Being the eldest daughter in the family

Being the eldest daughter in the family for two little sister is hard and also not to mention diffucult. When my sister ask me to do things that I dont want to do, they will ask mum to scold me so that I can do what they want just because they are the youngest. Other than that, they always follow what I do maybe because I am the oldest so they think they can follow but sometimes if they get in trouble my name is always the first one that they will mention.

But now as I grow older, I tend to think that having a little sister is good. Last time when I was young I was always the one who get in trouble because of them. They always follow me where ever I go, what I do and what I say so it is very irratating. But now, I dont think as them my enemy but my sister. I start taking care of them and give them what they want. Eventhough they sometimes dont listen to what I say and I get mad but I have to understand that when I was young and my brother was the eldest he also feel the same thing do so I have to be patience on them.

As time flies by and by I start thinking that this is my responsibility for taking care of them and loving them. Even though sometimes I yell at them and say that I hate them but in the real life I love them. If I look back on having a little sister it is a blessing for me bacause some people only have one daughter or one son. So it good that I have a sister who I can talk with and play with sometimes when I am alone. They will always be my little sister eventhough we are all grow up and every minute I tried to be there for them as my brother was there for me.

Whales

Whale is the common name for marine mammals of the order Cetacea. The term whale is sometimes used to refer to all cetaceans, but in more common English usage it generally excludes the members of the Delphinoidea superfamily, such as dolphins and porpoises.

These smaller species belong to the suborder Odontoceti (toothed whales), which also includes the sperm whale, killer whale, pilot whale, and beluga whale. The other suborder of cetaceans, Mysticeti (baleen whales), includes the blue whale, which is the largest animal known to have ever existed, the humpback whale, and many other animals that feed by straining seawater through long strips of baleen that they have in the place of teeth, and from which they get their name.

For centuries, whales have been hunted for meat and as a source of raw materials. By the middle of the 20th century, however, industrial whaling had left many species seriously endangered, and whaling was ended in all but a few countries. Several organizations have been founded to try to eliminate hunting of whales and other threats to whales' survival.

Dolphin

I like Dolphin every since I can remember. I like the way they swim and jump on the sea. When they swim, they move thier fins around. Dolphin Dolphins are marine mammals that are closely related to whales and porpoises.

There are almost forty species of dolphin in seventeen genera. They vary in size from 1.2 m (4 ft) and 40 kg (90 lb) (Maui's Dolphin), up to 9.5 m (30 ft) and 10 tonnes (9.8 LT; 11 ST) (the Orca or Killer Whale). They are found worldwide, mostly in the shallower seas of the continental shelves, and are carnivores, mostly eating fish and squid.

The family Delphinidae is the largest in the Cetacean order, and relatively recent: dolphins evolved about ten million years ago, during the Miocene. Dolphins are among the most intelligent animals and their often friendly appearance and seemingly playful attitude have made them popular in human culture.

My Hero

The Person I admire the most is my dear daddy that I love the most. My daddy is always the person that I can trusted and talk with. I can tell him everything including my personal things.He is a very loving person. He loved my sister, my brother and I very much and he does not show favouritism. For him, we all are his treasure and he treat us like an adult.

My dad is a kind person and also he is also my listening ear when I argue with my mum last time. When I got any problem, he is the person that I will tell. I usually tell him about everything for instance my life, what happen at school, what did I do today, and my personal things.

Besides that he is very helpful in my homework. When I was young he will always take his time to teach me the subjects that I dont know untill now he still do the samething with me eventhough I am in college. Sometimes when my mum is very busy at home or at work, my dad is a very good cook better than my mum. Last time he was a chef at the hotel before he married my mum. He sometimes teach me to cook when both of us are free. So that time we will play and talk about so many things that I cant even image.

The most I like about my dad is he got more patience than my mum. When my sister fight my dad will only talk to them calmly but for mum she will scream. Sometimes I am a very subborn girl just like my mum so when I do wrong he wont punish me but he will advice me.

I hope oneday I will find a husband like my dad. Eventhough my dad is not like other daddies in the world but he is always there for me when I fall. He is not a big rock star but for me he is more than a rock star, he is my hero when I am in trouble and every second just loving me for who I am.

