ICT Technology

Today at ICT we edited a picture of ourselves in photo shop. But before that we took a photo of ourselves in photo both. The tools that we used in photo shop was the pencil and photo bucket. We used the pencil to draw the outline of our picture, and we used the paint bucket to fill it with colour. It was really hard for me to draw the outline because my hand wasn't steady enough. We learnt a lot from ICT today I can't wait till next week

The Movie of the Week

“They are over there,” I said pointing at my Aunty and cousin. He waved at us well we walked over to them, “Sup,” Jahsiah said. “Sup” Troy said in a deep voice. “Hi Aunty,” I said as she squeezed me like she always does.

“Hey sweetie,” she said as she loosened her grip. I walked over to my mum she was getting the tickets for the movie, “Mum, what are we going to watch,” I said. “Man of Steel” she said as the lady gave her our tickets. We walked over to the both were the tell you where to go. “Hi, you’ll be  just third on your right” she said as she ripped of the end of our tickets and passed them back.

“I bet you mums going to fall asleep,” I said as we walked in the cinema, “Probably” Jahsiah said as we sat down. Everyone was on there phones before the movie started, I was getting bored so I started to look around and then the lights started to dim. “Finally,” I said under my breathe.  

As we stood up the lights turned on, the movie was as cool as ice. I was really sad because I didn't want the movie to end, because it was so excited.

I enjoyed the movie ‘Man of Steel’ it was really interesting the middle was a little bit slow but it still had a lot of action in it. I hope I will be able to watch it again, we all had a great time and that is all that really mattered.

The Catch of The Day

On Tuesday we had a Softball session with three ladies from Auckland Sport, it was really exciting to learn how to play softball properly. But first we had to find a buddy.

Then we learned how to roll the ball and catch it in this monkey pose, it was really funny. Then we learnt hot to bounce the ball. The most interesting activity we did was throwing and catching the ball.

Softball was really fun. I can’t wait till the next time we have another session.

Last Time

The morning was as cold as ice when it started to rain. It was our last day of soccer we saw been on the courts and someone said “Are we going to play on the court?”

Then Ben said, “Yeah, well it’s not raining anymore”. Then someone else said “What if it starts to rains again” and then Ben said “Well you’ll just get wet” and then we all laughed.

We had to warm up well they were setting up the game so we had a game of Octopus it was really fun, everyone dodging and getting caught by the taggers. The taggers were as fast as a cheater. We had one more game of Octopus, it was as fun as the first game.

Ben made as a promise that we could have a mini tournament so we were separated into six teams.

All I could hear was “One, Two Three, Four, Five, Six,” over and over again. There were two teams on each court we were waiting for the signal to star, a big loud powerful blow. There were four games, everyone was eager to win whenever someone got a goal the team started to celebrate. The games were as fun as Friday night. Then we heard a loud whistle it was a signal to swap over. When we got to our next game people were like “Game on!” then our team responded the same exact way.

“Goal yahh!” someone said really loudly I’m sure they wanted everyone to hear. Another loud blow went so we changed over it was our last game there was a goal there and another there.

 “Three, Two, One, and game over” Ben said in a loud voice.

After that we all gathered June walked up to the front and said “On behalf of room then  I would like to thank you”. “Thanks guys” Ben said in a big voice high fiveing everyone that went past him.

The Wattle street kids are watching a toboggan race on TV. They decide to have their own snow race. Everyone finds something to use as a toboggan ~ everyone except for Jing. Will she be able to enter the race?

Wattle Street Hockey

Jing loves hockey. It is her favorite game. When Wattle street is closed for repairs, Jing organises a game of street hockey. What will happen when things get heated up?

I chose an activity from this story called, Wattle Street Hockey Crossword. It was a little bit hard at the start but I did finish it.

It was a Dark Cold Night

It was a dark cold night, the horrifying  sound of a person being dragged across the cold wooden floor. I heard a person cry and scream in terror, I had heard this voice before I was on the edge to go open the door. Am I just being silly I thought, I slowly stood up being a brave as I could be.  I was certain I’ve heard this voice before, I’m at the door I was about to turn the doorknob and then “Don’t open the door it’s a trick,” said a quiet whisper, “Who is that,” I whispered puzzled. The voice didn’t answer me now I know I’m  definitely crazy. I thought I was crazy so everything that I heard was made up so I turned the doorknob knowing nothing will happen.

“What did you do you have made a mistake it isn’t too late shut the door and lock it before it comes,” whispered the voice. “Who are you, you’re not even real so get out of my head ,“ I said so angry and frustrated. I looked down the passage there was a dark shadow just standing there I didn’t know what I should do. It started running towards me, I turned and ran into my room I locked the door like the whisper told me to. “Hello,” I said thinking I am getting crazy by the minute. “Know do you believe?,” the voice said. “Yes, yes what do I have to do to rid of it i’ll do anything,  just please help me,” I said begging the whisper. “First you have to promise you’ll do everything I tell you to do,” the whisper said really seriously. “Yes anything,” I said not being certain of what I’m getting into.

“You need a weapon,” said the whisper, “Done,” I said opening my draw and slowly taking out a the gun my dad hid in my draw incase something like this ever happened. “What’s next,” I said. “Forget what I said before you need to get out of your room and get to the biggest room in this house,” said the whisper, “Are you sure there is no other way,” I said really scared what I was about to hear. “Yes!,” the voice shouted. I opened the door with the gun tightly gripped in my right hand I looked across the passage there was no one, “Run,” said the whisper. I ran to my parents room shut the door behind me and locked it.

“What’s next,” I said I was all ready to get this over and done with. “You have to jump out of the window and run to your neighbours,” said the whisper. Before she could even change her mind she found herself outside on the porch, so she ran to her neighbours and asked them to call the cops. Red and blue flashing lights outside of my house, there was a cop asking me questions what happened. After she asked me the questions she went and started to check the house with the other cops. The lady walked out with a gun in a plastic bag and with my parents at the back of her. The cop walked over to her “Tell your daughter what you told me,” said the cop. “Ahh well we were in our room when we heard Marissa screaming and shouting we looked at the door and then she ran into her room she was talking to herself and then she ran into our room with a gun, we were telling her to drop it she did but, then she jumped out of the window and ran to the neighbors,” my mum said, really certain what happened. “And then we saw the cops,” my dad said. “That’s not what happened and what are you guys doing here you should be in paris,” I said. My mum looked at the cop, the cop took me to a police car and next thing I knew I was in mental hospital.

From that day on I knew my Mum and Dad set me up, they never really liked me.......
