It was another bitterly cold and frosty December night in the North Pole. A frozen blanket of snow lay deep and crisp on the ground. Jack Frost had visited every home and had etched magnificent spiral patterns into every glass window. It really was the harshest weather that anyone could ever remember and it was two days until Christmas!
Santa Claus was extremely busy adding the finishing touches to his Christmas preparations. He was shortly about to deliver thousands of wonderful Christmas presents to many excited children from all over the world. His elves were beginning to load masses of shiny gifts onto his sleigh and his brave reindeer were practicing their final manoeuvres before the big day. Everything was coming together nicely; Santa was very pleased with his team.
The big day was already here. It was the 24th December! Now, everyone could hear children singing the carols in every neighborhood. They were all so excited! "Santa will bring us gifts!" said a kid to his friend. "I don't think so…I had a fight with my mother yesterday, I'm not sure if I'll get a present this year" said the other one.
Things weren't that nice in Santa's house. The elves were paniced! "Oh, no!", "Help us someone!", "What are we going to do now?"… They couldn't believe in their eyes! Rudolph had just broken his leg, while playing hide-and-seek with Machi and Danica, some other of Santa's reindeer!! He couldn't ride the sleigh, now! "Ho ho ho… what happened here?" santa cried. "Santa! Santa! Come here, quickly!!" an elf shouted. Santa started running towards Rudolph. "Oh, no! Now, how are we going to give children their Christmas presents we've been preparing so long? Dorina! Take Rudolph to the nearest hospital! Take Aspasia with you, too! Make sure he will be okay." Santa said, totally shocked.
While Dorina and Aspasia were on their way to the "North Pole's Frozen Hospital", Efi, Santa's best elf, realized that there were 1O presents missing!! "You must be kidding me!" Santa Claus whispered. He couldn't believe what was happening!! Nothing was okay! Rudolph broke his leg, there were many presents missing… At night they had to deliver the presents to every children all over the world. They would get disappointed if their Christmas Tree was empty on Christmas Day!
Santa decided to find the thief. He wore his dark, detective-suit and his lucky hat and went out of his house. "Bill and George, come with me. I need you in this mission…" he said. Bill and George felt so proud of themselves! "We are important! Yey!!!" they shouted. "Shh… Miss Claus is sleeping! We should do this silently. Come here now, without singing this time". They were ready to catch the thief!
Before they start the search, Bill saw something near an ice berg. “Can you see thos footprints over there?” he said, “I think they will bring us to the thief!”. “You’re right! Let’s do this!!” George cried and they all followed the footprints.
At the same time, Rudolph was at the hospital. The “North Pole’s Frozen Hospital”. Dorina and Aspasia were sitting at the… “standby room” waiting for Rudolph to bandage his injury. “He is okay for now, but we’re not sure at all if he can fly tonight.” a nurse said, quite sad.
The cold wind was howling and almost everything was frozen. Santa, George and Bill were on their way to the thief, when, all out of a sudden, it started to rain! The footprints were slowly disappearing from the ground and it was extremely difficult to see them now. Luckily, the footprints stopped in front of an enormous, wooden door. Bill said that they should knock the door to ask the housekeeper if he/she saw someone running in Santa’s lucky costume, holding loads of presents. Unfortunately, George was afraid to knock the door, because he was afraid of haunted houses and ghosts. So, they had no choice. Santa knocked nervously the door. A woman, who looked like a witch though, opened the enormous, wooden door grinning. “Hello! What are you looking for?” she muttered. “Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!! You see, someone stole about ten gifts from my sack! Now, ten children will get very disappointed finding nothing down their wonderful Christmas trees! Have you seen anyone running this way, holding colorful-covered gifts in my lucky costume?” Santa asked the woman. She kept smiling for a while, but in just a few seconds she apologized her terrible mistake. “Ohh.. I’m so sorry! I did it.. I saw your elves preparing some fantastic ballet shoes for Aspasia and a new, awesome tennis racket for Efi that I couldn’t believe in my eyes! I thought it would be alright, as your elves can make new presents easily, but I didn’t know it takes so much time! Now I wasn’t able to bring these back, you would shout to me. It’s okay, take your gifts back. As for your lucky costume, here it is. I’m sorry I did it! I will never do this again, I promise!” said the witch close to tears. Santa took his stuff back, smiled at her and asked her her name. “Maria! My name is Maria and I’d love to take my Christmas present this year… Please!” she replied while she was sweeping her tears.
They agreed for Maria’s Christmas present in no time and started running back home to check everything else they needed-if the sleigh was well painted, if the gifts were all covered with colorful paper and the most important-if Rudolph was able to fly!
