Rewrite this Into a descriptive paragraph After that night I was at awe at the intelligence of the little creatures, and I was so curious and I was eager to find out more. For many months I had researched the ways of the betta fish and so many other kinds of fish. I became an expert on the care of a betta and I knew everything I needed to know. I had convinced my parents to let me have my very own fish, and for Christmas, I had received a ten-gallon tank. I was overjoyed and had immediately started thinking of names for my fish and which plants I would want. (DONT WORRY THIS IS FOR FUN)

That night when the sky was dark and the moon had set in, there were these creatures. They made me feel at awe beacause of how intelligent the small creatures are. I was also very curios and eager to explore more about these creatures and learn more about them. For many months I had looked into the ways of the betta fish and so many other types of fish that live among out world. I became an expert on this topic and about the care of a betta fish. I knew everything I as a person needed to know about them. I had convinced my parents to let me own my own fish, since I already knew everything about them. On christmas I ended up recieving a ten-gallon tank as a gift. I was so overjoyed about my christmas gift that I had immediately started thinking of names for my new fish. I was even started to think about plants that I wanted to put in my new fish tank.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
