You're in a wood. Scattered around, are several clear pools. You feel the water, and it is cool, but not to cold to swim in.The only sounds you can hear are birds lightly chirping and the sound of running water, like a small creek. You look around, and it's nature as far as the eye can see. You also see the birds that were chirping. They are all beautiful colors of blue, green, brown, and they even make gray look gorgeous. You smell no pollution, just clean, crisp, air, pine, and the scent you smell after it has just rained. Up in the sky, light, fluffy clouds are rolling across the clear blue, clean atmosphere. It is sunny outside, but it is not hot and the sun is not glaring down. Instead, it is lightly falling towards the Earths surface. There is a gently breeze blowing past, and you smell the crispness in the air again. It's as if the entire World is in perfect balance and brimming with peace.

Order of Operations
It's the year 2027. You've already graduated college, and you're sitting in the main Google building taking and in-building job application. You've gotten through all the questions, and your feeling pretty confident. You're almost do-.......... oh no. You studied all last night, but you didn't put this into the equation (no pun intended). How could they put order operations in this?!? It's not like there was a quick easy way to remember this!!! Maybe If you had paid attention that one day back in 6th grade.......
Do you want this to be you? I didn't think so. The only way to successfully remember your order of operations is P.E.M.D.A.S. (Otherwise known as G.E.M.S.). And you don't want to be that person who can't remember their order of operations, do you? Because it could change everything...........

Final Draft Question 1 Compare/Contrast (just in case)
"I've brought you the apple you wanted, sir," Digory said as he completed Aslan's quest. In Narnia, Chapter 13, Digory shows many honorable traits, but the two that stand out the most are trustworthiness and inner-strength. He show a lot of trustworthiness by only picking an apple for Aslan, opposed to taking one more either for himself or his mother. Instead, he follows Aslan's instructions, even though he was tempted to do the wrong thing. Of course, this also takes a lot of inner strength. For him to say no to immortality, or using the cure for his dying mother, shows that Digory knew believeing in Aslan was the choice. Even so, it took a lot of will power to ignore the Witch, who was trying to convince him to make the wrong decision, and not stray from the correct path. Even after his surprise meeting with Jadis, Digory made the right decision to only take one apple from the Garden. This definatly shows trustworthiness and inner-strength.

Lost in the Woods
Your lost in a forest and the only person who can accompany you is a charector from a fictional book written by C. S. Louis. That dosn't leave you with to many options, but out of the few, I would definatly have to choose Polly Plummer. Polly is sensible, calm, yet very curious and open minded. An example of these fabulous traits would be when (on page 54-55) Polly knows that ringing a mysterious bell in a different world would be a bad idea. Did I mention she also has common sense? An example of her curiosity would be on page 106-107, when Polly and the rest hear a strange yet lovely voice. She remains calm and keeps a cool head, even though she is very excited and curious. All of these traits and qualities would help a lot in a bad situation, especially being lost in the woods. Polly would definatly be the best choice.

Olden Days Punishment
When my dad was a kid, and he got in trouble, there was a wide variety of punishments the teacher could choose from. Weather it was getting hit with a ruler, standing in the corner, or even the teacher throwing wooden chalkboard erasers across the room, the punishments were bad. But the one he remembers the most is having to write 200 lines for talking. But this wasn't the normal writing lines. No, he would have to write lines with one of those pens with the different colors, and you could change colors by pressing a little switch. But it gets worse. Every word had to be a different color. So not only was it very tedious, but by the time he was half way through the page, his hands would start to cramp, but he had to keep writing.

Polly's Diary Entry: The Voice
Dear Diary,
Today, the most phenomenal thing happened! When we were all in the Wood Between the Worlds,
we got ourselves transported to a new world. First, it was pitch black and deadly silent. But then an extraordinary event happened! A strange but lovely Voice started singing! And soon, millions of stars just popped into the sky! Some may call me daft, but I am positively sure that The Voice created the stars! And this wasn't an ordinary Voice, either. While it was singing, I felt that nothing bad could possible happen to me. Soon The Voice started getting much louder, and the sky getting brighter. When The Voice was so loud as I could feel inside of me, the sun rose from behind the hills! Then I found where The Voice was coming from. A large, majestic lion was slowly making its way towards us, and singing plants to life while doing so. Obviously, Mr. Kirke and Jadis were horrified of it, but the cabby, Diggory, and I felt surprisingly calm, and didn't move.
