What about becoming a video game creator? Do you think you would like doing that?

It helps when bystanders try to stop the bully instead of encouraging him or her. It sounds like you handled the situation well.

I guess it's a true dream job for many people! Do you know anything about how to get a job doing that or how many people are currently working as game testers? I wonder how much they would get paid. I don't think I would like it, to be honest, because when I start to play a game I will sit there for waaaay too long and my eyes start to get sore and red and then my back starts to hurt and my fingers and wrists begin to hurt. I think for myself I need something more active. Do you play a lot of video games? What is the longest amount of time you've ever played for and which game was it? What if you had to play games you didn't like? Would the job still be good? My mum used to be a youth employment counselor and the job that everyone always said they wanted was video game tester.

I believe she worked somehow in communications. I remember her talking about how young (under 28) most of the people working at the company were. I believe she was 24 or 25. She also mentioned the long hours each week people worked - 60 to 80 hours or more. She eventually quit this job and decided that she was ready to grow up and become a doctor. She now studies for 12 hours or more a day. My oldest step-daughter, Jennifer, once worked for a video game company in Vancouver. I believe she worked somehow in communications.

Yes. We do come across wild animals on the road such as porcupines(pronounced porkypines), deer, moose, muskrats and animals that live in the trees like squirrels and birds. 2. The capitol city of Canada is Ottawa. 3. No and yes it is not always snowy in Canada but we have more winter months than summer months. Also in northern Canada it stays snowy forever 4. Well it is true but it isn't very popular where we live. In northern Canada the Inuit ( pronounced In you it) use snowshoes and live in houses made of snow called igloos. 5. In our school we don't have a ice hockey rink but a recesses there is always a hockey game. In Hafford we have a Communiplex that has an ice rink and our towns team is called the Mustangs. 6. Could you please tell me what sky fileds are because I do not know what they are. 7. Yes Canada has a few famous landmarks and a lot of regular ones. here are some examples. The CN tower, Canada olympic park, West Edmonton mall, Vancouver aquarioum, Montreal olympic stadium, Skylon tower, Pier 21 and H.R. Macmillian Space Centre. 8. Yeswe do have beaches but in Saskatchewan we don't have beaches by oceans. For example is Redberry lake.( It isn't very far from Hafford.) But we also have beaches on the coasts of oceans. 9. The most popular sport in Canada is Hockey but Canada's national sport is La cross. 10. We don't have many major animal problems at our school. The worst we had is a cat or dog. 11. This blog is just for grade sixes. (Like Me!) Our teacher just got this blog this year. 12. No we do not have a big library at our school but we do have one. When we were in like grade 4 we would go to the downtown library which is bigger than the school library. P.S. By the way I could post some pictures of some animals ond landmarks on my blog. Also feel free to ask more questions. I guess I’ll start with number 1
