A movie Review

The sisters keeper. 

The sisters keeper is about a girl who gets cancer, the parents decide the only way is to have a donor child. The donor child is forced to give parts of her body to her sister so that her sister can reman alive. At one stage when the donor child is older she can chose not to give parts anymore, but no she wants to stop giving parts of her body to her sister now, she wants to be able to do things by herself, and live her on life. Or is it something else?

This movie is a wonderful movie for a family to watch together, the movie is very sad and means something. It is based on a true story. The director of this movie is Nick Cassavetes. The movie came out on June 26 2009. I recommend watching this movie it is one of the most sad movies I have ever seen. 

Girls College Orentation

Today Tauranga Girls College had there orientation day so the year eight girls went to the college to get shown around. When we arrived there we sat down in the gymnasium and Mrs Ferguson talked to us a bit about the school and the expectations. We then got split up into lines and we went around the school. They showed us were everything was and told us a bit about how the school works, and what happens. We then went into a room and the teacher talked to us about the stationary and the houses. We then got given booklets, and made our way to the buses and headed back to school.

Five sences

As I drove down the motorway looking into the distance I could see what used to be a forest now just a big black sploge surrounded by big tall buildings. I looked around only to see cars waiting to get into town. I can hear peoples horns,  they are all in a rush to get there I don't know why there is nothing there anyway, the ticking from my watch is drive me insane it keeps on reminding me of how much time we have left, until the whole world is like this. I can smell oil everywhere it is actually very sickening. As I peer down to my left I look at the air freshener and holed it close to my face so that I can smell something fresh and not deadly.  I can feel my hands starting to sweat as I grip onto the handle bars tightly, what has happened to this world. I can taste the oil fumes surrounding me as if I was the only thing that wanted.

Dialouge

behavior

"Nicole how do you think you behavior has been this year?" Miss Campbell asked.

"Umm I think it has been good, but I may have gotten off task a couple of times." Nicole explained.

"Yes you have worked well this year, and I agree you have gotten off task a couple of times, but you still work very hard and achieve the best you can." Explained Miss Campbell. "When you get off task all you need is a little reminder and then you are hard working again."

"Yeah that is probably true, all I need is a reminder to get on task."

Year 8 final assembly

"Ok in week ten on the tuesday we have the year eight final assembly you guys have to be on your best behavior.

Are there any questions?
Yes you." Mrs Mills asked.

"Do we have to go?" Asked someone the kid sitting at the back.

"YES! It is not optional." Mrs Mills replied. "So that is all the time we have to talk about this just remember to be on your best behavior."

Academic progress

"I was wondering do you know what your score is for maths?" Mr Scholes asked.

"Umm yes it is a 3p, that is my weakest academic score and I struggle a lot in maths," I replied.

"Ok how about your reading level."

"It is a 4b I am pretty proud of that score because I usually am not very good at reading and I can't find the time to read at home," I once again replied.

"That is very good Nicole," Mr Scholes said, "What is your writing score?"

"Writing is my strength and my score is 5b I am proud of that and love to do writing," Nicole explained.

Waimarino Shape poem

Waimarino,

very cold,

activities everywhere,

sitting in the spa,

while the rain fell down,

we did all of the activities,

the blob was scary,

day over,

wonderful. 

I did a attitude test to see what type of person I am. There were Lions which are leaders, Beavers which are smart, there are golden retrievers which are very kind, and there are otters which are fun. I am a otter that means that I am fun. I like to be creative and run around everywhere.

12 hour relay poem

As the cold chill started to disappear, we started to get ready for the run. The track didn't seem that long but running it was hard. Running no matter what the weather was no to bad because we were having fun together. As the day went on there were a few injuries along the way. One hour to go, people were starting to go slow, but we kept on trying to show that we were tough and strong and we could win the all along. But no we didn't 4th place we came.
