And I believe that is a cause for celebration! You could have been anything: a dragonfly, a crow, a cauliflower or a Persian carpet, but for some unexplained reason you turned out to be human.And at this point in our time on Earth I think it’s safe to say that we’ve done it. We’ve won.
Humans are the world’s greatest species. We out smart everybody else. We rule Earth!People always say it’s a dog-eat-dog world, but really it’s a humans-eat-everything-else world. We eat pigs, goats, shrimp, potatoes, cauli-flower, insects. This summer I even saw a seven-year-old eat a piece of a pool noodle.

My point is that humans run this planet and I think it’s time we start giving ourselves more credit. When was the last time you congratulated yourself after singing along to your favourite song? That may not seem worthy of praise, but it is surely something that literally no other species on our planet can do.Scientists estimate that there are more than eight million different species on Earth. Going off of those numbers, being the best species is equivalent to being the best person in all of Switzerland. And lots of cool people live in Switzerland! I don’t even have to tell you about all of the coolest Swiss people because you’re human and more than capable of looking random information like that up on that awesome Internet thing only humans understand.
The Pretoria Girls primary recently announced funding towards a new antimatter curriculum for Primary school students in Grades 1-4. the Principal believes that antimatter will be a helpful educational tool for the school’s youngest minds.“Understanding how antimatter works will help advance our students’ education,” Rowena Sheik said. “Getting them familiar with the substance at this age will certainly help them in the future.”Antimatter is identical to known matter but with an opposite charge. When it comes into contact with ordinary matter, they explode into a burst of energy that is more powerful than any substance produced on earth.

We string together a theory that matter is the opposite of antimatter with this propulsion system. |
Sheik, however, said that this new curriculum will lead students towards brighter futures.
“At the end of the day, if you can understand antimatter and string theory, there probably isn’t much that you can’t understand,” she said.
