Do you know who my best friend is? Tui, Tui is the kind of person of looks short, acts funny and get be a bit weird at times but on the other hand she is ALWAYS and I mean ALWAYS ecstatic. Tui is in my class and she is always participates in everything and anything that includes some type of sport or involves running. Here’s a link to her blog so you can check out her work.
The things we do together are so boring but Tui makes them fun and exciting at the same time. Such as detention, whenever we’re on detention we always wait for each other and walk around the school. I know I can tell Tui anything because she has always been secret safe. We have many other friends such as Jasmine and David.
First reason why Tui is one of my besties is because we hang out an awful lot and have think a lot like. Second of all, she helps whenever I’m struggling and encourages me to keep striving and getting better. We both are similar in the terms of maths and reading but most of all the reason why I Tui is my BFF (Best friend forever) is because she always makes me feel good in the inside and is extremely kind.

Tui will always be one of my besties. No matter what happens, even we we argue, fight or disagree about something I still love her till the very end.
Can you guess where I was for three months and three days? Well I think it’s pretty obvious judging by the title. I was at Starship hospital. Starship is a kids hospital in auckland. My reason for being there is because there was a big mystery of what, caused my foot to get infected.
It all started on a Wednesday morning when I found out I had a really nasty infection, that didn’t look too good. I went into hospital around 8 o’clock in the morning, I stayed in ED (emergency department) for about 2 hours until I finally got the chance to go up into my ward ( level four, ward 24a). I got out of the lift and carried on to my destination (room two.) Once I reached my destination, I saw other sick children laying in their beds.
Week one. I layed there nervously looking at everyone in my room. “What’s your name?” I heard someone say on the opposite side of me. “Chelsea” I replied. That’s when I started meeting new people. I started to explore different things around the hospital; such as the playground, teen lounge, playroom and other places. It was really awkward sitting in bed all day without nothing to do, except for watching television.
One week had already past. I couldn’t stand another tedious day. The doctors came to see me with a small grin on their face. “You’re going home today” they said, as if they still wanted me to stay. “HOORAY!” I was so ecstatic and couldn’t wait for the physio lady (Ruth), to give me my crutches, so I can go home.
Sleeping in my own bed felt comfortable, soft and it made me feel like I was in heaven. Four days past and it was time for my check up at the hospital. I was really excited about what Doctor Bidwell (my doctor) had to say. “NOOOOOOO!”. You can probably guess what happened. I had to remain in hospital for a couple of weeks. They put a new back slab on me which helps support my foot, I depressingly walked back to the nurses station.
Well that’s not exactly how it ended. I had to have three operations that were a approximately two hours long. Now that I’m at school I feel better than ever, I hope that my journey ends but from here onwards I will still remember the children I spent my journey in hospital with.