My Life when I was at Cebu

      When i was at Cebu,and i was 4yrs my dad was being transfer there because he got an offer from shang-ri la hotel at cebu. At first we have a rough time going through Cebu but sooner or later it was getting better. I still can remember the first day I went to the school name CIA meaning Cebu International Adacemy School. At first I enter kindergarden class, I was so nervous and scared until I have to ask my mum to stay with me untill I finish class. She accompany me the first day at school. I meet new friends along the way and get to know the place very well so from that day I dont need my mummy to accompany me at school at anymore.
Every recess it is from 12 o'clock to 1 o'clock, my bro, Ben and I will sit together eventhough we have our own friends but we cannot trust them too much. So thats why brother always have my back and I have his back. We protected one another every time when we were at school. We finish at school at around 4 o;clock so our driver, Jojo will pick us up from school. At cebu, the traffic there is horrible!..There is always traffic jam every way you go.

So, we will reach home around 6 o'clock. The distance from our school and our house is very far because our house is next to the sea and infront of the sea from our backyard is the hotel shangri-la hotel. It was so gorgoues and fantastic!!..Every celebration there will be fireworks and when i see it, it straight away bring joy to my face.

I will never forget that moment until now. Eventhough I was being transfered here in Sabah because my dad got a job as the hotel management in Karambunai Hotel but one day I will go back there where my house was and visit all my friend that was in Cebu. I will never forget the places that I go when I was young and I still hope that I will someday recall everything back when I am at cebu or when I grow old.

Birds

Birds (class Aves) are winged, bipedal, endothermic (warm-blooded), vertebrate animals that lay eggs. There are around 10,000 living species, making them the most numerous tetrapod vertebrates. They inhabit ecosystems across the globe, from the Arctic to the Antarctic. Birds range in size from the 5 cm (2 in) Bee Hummingbird to the 3 m (10 ft) Ostrich. The fossil record indicates that birds evolved from theropod dinosaurs during the Jurassic period, around 150–200 Ma (million years ago), and the earliest known bird is the Late Jurassic Archaeopteryx, c 150–145 Ma.
Modern birds are characterised by feathers, a beak with no teeth, the laying of hard-shelled eggs, a high metabolic rate, a four-chambered heart, and a lightweight but strong skeleton. All birds have forelimbs modified as wings and most can fly, with some exceptions including ratites, penguins, and a number of diverse endemic island species. Birds also have unique digestive and respiratory systems that are highly adapted for flight.

Many species undertake long distance annual migrations, and many more perform shorter irregular movements. Birds are social; they communicate using visual signals and through calls and songs, and participate in social behaviours including cooperative breeding and hunting, flocking, and mobbing of predators. The vast majority of bird species are socially monogamous, usually for one breeding season at a time, sometimes for years, but rarely for life.

Other species have breeding systems that are polygynous ("many females") or, rarely, polyandrous ("many males"). Eggs are usually laid in a nest and incubated by the parents. Most birds have an extended period of parental care after hatching

JAGUAR

Jaguar is the largest New World carnivore of the cat cat, name applied broadly to the carnivorous mammals constituting the family Felidae, and specifically to the domestic cat, Felis catus. The great roaring cats, the lion , tiger , and leopard are anatomically very similar to one another and constitute the Panthera onca.

 They have deep yellow or tawny coats marked with black rings, or rosettes, and spots. In all individuals at least some of the rings surround spots. This feature distinguishes the jaguar from the Old World leopard leopard, large carnivore of the cat family, Panthera pardus, widely distributed in Africa and Asia. It is commonly yellow, buff, or gray, patterned with black spots and rings.

The jaguar is also shorter-limbed and stockier than the leopard. An adult male jaguar is up to 7 ft (2.2 m) long, including the 2 1-2-ft (76-cm) tail, stands about 2 1-2 ft (76 cm) high at the shoulder and weighs about 200 lb (90 kg). Although the jaguar is classified with the big cats, which can roar, it does not seem to do so, a characteristic which it shares with the snow and clouded leopards.


Jaguars are very adaptable animals. They are primarily forest dwellers but may be found on the South American pampas, or even in rocky semidesert areas of Mexico and the United States. In some regions they live an almost entirely arboreal existence for months at a time when the forest floor is flooded. They are also good swimmers and sometimes catch fish for food. Jaguars hunt deer, agouti, capybara, and especially peccaries. They are retiring animals, not particularly inclined to attack people, but a jaguar may launch an attack or even stalk a human being if threatened. In Mexico the jaguar is known as el tigre, "the tiger," although true tigers are found only in Asia.

