Nursing is one of the greatest professions in the world. Its so much more important than most jobs. The sad thing is that nurses get paid so little. They do such a valuable job but get paid less than politicians. This is not right. Politicians do wha...
A Just stop and think how important numbers are to our lives. Numbers control us. In fact, we are numbers. We have passport numbers, social security numbers, ID numbers, and more. We live in a house and a street that has a number. We communicate with...
Nuclear weapons are the worst thing invented by man. The day we invented them was a black day in our history. Fortunately, they have only been used a few times. We only need to read the history of what happened in Japan to understand why nuclear weap...
Many scientists say nuclear energy is our future. Many normal people arent so sure. I think most of us worry about nuclear energy. We hear on the news about the dangers of nuclear power. Many years ago there was a big accident in Chernobyl, Russia. A...
Our nose is the strangest of all body parts. Its such a funny thing. And where is it? Right on the front of our face. Right in the middle. It would be OK if everyone had exactly the same nose. But we all have a different nose. Some of us have a big n...
Noise is everywhere. I bet there isnt a place on Earth where you cant hear anything. I live in the city, so noise is everywhere. Sometimes it gets to me. I really want to have a button to turn it off. Its amazing how much noise there is around us. We...

I like the night. Its an interesting time of the day. The city changes at night. I like all the bright lights. People seem to be more active. Everyone is rushing home or going out. All the action starts at night. Restaurants, bars and clubs open. Eve...
Why is the news always so depressing? Every time I look at the news, I get sad. Its always war, death, killing, famine. Why cant news stations report happy news? They really dont have to bring us such terrible stories. I looked at the news last night...
Neighbours are very hit and miss. Sometimes you hit the jackpot and get neighbours who become great friends. Other times you get the short straw and have nightmare neighbours. Ive had good and bad neighbours. Im not sure why some neighbours are so ba...
I dont know about you, but I think there are more natural disasters now than before. Every time I turn on the news theres some kind of disaster. There are bushfires in Australia and California, earthquakes in China, hurricanes in Mexico and droughts...
Nationality is a strange thing. I dont think it used to be. Nowadays, with globalization, people want to change their nationality. Many people from poor countries want to go to rich countries and become citizens. Its strange because I dont understand...
Some national anthems are really good and some arent. I like my countrys anthem. It makes me feel proud of my country every time I hear it. Im a little embarrassed to say I dont know the words to it. In some countries, they play the national anthem e...
I like my names. I have four names my family name, my given name and two middle names. Im not sure why I have two middle names. I guess my parents wanted to name me after two of my uncles. Names are different all over the world. In some countries, fa...
