Have you ever noticed how early in the year we start school and how late we end the year? There is less time for vacations and therefore less time with your friends.

Beauty vs. Ugliness: Early Myths and Classic Fairytales In his novel of the retold myth Till We Have Faces‚ C.S. Lewis takes the roles of beauty and ugliness from fairytales and myths and not only emulates but confutes them.

”Time to Think” many people debated whether or not we should have longer school days. Many people said we should stick to 7(seven) hour school days‚ because if we have longer days then kids can’t be focused and they won’t have a lot of time with family.
