Mourning the miners.

On 2.30 pm another gas explosion happens
In where the miners were. For me it was really sad
because they died. Heaps of kids have no father and
wives with no husbands also sisters with no brothers
and brothers with no other brother too. I really feel
sorry for them and I even cried when we were in class.
I really do hope the mums,brothers,sisters will still
feel happy that part of them are still in their heart.

My new hair doo

On Friday me, my mum and brother went over to my friends house to get a new haircut and to get our hair dyed.
It was my very first time getting our hair dyed.
The hair looked awesome because nearly eveything was on an angle.
Also Deann changed my hair color to gold but not my whole head was gold , parts of my my hair was still black.
We went home and I couldn't stop thinking about it.

What do you think?
P.S. This was written on an iPod touch. Pretty cool !

Harry potter 7

Yesterday I  went to Harry potter 7 with my mum. When we got there mum realised that I was not going  to stop bouncing so she said how are you going to stop moving? So I said I have no idea! Our gate was gate 7 so me and mum walked in and sat down.When the adds ended the movie started and it was the best one yet. My favourite part was when they found the sword of Griffindor. I'm really lucky that I got to go.  By Mia M

People used sticks, lolly rappers, and all kinds of stuff we can find.We like to learn creative stuff for a change so we do different stuff every day.

Going to Australia

In the holidays I went to Australia with my Mum ,Dad and Brother. We went to the plane at 3:00 at night .After the plan ride we went to get our rental car and then we had to drive in the car for about an hour or 2. Once we got to my Auntie's house I went to see my little second cousin Kadin and my cousin. Straight away I wanted to see their two pet snakes and their dog Meeka. Since it was now late I went to bed. The next day I woke up and went to play with Kadin . A couple days later we went to our other place that we were staying in.The next day we went to Wet'n'wild water world with Scarlett and Sophie . I think we went on all the rides we were allowed on. The next day we went to Sea World.  I only got to go on one ride because I wasn't tall enough . Then it was the last day and we went to Movie World. It rained so we didn't  go on anything so we decided to go to the plane and head home.

Sophie and Scarlet save the day

On Monday me and Scarlet saved two birds that Sippie (cat) nearly killed but me and Scarlet saved the birds. One had a big patch of blood by it's leg and the other bird was badly injured. Sippie put his tooth into the bird's brain and the feathers were dodgey. We locked Sippie in the bathroom and let the birds rest outside and then they flew away. I hope they are now ok.
