My story
On the way to the ice cream stand, I died. Okay, ran over, actually, but died just about sums it up. The ice cream stand was across the road from my school. "Hey, want an ice cream? It's on me!" I asked my friends, Rosie and Po. They told me what they wanted, and I started jogging across the road, my mouth watering at the thought of a strawberry double serve, with chocolate sprinkles and a flake...
A red car, swerving from the corner, out of NOWHERE, could I mention, came at me. I stood frozen like a deer caught in headlights. I know, I should have run. But I couldn't. The cars tyres screeched, trying to stop, but failing. You know how they say before you die, your life flashes before you? Well, it doesn't. So a word of advice, enjoy life when you can. Anyway, the car hit me hard, and I went flying. Everyone was screaming and it was chaos. Of course, I wasn't part of all the drama, because my soul was already leaving my body and floating up.
Heaven isn't that great. The food is pretty bad, and the showers smell like feet. But, on the plus side, the people there are awesome. I mean, who knew that angels had to clean their wings, too? No wonder they take so long in the showers. Or that God was actually a really funny guy? But I wasn't in Heaven to live forever. I was just there until my trial, that would determine if I would go to Hell, or stay in Heaven. I'd heard stories about Hell. I did not want to go there. This was a good time to pray- not for my life, which was already gone, but my soul.

Goodbye, Earth
The gluestick flew out of the room. Or should I say, I flew out of the room. I'm a flying gluestick. I was manufactured in Neptune. It's very cold there and I don't advise you go there for a holiday. Anyway, back to that day. I was waiting patiently to be used, looking around the strange classroom. I mean, who puts writing on their wall? People these days.
Suddenly I saw a boy dig his finger into his nose secretly, thinking that no one was looking. Disgusting humans. Oh no. The boy is reaching out for me, with the hand he stuck up his nose. I had to get out of there. Hmm. I haven't flown for AGES. It could be good exercise. I have to make up my mind quick. The boy is almost touching me with those grubby fingers...
In one smooth movement, I spread my wings and took flight. Ah. It felt good looking at those gaping faces of ignorant children as I flew gracefully out the door...
OW.
I flew headfirst into the doorway. I picked myself up hurriedly off the floor. That was so not professional. Flying out of the small school, I wondered where to go next. I saw a red truck coming towards me. I flew straight up, narrowly avoiding the red front of the vehicle. I was high up in the sky and I was free at last from the polluted earth below me...
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw a flying pen shooting up past me. Wait. A FLYING PEN? I'll have to go talk to her.

Life Ed
When I was little I used to love Harold and enjoy the facts about the body.
Now in Yr 7, it's different. We learn about the different types of drugs and how they affect our body. There are actually more drugs then I imagined. There's all those different types, like the stimulation drugs, the hallucination drugs and the depressants. Drugs were best described as: Anything that is not food, water or oxygen that can be absorbed in the human body. It was also referred as the web of addiction. The web is the drugs and it lures you in...
Michelle was the person who was in charge of the Life Ed in SAMS. She told us about a lot of things, like puberty. One of the many things I learnt was that there was something called the seven steps on the ladder of puberty. You can start on this ladder when you are as young as 9 or as old as 15. You spend seven years on this ladder, and normally when you get off, you are about 17. Michelle said she was never going to tell us” Don’t do drugs.” But one thing she kept repeating was “Delay your decision.” She also showed us a lot of videos about all the people who had experiences with drugs and how their lives turned out.
At the last day, we met Harold and his friend Big G. They sang a song and we got to pat him.
I learnt a lot of different things that changed my mind about drugs- not that I would have ever taken them, that is. One important thing I learnt was “Even if people have had a bad day, a smile could be the thing that would cheer them up!” :)

Science Fair!
This year is Science fair and I am quite excited because I have seen my sister do it and it looks quite fun. But she said that it is hard work and so I shall have to put a lot of effort into it:)
I am working with PR and I hope we do well! As much as I am excited about this project, I do not have a particular interest in science but I have a few ideas that might make this easier:
Does a cold room have more air humidity or a warm room?
What makes your heart pound the fastest?
Do plants grow better in soft soil or hard soil?
Does white sugar melt faster or brown sugar or are they the same?
What vegetable seed grows the fastest?
Does different ways of cooking potatoes effect the taste?
As you can see I have wrote down topics that are fairly easy to do:)
If you think you could suggest anything, please post a comment!^.^

What I learnt this week
This week I learnt many things that I hopefully won't soon forget...
I learnt how to figure out the percentage of a number and how to figure out the number with the percentage.
I also learnt that in writing, planning is a very good thing to do- and to make it detailed so that you can just look at the plan and know what to write straight away. This week in writing I also learnt how to write a book report properly- with all the right orders and what the theme is in a story.
Chinese this week was also very helpful because we learnt how to say the things in our pencil cases like ruler is chizi and pen is bi (I hope I'm right), so now I can tell someone what's in my pencil case in Chinese.
In reading this week I was working on Tuitui Shampoo and I learnt what versatile means- the tuitui nut is vesatile because it has many uses. I also learnt how to find key words in a story and how to group them together and sort them out to get answers.
In spelling, I learnt how to spell words like bronchitis and diarrhoea, which don't really spell like they sound!
I think what I learnt this week was very important and I hope to use all this imformation in later life. ^.^

Science Preassessment
In Science, we have started a new unit called landforms. This is a preassessment. We had to choose a rock, then record a clip about its texture, size and how it got there.

HC and HR Chinese dialouge
In this video we had to have a conversation with each other in Chinese. I think I was a bit quiet but I wasn't too awkward. My telephone number went good but I have to work on my pronounciation and fluency more.

SAMS learner t-shirt
This is my t- shirt and this is why i chose to do it like this:
The fun is in bold colors because learning is supposed to be fun so I put red, orange and yellow in it which is bright and happy. The girl is thinking outside the box because that is what a SAMS thinker should do. The eye of the girl is enlarged because she is looking through a magnifying glass. She is being a SAMS explorer! I did her eye green because it is a bright color so it looks like she is all ready to learn. There is a watch because being a SAMS self-manager is all about being on time. The word 'learning' at the bottom of the shirt is in a sharp looking font because learning should be sharp and precise. The color is green- a happy color, because as well as being sharp and focused, learning should be enjoyable. Beside the girl is my books, because we wouldn't be learning much without books. I coloured it gold because books are golden and precious! For the SAMS communicator i drew the mouth talking and the ear listening. I also did social networking, like a computer and a cellphone. I did my background blue and white because they are the SAMS colors!!!

Chinese Introduction Video
Comment:
I think I was ok at saying my phone number.
I need to improve on my tones.
I didn't need the script too much but I was still struggling a bit to remember.
I want to be more fluent in my Chinese.
