Singapore The Cleanest City In The World.

Imagine having no chewing gum or you will be arrested,Or not being able to spit or litter, Have you ever thought about why those goverment people wear those wigs? Well today I learnt from Ryley's government slide show that you are not aloud to spit or chew chewing gum. And Nicole her slide show about those people wearing those wigs. Our teacher told us that we had to find  out what would happen if you found a chewing gum wrapper what would happen to you? and why they wear those wigs.Well those  people wear those wigs to show their maturity and wisdom, Older people who had white wigs were wiser, More mature and knowledeable The longer the wig the more important you are. I could not find out about the chewing gum one but I found a video about it here is the link........

Fun Run

You know just beacause you put the word fun infront of run does not make it fun! Like how last Wednesday we had our school fun run. A fun run is were you dress up really goofy and it's  pretty obvious you run and collect sponsors to do so.

Our class theme for the fun run was sports player or just up like your a Netball player or something. So I went as a tennis player I didnt have a great outfit but Renee did and she won best outfit. We got dressed at morning tea and was looking at everyones outfits it was very cool
after morning tea it was time to make our way to the top field.

We got told what to do and were to run and how much laps we had to run which was 5k. We waited for our turn to run and finally it was our time to run. I kept on running and running and running but after like 40 minutes it semt like forever but I finally did it yay,that is the last time I run 5k.

Well after all the hard work it sure did pay of! I don't know how much I raised but im sure glad that it is over!

OWWW!!!

It was about a month ago since I slammed my middle finger in the car door! Although it didn't hurt that much because I have slammed my finger in the car door so many times I have just gotton used to it.

After that stupied thing happend I found out my nail was coming of! I asked my dad about what I should do  but he was not much help  he just told me to ask my Mum so I did and she just told me to put a plaster on it so I did.
But  before I thought it would be a smart thing to take my paster of .When I was gonna play a rough game of dodge ball.  I got hit really hard on the same hand as my sore finger and it started to bleed and pretty bad to. so I had to leave that game of dodge ball and go get a new plaster.

But just last night I started to get sick of my stupied nail so I asked my Mum if I could take it of she said that I can it would just be really painful. I got the nail clippers and took that sucker of. She was right it was painful but not as painful as I thought it would be.

So what I learnt and I had to learn the hard way is to try be more careful around doors because if you don't you might have to suffer what I had to go through. And trust me you do not want to have your nail come of!

40 Hour Famine!

This weekend I did the 40 hour famine. The 40 hour famine is were you have to give up something for  40 hours I gave up food.  And you collect sponsers for it and the money goes to kids in Mali and Niger to have food all year round!!!!

It was very hard doing the famine. On Saturday I went to my sisters ballet and after go out for lunch. My sisters ate in front of me it was very hard watching them eat.
And for tea they had chicken and it was very hard not to eat it.


But after 40 hours my dad took me and my sisters out for lunch I ate so much it was pretty unlike me to eat that much. and so far the famine has raised 348,922 dollars. It is a really good thing to do the famine and I got over 40 dollars for doing it and that can feed 7 kids for a long time. I think I might do the famine again next year!!

Cross country

I was so scared, so frightend have I ever been this scared before in cross country? I don't think so but when I heard the teacher blow the whistle I new that I had no choice I had to run.

I was keeping a steedy pace with Shannon. My knees were trembling the hot sun was not helping at all people were passing me I felt hopless I passed a few people but not enough to make my goal to top 100. I looked back there were not that many people behind me so I knew that I was near the back so then I just decided to give up.

But then there were teachers and collage kids yelling and screaming telling me that I am almost there. I decided to give it my all and when I got up to the back gate I sprinted as fast as I could and when I got to the finish line I was so proud that I finished the race.

The teacher handed me a little pink card I looked at it and it said 90 so I was very proud of myself that I did my goal and got into the top 100!!!!!
