April Fool's Day

April Fool's Day

April Fool's is celebrated every year on the first day of April. The purpose for this day is to have fun and laugh about the pranks people do to others. Some theories about April fools is that people in Italy caught a fish and taped it to the back of their victim. Then when the victim noticed something weird they would look at their backs and the the fish on them. Some people would lie about something on the news paper to scare or get some people excited about an event. The pros about April fools is that people will have fun and act like little kids, they will laugh until they feel like they can't breath anymore. The Cons are that some people will take the prank too far and hurt someone. Sometimes the joke might make a person feel bad about themselves.

Music

Music

The topic that i'm interested in is music. Reason i chose this topic is because i sometimes sing on my own. Music has been around for really long time. It has been a way to express our feelings about something. Today signing is still used to express themselves. Sometimes i sing on my own because it helps me relax and think about stuff. I don't sing in front of people because i don't have a good voice and i get nervous. But when i sing on my own a just forget about every bad thing and just lose my self in the music. Music can have a big impact on us and depending on the type of music we hear can sometimes tell us about who we are.
