That sounds super fun. I'm glad you had a mostly fun time- even if you had to stay in a horrible hotel one night! :)

I am fasting the month. Are u fasting Jennah? Or anyone else! Muslims do. It means no eating or drinking until sunset. Then we have a holiday!

Here's a random trivia question, try not to use the internet to get the answer. What is the name of John Quincy Adam's wife?

p.s. Who here has a fave president? I LOVE FDR.

That's right! I just think that's such a pretty name: Louisa Catherine. How did you know that answer? I'm a big historical freak! :)

I like Abe Lincoln too. Abigail was actually John Adams' wife not John QUINCY Adams' wife. Good guess, though! :)

Hi Flaw! Currently on Youngzine you can earn three badges, Explorer, Commentator and Writer. All badges have four levels: Green, Bronze, Silver and Gold.
Here's how you can earn your badges;
Explorer: For exploring Youngzine like reading articles and watching videos.
Commentator: For putting in comments on articles and videos.
Writer: You can get a writer badge for writing your own articles, which are published under the UWrite section.
And you get points for pretty much the same things as badges.

Hope You Enjoy Youngzine!

we have gotten badges by earning points. to earn points, you can comment, take the weekly quizzes, write an article for youngzine's U Write section, or explore the website. have you noticed that most youngziner's profile pictures have a colored ring around them? (mine is silver) how people get those rings is also by earning badges. (the color of the highest badge you have is the color of the ring.)hope this helps. :)

You can get points by going on youngzine, reading articles, giving comments about them, writing articles for youngzine (on UWrite) and exploring. When you get enough points for something like commentary, then you get a green commentary badge. Then bronze, silver and gold. Hope that helped!

There is another one. There are 3 people BE QUIET, MANNERS, and TROUBLE. So, trouble got lost in a forest and the other 2 went to the police station to report it to the police. BE QUIET: Officer our friend is lost in the woods Officer: What's your name BE QUIET: Be Quiet! Officer: Where are your manners? BE QUIET: Oh, he he's right behind me. Officer: Are you looking for trouble! BE QUIET: Yes! How'd you know his name!

Here's one.

Two employees named Worth and It were fired.

A business man hires them.

When they come he asks them if they are worth it. They said," yes!"

Bur they weren't worth it at all. They're names were worth and it.

As I haven't written an article before, I think I might have got my Writer Badge for putting in lots of corrections for typos in articles. I'm not certain though.
