Could It Possibly Be? The Mummy Returns

Swiss! The wind blew the travellers vigorously as they stood at the airport ready to take off to Egypt. They wanted to seek a special artefact that was hidden in the ground for centuries.

“Please buckle your seatbelts, this is going to be a bumpy ride” the pilot spoke with horror. “We are landing in 3, 2, 1” The aeroplane struck down towards the sand making it look like a cloud in the sky be thrown about. Not a thing was found until Mariamme one of the scientist, could see and ancient pyramid. Little by little drips of water fell as they were walking. John was the youngest traveller and decided to take a tiki tour around.

He was enjoying alot, infact he wanted to live here FOREVER. There were lots of antiquated paintings on the wall which were written in a different language. John thought it meant treasure ahead but it actually said November is the month when all the mummies come alive. “OH NO” John exclaimed. He was about to get captured by a mummy. He hastily ran the way he came but couldn’t find his way out, it was like a maze.

Approximately 15 minutes passed and all had been doing was screaming HELP. His heart was beating, ba boom ba boom. He needed a miracle in order to get away. “Could it possibly be?” John was extremely relieved. There was a container that was empty and smelt disgusting. Running, stepping, closing, resting everything was all over.

Soon enough the other scientists found John and all travelled back to the airport. Remember, never go wandering around by yourself. Especially when you're in a pyramid

My Amazing Friend Tui

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.

HOORAY! I'm out of hospital

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.

Tamaki Rec Center

Two weeks ago room 18 along with two other boys from room 16 went down to the Tamaki recenter to play two different kind of sports. We hastily walked in a group excitingly busting to get up and active.

These two particular sports were Basketball and Hockey. If you’ve played these amazing sports then you will know how fun they are. On the other hand if you haven’t then I have no doubt that you will love it.

Basketball was my team’s first sport and we were up against the boys. It was intense with the boys always cheating but we were way better than them. In the end the score was 4-16. We were so depressed but we knew we were going to dominate them in Hockey.

Now it was time for Hockey which was coached by my teacher Mr Barks who was really good at this sport. “On my whistle, 3,2,1 GO!” Tyla whacked the puck towards our team getting scores over and over again. Mr Barks went on the boys team just to help them out. “Mr Barks, why did you go on their team?’ we said depressingly. In the end we were the champs and celebrated cheerfully.

PEPA 2012

You may be asking things like “What is PEPA?” PEPA is a show that is held by not only talented students but people who are inspired to shine. PEPA stands for Point England Performing Arts and is a great place to show off your talent.

I am involved in PEPA for 2012 and it has made me more confident, get better at things and being the best I can. I am involved in the choir and hip hop seniors. Choir is not only about moving to the music but using your voice to make people really want to listen. Hip hop has taught me to show off my moves, make them look better and bigger along the way.

PEPA is really enjoyable. On Wednesday night we had a performance in front of the community, parents and teachers. I can’t wait to see all the other students next year striving to succeed.

Thanks to Ms Muliaumasealii for being a great organiser and helping us to get better. You’re the BEST!

This Is My Favorite Place

This week we have been assigned to capture a picture of where in the school is our favourite place. We were to take several shots and out of all of them only select one. We also had to give reasons of why we chose this particular shot and make it look interesting at the same time.

The photo above,  is my favourite place. It’s the senior playground where all the fun, laughter and is one of the coolest places in the whole school.

I like this one because out of all the rest this was one of the best.  It is a bit weird but interesting at the same time and I think that that is cool because it shows what kind of things are on the playground. I like the beautiful native trees in the background too. I said to myself  “this has to be the one!”

This is the picture I chose, it reminds me of all the fun things you can play on. It shows the entire picture and I love how the shot was taken as a birds eye view.  I would recommend this place if you are a bit bored or even you just want to relax.

Thanks to David who helped edit my work and just remember that EVERYONE has a favorite place.
