Take Away

In Australia, in my country and in almost every country I'm sure every body likes take away food. We don't think of take away food as good or harmful. Some working ladies come home and they are tired and they don't want to cook, so they buy take away. Of course it is no good to get take away all the time, because it causes obesity.

In my country I never eat take away food, but since I came here I eat take away almost twice a week. It's not just take away which is bad, but also chocolates, lollies...These ones are harmful too. Sometimes I watching TV documentaries which show some people who ate so much take away that now they are obese and do nothing. So we should be careful of what we eat.

My Father and My Son

This movie is a good drama. The man is married and his wife is pregnant but his wife died at birth. When his wife died he got sick and went to hospital. His mother-in-law looked after his baby son. After six years he came out of hospital and went to his father's home, but his father doesn't speak to him because his son hadn't listened to him about not marrying and not going to Istanbul. After a little the kid's father learnt he would die and two months later he died. The little kid missed his father but he got used to life.

It's a really good movie and I'm sure everyone will cry.

Vote

Last Saturday was state election day in NSW. I didn't vote because I'm not an Australian citizen. When I'm a citizen I'll use the vote, but I will find it very difficult to choose a candidate. In here and my country, it's the same everywhere, there are brochures to read before voting and voting is easy. But in my country after you vote they drop ink on your nails, so that you can't vote again. I hope whoever wins is a good administrator.

Exotic Country

I really don't know which country these pictures are from, but I guess it is Africa because people's skin is black and they are carrying a fruit plate on the head. I don't know if my reasoning is right or wrong.

I think it is a beautiful country because tourists come to beach. Maybe it is a multicultural country with black people and white people mixed. Maybe some people come to this country to see dolphins.
