ABOUT MY MOTHER
I love my mom and she loves me. My mom is very beautiful. My mom reads me books and tucks me in bed.
A SCARCE COMMODITY
The beginning of another school year is just around the corner. Some people are eager to enter a new grade, learn different subjects, interact with new friends, and most importantly, finally have a new teacher.
CONCERNED GLOBAL CITIZEN
A global citizen is someone who identifies with being part of an emerging world community and whose actions contribute to building this community’s values and practices. Are you aware about how many global issues are out there?
SIBLINGS
Siblings. There`s the GOOD, the BAD, the UGLY. Do you have an older sibling, younger sibling, or are you an only child? Do you hate how your older sibling bosses you around even though you’re only a few years apart? Do you hate how your younger sibling is so annoying? But you all have a bond.
I’M SUCH A LUCKY GIRL
I am such a lucky girl because: I go to school to learn to do work, I have toys to play with,
TEN YEARS AGO
Ten years ago, on August 11, a beautiful Africanadian baby girl was born in Toronto, Ontario. This baby girl is today a blogger writing blog stories like this one. Today, I am going to tell you a bit of my past ten years. I hope I will remember most of the things.
HALLOWEEN
Do you like Halloween? I do. I am going to tell you about Halloween.
LAUGH NOT
As we all know by now, the beloved actor/comedian Robin Williams was found dead in his home in Paradise Cay, near Tiburon, California. The sixty-three year old apparently had committed suicide by hanging on August 11, 2014, after suffering from numerous years of deep depression and drug and alcohol addiction during his career.
PEER PRESSURE
Every day I read a devotional book called “Our Daily Bread”. Recently I came across an African fable about why the thumb is not so close to the other fingers. According to this story, the thumb and the other fingers lived on one hand. They were the best of friends until one day; they found a ring and wanted to take it.
JEALOUSY
Today were going to talk about jealousy.
OUR NEW MENTOR
Rather we tolerate it or not. We have a new type of mentor in the world. It's media. Our new generation of kid's actions are now being influenced by media. Depending on the games they play and the shows they watch. Media is all around us with lots of messages. But do we really think that media is a good mentor?
GOOD VS. EVIL
Almost every single movie that I have ever watched is centered around good vs. evil. For instance: Home Alone, Superman, Harriet the Spy, and so many more. Books as well almost always have good vs. evil in a subject or characters. Titled: Divergent, Robin Hood, etc... Even the Holy Book, -the bible- does to.
MOTHER AFRICA
In memory of Vanessa Yasintha Wambura (August 2003 – August 2023). Since I was born in Canada, Canada is considered my motherland. And since my parents were born in Africa (Tanzania!), to me Africa is my second motherland.
SCHOOL ROCKS
Summer is almost done, and September is around the corner. Wahoo! But why am I cheering? Of course, I missed one important thing, S-C-H-O-O-L. I have not been in a school for the past six weeks. I am not saying I am bored, but of course I am missing something!
THE ATTACK
Call 911!! The generation is being attacked by… SOCIAL MEDIA!! YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Email, Google +, Pinterest, Flickr, even Skype! You name it. Which ones do you have? Those are not even half of today`s social media websites.
JOYFUL DEPRIVED AFRICA
Do you know where most parents take their kids during summer vacation? Well, this question may have lots of different answers that if I were to list here, I could easily lose focus on what I would like to say. Anyways, my parents have been sending me to Africa, the continent in which they were born. Tanzania and Uganda to be specific.
THE MAGIC OF BOOKS
Books. Books are like airplane tickets. Depending on what book you are reading, they transport you to different time’s places, countries etc…
THE SUPERIOR BEING!
For a very long time, people everywhere have been asking this very well known question. This question has caused many arguments throughout the ages. Children argue about it. Teenagers argue about it. Even the so called “mature” adults have argued about it.
