movies are better than books

personally i think that  movies are better than books because i am a person that likes to get lost in a world that i can see on the screen in front of me. i dont just say that because i cant read i say that because i feel as though books take a whole page to explain 10 seconds in a movie and when reading a book a lot of things that you could see in a movie are left for your imagination to visualise which i think can sometimes give you the wrong perspective of a story.

so lets start by saying books are good and you can understand the emotions that a character is feeling  but, i think that when watching a movie there are a lot more ways that the director can connect us emotionally with a character. weather it's the use of camera angles, lighting or the weather in the scene, i believe than these aspects of film can allow us to connect more deeply with a character and really allow us to get a scene of the pain sorrow or happiness that a character is feeling. but on the other hand when reading with a book the author can only enhance the emotional connection by using different writing skills, and i feel like its better to see how sad or happy a character is rather then just reading "bob was walking in his room and heard a loud bang he went out side to check what it was, only to see his father laying on the front lawn lifeless". now that does give you a picture of what is happening but in a movie the director might use different camera angles and then maybe "bob" will have flash backs of past memories with his dad. There is a lot more i could say about this one aspect of my argument but i think you get the point now.

ok lets jump ships this time and instead of throwing shade at books lets talk about something that i believe is a thing that books can do better than movies. Whats this you might ask? well its the factor of the time limit of movies, see in a movie they have to fit a whole story into a 2 hour movie, SO some characters get left out of the movies. 
ok so for this ill use the harry potter series as my example, because there a lot of charterers that are in the books but not in the movies or, they are in the movies but their backstory is left out. so some characters from the harry potter books that done things that changed the plot such as dobby the house elf or the gaunt family (Voldemort's parents and grandparents)  went included and for me i read the books before i got in to the movies and watched the over and over. and in the last year i have realised that the movies have taken things done by other characters and just changed it so that one of the main characters do it. so i think that was a bit off topic but back to the point, i just think that movies should leave in the characters that are in the books because in gives you more characters to connect with and in my opinion i thing that is a fun thing.

so in conclusion i think that books and movies are both good in there own right. movies for being more visually and emotionally captivating, and books for being able to convey a wider  understanding and filled in version in the story without any plot holes or random characters for plot convenience. so its all about personal opinion in this argument. but any that's me done going on for this topic. so basically i think that movies are better than books, thank you and bye

team sports are better than individual sports

team
*team sports will help you improve skills like teamwork and other social skills.

individual
*With individual sports usually you are part of a club or team anyway so you do have a team but when you go out to compete you are alone.

*Individual sports could help you grow your self confidence because when you win you will be proud of your self for committing to the training and then  going out competing and winning.

*In team sports you have to rely on all of your teammates showing up for training and games. but with individual sports you just have to worry about you and making sure you are going in to your training and putting in the work.
_____________________________________________________________________________
Team sports and individual sports have there obvious differences. so the question is ,are team sports better than individual sports? well i think that they are both good to play i personally enjoy playing almost every sport. but i think that individual sports are the best.

This is because team sports have a lot of factors that all have to go to plan for a team to be successful, but individual sports on the other hand are more about you going in and doing your training, you dont have to rely on other people to be at training. Even though we call sports like tennis ,golf and boxing "individual" sports they aren't really because you have people that you train with at a club or gym, and you probably have coaches as well, but even though you do have a team that help you train you dont need them to be there every training for example with golf you could just go to a driving range and practice there on your own, and with boxing you can go in to the gym and get your training in by hitting the bags or practising things like footwork and other things that you dont need someone else there to help you with.

another reason that i think that individual sports are better than team sports is, in team sports ,especially at younger ages there are people that have been playing for longer or are more talented ,you get the point, there a lot of things that can create a skill gap within your team. This can sometimes lead to the players who are newer and or less talented not being given as much of a big role in the games, but not because they dont want to but because they just get left out. this can lead to some people not continuing to play the sport and quitting.With individual sports there you do have a team but you wont get left out ever because, ill take boxing for example, when you go into a boxing gym you go to the class and you pair up with one of your team mates and you smash out some rounds. The biggest argument is that when you step in to the ring or go onto the court in tennis there is no one else there but you and your opponent so this means that all if you lose you wont have anyone saying mean things to you ,apart from yourself maybe. But usually if you lose your game or fight then you want to go back and fix what you done wrong and then come back better and more prepared than you were the last time you took centre stage.

Overall i think that individual sports are better than team sports i say this because i myself do an individual sport. I compete in mma(mixed martial arts) which is a very physically and mentally hard sport ,i have felt the crazy high of having your hand raised after a fight and finally knowing that all my hard work has payed off and this made me feel really good about myself ,because i know that there was no one better than me in there helping me win ,it was just me but the biggest reason why i think that individual sports are better than team sports is surprisingly, the low of losing, let me explain why losing is in ways a really good thing about individual sports. well when i lost my first fight i had 2 wins before that and that was all good BUT after that loss it felt like a fire was lit inside me and then i never wanted to lose again so it has made me obsessed with bettering my skills and fitness. and that is what i believe could better a lot of people that do sports to give them self something to be proud of ,because they will start seeing changes in their body their mind will be stronger and best of all especially for those people that do sport to give them self a purpose in life is, it give you a sense of self worth and achievement that they have done something

in my opinion i think individual sports are like a drug .BUT ,its a good drug ,its a healthy drug ,its a WORTH IT drug.

south island vs north island

The South Island is better than the North Island

We all know that New Zealand is made up of 2 main islands-the north and south island- so could we tell which one is better to live in ?. well not really because everyone will look at it differently. For example many adults will look for things like cheap housing and places with good jobs that are in high demand. on the other hand younger people might want a place with lots to do with their friends like maybe a fun park or other thrill seeking activities. so obviously its hard to tell if you dont know why let me explain 

ok lets start with the south island, So the strongest  The south island is less populated meaning that buying a house would be cheaper than in the north island. also in bigger cities travel will be quicker in the south island again because the south island has less people.

Also the south island has a huge amount of open land and native bush between each city while  the north island is smaller and the cities are closer together and there is less native bush and open land. so if your like doing things in the outdoors on your own (not with a commercial company) then it is most likely you will find that there are more places for you to go out and do things like hunting,fishing,camping,kayaking, and much more