At home, miss Claus was still sleeping and all the elves were watching their favorite Christmas movie, “Rudolph Get Well Soon!”. “Hey! We have no time for movies now! Efi! Count the presents for last time. Evaggelia! Check if the sleigh is still wet or able to fly and Lena! Oh.. where is Lena?” Santa cried. “Here I am! Sorry!!” she replied, with her mouth full of miss Claus chocolate cookies. “I want you to call Dorina and Aspasia and ask them about Rudolph. Will he fly tonight, or we will use the flying carpet instead of reindeers?” said Santa.
Santa felt his heart pounding fast. Aspasia and Dorina had forgotten their mobile phones at home! Oh, no! Fortunately, in a couple of minutes his elves came back with Rudolph. He was better now and the nurse said that he could fly tonight but not any other time these days, until his leg is fine. He felt so proud of his team! The sleigh was dry, there were no presents missing and Rudolph would fly all over the world for one more time. In other words, they were ready for the best delivering ever!
This year, everyone took his Christmas gift on-time. Every house was full of smiley faces and laughs. This was the best Christmas in history!

The moment Jane opened the car's door, she realized she had made a terrible mistake. She was still wearing her slippers!
Jane went out of Mark's car totally embarrassed. Bright morning sunshine shone into the church. She nervously walked next to Susan. She looked gorgeous! Her wedding dress was white, like those small crystals she was gazing at in the sky when it snowed. Her sandals fitted her perfectly. She was like a princess, without a crown. "Jane!" Susan shouted. "Come here! I've been for you!". "Sorry I'm late, I had a problem with.." said Jane. But she didn't finish her sentence because of Susan's interruption. "It's okay, don't worry. Have to go now, sorry. By the way, you look beautiful!". Jane's face turned beet red with embarrassment. "Thanks.." she whispered. The only thing she wanted was to dig herself a hole and hide in it. Fortunately, Susan didn't see her feet.
Right before the wedding started, Ann, one of the bridesmaids, saw Jane's cute slippers. "Jane!", she cried, "Come with me". Jane was shocked. She followed Ann to her car, where she gave her a pair of sandals. "Wear them quickly!" said Ann.
Although Jane's toes hurt for a month-because of the two sizes smaller sandals, she enjoyed the wedding so much, she nearly forgot about her slippers incident!

Thanksgiving day is a national holiday celebrated primarily in the United States and Canada as a day of giving thanks for the blessing of the harvest and of the preceding year. It is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November in the United States and on the second Monday of October in Canada. Several other places around the world observe similar celebrations. Thanksgiving has its historical roots in religious and cultural traditions, and has long been celebrated in a secular manner as well.
Also, on Thanksgiving day, we usually eat turkey, corn, carrots, cranberry, stuffing, mashed potatoes, biscuits, yams or pumpkin pie. So, here is a song about what we eat on Thanksgiving :
And the last video I'm going to show you is my class's favourite Thanksigiving song :
Great to hear from you!! It's my pleasure to help you help you with your school project.
First of all, in my school the sport we play most this term is volleyball. My school has got a gigantic basketball court, where we put a volleyball net when we play matches. We all enjoy playing volleyball!! Our PE teacher has already shown us how to play correctly and safely, so we are all ready to try to win each other!!
You also would like to know how students benefit from all these. Well, in my opinion I think there are no disadvantages of playing volleyball or any other sport. You feel fresh and active. Team sports make you more sociable and most times more competitive. Also, you don't just benefit physically. If you play sports, you do better at all the other school subjects and you increase your self-discipline. So, why not playing volleyball for less than thirty minutes to benefit yourself so much without any special try??
I hope this helps. If you have any more questions, drop me a line!!
The Visitors Are.. !! Thank you for being one of them!!
About Me :
Hey everyone! It's me, Zeta, and here are few things you probably want to know about me.
I go to the Lower Class of the English School "YES!". I play the piano for about 4-5 years and I think it is the most relaxing and enjoyable thing someone can do in their free time. I listen to pop-rock and punk-rock music. My favourite bands are 5 Seconds of Summer (which I like since May '15) and Twenty One Pilots (which I've been listening to since December '15), although I like many more bands, for example Arctic Monkeys. Also, I truly love Halsey, Troye Sivan and Melanie Martinez. I also love watching videos on YouTube. My favourite YouTubers are Issa (twaimz), Colleen (colliscool), Ellena (ellenawhat), Connor (ConnorFranta), Jack (jacksepticeye) and last but not least Felix (PewDiePie). My favourite food is obviously pizza. I absolutely hate waking up at 7pm in the morning - let's be honest, who doesn't? My best friends are Efi and Dorina. In my blog, I try to post a variety of things for you to find what you like reading most and focus on that! Check out the Categories below and start reading my posts (I post new as soon as I can)!
PS. Thank you all so much for 56k visitings! I really appreciate every single one of them, you guys are the best!!
