This is my last English blog post fro this term. I hope you like it.

The Gone Mysterious Island. 

It was a mysterious and unrelatable island. There were trees talking and animals singing like human beings. The trees don’t have faces and the animals were just furry and cute. But no one imagines that they would sing and talk like they're just normal humans. The people were like fairies flying around and speaking their own language like their squeaking like squirrels. They were small and cute little fairies. Every fairy has special powers. Some of them can control water, air, fire, earth, others can make animals listen to them, and others don't have special powers they have their own ability to create and make inventions that is easy for them to use.


Each of the fairies has its own unique colors. Purple ones are the ones that control water, Yellow ones are the ones that control the sunlight, the green ones are the ones that have the ability to create a special invention for them, the orange ones are the ones that can control earth, Blue control the animals, pink can control fire and all the fairies call them the feisty fairies. And all the other colors control their own special abilities. 


They are just us humans but they have their own way of life. Everything was going on well with their kingdom. But everything changes when people try to capture them for experiment and search what kind of species are they. Others tried to capture them and sell them to the people so that they can make money. Their whole kingdom was afraid of what’s happening to them. So the Queen of fairies decided to leave their island and go somewhere safe because it is a life-loss island for them.


 The island was an incredible place And it is now a historic island. The beautiful green and colorful island were gone. The refreshing smell of the island and its happy people disappeared into thin air. It was unfortunate for the fairies but not for the humans. They were living a happy life and enjoying every single day with a happy smile on their face. They are enjoying life without them knowing they ruined other peaceful and beautiful living creature’s homes. The things they’ve done can not be undone. 


Imagine someone destroying your kingdom and your people, would you feel bad or feel good? because when we want to destroy something we have to think if it’s a bad thing to do or a good thing. Think clearly, we might not know that other special creatures are living below or above us. That’s an important thing to do before shattering other things like what humans did to the Believing Island and its people.

It's referring to how our ancestors teach their children how to speak politely. And that's how we Samoans learn how to speak politely and how we treat our elders and everyone.

Anti-Vietnam War.

 War.

 The Vietnam War was a long, costly and divisive conflict that pitted the communist government of North Vietnam against South Vietnam and its principal ally, the United States. The conflict was intensified by the ongoing Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.  
Vietnam War song
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
War, huh, yeah
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it again, why'all
War, huh, good god
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
Oh, war, I despise
'Cause it means destruction of innocent lives
War means tears to thousands of mothers eyes
When their sons go to fight
And lose their lives
I said, war, huh good god, why'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing say it again
War, whoa, lord
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing, listen to me
it ain't nothing but a heart-breaker
(War) friend only to the undertaker
Oh, war it's an enemy to all mankind
The point of war blows my mind
War has caused unrest
Within the younger generation
Induction then destruction
Who wants to die, ah, war-huh, good god why'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing
Say it, say it, say it
War, huh
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing listen to me
it ain't nothing but a heart breaker
(War) it's got one friend that's the undertaker
Oh, war, has shattered many a young mans dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean
Life is much to short and precious
To spend fighting wars these days
War can't give life
It can only take it away
Oh, war, huh good god why'all
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing say it again
whoa, lord
What is it good for
Absolutely nothing listen to me
it ain't nothing but a heart breaker
(War) friend only to the undertaker
Peace, love, and understanding
Tell me, is there no place for them today
They say we must fight to keep our freedom
But lord knows there's got to be a better way
Oh, war, huh good god why'all
What is it good for you tell me
Say it, say it, say it, say it
huh good god why'all
What is it good for
Stand up and shout it nothing.

The song explains that war is not a right thing to do and that there's nothing good about war. Because a lot of lives will be taken and people will lose a lot of their loved ones. So that's why war should stop.
