How I Became AITIS 2017-18 Student Council President

     Obama, Thomas Jefferson, and George Washington all once were presidents of the United States of America. I wish I could be important like them so I could think of good things for everybody. Then a week after school started I got a chance to run for president at my school.

     I still remember, it was after snack time, some of my friends were talking about the election. That day I spent lot of time thinking about the election, should I join or not. “Anyway, it is my last year here and if I don’t join I won’t have another chance to join,” I thought. So the next day I was running for president. Only a few of my classmate knew I was running for president, which wasn’t good. People make up their mind who to vote for long before the voting day. I decided to go talk to the students. That snack time, I gathered all my courage and went around the school asking people what do they want more in school. Most of the student promised they’ll vote for me but some just smiled and walked away. Then the pre- election rolled up. I was very nervous because most six graders were voting for Pinky, also a candidate for president, but looking on the bright side lots of students in grade five liked me. After lunchtime, there was a poster on the bulletin board announcing the candidates, I was so happy I was officially running for president. On the weekend, I spent lots of time finishing my poster and my speech.

     After preparing for days, that day finally came. The day where all the candidates went classroom to classroom telling their speeches. The president was up first. Pinky went up first. When it was my turn, I felt like my heart was not working but after the speech, I wished I could do it again. In some classrooms, people cheered for me but in some people cheered for Pinky. When it was all over, I felt relieved and proud. A few days later, our class-counseling teacher called me and the other candidates. We were in a small office when she announced it: treasurer, sectary, representative, reporter, vice president and lastly president, when she announced it my heart skipped a beat. She called me. It was one of the happiest day in my life. I was the new president of AITIS.

     I have much more responsibility and work but I’m going to try my best to be a good president.

Step 1- Measure the green felt about half of you bottle.
Step 2- Use tape to stick it onto your bottle.
Step 3- Cut 3 small circles and 3 bigger ones.
Step 4- Cut out one red triangle felt for the Christmas hat. Cut four long triangles for the nose and a short piece of fuzzy wire to make the scarf.
Step 5- Draw the eyes for your snowman or snow woman (draw wacky eyes). 
Step 6- Stick one big circle to a small one. Stick the two beads to the body (using a glue stick is way easier). Stick the nose and any accessory you want on it.

Last but not least step 8- Put your friend's favorite candies inside, tie a bow around it.

Watching Movies at Home VS  Cinema
​(Please Click the Button Below to Vote)

I love watching movies especially Disney ones. Finding Dory, Up, and Home are all great movies I have seen, but where should we watch them, at the cinema or at home? Let’s compare the two places and see which one is better.

You can wear comfortable clothes like PJs when you are at home.
Also you don’t need to waste time getting to the cinema, you can just open your TV or computer and watch it.
You can watch it as many times as you want and have breaks whenever you like.
The main reason why some people don’t go to cinema is because they don’t have to pay any money if they watch it at home.

However, watching movies at home doesn't give you that good quality. In the theater the screen is biggerr, the sound is louder and the picture is clearer.
Cinemas also have lots of food which is convenient when you are hungry in the middle of a film.
You can also watch a movie as soon as it comes out because it would take weeks or even months before it will be uploaded on youtube.
Cinema tickets are expensive but considering its benefits it's not that much.

There is one thing though, that I really don't like about cinema which is the ads they show before the movie starts, it will take a minimum of ten minutes.

I would prefer watching movies at home but I won’t stop going to the cinema either to watch some of my favorite films.

Pizza
  
There once was a man who loved pizza.
It made him want to shout mama mia!
He ate it everywhere,
Under a table or on a chair.
​And he finished it off with a bottle of cola.

International Day of the Girl Child
Do Women Have Same Legal Rights?

Picture

Women have contributed to the world a lot. For example, caring, feeding and teaching children. So why don’t they have the same rights as men do? Why don’t they fight for it?
 
Just look at all the 45 presidents of the United States, why isn’t there any women? People think women are not smart enough to be in positions like these.
 
Talking about legal right, women in many countries are target of domestic violence and have no right to speak against it.
 
They have no right to divorce and are left to live with people for life they have no mental match.
 
They also do not have same inheritance rights as men.

Many cultures also do not allow them to do certain jobs, especially the late night ones.
 
They are also not allowed to leave their homes without being accompanied by their men.
 
But why don’t they fight back?
 
Is it that because they are not educated to fight when they are young.  When they see their mothers cleaning after each meals while their father watches TV, or when they see the mother gives the last bit of food to their brother, they think that it is right and should always be done like that, and that they cannot survive without a man protecting them.
 
But the fact is that they need to know that women should be treated right.
 
Also those who are lucky to enjoy equal rights should fight for the less privileged.
 
I like a quote from Hillary Clinton, “Human rights are women’s right, and women’s right are human right”.

So why not  treat them as human beings? Please share your opinion with me in the comment section below.
