My 2013 Goals

This is my movie about my 2013 goals I hope you enjoy.

My Future Career

My future career. I always ask myself, what am I going to be like in the future. Well I’ve always wanted to be a rugby league star. I live for rugby league. I watch it all the time. I just love it.

If I do make it into the business, I’d be really happy. I would go to the first team that wants me. But if I had a choice, I would go to the NZ Vodafone Warriors because I would like to represent my country and heritage. I would also like to represent the NZ_Kiwis in international league.

Thats what I want to be in the future.

Netbook Reflection 2013

I love my netbook. Do you? Since last year, I’ve had my netbook and I love it to bits. It is so cool. I’ve had a few problems but most of the time its been sweet.

How did my year go with my netbook? The year has been great. Only one internet problem, and 1 reimaging. Apart from those two things, the year has been exceptional. My netbook has been working fine.

How was the internet connection (wireless) like compared to last year? For me it was faster. I could get around studyladder and maths whizz faster. It was loading faster and did have any virus like last year.

Will I ever go back to pen and paper? Well..... NOOOO!!!!! I will never ever go back to pen and paper. I’m going to leave it at that.

My Poems

 Aotearoa, Aotearoa, what do you think of the place Aotearoa?

This is what I think.

Aotearoa the place I was raised in. I love this place to bits. From Rotorua to Auckland. Loving friends, Loving teachers, but most important, Loving family. Having fun, hanging out with friends is all apart of life. But living life is the main thing. 

Aotearoa, the place of many schools. I came from Western Heights Primary from down in Rotorua, all the way to Point England School. Best school in the world. Great students, great principals, but mainly great teachers. The school of many kids from near and far. Every person in the school represents their culture and are different in many ways. That's what a great school needs.

Aotearoa, the place I love to be. If I had some words to say, I'd say Theres no place I'd rather be.

Poem 2:

This poem I wrote at the museum with the help of Mrs Squires. Here it is.

Where I'm from I  taste pork bones lingering on my tongue.

Where I'm from I smell sulphur from the hotpools like my brother after a rugby league game.

Where I'm from I hear birds chirping as noisy as my mother.

Where I'm from I see constructional works just like my dad building a house.

Where I'm from I feel like a bird in a nest. Finally I'm Home.

Athletics

“YEAH!” I cheered. Finally athletics. The day I could show off all my skills. Last week on Thursday we had our athletics day. Unfortunately, I wasn’t in a good condition. My knee was bunged up. So I couldn’t compete that well. But I tried my best. I was going to represent my Takitimu team (Yellow) well.

The sport I was looking forward to was high jump. It was my best sport. I really enjoyed it because I wanted to test my jumping skills. I missed my first jump, so I gave it my all on the second try. Even though I landed on my head, I still made it. I couldn’t believe it. After the jump, the bar went up 15cms. It was so hard. Only two boys out of 25 made it. I got out. But at least I had fun.

The other sport I was looking forward to was discus. Discus was a fun sport enjoyed by all my family. This was my second favorite sport. Because it’s not about strength, it’s about technique. I threw the discus. Currently I was in 2nd place. But a big boy, Tana, threw it far and I was 3rd place. I knew I was going to get knocked out because my friend Darius was up next. He threw the discus and it just went more far than mine. I almost placed but I didn’t.

Every year I try my best, but this year I couldn’t compete at my best but I still had fun. I can’t wait for next year.

The Dangerous Bush

Once upon a time there were two explorers. One named Stacy and the other one was Paul. They had been living on an island for years and years. It was a beautiful island with heaps of rare creatures. They decided to go for a walk deep in the bushes. This was their biggest challenge ever.

Stacy and Paul had been hiking for thirty minutes now. Then Stacy said “Paul? Where are we?” Paul had no response. Paul knew they were lost but didn’t want to say a word. So they continued their journey. Stacy started to feel scared but Paul was a brave as a fox. Stacy and Paul headed forward. They were in for a big surprise.

The two hikers had been walking for one hour and ten minutes. They started to get tired. Suddenly............ Out of nowhere a monkey jumped out at them they ran backwards. After they had been running, they drank some water. But Paul drunk heaps and he ran out of water. After that tragedy, they continued on their journey.

“We’ve been walking for two hours now Stacy” said Paul. “I know Paul” Stacy responded. They stopped to have another drink. Once again, they ran out of water. “We’re out of water!” screamed Stacy. “What are we going to do?” “I’ll tell you what we’re going to do.” said Paul. “We are going to keep going.” So they headed forward.

After five hours of walking, they reached their cottage. Both parched, they drank heaps and heaps of water. After that adventure, they knew not to go too far away from home. So they chose to give up hiking and be geography teachers and teach kids about all their adventures and the beautiful landscape of Earth. They lived happily ever after.
