Something I found difficult - I struggled with making it bad because i like my drawings to be cool and nice
Something I found interesting - was you can do anything with out getting bullied for your drawing.

Iceland effusive eruption
The main person in this article is the Iceland Volcano Effusive eruption and the People of Iceland there have been people who have been there to have a glimpse on what a Volcano looks like in person erupting for a week, Iceland has one of the beautifullest northern lights ever here is a video press on this link .
The key event in this article is The Volcano ( Iceland Effusive Eruption) Has been erupting for one/1 week, non stop. Volcanoes erupt because of density and pressure. The lower density of the magma relative to the surrounding rocks causes it to rise (like air bubbles in syrup.)
The event took place in Iceland - Iceland is located between Northern America and the middle of Europe, Iceland is defined by their landscape with volcanoes, geysers, hot springs and lava fields. Massive glaciers.
The date and time the event/article happened was, The 2010 eruptions of Eyjafjallajökull were a period of volcanic events at Eyjafjallajökull in Iceland which, although relatively small for volcanic eruptions, caused enormous disruption to air travel across western and northern Europe
In 2010 this event/article an Volcano was still active and was still erupting for 1 week in Iceland, it was very strange and beautiful meaning people watched the volcano erupt and all the lava coming down, it looked like free light for the night. I wished I was there to see it, but even If I was there in Europe my mom would probably won’t let me go, because it might burn me, or touch me.
This event took place in Iceland Iceland, a Nordic island nation, is defined by its dramatic landscape with volcanoes, geysers, hot springs and lava fields. Massive glaciers are protected in Vatnajökull and Snæfellsjökull national parks.

Everything was ready now all we had to do was wait for our cousins to arrive, it took them 2- 3 hours to get ready and come. They finally came when they came. I was happy to see, we started to play made up games like someone would have a nerf gun, and there would be a runner, the hunter (the person with the nerf gun) who has to shoot us and if he hits us we have to be a hostage.
I was out of breath, but it was time to sing happy birthday to my aunty, everyone started to surround her, there were about 30 - 32 people there!, I was so squashed. We started to sing happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you… and it kept on going, once that was finished ohh boy, we had food!! The food was so good, it started to get dark and so my cousins left, while my cousin stayed here, my cousin that came from Blenheim stayed at my other cousin's house which was in Sunnynook.
It was about 2:00 o‘ clock in the morning, and it seemed that we had to pack everything away. My cousin was still here as we packed everything away. My cousins and I were playing video games. The time reached 3:00 o’clock and they had to go, my mum said I can go with them and so I did, as we left my baby cousins and stayed with them.
