The Sound Of Laughter By:Francis Duggan

The sound of laughter is a thing of beauty for laughter spreads the very gift of joy
That people they are drawn to happy people is not that hard for to understand why
Since everybody wishes to be happy and laughter it spreads happiness around
And only the heartless could not like the sound of laughter for laughter is a very happy sound,
Than laughter there is no more happy feeling laugh and the World laughs with you seems so true
But if you feel sad and for yourself feeling sorry the saddest person in the World is you
Even your friends would rather not be with you if they see you as one who worship gloom
The happy people attract people to them and in their presence happiness does bloom,
The sound of laughter sends out laughter ripples it is a sound one always loves to hear
And laughter it gives rise to smiling faces and never fails to fill the cup of cheer
The sad one who feels comfort in self pity is the one others do not wish to know
But if you are one who laughs away your worries your friends in numbers seem to grow and grow
And who could not but love the sound of laughter to it there always is a joyful ring
It seems to send happiness out in ripples it is a joyful and infectious thing.

The Reason why I choosed this poem was because its true what it says. I’m that type of person that is always wanting to make people happy and I’m always or usually smiling and laughing. I want to brighten peoples day, and I think that this poem resembles me.

First woman to become a Veterinarian

The first woman to become a veterinarian was Ried Isabelle Bruce (belle). She was born on december 21, 1883. She was the youngest out of all 10 children. Her family have owened a large property in Balwyn. Ried was educated at Genazzono Convent School. She was accomplished needle woman and had shown potential as soprano. She had wanted to keep studying with singing, which her parents found it unsutiable for a young girl.Ried had decided to start wanting to do something new which was to become a veterinarian, where her parents have supported her. She entered melobourne veterinary collage in 1902. Ried died on december 13, 1945, what reid had died from was from Coronary Thrombosis. I have chosen her because she was the first woman to become a Veterinarian, something I want be in the Future.

The students had favorite teacher. Her name is Miss. Ralston. They would discribe her with like a young teacher , she was pretty big, and that she would treat kids like "real people". They showed identity on how their teacher looked like. Also it would be the main character in the story.


The Boys and the girls never really got along with eachother. Well they would just not with amount of sharing with eachother. They girls in the story show that they have Resilience. They show that they will never go up. The part in the story where her friend Arnold tells her to give up and stop trying to get a chance with being able to get water with the bucket, and Alma didn't care on what he say and kept on trying and believing.


Miss.Ralston was a teacher that understood everyones opinion. When she understood how the girls would feel, about not being able to go and do what they wanted to do. She Gave everyone a chance, which I would say that she gave the balance.

The story tells you on how the girls have wanted to do what the guys jobs was, which was to go get water. The girl named Alma asked one day that why couldn't the girls also do it, miss Ralston never responded anything negative to her. She just stared at the classroom and told alma that she will tell her in a week. Miss Ralston has done something called Movement in the story. She has given the girls a chance. One day she even let the girls play baseball with the boys, there was a movement because that has never happened.

I am glad the Miss. Ralston understood everone's opinion, and never said anything mean. She always understood and I believe she gave the kids chances.

The Friday Everything Changed

The Friday Everything Changed paragrah 3 page 2 paraghraph 3 says ‘The boys kind of admired Miss Ralston for strapping so hard and us girls admired her because she was so pretty and wore nylon stockings and loafers all the time.’ Basically the reason they liked her is because she didn't seem to be like one of those teachers that would be strict with you. Then When Alma asked Miss. Ralston why the girls couldn’t go and with the bucket to get the water.This short story isn't only about the girls wanting to get water too. Its about why girls aren’t allowed to do what all the boys do, go get water, play sports ect. I Like how Miss Ralston gives everyone a chance and understanda the girls feelings.

A Slice Of My Life: What Matters To Me

Hello, My name is Sonia, and here are some things that matter to me.

Things that I like to do is playing the guitar. Ever since I was around 12, I have wanted to play an instrument. I got a violin because that’s what I wanted to learn to play but later on I didn't. After a couple a years later I got interested in learning how to play the Guitar, I learned a bit in guitar class, but not that much. I am now teaching myself. I now want to learn how to play the drums and the bass. Music Is what I'm really interested in.

Another things that would also be important to me would be going on vacation with my family. I usually go to Chile with my family, my mom tries to go every month. I just got back from a family trip from Chile. I got to see all my family even got to meet some I haven't met before. I went n for 2 months and I enjoyed it a lot.

My 3rd thing that would be important to me would be having some free time, where i don't have any homework, don't have to study for anything. I enjoy spending time with my friends, I do get to see them in school and everything, but i like hanging out at there house or going to the mall or just go watch a movie. Its something I think most kids like doing.I just want to be happy, which i think is important for everyone.

School would also be something that matters to me, to most people . I have always tried my hardest to get good grades.I Want to get a great job that I would like and be proud to work at,and I think if you want that you have to try hard in school so you can get what you want in the future.

My conclusion is that there are lots of things that matter to me, family, music,school, and friends, and of course for me to be happy. Those would be the things that are the most important to me in life .|
