    I hear a faint ping noise coming from my phone I can hear it over and over again. Then I finally rise up and rub my eyes, weirdly it doesn’t seem like it’s morning... it’s very dark and I can’t even see anything, I look over to my phone and see somebody has been texting me on an app I have called Discord. I then see the time, 1 AM!? Who could be texting me at this time at night? I swipe the notification and unlock my phone, I read the message and it says “hey k8 lets play sploon2!!! I’m bored” It was from my friend Leo. Since I’m a nice person, I agreed to playing. I got onto the game Splatoon 2 on my Nintendo Switch, Leo ends up calling me. My voice is very quiet and low, of course it is still 1 AM so I wasn’t going to talk very loud, my parents were sleeping in the next room. We decided to play regular turf wars. The two hours of gameplay consisted of Leo and I killing each other and whisper telling “I died again!” At around 3 AM for me and 5 AM for him we stopped playing and wen

    My topic for my essay is if video games cause violence or not. I chose this topic because I strongly believe that video games do not cause kids to be violent or aggressive in later life. I think this because  in the games there are clear warnings saying there is violence and warnings, so parents know that there is violence in the games before they buy them. Kids may have other reasons why they turn violent, they may be abused by their family, bullied at school, or something even worse that takes a toll on their behavior.

   I honestly think we should wear uniforms. For me wearing uniforms is easier because then planning out my outfit would be much easier. If you wear uniforms wearing the same clothes as everyone else could lower the chances of you being bullied, even though you can be bullied no matter what, getting bullied by what you wear would be out of the question. You don’t need to wear your own clothing to express yourself, clothes don’t describe you. You can express yourself by how you act or what you like, you really don’t need to use clothes. It’s really simple. People who wear uniforms are also proven to have done better in school and become more focused. Students who don’t wear uniforms could be a distraction, for example, if someone wears a shirt with a big design or something funny on it people might be distracted and want to look at it. It’s just better to wear uniforms in my opinion.

   I didn’t really do anything special last Friday, I pretty much just played Splatoon 2 all day with online friends. Since my cousin also stayed home we played in private battle and played hide and seek. Later one we started to gain more players to play hide and seek and the game was a lot more interesting! After Miranda went to go eat I also left to play ranked battles. After I got bored of playing Splatoon I played online Mario Kart, I usually ended up in 5th or 6th place and very rarely 2nd or 3rd, but never ever 1st. I pretty much just locked myself in my room and played on my Nintendo Switch all day. I went to sleep around 10, and woke up at 1 A.M. because my friend woke me up because he wanted to play Splatoon 2, so I ended up staying up until 3. It was very worth it though, sorta... (;_;)  I woke up at 10 in the morning.

    If I thought orcas should be kept in captivity I would talk about how much joy the shows bring to people. So many children go to watch these shows, but for them to stop would be upsetting especially people who haven’t been able to see a show but really wanted to. I would also talk about how the trainers won’t get hurt anymore since they stand behind the barriers around the pools and how orcas can’t hurt the trainers so they should stay in SeaWorld. Scientists can also go to SeaWorld and study how the killer whales act in captivity and better understand how a killer whale’s body works to better understand why they do things and how, they can also better understand the signals the killer whales give to each other if they are trying to communicate.

You finally wake up from the dream and hear a voice speaking to you, Link walks over to a sort of pillar and on it is a thing that looks like a phone called a Sheikah Slate. Once you get out of the sort of cave you woke up in it’s a completely free world, you can go anywhere you want to and complete as many quests as you can find. The main quest you have before being able to leave the Great Plateau you must find all four shrines in the area to gain a paraglider from a man who turns out to be the King of Hyrule’s spirit. The main focus of the game is to kill Calamity Ganon, but first you must “take over
