Camp 2

The bright lights covered the big city like a sheet. The glassy water casted reflections of the flash firis that formed around the port. The sky turned dark and the first star appeared over our heads. The crescent shaped moon watched down on us like a guardian. My eyes squinted with tiredness. The cold breeze crept into my nose as I inhaled. I looked around at my fellow students. Their red eyes squinted at the amazing sight.  The lampposts lined up in a row surrounding the roads that ran through the city. The grass waved at us as we moved slowly towards the edge of the cliff. My shaking hands dug around in my pockets to find some warmth. The water sat still wrapping around the posts of the wharf.

Camp

The bright sun peered over the puffy clouds and sat softly on the sparkly water. I casted my dark blue eyes into the distance. There sat a small deserted piece of land. My blonde hair whipped across my pale face as my head hung staring into the blue liquid. My head was screaming at me to jump into the clear water and chase after the boat. The big blue monster was abandoning a trail of white bubbles leaving them to sink down to the bottom of the dark ocean.

Free writing

Her eyes were as cold as ice. Her dark blonde hair lay down on her shoulder. Her small head pressed against the the ragged brick wall. Her lips stayed still in a straight line. Her hands were shaking with fear. What if they came back?. Her head screaming out for someone to help but no one heard her. Her mind screamed out again but still no one came. Her long grey sleeves  covered her thin wrists. Her sad and cold emotions were hidden behind her motionless face. Dark rings formed around her eyes showing signs of neglect and fear. She wasn't going back.

On Fridays we have free writing when we can write about any thing in our imaginations. I chose a picture and decided to describe it. I like this peice because I really described how the person was feeling.

The cube

As I walked in through the double glass doors the smell of chlorinated water whipped into my nose. It was too late to turn back now. I was here for a reason. My head was yelling at me to get  in the water. I ignored it. The clear water was casting a reflection of the millions of people in the stands. Red, white and blue flags stretched across the large pool. I raced into the bathroom to get changed. I opened the door and millions of eyes were cast on me. They were whispering. I had exited out of the changing rooms in my pitch black togs with a big white  fern wrapping around my waist.

The leadership conference

We took our seats and waited for the first speaker to enter onto the stage.

We listened to three speakers and then the last speaker entered onto the stage.

He was the head boy from HBHS named Joe. He told me that everything thing makes a difference no matter how small. And that we can choose our attitudes and you can also change your attitude. He spoke in a very well thought out and motivating way. He spoke to us as young leaders. It was a day full of interesting presentations.

Electronics

The Senior students from our school go to HNI every Thursday and this is what I did. 

Buddy writing

They grey cat swam across the cold, sparkly blue pool. Her tail was swishing behind her. Her paws were as soft as feathers. Her ears are as pointy as a cone. Her eyes were as green as grass. Her nose was as pink as a rose. The water was moving around the soft, grey cat and was as blue as the sea. She tried hard to get to the other side.

My buddy, Georgia aged 6, and I created a story relating to the picture. We had to write a descriptive piece with things such as similes, metaphors and personification.
