camp ♠

CAMP

WAS AMAZING!!! It was so much better than I imagined ! It was just so perfect! I couldnt ask for anythng better I will never forget it!

things i found most difficult: hm I wasn't very good at keeping my area/ suitcase very organised and i found the canoeing to the campsite hard and tieing up my boots

what was easy: flying fox, bridge jumping 

was it what I expected?: NO! i thought the lodge turned out much nicer than i thought.  
what was my proudest moment...: completing the high ropes with Eva!
Describe my favorite moment...: probably on the flying fox, we had got strapped into the harness, then we had to walk a few steps until we flew at 50km/ph (probably not idk) it was so high at the view was absolutely beautiful!!!! so many green trees and looking under my feet was a gushing fresh river and to my left were bare brown mountains. It was so perfect.

☼ EGGS AND NUTS ☼ plus old blog posts

I cant remember what day it was last week but Lottie told us thatches like really really badly allergic to nuts and eggs....
I guess that's kinda lucky because I don't really like some nuts or eggs and whenever mum gives them to me I never eat them. But then its sad BECAUSE YOU CANT EAT CAKE!!! LIKE WHAT
so she told us if she ever eats a nut/ egg she will blow up (waait no) I think her tongue swells up and she has to have all this special medicine!
Also today she demonstrated (on a orange!) how to use the epipen which is a thing that Lottie would stab into her thigh if her allergy got really bad!
so yeah that's what I learnt this week ☺☻
something else that I wanted to talk about that REALLY annoys me.
looking at your old blog posts in year 7
oh
my
gosh
I like deleted everything when I got back to school this year!
coz it was just embarrassing to know I wrote that and thought it was cool.... ugh
anyways that's what I think ...
comment if u like totally I agree with me ♪

something I'm interested in...

i actually have no idea…..
none…..
my brain is blank….

my brother told me that I'm into gymnastics and swimming
yeah i guess i am but i really don't want to talk about that…. hmmmm
OOOOOOAAAAAAA I JUST HAD A BRAIN WAVE

I am very very very very in love with TNS!! (the next step)
The Next Step in a TV show on disney channel and it is usually on every friday at 5-5:30 (unless its changed somehow)
whenever i can't watch it like i have a netball game to go to i record it to watch it late but IT ALWAYS FAILS!!!!
UH
Its a show about these dancers and (its really hard to explain) they have all these dramas between friends and relationships and blah its very intense as you can tell.
the thing I like about it is that it always ends at the most interesting part and it makes you want to keep watching!
i advise you all to watch it the week ;)

New Yearrrrrr

I don't really know if this is gonna be seen by everyone or anything… i don't think Room 8 is a part of the intermediate blog yet

oh whale

So school started back about two and a half weeks ago because the first week was only 3 days caused by a teachers only day on Monday and waiting day on Friday.

But lucky for the year 7's the tasks were super easy and small and we don't really get many on the first few weeks, but I've got them done in a nice time with good presentation! yay

wow okay I'm blabbing on way to much…

I really like the task system. It prepares us intermediatians (whatever we call ourselves) for college next year ! (years 7's=2 years)

I also think its really sad that Room 8 is miles away from any humanity, (hehe don't even know what that means) I'm not saying that Rm8 is baaaaddddd or anything but just ARGH THERES SO MANY YR 7'SSSSSSS BLEH

 okay that was way too long bye

Bye

Christmas Blah

4 Christmas this year my family and I are going up to our cousins house in Auckland. I'm kinda excited to go because they have a new house and it looks really cool!
every year we either go to our grandparents house or our cousins house. We hardly ever have it at our own house.
Our family Tradition is we put up the Christmas tree.... there's kinda no point in putting it up because we won't be here but anyway. It looks cool
Ill miss all the year 8's especially Nayeli and Ashling and
omg alisters gone. he wont be at camp bleh it will be very quite without him

                            I think that's all

Whet, wow its the end of 2014!!!!

It really doesn't feel like Christmas!
It doesn't feel like December!
IT IS SO UNREAL THAT ITS 2015 NEXT YEAR!!

