It had been 2 hours since the clock chimed twelve. My friends were still having pillow fights and throwing pop-corn around, they were also playing loud thumping ROCK&ROLL music and were dancing around. The pattering feet were making a continuously annoying noise and tickling feathers from the pillows were wavering in front of my nose. HOW was I get to sleep? I shrunk deeper and deeper into my sleeping bag and YAWNED- mouth opening as wide as a hippopotamus. Looking around, I saw a pair of earmuffs. Quickly, my fingers crept out and reached for them. I nabbed it just before someone was going to see. Putting them on, I buried my head inside the blankets and slowly drifted off to sleep......

Can You Guess How I Am Feeling?
We have been learning to describe our feelings without telling the reader
I told myself not to look down, I was at Tree adventures. I was so high up my hands were shaking. I thought the plank would collapse and the harness would break and I would fall. I felt like I was 100 metres in the air but I was only like 40 metre high. My head had a picture of nothing. I did not know what was going on. My friend Jordan helped me across; I was so relieved that I made it across.

Moody Moments . . .
As I slowly walked on the smooth grey path near the bakery I stopped, I sniffed the air. My tummy began to gurgle and grumble. As I stared at the food in the bakery my mouth began to water, sweat trembled down my cheeks. My tummy rumbled and squirmed even more, it wouldn’t stop. Before I knew my face was sitting right against the glass window. I licked my lips. I rubbed my hands together, sweat appeared. I couldn’t stop my nose, tummy, hands or sweat, it just kept carrying on. I couldn’t help it, plus there was nothing else to do, so I followed the delicious scent into the bakery.

Can You Guess How Im Feeling?

Moments!
I kept on pushing myself I couldn’t handle any more. I kept my place in fifth. One more lap to go I could do it. But soon I had to breathe through my mouth; and it felt so dry like a parched desert my legs felt like jelly. I could see the finish line barely on the horizon fifty strides and then I could make it. But for some reason my legs suddenly felt like steel blocks but I didn’t stop I kept on pushing myself and then just then... yes I did it I crossed the finish line!

Can You Guess How I Am Feeling?
We have been learining to describe how we are feeling without telling the reader. Can you guess how I am feeling?
I was in Samoa; my grandma gave me some raw fish. My stomach was grumbling at me, everyone was staring at me. I couldn’t move anywhere, unless someone would carry me. My stomach was grumbling more and more. I was thinking in my head, “Why did I ever eat that fish?”
I had butterflies in my stomach , my face was turning red, I was getting really hot and I couldn’t sleep. My brother had told me that everyone was praying for me to feel better.
I woke up the next morning; I was bouncing off the walls like nothing had ever happened to me last night.

cheering I said shhhhhhh because I was concentrating it was fun when we were doing a
competition and I did the Crazy Ladder.I got 16 points we had to have two people on
each thing. We were Dare Devils. Beverages won.

Action World
Yesterday I went to Action World.I went on this place called the jousting bridge. I versed a person in my class called Joel then I took a really bad first shot and ran away and went down the bouncy castle and I won. I went on the high wire and I kept on falling off. The high wire was a big long rope high in the air that you have to walk across without holding anything. The whole Action World was based on bouncy castles. There was also this place called the jump n' slide. You jump of a cliff and slide down a big slide.

I liked Action World because the obstacle course was fun. My favourite part was the big swing.
You swing twice and when the lady says Now! you let go and you land on a boucey thing. It goes very high I went on it two times. It was fun and a bit scary for me. Because it was a bit high. I want to go to Action World again!:)

After morning tea they blew up the brigde which we could fight people on. I won a lot of times. It was the best trip out of the whole year !
Action World
The thing I like about Action World is the big long slide and jump.When I went on the trapeze and the jungle bars I felt I was flying and I was so happy. The most fun was when we got to go around and explore Action World,trying our best and of course people cheering and the competition and Action World was so huge.When we came 2nd I was so proud of our group.We had such fun.The rides I like most was the big long slide and jump and watching the older people do tricks on the trapeze.I had so much fun and loved the games it was so cool.When it was the end of the day and we had to go back to school I was so unhappy because we finished our turn at Action World.
