Today me and my best friend had so much fun!!!!

We were at Hayleighs house and we were thinking of things to do when she hitched her skirt up and said “We  should make our own designs out of our clothes!” I thought it was a great idea, so we raided her wardrobe and made awesome fashions by pulling skirts up to our chests, tucking long tops underneath them so that they peeped out the bottom and getting belts so tight that we could keep the skirts up that high without them falling down.

We ended up making two outfits that were so awesomely cool that we wanted to get our hair, accessories and make up to match. Sadly my mum came before we got around to doing makeup, but we still looked awesome!

Our hair was in (Lord of the Rings) elven style and we had accessories that went perfectly with our clothes. We loved our outfits so much that we even did a runway show for our parents and Hayleighs little brothers and her gorgeous boxer dog Biscuit. We had so much fun that next weekend I’m going to invite her to do the same thing but at my house because I have an even bigger supply of clothes! (You wouldn’t believe that if you saw how many clothes she has!)

Tui was a proud bird who boasted her brilliant singing voice far and wide.

She boasted of her brilliant tones, to anyone who would listen. So the story of her voice spread all through the forest that was her home until it met the jeears of the Red Robin, who was very proud of his singing.

When the robin heard about Tui, he immediately traveled to her part of the forest, and challenged her to a sing off.

The event was grand, with both birds giving their all and singing with new life and vigor. But it soon turned ugly when the judges made their verdict and ruled Tui better than Robin.

Robin flew into a terrible rage and started to tear at Tui and the judges. In his anger, he pulled out two of Tui’s beautiful dark green throat feathers and threw them across the treetops. The absence of the feathers revealed soft, white, curling plumage that poked through her green feathers, to form two beautiful white tufts.

To this day, those feathers serve as a reminder to Tui, as to why never to boast.

This term, my main focus will probably be on the performing arts, I am hoping to pass my music exam for alto saxophone and also my singing exam. I am taking part in the play that the drama group is performing for the grandparents day and I will also be auditioning for the school production.

My inquiry will also be a focus for this term, I want to work better with groups and open my mind to other ideas rather than being stubborn.

I will be working hard on my maths to speed it up.

And I will be trying to get a blog post on my blog every week if possible.

These are my goals, if you have some tips on how to complete them, or you want to share your goals please comment.

This morning I was talking to my mum and she told me that it was the last week of term! Could this be? The term had gone so fast that wasnt able to keep track! And of course, considering that this is term three which makes next term term four and the last term of the year the whole year has gone fast.

I was amazed. I thought that there was still at least three more weeks to go. But it seems not. Oh well atleast it means soon I get to relax. But I don’t get to relax in the first three days of the holidays, because I have drama competitions, and I am soooooooo nervous! Then in he middle of the holidays I have singing exams! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But at least I can relax in the days that I don’t have anything on. That is, if my mum lets me. Ha ha ha.

Last Saturday was the happiest day of my life!!! It was the netball finals, and we were facing the TAI Mini Marshmallows, The team we had lost to twice and tied with once.

The team was full of jitters but we pulled it together and had a great first quarter, sadly I was off for that quarter. The second and third quarters and I was put in as Wing Defence (WD). I played hard and we did well. We were in the lead, 18 – 13. The last quarter. I was off for this quarter. The team was starting to tire and the mini marshmallows were catching up. It was a battle to the finish but we came out on top, winning 23 - 18. What a great game!!! It was soooo fun

We had won the finals, and now it was time to party!!!!!!! We had a great after party at our captains house, with delicious party food and SINGSTAR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We all had loads of fun and we really had something to celebrate this time! overall I had a really great day and had loads of fun. I still can’t believe we won the finals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

“And Bambi and her mother lived happily ever after…” finished Bob. She had been reading Bambi to her little fawn (who by now wasn’t so little) and she had realised that it didn’t have a happy ending, so she wrote her own version where Bambi lives happily ever after with her mother. Bob had named the fawn Bambi so it was quite important that Bambi in the story had a happy life.

As it is quite easy to tell Bob has softened to Bambi, a lot. Now that Bambi is older, she doesn’t cry in the night and doesn’t need as much attention. But soon Bambi will have to be taken back into the woods to live in the wild. Bob dreads this moment as she has grown quite close to Bambi and would hate to be without her, But it is impossable for Bambi to live in the garage all her life, for if she did it would be a short one.

Then the day came. Bambi was at the age when she needed to go into the wild to find a mate and have fawn of her own. Bob was evestated. She cried and cried and cried but Bambi had to go home…
