My speech
Intro
Why are we all so addicted to technology? Well, today I will tell you a whole lot of reasons why we are a little too attached to our devices.
1. Technology can affect our health in horrible ways and give us things like eye-strain,neck-strain or hearing loss. Don’t worry stuff like that only happens when you’ve been online for hours and when the volume is up high on the current device you’re using. Still, if we all do things online for like 9 hours each and every day we will get less exercise and then we will become lazy and unhealthy. Unfortunately sometimes when we buy things online on eBay or TradeMe there are always people who could scam us just to get free money for absolutely nothing!!!and we might get hacked by hackers which is another terrible thing that could happen online.
2. There are bad things about technology but it can still help us in many ways. Whenever we have to wait for a while we can play games on our phones to kill time until you can leave or something like that. Most people have consoles that can be played on at home for entertainment like an Xbox One or handheld ones that can be played anywhere. It also helps very intelligent people develop new kinds of tech that are yet to make.
3.BUT!!!The one main thing about tec is that it helps schools everywhere with their learning at school and their homework. The good thing about this is that teachers don’t have to print homework, they can just check an email or on google classroom. It saves the trees since we then are using less paper and it saves time as well.
4. Even though it’s helpful we need to use less time on our device and just a bit more time doing other offline things. One of the best things to do is to put yourself on a schedule and keep on track for a very long time and have a minimum of 2-3 hours per day.I’m not saying we should abandon our phones and stick to books I mean a little less device time could possibly make us a lot more unaddicted to well technology.
CONCLUSION: In conclusion, tec is a wonderous thing that helps us in loads of ways but at the same time it can be a dangerous place filled with hackers and scammers.
Reflection: This is the speech I made in term 2 about why people are too addicted to technology.

Gillian lee's 4th failed journey up Everest
GILLIAN LEE'S 4th FAILED JOURNEY UP EVEREST
In May Gillian lee, a determined (Australia) mountaineer was trying to achieve his goal by climbing to the top of Mt.Everest.But this Climber didn’t want to use oxygen bottles nor take the easy route and wait in a huge line. So he chose to take the Tibet route on the north side, the much harder route to climb.
At 7600M high, Gill was starting to cough non-stop which caught the Sherpa's attention. They told him to stop and go back to base camp but Gill refused and he just continued to climb. As soon as Gillian's lips turned blue he instantly fainted, so they carried him back to his tent and put him in his sleeping bag while giving him oxygen and hot water bottles. A few hours later they dragged him on a sleeping mat down as far as they could with the help of a group of Chinese rope fixers. When they ran out of snow to pull him on, a group of people with yaks strapped Gill onto one which he described as "an uncomfortable ride". 6 hours later they got back to base camp and waited there until a helicopter arrived to take him to Kathmandu Hospital.
As soon as Gill entered the Hospital his mother Julie Peck was waiting filled with rage, ready to tell him everything he had done wrong. Gill had put others lives in danger and his mum even called him selfish. The BIG question is, will he continue to climb Mt.Everest and fail or has he learned his lesson?

REFLECTION: We had to write about Gillian lee a climber that wanted to climb Everest without oxygen. Please enjoy the quality piece of writing I did about Gill.
