Where am I @
So this week has been hard for me because I've just been thinking on my own lately about moving out of the Health Physics Academy or whatever it's called but, sorry. I want out of this because the way I want my future to start in high school now is to go with what I can handle, what I want what is best for me. So eventually I did try knocking that door down but my teacher and this other teacher is pushing me back to where I don't want to be. They say "I think it's better if you stay here because this class gets extra tutoring from tutors" and believe me I appreciate it but I don't think this is my future pathway. Even though I really like it here, but though it's not my passion here. And I'm sorry Ms. Wells if you're reading this. I just wanted to see what it is like here and if I would enjoy it or not and I feel like I'll rather just be a ordinary student without this Health Physics thing sorry. (This was something off my chest that I wanted to say...)

Child Trafficking in Ghana
I couldn't believe that Ghana, a western African country could possibly solve their problems by Child Trafficking. In Ghana there are children being smuggled or being transported to work in Farms of cocoa bean for hours. The only reason for this problem is to get money out of it to probably help with the groceries and etc.
This can have a negative impact on the children especially at a young age. Because they won't have an education during their childhood days. When they grow up to be mature young adults they won't know how to read or do the math because they were troubled with working on the farm. Some parents won't let their children eat as well, if they won't go to work at the cocoa farms.
So the government is currently trying to resolve this issue from happening to our young generation. Because buyers or companies are too into chocolate they would need the cocoa beans, and that causes child trafficking. But if farmers join the Unions of Fair trade they would get a fair price from the cocoa beans, and the profits would go back into the community.

Child Labour
Child labour is children under the age of 15 years old who are working long hours in hazardous conditions which leads to psychological/physical harm to the brain.
An immediate effect on a child who works under age is getting tired from working long hours and not getting an education or daily meals. And a long time effect on child labour is their income-earning potential as adults.
The reason why there are millions of children working as child labourers is because families or parent's who are too weak or too old can't work anymore to pay off their debts. So they "bond" a child. Bonding a child is giving your own child to work off the payments so eventually at the end debts will be paid.
To me child labour is out of hand. There should not be any more child labourers around the world period because education is our birth right, so against child labour we must fight.

Amazon Rainforest - Geographically Significant
The Amazon Rainforest is a geographical significant place because of its features of the landscape and the living creatures on the land and sea. The Amazon Rainforest is the largest rainforest international and it only covers 6% of the Earth's land surface and it is home to over 50% of global biodiversity.
The Amazon Rainforest is located in South America right on the equator so with the sun always rising from that specific point it is mostly hot there and sometimes rainy. The Amazon Rainforest runs through Bolivia, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador & Peru.
"Lungs Of The Planet" they call the Amazon Rainforest. Because there are so many trees there and they provide pure oxygen and clean out the c02 in the air and all the negative oxygen in the air. So that's why the Amazon Rainforest is also called the "Lung's Of The Planet."

The Amazon Rainforest
The Amazon Rainforest is located in South America. South America is on the equator which makes the temperature for some countries really hot. The Amazon Rainforest is known for the cradles of biodiversity because it is the home to many species of living plants/species/animals. This Amazon Rainforest are the lungs to the world because they have many trees that provide clean fresh air and clean out carbon dioxide and the negative CO2.

One Tree Hill: Maungakiekie
This is my brainstorm about One Tree Hill. As you may have heard One Tree Hill is a hill located in Auckland and it was best known for the tree standing on top of the hill. At the end the tree had to be cut down. If you wanna know some reasons why, well I suggest you to read or scan through my brainstorm.

My Significant Place
The place that is significant to me is the cemetery. The cemetery is a place where I go to with my family to be reunited with my mother or loved ones who had past away when I was a little child or as I was growing up.
Another reason why this place is significant to me is because it makes me reminisce all those good times and bad memories I had with that person but, I never got that chance to do that so it just brings me closure to my mother’s presents and helps me think about things like how my childhood would’ve been if my mother was still alive.
A third reason why this place is significant to me is because I like visiting my mum and other close family members who had past away. And I don't like to make them feel like they've been forgotten because they haven't to me. And they been soo much to me even if they're dead.
