What did you do in the Easter holidays? Well… I will tell you what I did. I left Hong Kong at 12: 30 am on Tuesday the last week of term 2. I arrived at the Incheon Airport at 4:30 am while you were probably sleeping. My grandfather thinking that we arrived at 6:30, picked us up in our car. On the following week we went to a place called Everland (somewhere like Disney Land but more fun). Then we slept in our aunt’s houses (because me and my sister like to play with our cousins). We had lots of fun and then came back to Hong Kong on Monday the first day of term 3 but we still had to go to school and it was very tiring.
This is what I did in the Easter holidays!
Barack Obama will be the president of the United States of America. There was a free concert at the Lincoln Memorial with Beyonce, Bruce Springsteen and U2 have parties, and parade that happens before the keys to the White House are given to Mr Obama from George Bush. On the 20th of January, Mr Obama will have coffee withe Mr Bush at the White House at 11a.m. The last drink of coffee didn’t happen after 1837 when Andrew Jackson hosted his successor, Martin Van Buren, until now. At the Capitol, guests will be entertained by the United States Marine Band. The San Francisco Boys and the San Francisco Girls will also perform. Twenty-thousand police officers and national guard troops will watch over the crowds and polices will search if anyone will try to get into a two square mile area surrounding the White House, U.S. Capitol and the Washington Monument.
Monday
The whole year group met at a meeting room in the Paradise Hotel. The meeting room was really big! We first started off with a quiz about guilin and China by Mrs Crawford. Then we did a Russian dance from Mr Loran.
Gabe competed in Mr Loran’s Russian dance When the competitors from different group did the Russia n dance it looked really, really hard. I mean I couldn’t even do it. The Russian dance was hard because you had to dance on your tip-toes and only on two feet. t the same time you had to sit down and balance your whole body. After Mr Loran’s dance it was Mrs Cole’s turn to do some quizzes about celebrities, then we did a game called ‘Who can do the back-bend the longest’ game also by Mrs Cole. In the ‘Who can do the back-bend the longest’ competition there was a tie . The winners were Chantal and Natasha Christensen. It was Mr Stanhope’s Cartoon Questions next. We knew all the answers thanks to Caver and Gabe. Then we did a Tea-pot dance. You had to sing and dance at the same time singing ,”I’m a little teapot”. I competed in the “I’m a little teapot’singing and dancing competition. I didn;t win but it was still fun and I didn’t really care that much. After that it was Mr Loran’s sports quiz time.The questions were not so hard since the boys in our group watch sports all the time. This was my favourite part because it was Mr Mac’s hip-hop dancing time. I was suprised that Gabe won the hip-hop competition not Izzy Da Costa. I thought Izzy was going to win because she is a very flexible girl. She is one of the people I know that is very flexible. I also thought Izzy was going to win because she was in Mr Mac’s group called the Mac Attack. After the hip-hop competition the group leaders announced the winners of who won the most points. We came in 3rd.
Today is halloween! Me and my friends were very excited about today because today is Halloween!Everybody in my school was all talking about Halloween.
Last year when I went trick or tricking there were a lot of decoration all around Headland. There were some spiders that you clap then the spider suddenly comes down. On the office station’s door (headland office station) there was a dead skeleton wearing a cape.
This year I changed my mind to do something new. I went to a halloween party at my Korean church. In the party they made cotton candy. When the priest made cotton candy you could choose a flavour like: strawberry, melon or orange. We also played games or actually I should call it dancing. I also got to have three tattoos one on my right arm, one on my left arm and another on my shin. It was funny how my sister put one on her palm and another on her foot (I mean the bottom of it). At the end of the party we got to take sweeties home! in my bowl of candies I had: two toffees, one Laffy taffy, one box of nerds, one tootsie lollipop and one packet of sweet tarts.
That’s how my 2008 halloween ends!
On Wednesday we went to the Wetlands.We were going to the wetlands so we could learn about the habitats and their adaptions. It took us an hour to get there! When we arrived in the Wetlands, the first thing we saw was a crocodile. Next we were supposed to be looking at frogs and turtles but we didn’t see frogs or turtles. But we saw four water snakes! While we were walking to see more nature, we found pink tiny balls stuck to one of the stems the near the lakes. Angel, the guide, said they were the eggs of golden apple snails! Angel also told us that the snail is big as an apple. The next things we saw were dragonflies and dimsenflies. I’ll tell you some differences between them. The first difference you can spot is the tail. A dimsenfly has a longer tail than that of the dragonfly. The second difference you can find is their eyes. The dragonfly’s eyes are big, and are not separated; in contrast, the dimsenfly’s eyes are small and separated.
In Canducal land, there lived Cloe and Ella, who were best friends forever because they had been friends from when they were one year old. Their mothers were friends since they were in primary school, too. Cloe’s father was the president of Canducal land, and this is why her parents always told her that she would be the president when she grew up. But she didn’t want to be the president of Canducal land, and she didn’t want to do what her parents said. She was the president’s daughter and that was why anybody near her, except Ella, would be strangled to death until they say sorry to Cloe.
One night, as Cloe was sleeping, she heard a noise and she looked around with baggy, sleepy eyes. All she saw was her pillows. But there was a kidnapper. He had gone into Cloe’s room, so quietly that Cloe didn’t wake up. He slowly pulled out his kidnapping bag and slipped it under Cloe’s body so that she couldn’t feel what he was doing. Cloe moved a bit so the kidnapper had to stop every time she moved.
The kidnapper, whose name was John, was 30 years old but wasn’t married yet because every time he met a girl, Cloe and Ella would show up and disturb them. That’s why he chose to work at the company called N.S.K.(short for nasty stupid kidnappers).
When Cloe woke up she found out she wasn’t on her cozy, fluffy bed her dad bought. She was in this horrible, puny room on a tiny sofa that just looked like garbage bins glued altogether.
Cloe also found out that tied up with chains all over her body.
Suddenly, John and his boss threw Cloe into the sea like a dead bird trying to fly.She flew down like a missile shooting against earth.
When Ella and her family were going to the beach she saw Cloe drowning in the sea with the weight wrapped around her body. They dove in the sea to save their friend but as soon as they tried to bring her up she wouldn’t budge from the sand. Ella’s parents tried to save her but they couldn’t because there was to much weight on her. So Ella and her mum had to call their friends as fast as they could in order to save Cloe, their friend. When Ella and her mum’s friends lifted up Cloe to the shore, Cloe couldn’t breathe or her heart wouldn’t beat normally. It didn’t beat at all! And she couldn’t breath for a long time.They were all sad because the doctor said her lungs were filled with water. He also said she would die less than a week.
