The one good thing I could see was that the water was so shallow where the Narwhal went down that, once I broke clear of the ship, I didn't have far to go to reach the surface. It was long enough, though. By the time I broke the surface, I had almost given up hope, but I found myself in the air and took a huge, gulping gasp. I splashed around, happy just to be alive. That's when the hand reached down and grabbed me. Before I had a chance to think, I had been hauled into a small boat and dumped there like a load of fish. I opened my eyes and was surprised--and happy--to see Jeremy staring down at me. "You made it," he said. I nodded. "Did you get the map?" he asked. I sat up, outraged. "Is that all you can think about?" I demanded. "No. Of course not. But did you get it?" I pulled the map, now waterlogged, from the folds of my shirt and tossed it to the floor of the boat. Jeremy looked visibly relieved. "Are you all right?" he asked. "I--I think so," I said. "What happened to...uh, to Diablo?" I shrugged. "I don't know. I didn't see him." There was a pause. = Podcast = = media type="file" key="Izmah Beliefs.m4v" width="300" height="300" =

= = **Introduction**. Hello, My name is Izmah and i'm 11 years old. I am from Pakistan and I have 1 sister. I am very adventurous and I try to be as kind as can be to people,I love being different and taking risks, i love traveling all over the world and trying new things from everywhere and anything. I have written 3 of my strongest beliefs for you to enjoy.

=
I believe in kindness, treating others the way you want to be, and giving them a chance then maybe they will treat you the same way back. There is a saying 'Kill them with Kindness' if someone is being mean to you then you should be kind to them instead of being rude back, maybe they will change they're perspective of you. Every one deserves atleast a chance you could put yourself in their shoes and try to guess why they were being rude and you could help them. I think fighting with kindness can be better than rudeness. I learned this belief because one of my friends used to be bullied she would always be mean/rude back, then one day i told her to be kind instead she tried it and all her bully problems went away and i noticed that being kind is better. I try to to be kind to everyone and everything I do I believe in being fair and to never hurt anyone without giving them a chance.No one can be soo kind sometimes i am mean but i apologize .This is why I believe in kindness. =====

We should never give up, and think about it before giving up, this is one of my beliefs.If your in a big problem then instead of just giving up we should try.I got this belief when i would come across a hard math question or any question i would just skip it ,i would ever try i would give up,Then I saw some people working on the road they were working in the heat and weren't giving up so I realsed,Why should I.Then i started to try and do the question and the next thing i knew all my homework was perfect. Next time I come across a hard question i always try even in everything i do i dont give up,I try and try even if im wrong at least i tried. This is why we should never give up. === My last belief is that I believe that you shouldn't always be in your comfort zone, sometimes you have to take risks and be different.When your at a restaurant and you keep having the same thing all the time and one day you just try a different one you think its better.So sometimes stepping out of you comfort zone is a good thing.I got this belief from when I was too scared to share my ideas in a group and only talk when spoken too, but when I stepped out of my comfort zone and started talking i noticed that nothing bad happened only good things did, so it made me realize that sometimes taking risks is good, I know sometimes taking risks dosen't look like the best thing to do but you never know what might happen.Now i step out of my comfort zone and take risks it dosen't matter if people think it's weird we should just do it and take risks.This is why you should try and step out of your comfort zone. ===
 * Belief #2 Draft. **
 * Belief #3 Draft. **

And those were my strongest belief for you.As you may have noticed all my beliefs are linked to Self-determination and kindness.Who i am in my life is what my belief have taught me without them i would be someone completely different,my beliefs make up who i am.Thank you for giving your time to listening to my podcast on what i believe in.

Assignment #2 "This I Believe" Essay Review The name of this essay is"Inner Strength from Desperate Times" by Jake Hovenden from Fairbanks,alaska. I chose this eassay because i also believe that people sometimes refuse to give up and they help others no matter what. This belief of Jake Hovenden is that people shpuld never give up.He got this belief because of his step-mother who tried to keep his father alive(from a disease called als) by facing her fear of needles so that her husband would not spend his last days in a hospital,she would stay up all night to make sure he wouldn't suffocate even though she had to go to work early morning, This made Jake Hovenden believe that inner strengths comes in desperate times and we should never give up. = 3 things I believe in. = I believe that there is only one god. It comes from my parents. I believe we should do good things and good will come to you. My parents told me about it. I believe in never losing hope.i learned this on my own, we should never give up hope in ourselves and others.

**INVENTIONS** In my life there are many tools that help me survive, the first one is a cell phone because you were in lots of trouble like being kidnapped or if theres a fire in your house then you could call the police or fire department. also there is cement if there was no cement then we would have weak house which may not withstand huricanes and other natural disasters by having cement we can build strong houses that can withstand natural disasters. Third there is the invention of cars if there were no cars we would have to walk long distances that may kill us and also carry heavy objects. Last of all the invention of flashlights if there were no flashlights and it is a dark night and you couldn't see anything you would mostly probably slip and die. If these helpful tools had not been invented then we would probably have shorter life, so we thank our ancestors
