The Holiday Surprise

On a marvelous Sunday noon after church my family and I hurried to the car. We had to hurry to the car because we were going to go to a garage sale. So we left church and drove back home to get changed for the garage sale. 

When we all got changed and ready we drove off. The garage sale was at Mt Wellington. But instead of going to Mt Wellington we went to Sylvia Park. When we got into Sylvia Park we saw my Aunty Karissa and her kids. She also came with her husbands little brother his name was Christian. I said to my Dad with confusion, "what are we doing here?" He said that we were going to the Movies.

When we met together I was really thrilled because we were going to the Movies. I was wondering what we were going to watch.

So we went to the Movie Theatre and booked our tickets and seats. The Movie that we were going to watch was Despicable Me Part 2. I had already seen Despicable Me Part 1 and it was really cool so I thought that Part 2 would be really funny.

We started to buy the Food but then they were too expensive so me and my Aunty Karissa went to Pak'n'Save to buy some Ice creams. After we had bought the Ice creams my Aunty and I rushed back to the Theatre.

When we got back to the Theatre everyone was already sitting down on the couches and eating the Popcorn. While we were waiting my cousin and I went to the Arcade Room with my Dad. My Dad was playing a game, it looked really fun so I joined him.

After when my Dad and I lost and died in the game it was time to go back and wait. When we entered the Cinema it was dark as the nights sky, but we could see a little bit. When we had found our seats we all sat down and my Dad passed the Popcorn to us and we waited again.

Next we started to eat a little bit of our Popcorn and watched the advertisements that appeared on the screen. The screen was really long and wide. While the advertisements were going on the lights seemed to dime a little darker and darker and darker. When the advertisements were finished the lights went pure dark. It was silent like a Library and I was so excited. When the Movie begun there was a picture on the screen and also on the screen there were names of the people who invented the film.

The Movie was about a Villan who really becomes a spy and has a partner to protect the world. In some parts it was really funny and in some parts were really weird.

My highlight in the Movie was when another Bad Guy makes a kind of chemical that makes people or animals turn into a Purple Monster.

At the end of the Movie when everyone exited the Theatre I wished that I could watch it again because it was so hillarious and awesome.

Next time when I go to the Movies I want to see an Action Movie and enjoy eating the Popcorn and Ice Cream. =)

Term 2

During Term 2 my 2 favourite things that I did was the Holy Spirit art and Swimming. The reason why I liked these 2 things was because first I really love to paint pictures and design my own creations. Also the reason why I liked to swimming is because I love to be in the water and I also love to find different ways to swim. How I felt when I was doing art was awesome because Art is one of my favourite subjects and because I like to use paint. How I felt about swimming was  amazing because I like to backstroke and have free time at the end of the lesson.

The most least thing that I disliked for me during Term 2 was Football and the cookie thinking keys. I disliked those 2 activities was because first I don’t really like to kick and that we don’t get to touch the ball, also I don’t like the Cookie thinking keys was because really for me it wasn’t really fun and I did find some difficult and hard questions. How I felt about playing Football was exhausting because we had to move around alot and my legs kept on getting tired. How I felt about the cookie thinking keys was difficult because it was hard on some keys and really different to answer.

What I am really looking forward to Term 3 is going to the kids 4 kids concert and playing a new kiwi sport league. I am really looking forward to these 2 events because I can’t wait to perform in front of a whole crowd and I can’t wait to sing with more people and Jackie Clarke and Nathan King. I also can’t wait to play the new kiwi sport because I like to try different sports each year.

Religious Education Work

I broke my Mother's  favourite mug when I was reaching to grab something from the pantry. The first thing I did was say sorry and said to her that I will fix it. Then I tried to fix it and make it look like it was brand new again. When I had finished I was really sorry for what I had done but then at the end eventually my Mum forgave me.
