NASA - Getting payed to sleep


Getting payed to sleep sounds like a dream job, but there's a catch you have to stay in bed for 70 days. NASA is paying people to lie in bed, You can read a book watch some tv or just lie down but you can't leave the bed. There going to study the effects of weightlessness and they thought the best way to do that was to get peoples feet off the ground.


The project is called bed rest project and volunteers will be placed in tilted beds so there feet are slightly higher than there body. They will then stay there whether going to the toilet or the bathroom. After ten weeks they'll be asked to get out of there bed and do a number of exercises to see how the lack of exercise affect them. Lying down for long periods can cause loss in your muscles. so there testing so see if your muscles get worn out.

Writing sample


It was a very dark night it was halloween the night were all the ghosts would come out and scare people. This boy named tim walking the streets wanting to scare his friends Richard and Clevelyn, he was going to take them to a haunted house just around the corner from his house. So he told them to meet at the house, when they all got to the haunted house they busted the door down and went in and saw blood everywhere even on the roof.

Then suddenly they heard a whisper they heard “Leave now” over and over again but the didn’t know where it was coming from.  They quickly walked to the busted down door but when they got there the door was back up on the hinges and sealed shut so they couldn't get out then they heard another whisper “Run run there coming for you” over and over again then a man covered with blood came running after them. So they ran as fast as they could to any room in the house but the whispers were getting louder and louder and the footsteps were getting louder and louder thats when they found something.

They found a Window that was open and was able to fit everyone threw it to get out before the guy would catch them. So they jumped threw but one of them got stuck it was Richard so they pulled and pulled so he would come out and it worked after they got him out they rang the police to torch the house and everything in it but it was a long time till they would go there again

first day at school


Its my first day at school I was feeling excited but scared at the same time. As I walked into my new class I was feeling nervous of what the kids would think of me so I grabbed hold of my mum and hid behind her. When I looked outside I saw the grass greener than the green trees and the trees taller the the sky tower. So I looked around to see what i could find out about my new school.

When I went back inside to my class I met my teacher miss Green and all my classmates, when my mum left it was time for morning tea. During morning tea I went to find someone to play with on the playground but I couldn't find anyone to play with me but then i found someone so my first day at school was awesome.
