Letter to the Editor

To the Editor,

I am Kathleen Politis and I am writing in because I find that the article written you Mr. Bolt in the Herald Sun concerning the so called ‘controversial’ show ‘Californication’ on Channel 10 is absolute rubbish and is a very one sided article. I am quite disgusted at the statements made by Mr Bolt, he constantly refers to the show as having no storyline but instead just soft core porn. Seriously Mr Bolt shouldn’t you be making that assumption after watching more than one show. You also state that the show destroys all moral values, honeslty do you know the meaning of moral values? You change your argument throughout your article from complaining that the show is basicly soft core porn to talking nonsense about moral values. I honestly think you should re think what you are going to write and check if it has anything to do with your contention. Out of a small survey I have conducted throughout my school, 92% of people disagree with your article.

I think you have shocked many people with your article, because I personally do not appreciate your outlook on ‘Californication’.

Allegory

Once upon a time, in the lands of Africa, there was a small and secrete village called Roar, which was inhabited by fierce and hungry Lions. There is no near by inhabited villages only the lions feeding ground, which they called Lamb Central, here is where the lions come at night to savor lambs. Over many years the Lion and the Lambs had great hate for each other, the lambs tried many times to fight the lions in order to have their rights, but never succeeded. The lambs thought of every way possible to make peace with the lions, but the lions only had two things in mind and that was to eat the lambs and feed their cubs. One courageous little lamb named Wooly would sit up all night figuring out ideas on how to save his friends and family from the teeth of the lions. He would secretly venture through the village of Roar to see what the lions do after dark. But one night something unexpected happened. The floor started shaking and loud BOOMS were defining his ears. Wooly was terrified to look into the distance to see a rare stampede of elephants. Wooly in a panic rush tried to run back to his friends and family to warn them, when in his pathway stood a tall and fierce some elephant with one leg up ready to stomp the lamb. Wooly stood there as still as could be and started praying for his village. The elephant looked oddly confused and put his leg down and started apologizing dearly to the Wooly. “I’m sorry” said the elephant. “For I thought this was the village Roar”. The elephant waved his trunk and the elephants fled. Wooly’s terror was not over just yet, as he looked up to find that he was surrounded by Lions, but with a different look than usual on their faces. “Thank you young Lamb for you saved us from defeat from the elephants” said the Lions. “How can we repay you?” Wooly thought this was a great opportunity to make peace, even though he was making peace with the lions who killed half of him family. “Let’s make peace, No Lion or Lamb shall be killed by a Lion or Lamb” The Lions where shocked that the lamb would make such a deal like such, but had no choice than to agree. As time went past the lambs and lions made friends, finding other ways to gather food and joined their villages together. From that day on the lion lay down with the lamb.

Kathleen's Book Report♥

California Diaries: Dawn Diary 1 written by Ann. M. Martin

I did my book report on a book called Dawn: Diary 1 which is from the California Diaries series written by Ann. M .Martin. This book is in diary form and is about the main character Dawn. Dawn is a young teen just about to enter Junior High. During the book you experience all the dramas of her growing up, having good and bad times with her friends, getting up to mischief and her thoughts about boys and relationships. You also witness her mother die from cancer, which is a very moving part in the book.

I enjoyed reading this book, it was very interesting, it makes you not want to put it down because every diary entry has a twist and you just can’t wait to find out what happens

I would recommend this book to anyone between the ages of 8 and 16. I think this age group would appreciate the book and most of all enjoy it.