Horses

The horse  is a hoofed mammal, a subspecies of one of seven extant species of the family Equidae. The horse has evolved over the past 45 to 55 million years from a small multi-toed creature into the large, single-toed animal of today. Although most horses today are domesticated, there are still endangered populations of the Przewalski's Horse, the only remaining true wild horses.
Their anatomy enables them to make use of speed to escape predators and they have a well-developed sense of balance and a strong fight-or-flight instinct. Related to this need to flee from predators in the wild is an unusual trait: horses are able to sleep both standing up and lying down. Female horses, called mares, carry their young for approximately 11 months, and a young horse, called a foal, can stand and run shortly following birth. Most domesticated horses begin training under saddle or in harness between the ages of two and four. They reach full adult development by age five, and have an average lifespan of between 25 and 30 years.

Horse breeds are loosely divided into three categories based on general temperament: spirited "hot bloods" with speed and endurance; "cold bloods", such as draft horses and some ponies, suitable for slow, heavy work; and "warmbloods", developed from crosses between hot bloods and cold bloods, often focusing on creating breeds for specific riding purposes, particularly in Europe.
Horses and humans interact in many ways, not only in a wide variety of sport competitions and non-competitive recreational pursuits, but also in working activities including police work, agriculture, entertainment, assisted learning and therapy. Many products are derived from horses, including meat, milk, hide, hair, bone, and pharmaceuticals extracted from the urine of pregnant mares. Humans provide domesticated horses with food, water and shelter, as well as attention from specialists such as veterinarians and farriers.

Narval

The narwhal (Monodon monoceros) is a medium-sized toothed whale that lives year-round in the Arctic. One of two species of whale in the Monodontidae family, along with the Beluga whale, the narwhal males are distinguished by a characteristic long, straight, helical tusk extending from their upper left jaw. Found primarily in Canadian Arctic and Greenlandic waters rarely south of 65°N latitude, the narwhal is a uniquely specialized Arctic predator.

In the winter, it feeds on benthic prey, mostly flatfish, at depths of up to 1500 m under dense pack ice. Narwhal have been harvested for over a thousand years by Inuit people in Northern Canada and Greenland for meat and ivory and a regulated subsistence hunt continues to this day. While populations appear stable, the narwhal has been deemed particularly vulnerable to climate change due to a narrow geographical range and specialized diet.

The narwhal was one of the many species originally described by Linnaeus in his Systema Naturae.This is based on the Old Norse word nár, meaning "corpse", in reference to the animal's greyish, mottled pigmentation, like that of a drowned sailor. The scientific name, Monodon monoceros, is derived from Greek: "one-tooth one-horn".

Elephant

Elephants are large land mammals in two genera of the family Elephantidae: Elephas and Loxodonta. Three species of elephant are living today: the African Bush Elephant, the African Forest Elephant and the Asian Elephant (also known as the Indian Elephant). All other species and genera of Elephantidae are extinct, some since the last ice age: dwarf forms of mammoths may have survived as late as 2,000 BC.Elephants and other Elephantidae were once classified with other thick-skinned animals in a now invalid order, Pachydermata.

Elephants are the largest land animals now living. The elephant's gestation period is 22 months, the longest of any land animal. At birth it is common for an elephant calf to weigh 120 kilograms (260 lb). They typically live for 50 to 70 years, but the oldest recorded elephant lived for 82 years.The largest elephant ever recorded was shot in Angola in 1956. This male weighed about 12,000 kilograms (26,000 lb), with a shoulder height of 4.2 metres (14 ft), a metre (yard) taller than the average male African elephant.The smallest elephants, about the size of a calf or a large pig, were a prehistoric species that lived on the island of Crete during the Pleistocene epoch.

The elephant has appeared in cultures across the world. They are a symbol of wisdom in Asian cultures and are famed for their memory and intelligence, where they are thought to be on par with cetaceans and hominids.Aristotle once said the elephant was "the beast which passeth all others in wit and mind". The word "elephant" has its origins in the Greek, meaning "ivory" or "elephant'.
