When I was about eight years old in Australia I used too play a sport by myself that I like too call "Wave Diving". It's a fun game really but it's dangerous. You find a good beach and then you find the biggest wave you can. When it's coming towards you dont run away because you WILL get toppled by the wave and it is not a good feeling. But for me its very scary when you see a seven or ten foot high wave coming at you.
But the real reason of my courage of this that one day my family and I went too a beach to have fun and relax. When I saw the size of most of the waves there... my jaws dropped in amazement. I ran right into the ocean not caring how cold it was, next I jumped into the first wave that came my way. The water was cold on my face. And then I rubbed the water out of my eyes and then got ready for the next wave. But my eyes were widened when I saw the wave that was coming towards me. I was frozen because it was at least nine feet high at first then when it got nearer it was at least eleven feet high.
I tried to move but I was too scared. But the wave was too close now. I didn't know what to do. Then it was like my body moved on my own. I dove smack dab right in the middle of the monster wave. But I didn't put enough strength too go all the way through the wave. It pushed me back and I landed on the sea floor. But I wasn't hurt at all... Maybe a little sore but nothing wrong with me. "I did it", "I took on the monster wave".

B.C Paintings
Well I bet your wandering why did the Homo Sapiens paint? How did they survive? Why do they do all these things? Well Im going to answer one of these questions. Why and what did they paint.
One of the paintings me and my partner Ayaka looked at was a painting called "Cave Painting of Shapes and handprints". The painting has handprints and designs all over it. It looks as if there are Does running in a group around the painting. There are some odd looking shape, like one that is in the shape of a cat. Did they have pet cats then? They're handprints are all over the wall. There are big ones and small ones. Is this how they signed there artwork? Or did small children just paint for fun? A question to be answered. There're is also a big circle with more circles inside of it getting smaller. It seems to be taking the shape of a target. Well this is enough for the first painting so I will talk about a second now.
This one isn't really a painting. It's more of a sculptures if you ask me. This one is called Clay sculptures. Scientists found small foot prints in front of the clay sculptures and assumed that they took place in rituals. They other thing is the carving is of a bison. And it seemed that the lower bison was more detailed on the one above it.
