Final Location

Our final location is the Nile river, It is located in Africa. This location does not have a capital because it is a continent. Some countries that border Africa are Europe and Asia, Also some bodies of water that border Africa are the Red Sea, Indian Ocean, Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. The coordinates for the Nile river is 23˚ 08' 28 20˚ N 29˚ 38' 10. 24˚ E. This continent is mostly desert but some is the tropics. Africa looks like a bigger version of South America. Some history of Africa includes along time ago Africa was connected to a different country. There is no importance of Africa that I found. My last location is 3,700 miles away from the 5th location. We drove to our last location. I could only find the cost for one location to another one so all together it was $800 or so. My trip around the world was just wonderful I learned alot and hope to do it again someday. My family is happy to have me home.

Australia was first spotted by dutch explorers in the 17th century. The reason why this location is important is because it is were kangaroo and other animal life and also home to some pretty cool plants! The Swan River is 5,100 miles away from The Song Hong River. We drove to our 5th location from our 4th. We didn't have any layovers in our travels. It would not tell the price of the trip to my location. I had alot of fun in my travels to all my locations.

Our next location is The Song Hong River aka The Red River. This river is found in Asia. There is no capital of Asia because it is a Country. There is only one country that border Asia it is Russia. Bodies of water that border Asia are the Black sea, the Mediterranean, the Red sea, the Arabian sea & the Persian gulf; the Indian Ocean; the Pacific Ocean, the South China sea, the Yellow sea; the sea of Japan; The Bering straits & the Arctic ocean. The coordinates that border this location are 13° 34' 0" North, 99° 45' 0" East. Asia is home to the hottest and coldest places in earth along with the wettest and driest places. Asia kind of looks like the United States Of America but not exactly. Some history of The Song Hong river aka The red river is that it was built a very long time ago. and that it flows through china and a few other places. This location is important to people in Asia because it is source of water to the people who live there. My second location which is the Amazon River is about 2,500 miles away from The Song Hong River. To get to our 5th location we are going to fly to a big city near then drive to the river. I cannot find the total cost for traveling to my location. There was no compilations in my travels
. I think that the Song Hong River is prettier than the Amazon river and I think that the weather in south america is much better than the weather in asia.

Family/Culture- Now a days there is no comparison to what it was like back then but for family/culture we all still work together and work for money.

Government- There was not a lot of government back then but now we have 3 different forms of government and we have a president and secretaries and all kinds of government.

Event- There are more powerful events now a days then back then. Like the incident with AIG they did`nt even have real homes back then let alone house insurance

My Favorite Genre

Ode To Varicose Veins
By: Molly Cookson

You big bulging vein popping out of my leg.

You always seem to have so much pain

Your legs tend to feel heavy and itch.

Your legs are now starting to discolor

Your pain seems to get worse everyday after you stand in your office.

Your now seem to be getting bluish, knotty lumps on you veins.

You stand so long in your office all day long.

Your mom always had the big bulging veins popping out of her leg.

You should go to the doctor they will preform tests to figure out if you have varicose veins.

You now might have a thrombus ( a clot ) in your vein.

I all of a sudden heard these big loud noises I look out the door and see men on horses fighting! everyone gathered around to see the action. They were running over the hill chasing each other in the evening it was almost dark. I guess people should settle they`re disagreements nicely not so harshly! Then all of a sudden someone yelled STOP! but they could not here him because they nearly ran him over! I sat there in amazement wondering what was going to happen... and then the crowd went silent one of the men had been stabbed with the sword I ran over to see the scene and it was not pretty. A doctor in the crowd ran out to see if the man was alright but called him dead. I felt bad for the man the died. After awhile everyone seemed to vanish so weeping, some crying. no one was happy that day.

We have no major landfroms where we live or also called (geography).

In our country we had a from of government called The Feudal System. One law I don`t agree with is someone who has gone to prison was put to a very bad test they had to pull something out of burning oil and swallow poison! One that I do agree with is tat the prisoner got to choose which judge to see or go to not someone decide for him or her. My family and I are catholic catholic churches were the mostly common church found in Europe in the middle ages. Right now in our country there are no major or serious fights, disputes going on in the government or law.

