100 word challenge

100-word challenge

So in class today I did the 100-word challenge basically we have to write 

a story about a phrase or a picture in 100 words my phrase was "I was so cross that" 

so here it is.

One rainy day I was in my bedroom playing ps4, I was about to beat my high score of 10 when all of a sudden my sister turns off the internet, I was so cross that I threw my controller across the room and it snapped.   Later that night I had to explain everything to my parents I could tell that they were not too impressed and the next day I had to do chores all morning. But my sister then came and apologised because she felt bad, I said “It's alright” and we hugged it out. The end?

Drama Hurumanu: My poem

Drama Hurumanu: My poem

For drama Hurumanu this week we have been working on poems, such as name poems, or poems we can act out here's mine. Little backstory so this poem is about anxiety and how it would feel here it is.

Teardrops falling 

People brawling

Butterflies swarming

Lights flashing

Cameras Action!

Face hidden 

Feelings faked 

Mood change                                                                                               

Realistic state                                                                                                         

Frozen face                                                                                                              

Frostbite fingers

the fear inside slowly lingers

creeping towards the open chords 

I am slowly forced to BREAK!.

Then I realise it's all being staged inside my mind full of fear.

Brando "WildBoy" Yelavich: Book review

This week we are reading WildBoy the book here is most of the information I got from the book.

Reader review: This book had a alot of interesting facts I really liked it.

Brando“WildBoy" Yelavich

Brando Yelavich is also known as “Wild Boy” Got his name because he was the first person to walk the New Zealand coastline which is 15,000 kilometres long and on top of that filled with stretches of beach, sheer cliffs, sharp and slippery rocks etc. But there was still possibilities of hypothermia, drowning or even serious injury but that did not stop Wildboy for achieving his goals.

Brando said “I’d been told so many times that most people are ‘gunnas’”, Brando says “They’re gunna do this gunna do that. I decided to be a doer.

He also decided he wants to be self-sufficient along the way: Hunting, Fishing, and Foraging for food. Wildboy’s biggest challenge was surviving off the land sometimes the food was gross, sometimes it was good, and sometimes he didn't eat at all.

Brando yelavich Walked the coastline to raise 10,00 dollars for Ronald Mcdonald house he raised more than anticipated and managed to raise 30,00 dollars. Also after the big walk he writes the book wild boy and it went onto best sellers .
