What superpowers would i have?

 It's very hard to deiced on what superpower i would want since theirs about 100,000 of them but my top 3 superpowers are pretty strong. Here is 3 superpowers i would have!

No.1 Telekinesis. Telekinesis is like super human strength that has the ability to move objects at a distance by mental power or the non-physical means.Why would i have this power & What would i do with it. Why would i have this power is a very hard decision to make because you could either use it for good or for bad. But it actual holds great power and strength, What i would do with it is keep it a secret to everyone and trusted people as well.

No.2 Immortality. Immortality is just eternal life. What Immortality means is that you can for a very long time is humanly impossible to Immortality,but if i did have this super power i would be doing risky things to save people.

.3 To control all 4 elements: To control every 4 elements would be a dream, Controlling all 4 elements could lead to chaos but i would have this super power because of how strong it is i would use this for good thing not bad.

Holiday-Recount!

This is a small recount of happen in the Holidays!

 It was on a really hot day, When we went for a walk. But relaxing too. We also almost got lost from my direction but we managed to get there.

It was a nice calm one. But we each had to take turns on a bike which was really fun since there were lots of down hills. There were no adults there to look after us but it was close from home and we had our 13 yr brother which was good enough i guess. 

When we reached the park we all were excited and keen to play on the Playground, There was no one there except for a lady and her little son. There were so many things to do like Seesaw, slides, Rope climbing and more but the thing that caught my attention was a tall green pole that was really fat, it had smaller poles sticking out of it and also tires attached to it so we can sit on it. We had to push it to move which was kinda difficult to do but i had company with me so we basically took turns pushing it which was very fun.

We stayed on there for a very long time until we got bored. We all decided to do a challenge which was swing jumping, Well that's what we call it. If you still don't know what i mean well here's an explanation. It's when you swing so high in the air and land the farest but i unfounturly lost and came last which was not very fun. But I managed.   

But in the end we all had fun playing on the playground and running around. We got home and got all the bark out of our shoes and hair, Then had a shower and relaxed the rest of the day!