Memior Final Draft








Early
Bird Shopping










Every
November around Thanksgiving me and a few other girls go down to the
early bird shopping down to Boothbay Harbor, Maine. We wake up at
5:00AM in the morning and we go shopping in our pajamas . If you
wear your pajamas you get a 50% discount. For the last 2 years I
have brought my friend named Mariah. The bad news last year was she
had broken her foot a couple days before we left, so she had to wear
a big bulgy cast on her foot.


On
the way to Boothbay we talked about a lot of things and asked a lot
of questions like, “are we there yet”? “how much
longer”?. We also liked to talk about what we are going to buy
for presents because everything is on sale. When we got there we
checked into the Flagship Inn and brought our stuff to our room.
After that we went out to eat at the pizza place. We had a really
good time there eating pizza and hanging out with family and friends.


My
aunt Judy lives down to Boothbay, so after pizza we went and saw her
for a little while. Then we went back to the hotel to go to bed
because we had to get up early in the morning.


At
about 4:30 the next morning we woke up. We didn`t need to get
dressed, so we hopped into the car and left. We started at the shoe
place and ended at enchantments, Enchantments. Enchantments is so
cool! they have all kinds of cool things hanging from the ceiling and
off the walls . It is so cool ,but very expensive on some things.
Some other stores we went to were The Hutch, Smiling Cow, Canary, The
Christmas Store, The Pet Store, Life Is Good, Sherman`s, The Corner
Store and Angels Unaware.


After
we are done shopping we usually go have a BIG breakfast at Mr. C`s.
All my family and friends who went shopping with us went including
Mariah ,Gram,Auntie Beth, Aunt Kathy, Aunt Tammy, cousin Hattie,
cousin Hillary, cousin Hannah, Holly, Aunt Judy, and my aunt Judy`s
friend Ramona, she is at least 90 and she acts as if she is 20 ramona
is really fun to hang out with she always puts a smile on your face
even when no one else can she is the best. We sat around a big huge
table filled with love and laughter. We talk about what we bought and
stupid things I life that are happening. I could feel the laughter
and love build up inside of me. Then the silence was broke by may I
take your order, I told her what I wanted then I went back to talking
with friend mariah.


When
we were done breakfast we said our goodbyes and then we headed home
on the way home we showed each other our purchases. We also shared
to each other of how poor we were because cause we spent so much
money down to Boothbay. But it was really fun to spend time with
family and friends!





















The End!

Molly Cookson BPW
















               In my Clothing store I would like to attract customers by selling my goods at a decent price.

               In my store I would like to offer incentives like a buy one get one 50% off or buy 2 get 1 free

               for the consumer.  I don`t want to have so many sales that my revenue goes down,but i do want

               to meet the needs of the consumer. I want to sel
l renewable resources.  If at anytime I have a surplus

               I will have a sale to sell what I
need to to keep my shelfs looking neat.  I as the producer want to make my

               products a decent price and good quality like not after one wash all the threads will fall out.  I would also

               like to offer trade-offs for people who cannot use cash.  I would also like to help people with there

               alternatives
  the choices they need to make like what color shirt should I get blue or green?  Then I would

               help the customer with his or her criteria which would be there choice after trying on the shirt they choose.

               When the customer is ready to check out I will allow currency check or credit card.  At the end of the work

               I will need to think of a budget that fits my needs of me and the customer. If at anytime my stock becomes

               scarce I will need to use some of my income to buy what i need to keep my business running.  I would love                   to keep my cost of production low so that I can sell a product for less and have more happy customers and
               less un-happy customers.  I hope to have. If I happen to have scarcity happen at anytime I would like to      
               take care of it immediately when it does happen if it ever does. Hopefully I can maintain a good selling                         rhythm so if I do have to enter a law of supply i can try to manage it smoothly not all jaggedly.  Now if I                       do happen to have a law of supply I will try to turn that into a law of demand but keep my supply at the                   right height. On my stocked shelfs I would like to use prototype models to advertise my clothing so people                   can see it out and on someone else so they don`t have to go try on all there clothing they can buy it then if                   they need to  return for any reasons I can except that but if they do want to try it on they can feel free to.
