Laura Pena - Week 12 Reading Journal lyrics

10-28 As a child, Christina Stephens filled her parents' basement with Lego castles and pirate ships. When she put her Lego-building sk**s to work last month making a prosthetic leg out of the children's toy, she became an internet sensation. Stephens, 31, lost her left foot in an accident this winter and decided to combine her clinical expertise as an occupational therapist with her own experience of losing a limb to help others dealing with amputations. 10-29 Sleep is food for the brain. During sleep, important body functions and brain activity occur. Skipping sleep can be harmful — even deadly, particularly if you are behind the wheel.

Sleepiness can make it hard to get along with your family and friends and hurt your scores on school exams, on the court or on the field. 10-30 The city of Atlantis.

Some believe that the city was destroyed by one of the greatest natural disasters known to man, while others believe that it was only Plato's imagination. 10-31 Tarantulas are the heaviest, hairiest, scariest spiders on the planet. They have fangs, claws and barbs. They can regrow body parts and be as big as dinner plates. But there are many people who call these creepy critters a pet or a pa**ion and insist their beauty is worth the risk of a bite.
