the night, but in the day it was boiling. On Friday morning the first morning we were there the netballers had to prepare the food ( it was freezing) and the night before when Eve set her alarm to wake us up, ( It was for 6:15) the tune she set for us to wake to was mission impossible.
On Friday we played three games and won all but one, the team we lost to was Keri Keri.
On Saturday we played four games and lost to the tridents.
And on Sunday we played one team and lost they were new Plymouth girls high.
Overall I feel our team did fairly well and will make a strong team.

the nitrogen cycle

I am nitrogen and this is my story about going round the nitrogen cycle.
It all started when I was in this plant and all of a sudden I was ripped up and eaten, and I had to start my life all over again in the animal that just destroyed my home.
Just as I set up the poor creature dropped dead and as my mates bacteria and algae started to decompose it I slipped down into the ground where I was fixed by bacteria to be used by plants. Once this happened I waited patiently to be sucked up into another plant where I’ll stay in till the cycle starts again.

8 key facts about Nitrogen.

  1. Nitrogen makes up 80% of the earths atmosphere.
  2. Animals get there Nitrogen from plants the only animal able to fix Nitrogen is man.
  3. Nitrogen is one of the four main elements of life.
  4. No living cell can exists without Nitrogen.
  5. To complete the cycle bacteria in the soil carry out a process knowen as denifritication which converts nitrates back into nitrogen gas.
  6. Nitrogen in the air becomes apart of biological matter mostly through the actions of bacteria and alge in a process known as nitrogen fixation.
  7. Nitrogen will only react with oxgen in the presense of high temperates and pressures found near lightng bolts nitric oxide NO, and nitrogen dixocide NO2, are formed under these conditons.
  8. Eventually Nirogen dixocide may react with water in rain to form Niric acid HNO3 this is used by plants as nutriants.

How to buy a car (today)

Hi I’m Billy T James and after some freaky flash of light, I have come back from the dead and landed in some strange futuristic world, and I’ve noticed some flash cars zooming around here, so I’m going to get up of some of my old tricks, and show you fellows how to get a car for cheaper than what it is.
First things first we’ve gottta find a car sale yard and the car you want, swap the sign with the price for a cheaper car. Hang on a sec the price is a sticker, ok the first step does matter; let’s move straight on to step number two. Finding the right car sales men, and there seems to be no one, we’ll just pick this guy here.
“Oi there I wanna buy this car but there’s a leak can I get a discount for it.
“I assure you sir all our cars are in top condition and there is no need to discount them”.
“Well I just won’t buy it then”“You do that sir”
“These future heads are really hard cases to crack, im sure they haven’t heard the three easy steps on how to speak Chinese.

Retelling of Billy T James.
