By FuzzyFuzz
Ever wanted to look up at the stars on a clear and starry night? Well, you don't have to have any supplies except for your eyes. Many constellations are out there and have stories behind them that add a little bit of uniqueness.
The Big and Little Dipper
One day, there was a wood nymph. Zeus, god of the sky hid the nymph Callisto from Hera, his wife. To do this he changed Callisto into a bear. Later, her son Actas was hunting. He came across his bear mother and almost made the mistake of shooting her. Fortunately, Zeus saw this. So Actas didn't accisentally kill his mother, Zeus flung them both into space. The handel-like things are actually the bears tails. It is said they are long because Zeus flung them so long. The big and little dipper are part of two constellations called Ursa major and Ursa minor. The little dipper is part of Ursa minor and the big, major. These are just two constellations out of the many, some not even discovered

Odd, Cool, Weird, amazing towns in the USA
Alright, your driving around and you come upon a small town, your a little lost, you see no one around. A ghost town? Maybe, but in Monowi, Nebraska, there is only 1 resident, Elsie Eiler. This town was never a thriving town. By the time Elsie had began grade school, the populations was only about 150. In 1990, the population dropped to 8. In 2000, the population was 2, Elsie and her husband. In 2004, Elsie husband, Rudy passed away. Elsie is the mayor and treasurer of the town. She lives without rent. She keeps herself busy by running her library and restaurant-where she serves tourist and truckers.
Land of Oz Theme Park, Beech Mountain, North Carolina
There's no place like home, there's no place like home! We're the words chanted by Dorthy in the famous film The Wizard of Oz . But what if you could see this is first perspective?
Grover Robbins decided to make this idea a reality in 1970. Sadly, the park closed in 1980, but it occasionally reopens on the weekends in June and in the fall. The park has changed its costumes around over the years. Visitors can experience the tornado, visit the Tin Man, Scarecrow, The Cowardly Lion, and the Wicked Witch of the West. They walk down a yellow brick road, that leads to a show in the Emerald City. Then, they go on a Sky lift, created to look like a hot air balloon, this gives the visitors a Birdseye view of the Park.
Drawing
By Lou Lou
Drawing is a fun and easy thing to do. When it's free time or anxiety, drawing is a great activity everyone can do. Read more to see why I'm saying drawing is a magnificent thing to do.
Some people will ask how to draw this or how to you draw that. The answer to all of those answers is this: Draw anything that spills out of your mind. Whether if it's a blob of squiggles or an alien, I'll consider it a piece of art. You know why? It was drawn BY yourself and it came FROM yourself. That's all that matters. You don't need instructions on how to draw the most perfect bunny ever. As they always say: Always use your imagination. Being yourself can be the key to unlock the door that leads you to become an advanced writer. Drawing is the most perfect activity for anyone.
