✪ Another Long Bay Trip ✪

It was a windy morning. The wind was so freezing I could’ve died, but, I didn’t. So, lucky me.

It was that day of another of our Long Bay trips. This time we were learning about the Marine Reserve. We met our old instructors, Sarah, James and Maureen. There were the years 6s, 7s and 8s. There were three groups and I was with Sarah. My group went to where the rocky shores were. And there, we had a tray with water in it, so that when we walk around looking for some sea creatures, we can place them carefully in the tray of water. The funny thing was, there was a lot of screaming coming from my mouth because I always find the things that I touch, disgusting. We found things like kina, starfish, crabs, pretty shells. EVEN MASSIVE JELLYFISH ! We were given a little booklet and on it, there were sea creatures that we had to look for on the rocky shore. I think we found a lot more than we were supposed too. AMAZING ! Anyway, other people were really fascinated with what they found themselves. I didn’t really know the other kind of fishes, but, at least I found something great to share. Later on that morning, we had our lunch back at our ‘hut’. We were sitting next to our friends, feeding the birds and laughing our heads off because of our jokes.

Our break wasn’t that long, although we did have two more sessions to go with Sarah and then off we went back to school. Our second session was a plain walk along the beach looking for more different types of species. We got some information of Sarah about some of the insects that were crawling, jumping around in the sand. We found some grubs ..... it was not a nice view to see. We played with the sand, ran around, drew our initials in it. I thought it was better than the other Long Bay trip we had. That one was BOOOOOORRRRIIIIING ! Next, we went back to our hut, and we put all the things that we got together and were asked a lot of questions about it. It was competition and we only had seven points, but, I didn't care. We talked about our things, like the different things we found and asked questions about it. It was ..... all right. It wasn't fun at all.

After returning all the things we found, we had to pack and head to the bus. We went year by year to the bus. Sitting down with patience, we headed back to school. Everyone in the bus were really loud. Almost louder than wild animals. There were people singing, laughing, talking and even playing. I was just chillin' with my average friends. The day was cheerful and hilarious. I really enjoyed learning about the waves and the sea creatures and ..... yeah. I really hope we get to go there again.

✪ Maths ✪

Today, our teacher shared with us a site that had a quiz on it. There were three quizzes, A to C. I completed them all and the quiz was about temperature. During the quiz, I learnt a lot about the temperature. There were 10 unique questions about temperature and I aced it !

✌Piano Recital ✌

On Saturday, during the weekend, I had a piano recital at my teacher's friend's house. I was asked to practice three pieces to play at the recital. Two of them, I played on my own and the other one was a duet that I played with another boy called, Ryan. First of all, we had to wait until EVERYONE was there. The person to come lastly was, Ryan. When he came I was so relieved that he did come because, was I going to play a duet by myself ? The line went from youngest to oldest. My teacher called out the names of who were going to play, one after the other. I was the last one to play my pieces, and nailed it. I played exactly how my teacher told me to play. With confidence and inspiration. I was nervous at start, but, when I started playing my pieces, I felt so lonely and managed to get through all the pieces. I was so happy that I did my best and also impressed my mother, that was there.

ღ War ღ

war is the pronunciation of death
it starts with happiness
but, ends with only one breath
so, why wouldn't we just be friends ?
way before those comments
way before we started those pretends

the soldiers who lost their families
or even became insanity
the lives of many shredded
i don't think they knew where they were headed
but, now that they've fought their lives for us
all that we know
is that there would be no more fuss

ღ Making Loopy People ღ

Today we were making and finishing off our loopy people. It was easy to measure myself, draw my half measurement on a piece of paper, then, cut it out and then we make them into our loopy people. There was nothing hard, really about making it, so, I managed to finish just in time. The thing that I have learnt to do was make it correctly. To put my all into it. I really enjoyed making the loopy people and I hope to make them again c:
