Atlantis

A picture of what Atlantis could look like - on the left

A mythical island that has been lost undersea for 424 years! wow that is a lot of years, but Atlantis was once ruled by a powerful king named Atlas. Atlas was made the rightful king of the entire island and ocean, the sea was called The Atlantic Ocean in his honor.

The "true" story of Atlantis
The founders of Atlantis were half god and half human. They created a Utopian civilization that was  made up of concentric islands separated by wide moats and linked by a canal that penetrated to the center. The lush islands contained gold, silver, and other precious metals and supported an abundance of rare, exotic wildlife. There was a great capital city on the central island.

My Opinion
I believe in a lot of things and I believe in Atlantis, because all you have to do is believe in the wildest things like lost islands or a strange universe to make it become a reality.

COVID 19: Using Blood Infusions To Help Find A Cure

Blood Infusion Definition 
Scientist have been working very hard to find a cure for the Coronavirus. They have been working on a really genius idea that could work but at the same time could go very wrong, they have been working on blood infusions. Hospitals around the United States and caregivers are using a century year old convalescent plasma therapy treatment — siphoning blood from survivors and re infusing it into the sick. That just means the nurse or doctor will draw out blood from the recovered patient and test it out with the right mixture of medicine until they have the perfect cure, then they will infuse it into the sick person.
“I think of it as a bridge, until we can develop a vaccine or pharmaceutical treatment that can be shown to be safe, effective, and can be produced in mass quantities” says Elliott Bennett-Guerrero, who is studying the use of this convalescent plasma in COVID-19 patients at Stony Brook Medicine.

2 Subjects

Today I wanted to do something different, I wanted to talk about my 2 favorite subjects "Music and Art".  Lets start.

Music 
Have you ever listened to a piece of music and thought to yourself that you are greater that anything or maybe when you were sad and that single note and word made you think that it doesn't matter what  other people think of you it only matters what you think of yourself. Music can be entertaining and good but it can also be very deep, by that I mean some songs can be very releatable. Music is something that a lot of people can enjoy even if it is Jazz, Hip Hop, Classical music or Techno. My favorite thing about music is, it is very relaxing and it is something that I can enjoy.


Art
Art has a way of getting you to like it but then hate it. A lot of artist like Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo were famous for there pieces of art that probably took months to make, it also  has been seen by millions of people. I like art because it is calming and is fun to make.

Remember to stay updated and tell me your favorite subjects in the comments.
