The Flinders Ranges On Friday we left the campsite at 9.00 and enjoyed visiting the Railway museum at Peterborough. During this tour (led by a newbie who needed to read her notes), Ben decided on his career move. He was going to obtain a railway and run a steam engine for tourists. Over the next few days this was more solidified in his mind. While walking into Wilpena Pound, there were many animated and detailed discussions on how he could make a request to the South Australian Government…

Pliny was a civil servant of the governor of Bithynia from 111.113 A.D. This letter from Pliny to Trajan is one of the most famous letter in the history of Christianity, written around 112 A.D., which he wrote when he met Christians for the first time in his district and didn’t know how to deal with them. At first, he did few things but, then he thought to write a letter to the Emperor of Trajan describing what he had done so far and asking for the guidance for the coming days. This famous…

of the experiences I am currently still going through. It’s been a crazy emotional roller coaster for me, especially being young and still living at home. When I found out I was pregnant, I didn’t know what to do. I was scared to tell the father of my baby, but more terrified to tell my parents. I had plans for my future that did not involve having a baby. This is my experience of being in school and pregnant. First I thought it was just the flu, but this flu was nothing like I had ever…

Detention he said. I simply asked “why?”. He replied with a stern, touch-too-loud tone of voice and said “don’t argue with me Ms Elizabeth. I will see you after school.” So after debating whether or not to go I decided to show up to this undeserved detention. Usually detention is a class of people and we all just have to sit there and do work or something, but I walked in and I was the only one. Mr Hensley was sitting at the back of the class reading a book titled ‘Lolita’. He knew it was my…

they started a few years ago, I guess that is when they hit their mid-life crisis stage! Every time they came back from one and just hearing about it, made me want to go more and more. So last October, I booked one. Little did I know, what I was in for? Before I booked my cruise, even though I was going with my parents and a bunch of their friends. I didn’t want to go by myself. So finally, I found a friend to come with. This was a friend that I only talked to if I seen her out in public. It was…

1, 1955 was a day that I will not forget. That morning, I had made my way to work as a tailor in Montgomery, Alabama, where I lived. I had been at work for a while before I was headed home. As soon as I got done with work, I started for home to go wait for the city bus to come by and pick me up. The stop I went to be picked picked up was by the Montgomery Fair Department Store where I was working at the time. Eventually the bus came for us passengers, and we got right on. I ended up only having…

and having mexican parents, I was always taken care of. Since I was the only child, my parents were overprotective of me so that I grew up to be a good person. I always thought of this as annoying. I was extremely scared to do bad things, especially in kindergarten. In school I’ve taken various tests ranging from, your learning type, or how smart you are. None of those I felt truly represented who I am. That was until I took the Hexaco test. Sure there were a few things I didn’t agree with, but…

at exactly 7:15 pm. When I describe myself as a white haired, red eyed, and average weight and height 15 year old people think I'm albino. Its actually the opposite I'm a bit tanned in fact. Well after deciding to walk around the park for ten minutes I decided to go home. By then it was 7:10 pm and after walking for another five minutes I took a breather. When I was finished I started walking again then I heard a ''chink!'' And looked down. I dropped my wallet , but when I went to pick it up my…

The changing relationship between early Christians and leaders of the roman empire started with Pliny the young who was a friend of emperor Trajan and an extremely respected roman official. Pliny was placed in power as the governor and one of his duties was to maintain order because the people were complaining that the temples are empty and no one was buying the certain thing for the gods. Pliny was forced to deal with the Christians as criminals. So he came up with the strategy of asking the…
