Story filed: time capsules are go 

Hi people, it's Leo here. Recently at school, some of my friends stumbled upon three time capsules buried in the ground just next to some brick stairs in the grassy lunch area at my school. Now, for those who don't know what a time capsule is, it's a metal or concrete box containing items from the present time that it was buried. Some time capsules are buried in special places like the time capsule in the Sydney Town Hall. The three at my school each have a plaque on them saying when they were buried and when they will be opened. The exciting news is that one of them is due to be opened in 2025 and luckily I will still be in school when that happens. Here are the details: first time capsule to be opened on the 27.9.2025, second time capsule is to be opened on 6.12.2038 and the third one is to be opened on the 27.4.2060. I've even got plans on making a family time capsule but have yet to get the message out to all my other relatives. It will happen but not right now. Until all of that happens there's just one thing to do; sit around and wait, soooooo much waiting sooo absolutely boring, sooooo boring.

Until next time
