We have to save water

By Minkyoung Cha

Many women walk for miles and miles to get some water, but all they get is one bucket of dirty water. For them, clean water is precious as gold. For us, we are wasting water like it is nothing, thinking that water is everywhere. But actually, only 0.37% of water is drinkable for humans in this entire earth. Also, there are countries that fight for water. There is a country that actually built 27 dams to prevent the water flowing to different countries!

See how important water is? If you’re even wasting water right now, doesn’t this make you think of a solution of this problem? The solution for this problem is to shower for only 2 minutes. It will save at least 2 gallons of water. Another way to save water is to not change clothes too much. If you change your clothes too much, there will be lots of laundry, and to do those laundries, at least 4 gallons of water are needed.

If you use these strategies, you will be able to save lots of gallons of water. It is just like a piggy bank. If you save some money, it won’t be too much now, but it will be very heavy in the future, and help us.

Restaurant Review

By Maheeka

I'm going to present to you the coolest, the most nicest restaurant I've ever been too its Mainland China.

One Reason it is the best, it has nice and comfortable chairs that you wouldn't know which one to sit on it is a revolving restaurant too I mean the floor revolves not the table isn't that cool!?!?

Oh if you're a chinese person and you eat with chopsticks just chill cause there you get chopsticks. Better visit mainland china!!!!!!!!!! Next the food there will make your mouth water because the food is so tasty that its hard to choose which one to start with It is a very popular restaurant.Right After  you've finished your food, if you want then for dessert you can order brownie with icecream. The brownie will come in sizzling pan and the icecream will come on a normal plate. And a bowl of chocolate will be served to you. The waiter will put the chocolate sauce or you can yourself after you or the waiter has put it guess what, steam starts to come up, it starts to sizzle

Another Reason is that the service people there are betterthan room service people who work in hotels cause they don'tsay1 min or 1 sec  they just come right to you whenever you call them!!!!!!!

Hey you people I've given you three reasons of why mainland china is the best restaurant don't forget it revolves and don't forget thhat the food there will make your mouth water sooooooooooooo why don't you jump in and try it out!!!!!!!!!!!????????????
