Sunny Days

On both Saturday and Sunday my family visited the beach.

Saturday morning, we drove all the way down to Orewa Beach up North. We just sat in the sun enjoying the warm, rays of sunshine and the fresh wind. Orewa Beach is one of my favourites because of the actual beach itself. There are hardly any sharp shells that pierce into your feet or rough rocks that hurt to walk on. Another thing I like about the Orewa Beach is the water. It's clearer than most beaches in Auckland let alone New Zealand.

The next day we decided to take my dog out for a joy ride. We didn't know where we were heading but somehow we needed up at Omana Beach. What a sight! There was a beautiful scenic view of the beach. Omana is simular to Orewa but not as nice. The beach is much smaller but they are looking after one of New Zealand's endangered species.

Overall I had an amazing weekend.

What an Old Bag!

During the winter holidays I made many happy, sad and angry memories.

On the first week of the holidays I turned 13 years old! My family and close friends celebrated my birthday 8 days earlier because on my birthday weekend I went on a little business trip down to North Islands, Wellington! My parents and I spent two days in hotel that was once a police department. It was exciting but the one thing I really disliked was the elevator. It was old and nosiy.

While in Wellington, we visited Te Papa. The musuem of Wellington. There were 6 levels to explore and two very tired family members trying. By the time we reached the really drains your energy.


Overall, my time in Wellington was super exciting. In general, I had an amazing holiday!

Lucky One

Family

Family… Why is family important to me? My family are my closes friends. I have a Samoan family so, my family is quite big. I live with 5 people plus one puppy and one cat. Some people don’t even have families so I am lucky I have one.

Family:

F is for “ Forever together no matter what “.

A is for “ Always there for each other “.

M is for “ Making lots of memories to remember “.

I is for “ Incredibly fun “.

L is for “ Laughing together “.

Y is for “ Yawning together making funny faces “.

Write about it!

Write your own speech about something important to you. Church? School? Family?

Why is it important to you?

On Monday for reading my group had to write a speech about something important to us. It's not much but it's something. I find it really sad that some people don't even have families but, people with families shouldn't take it for granted.

Day 9: Time To Meet The Family!

In my family I'm the only child. I live with my mum, dad, nana, papa and my cousin, Chloe. My auntie and cousin, Ardyn are staying with us for the time being. My dad's family is Chinese but mostly Samoan and my mum's side of the family is Fijian. There are 8 people in my house but usallly there's 6. Do I do chores? Well... I try my best to clean up but my house get's dirty so fast! Also I'm a bit lazy. My dad runs a gym called "Strength Tech". We go there in the weekends or other wise we try to go there in the week. There you go facts of the truth.
