Dream history lands


 Million years ago, Earth was made with ancient elements like: atmosphere, forces, surfaces, water, ocean, etc. Magma from the mental core went out and become some surfaces of the earth; for example, it became volcanoes. Later, some simple plants were created. That day, the lands were far away from each other. After thousands of years, more living organisms appeared on the earth. Next, a new specy appeared. We call them human. They were human with wings. There were 4 races. Human with Butterflies’ wings, human with Bats’ wings, human with Dragons’ wings and the last one is human with swans’ wings. Over time, the lands moved closer to others lands. They found the others races, except them, also live on the earth. Because of their symbols races, so they fought and had a world war. The war spent a long time, seemed it was unending. The people lived in those countries had to move away from their hometown, to be saved in war. Many beautiful races were destroyed. The war continued happening with lots of people died.
Then, each race became smarter, more universal and richer. They business with others but the war still happen. There development wasn’t good enough. Some years later, they grew up than before. They could build buildings, created weapons, came to a new age of technology and science but it develops tentatively.
One day, in 3000 A.D, a couple of friends, who were quarter-blood stream between 4 races. They helped to stop the war that was spent hundred centuries, they were elected to be presidents. They divided into 2 countries. One of them called “PL”, which means “Peaceful Land”; the other called “UN”, means “United Nations”. They connected and improved countries’ relationship, so it’s always good. The independence of them began.

New knowledge (part 1)

    Thanks to these presentations of everyone, I got some information from them, exactly from buddhists and some more from the others.
    First of all, there are some ways to keep luckiness, one of them is we don't broom the house on 3 first days of new year, trash that day is very important. I haven't knew so far. And the other way is we don't wash hair on 3 days, too?!? I don't know why I still do that, so I washed my hair mysteriously and I asked mom why do we do that. My mom said this is the most time to keep intelligent stay in your brain and if you wash hair so the knowledge will go away. And especially, in 3 days of new year, you don't being insulted if you don't want to be insulted in the year, and you don't being sick if you want to be sick all year as well.
    Secondly, I've knew lots of my friends' families. some members of their family are Chinese like my grandparents, so they can speak Chinese but not at all, like me, somebody can't speak Chinese. And I had time to see the family bible as well as religion, tourism trips and photos of their families' members.
    Finally, I knew more about cultures, histories and lifestyles about my friends
