Longest word in the world?

Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis

Taa -daa!! Trying saying that all in one breath. What does it mean?? Aghm (clearing throat) according to the dictionary it is a lung  disease which is caused by breathing in very fine silica dust. There was another "word" that also popped up when I was searching the topic but i do have doubts about it. I'd LOVE to hear someone saying it , snicker, but try mutter it under your breath here anyway. I shall include it here for laughing sake .

A visit to the moon

A beautiful, astounding lunar eclipse took place last night and,finally, we were in a country that would get a glimpse of the moon. Mother and i planned to stay up until the moon was completely covered, which happened to be at 11:30. I have no trouble staying up for all hours, that's just what kids do, but dad was already snoring on the couch and my eyes were feeling very droopy . Suddenly mom let out a little sigh of excitement and I rushed to the window sticking my face out into the freezing cold blustery winter night. There is was, the moon at it's fullest 1/4 of it was already taken over by a creeping shadow making it look very mystical. I had a sudden desire to rush in to a space ship and go and visit the moon my own self. I couldn't take my eyes of it, I wished it was bigger so I could see it clearer. My glasses aren't fitted for maximum zoomige. Mother wanted to take a few pictures, so did i with my new birthday camera might i add, to post on this blog. So, the coats were shoved on, fluffy hats, itchy scarves, duvet pants, gloves and any other warm materials we had in our cupboards. When i say it's cold, i mean it's cold. Maybe not Arctic cold but cold enough to make your face go numb as soon as to step out of the warmth of the heated house. At that moment, i was quite glad for Korean floor heating. We looked like a couple of weird, weirdos, and we were already strange enough to the Koreans but now we were probably the funniest things they had seen all day. The view of the moon was a little better outside but it was still to far away to marvell at it's complete beauty. I took out the binoculars dad had bought, how convenient, and tried to find the moon. After a full 7 minutes of trying to find the moon through the oversize zooming apparatus, I was ready to give up... but wait there it was, almost completely covered by the waning shadow of the sun. I did not know that much about eclipses, only the information from the websites I had read earlier to get a better understanding of them. I felt quite sad in knowing that this was to be the last elcipse until 2014, thankfully, I will still be alive ( wiping sweat).
  At precisely 11:30 I rushed ,once again, to the window to see the moon covered in a faint red, I sighed and really wished I was an astronaut. But even people wishing to be astronauts have to get some sleep so i wished the moon a good night and settled in the warmth of my sleeping bag.

A poem about a cat

The incredibly fat orange cat,
sat on the lumo pink mat,
he wore a large blue top hat,
and did nothing except catch the occasional rat.
The incredibly fat orange cat,
never has time for idle chit-chat,
and don't even think about giving him a pat,
or you'll soon feel the fat cats wrath.
The incredibly fat orange cat ,
was actually quite lonely in fact,
because having a chat,
about a rat,
while you sit on a scratchy lumo pink mat,
with a fat orange cat,
cab be quite a bore you see
why don't look at me!
You are the one who has to pat,
the incredibly fat orange cat .
