Becoming aware of what you’re destined to do can be hard some-

times, and it can be even harder when you know what you want ear-

ly in life, -you don’t won’t to take any chances. So today Jasmine

Turner will explain all the details on how to change your destiny.

“YOUR DESTINY “YOUR DESTINY “YOUR DESTINY “YOUR DESTINY

IS IN YOUR IS IN YOUR IS IN YOUR IS IN YOUR

HANDS!” Jasmine HANDS!” Jasmine HANDS!” Jasmine HANDS!” Jasmine

Turner said. Turner said. Turner said. Turner said.

The

third

step is to appreciate who you are and accept

it! There is no point going through life hating

yourself, the more clear you are with yourself

about your feelings the easier it will be to live

your whole life with excitement and ease.

That’s a dream come true!

The last step is to believe and hand out hope.

You know how hard it is to have a bad day. You

know how hard it is to live life to the full, so

stop. Take deep breaths.

Go one step at a time.

That’s how your destiny

will change, look for the

details, help those in

need and believe.

The second step is

to be aware of oth-

ers, help people out

and be honest, most

things to with destiny re-

volve around relation-

ships with your family

and the people you see

often, by helping people

you could change your:

Friends

Popularity

Classroom evaluations

(this makes teachers

easier to talk

to)

Decisions and

time frames

The first step to changing your destiny is to

know what you want to change, by becoming

aware of your status in life as quickly as you can,

will help make goals for yourself and your life,

the most important step in order to change

your destiny.

H ave you ever become curious about

the phenomenon of choices? Has

this curiosity ever lead you wondering in awe of

how your decisions effect your future? By making

‘usual’ decisions you could be changing familiar

achievements into unique choices and transform

your life for the better.

Destiny is what is bound to happen and chance

is like luck, you win some you lose some, today

while interviewing the two girls we stumbled

across this question,

“I believe that chance and destiny is like a psy-

chic, they spend a lot of time working things out

for us so it’s not going to be a whole lot of gibber-

ish” Miriam quoted.

Whilst Amelia quoted,

“I believe it is, if I had of chosen not to do after

school activities I would not have as many things

to do, it would give me more time to do more

things and hang out with my friends more often,

so yeah I believe.”

Miriam also spoke to me about her new dog Opal,

“Getting a dog was a big deal for me; my Mum

made the de-

cision, her

names Opal. I

also have a

cat Mega-

watti.”

Chance and Destiny Chance and Destiny Chance and Destiny Chance and Destiny Is it real?Is it real?Is it real?Is it real?

Jasmine Turner interviews

Miriam Wilkins and Amelia Mazza-

Downie, who changed their

destinies in the most unexpected ways.

Have you ever had a quick gossip about

someone behind their back? A laugh at the

girl with the orange hair, how can that relate

to chance and destiny you ask? EASY! Just im-

agine you had a friend Tina, she had just

moved her from America but you guys go

way back, she used to be really pretty. On

her first day she is wearing a disgusting or-

ange shirt and plaid pants, you and your other

popular friends start making jokes about her

and call her names. It starts to spread. Every

one at the school starts gossiping behind her

back, eventually she finds out you started it

and tells the principal, KARMA MUCH?! You

get expelled and go to an awful school. That

my friend is destiny, and yet it was so easy to

change! “I think that whatever you say can

have a huge impact on your destiny. It (what

you say) can spread very quickly without you

noticing and before you know it you’re in

trouble.

I think that this is chance and destiny because

if this person didn’t make a decision to dob

you wouldn’t have been in the principal’s of-

fice.” Amelia decided.

A tree falls down firmly in the soft

grass. The rain is heavily falling down

but the employees don’t pause. The

tree whispers in the breeze of the oth-

er solitary trees. A man driving a fork-

lift heaves the fallen tree onto a trailer

and they drive off, happy with their

days work. This is how tattslotto be-

gins.

A woman sits impatiently at the com-

puter, hoping that the results will

come through. “I didn’t pay one hun-

dred dollars for nothing,” she mutters

to herself. Her computer screen fades

to black, the lights in her house flicker

from dim yellow, black is surrounding

her. “NOT AGAIN!” She screams,

glancing down at the unopened mail

from 3 weeks ago, she sees a bright

yellow envelope. A disconnection

warning, she didn’t need this now. She

didn’t have the money. Too much

money had gone into her tattslotto.

Money that she didn’t have. Going to

get a glass a water she remembers, the

water was disconnected as well.

Gambling can be a big problem. But is

tattslotto? When people think of addic-

tions gambling is one of the first things

that come up. Tattslotto is less often

mentioned. But could this ‘game’ become a

part time war zone?

When people are addicted to something, the do it

all the time. You could be addicted to anything,

whether it is a sport, smoking, alcohol or even a

type of lolly. The only problem is that becoming ad-

dicted to something is getting more and more com-

mon. Tattslotto is a small sheet of paper with a va-

riety of numbers. You can mark between 7-20 num-

bers on a basic Saturday draw. Once you get your

ticket you need to mark off the numbers that you

want to pick and wait patiently for the lottery draw.

People have debates about whether you can be ad-

dicted to something like the lottery, but its com-

pletely true, because lottery is a type of gambling.

In conclusion lottery can start out as a basic want

and end up in the wrong spot. Gambling may result

in becoming poor at the times you need it most.

History

The history of my list is that I want

something to strive for and it gives my

a reason to do things I normally would-

n’t have been able too. I decided to do

it with my friends so that I’d remem-

ber them forever and we can do some

things together.

How to write the list

Step 1; Gather together some of your

closest friends and brainstorm some

ideas of what you could put

Step 2: Write down as many things as

you can to do before your 21.

Step 3: Tick off the list as you do them!

Yahhh! Your done!

Kate Grant Kate Grant Kate Grant Kate Grant tells us all about her destiny list.

Upon arriving to interview some students of

Wembley’s 6B I surveyed the class on what they

would change about their destiny if they could. The

results were easily changed into a pie chart using

fractions, decimals and percentages ( something

the kids know quite a lot about) and put it into a

pie graph

with the

results.

This was

the final

product.

destined to do?