• Speeches (not my highlight :0 )
• Tech
• PE- Softball & Cricket
• Space Research topics
• Japanese

being a Year Eighttttt

next year me and all the other year 7's will be year 8's
I'm kinda and kinda not looking forward to it
i am because we are gonna be the leaders of the school and we have so much more opportunities to take. I'm not looking forward to t because, it just so scary! its gone so fast! like seriously im gonna be a year 8! *shiver*
things im looking forward to is  like i said up there, we will be the oldest in the school and have lots more chances to take. AFTER THAT WE WILL BE GOING TO COLLEGEEEEE
i dont know what might be challenging. maybe camp, tasks. i dont know :P

how terrible i am at speeches

OMG I ACTUALLY JUST DID MY SPEECH AND IM NEVER GONNA DO IT AGAIN
well until next year
grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I felt like the whole entire world was staring into my eyes
my whole body was shaking I could hardly hold my cur cards
I kept stuttering
my words were jumbled
I couldn't speak English
my face was burning hot
BUT NOW IM DONE
NO MORE STRESS FOR A WHOLE YEAR
WOOHOOOOOO

I think my favourite speech was far has been bens
he did it on why I will beat Xara at the speech competition
I also like katerinas
she did it on dreams

next year I need to go over and over my speech thousands of times. I also need to get it sorted sooner, I kept on changing the topic. and it was about week 4 or week 5 when I finished writing it !

the great chocolate bake off

the book that I have juuuuuust finished reading was
ya.. The Great Chocolate Bake Off
I cant remember who its by
oh wait its by someone like Stephen pavis or something I don't know




this book Is about a guy Nicholas who comes from a poor family and lives with his dad and little brother, Zac
he was useless at everything until a family of 2 moved into the shabby house next door
a mum called bella and daughter called Ruby
Nicholas thinks ruby is the most annoying person ever yet tries to make her think hes an amazing cook, ruby makes him cook dinner a few times and Nicholas gets the hang of it and
keeps practising
he tries making muffins and ruby told him to try cakes
turns out hes amazing at making cakes and enters the great chocolate bake off.
but is he good enough to beat oliver billigton who wins everything? dun dun dun


I thought it was a good book because it just kept me reading it was so interesting. it was also about chocolate! haha
I didn't really have a favourite character :\


siena is cewl bai

speeeech

I'm doing my speech on sugar :P
er at the moment I'm not going so well
it needs to be done by the end of this week and I've hardly done half
and on sunday a did heaps on mums computer and now its just disappeared! ARGHHH

when i do present my speech to the class..
i need to focus on standing naturally and not looking so awkward
i also need to speck loud clearly and slowly
and eye contact, i need to focus on practically EVERYTHING
yeah just being natural with hand jesters

Im really nervous for week 6!!

SPAAAACE

this term our topic has been space
we have been doing lots of activities and lots of reading about space
so I have been finding out a lot about space recently


one of the things I've found most interesting was...
hmmmmmmmmmmm
probably space travel and the first mission to space
it makes me wonder when they're next going up again and one day will NASA have enough money to take humans further than the moon?
maybe even further than our solar system!?

MICHAEL PHELPS

MICHAEL PHELPS

For one of our tasks this week we had to choose a famous person to research... I choose Michael Phelps;

Michael Fred Phelps is a well known swimmer for his amount of world records broken and new times set. He is also know as the most decorated Olympian of all time from where he won 22 medals at the 2012 Olympics. He is currently 29 years old and was born June 30th. He competed in his first Olympics when he was 15.

Michael has been retired since 2012, but has said that he will possibly come back and compete in the 2016 Olympics. He is a very strong swimmer but his best strokes are Backstroke, Butterfly, Freestyle and individual medley. He's the long course record holder for 100m Butterfly, 200m Butterfly and 400m individual medley, and he used to be the record holder of 200m Freestyle & 200m IM, until Paul Biedermann and Ryan Lochte beat him.

He was brought up in Baltimore, Maryland, with 2 sisters who are both older than him. His parents divorced in 1994 but his father remarried in 2000.At the age of 15, Michael was the youngest American male swimmer to compete at the Olympic Games in 68 years.

Michael is such an amazing swimmer. I hope one day I could maybe be successful like him.
