How To Open A Present My Way (Thursday)

Thursday

First, you shake the present to guess what is inside.

Then you try to carefully tear the sellotape of the paper and try to keep the wrapping paper nice and tidy.

And lastly, see what's inside, show how grateful you are and say thank you.

Phobias

What is a Phobia

An extreme or irrational fear of or aversion to something.

What is a fear?

An unpleasant emotion caused by the threat of danger, pain, or harm.

What is your phobia

I have a phobia of when trees and scratching on the window because I always think it is someone or something is tapping or scratching on the window.

Acrophobia – Fear of Heights

Acrophobia, or fear of heights, is a very common phobia. Depending on the severity of the phobia, acrophobes may fear everything from being on the upper floors of a tall building to climbing a ladder. Being at heights will cause sufferers to experience classic anxiety symptoms such as heart palpitations, shaking, and sweating. Acrophobics may also experience feelings of vertigo (although vertigo is a separate medical problem) or lose trust in their own sense of balance. Descending as quickly as possible is usually crucial to overcoming these feelings of anxiety. However, sufferers may feel frozen, or too frightened to move quickly from the situation that is causing them distress.

Arachnophobia – Fear of Spiders

Arachnophobia is more common in women, but it does affect men in large numbers as well. Psychologists have speculated that a phobia of spiders arises from an evolutionary instinct – most spiders are venomous, although very few are dangerous to humans. Others speculate that arachnophobia comes more from common cultural misconceptions about spiders than from any real threat.

Arachnophobes may be unable to deal with spiders that appear in their home, and may even resort to leaving the house if no one is available to assist them. They may also avoid outdoor activities such as camping that put them at greater risk of coming into contact with spiders.

Ophidiophobia – Fear of Snakes

Speculations about the causes of ophidiophobia generally run along the same lines as the possible origins of arachnophobia. Ophidiophobes are likely to avoid the same kinds of outdoor pursuits as arachnophobes, but, fortunately for them, snakes are much less likely than spiders to visit a home uninvited.

Dear Diary...

Dear Diary...
I have been training and waiting for a whole year for this Christmas and I had so much excitement to

start the night off. As I went to more and more houses I started to notice that no one was giving me and my reindeer friends carrots. I started feeling sad and hungry. My body starts feeling exhausted. But I still had hope that maybe one family, just one family hasn't forgotten about us reindeer. But still, no one was giving us anything. Santa saw that there was a strange looking place called Mc Donalds. Santa had hope that that place would have some treats for us. So he headed down to see. As he came out we noticed that he was holding a bag full of packets. I had hope that it was for us. I was full of joy. Yes, it was for us. After eating those delicious treats I had to finish the hard night ahead of us.

Dear Mr and Mrs Claus...

Dear Mr and Mrs Claus

I wish for something that will help a lot of kids throughout the world. I wish for a lot of food and
medicine for the kids in the world whose family can't afford to pay for the most important stuff to keep them alive. I wish also for them to all have nice new clothes and shoes so they can feel happy and have the energy to keep alive. I have seen this on a bunch of adds all over TV about the kids who are dying without food.

Merry Christmas
