My Diary

This is my diary from week 7. Everyday for the rest of the term including the weekend we write about what we have done on that day, we call it a diary entry.

Nana's Noisy Sleepover🎉

Title-Nana’s Noisy Sleepover!🎉

Date-22\10 T4

“Race you inside!” I shouted, everyone cam running in as if they were a pack of wolves. It hadn't even been 1 minute and the room was a total mess!

“Can’t catch me!’ said my cousin Roman, I sprinted around the house, from the kitchen, to the bathroom, under my legs and back in the living room! My cousin Jenifer helped me with everyone. Our faces were sweaty, we were as hot as fire and our faces were as red as a tomato. 

Once everyone was calmed down and were still chattering as loud as they possibly could I put on a movie for them to watch. I didn’t really care what movie it was, I just put one on.   

Later on in the night everyone was yawning and their eyes were red, nobody could hardly sleep because the adults outside were singing kareoke to the early mornings.

Jenifer and I looked as tired as a lazy sloth. We started daydreaming and our eyes we closing slowing, and then...“Zzzz” We all fell asleep, 

In the morning I was woken up by my little cousin he pulled my arm, along with Jenifer’s arm, and showed us how much craziness we missed while we were asleep. It was just like last night all over again, everyone screaming, throwing pillows around and stomping as loud as elephants!

Wow! That has been one of the craziest moments in my life yet fun at the same time. Laughing together, chattering about what to do tomorrow and just chilling out with friends and family. I do hope to see them again next time.

MATARIKI LIGHTS

On Saturday I went to the Matariki light trail in Glen Innes. I went with my mum and two cousins Jenifer and Shanel. The weather was so cold, cold as a block of ice, so we all wore warm jackets and beanies.  When we first walked into the entrance the lights we're so bright that I was like a possum caught in headlights and the crowds were as busy as a bee hive.

At the Matariki light trail they also had different stalls. The one stall we liked sold light sticks but there were none left, and all they had left we're only light necklaces so we bought those instead. We did some pretty cool tricks with them. Jenifer, put it around her neck and spun it, it was like a spaceship coming into land. I did a similar thing to Jenifer, but I did it with my arm spinning and jumped up and down like a bouncy ball.

We decided to get something to munch because I was SO hungry and chop suey did the trick. While we were eating we saw some of my Aunties, Uncles and cousin's.

I saw my friend Lydia from my dance class but she didn’t recognise me because of my beanie.

‘Time to walk the light trail’ my mum pointed out . So we did! It was as bright as the city of Las Vegas. We had to cross a bridge and on the bridge you could see glowing jellyfish.

We walked back to find a good spot to watch the fantastic fireworks. My favourite part was watching the fireworks. I liked the sounds.It was  like someone was talking into a microphone, a plane coming into land and all they whistling like at netball. When the fireworks finished we walked back to the car and when we looked down we had so much mud on our shoes I’m sure we left our own mud trail. I really had a fun night at the trail I hope I can do it again next year.  

Anzac Haiku

We have been learning about Japanese poetry called Haiku.

A haiku is a poem with 3 lines. The first line has 5 syllables, the 2nd line has 7 syllables and the 3rd line has 5 syllables.

I felt inspired by the videos we watched about Anzac soldiers training in Egypt, then landing on the beaches in Turkey. I felt sad because my dad is in the army and I worry that if there is a war he will have to go and fight and he might get hurt.
