Electives (Some people are annoying)

Hello this week I will be talking about how my elective is going I chose Creative Computers which is where we make a movie and play Minecraft. One thing I don't understand is how do people not understand how to coil up a mouse or put away a computer some people don't know where to put their computer one instance is someone had put the new computers from rm11s cow into the cow in room 12. Even though they took the computer from rm11 they still put it back in the rm12 cow.

I feel like the first few weeks of Creative computers has been good my group has recorded everything but we have yet to go on the server. one thing that happened on the Minecraft server is Someone placed water all over our island (they said they thought it was their island I did not believe this).

We have been learning how to build stuff on Minecraft (not really) And we have also been learning how to make movies (True).

Is it what I had expected..... yes because I have been doing creative computers ever since I was able to join.

What can I do to get the most out of my elective I can make it so if someone's being a downer not let them get through to me and make me feel bad/sad. I can also make it so if someone breaks something I've made in Minecraft or when we edit our movie someone deletes all the progress we've made not let that make me angry.

Tip: if someone's being a downer and making you feel sad as if you were an outcast the most you can do is smile because smiling will make you feel much better.

THATS ALL FOR THIS WEEK

Castles (are old) team work (can be annoying)

Hi  guys last week we had to build castles (I felt like my group was the best). The aim was to build a castle from paper, The thing was we had to build our own nets so it got kind of annoying at times when all I wanted to do was just relax and have a break but I was told I had to make more things. I made something like 9 buildings compared to some peoples 0 which was very annoying because it meant I had done more work than them as they just sat back and relaxed when I deserved some time off. Some people in my group walked off to do tasks which left me and Avania to do a whole lot more work. The annoying thing was that on Friday me and Avania had done all of our tasks and the other two hadn't so I got really annoyed when I was told I had to make another few buildings I just wanted to throw everything down and runoff but no I had to hold strong and complete the castle. 

Sorry about the rant I just had to vent some stress/announce from me and bring it out into the air.


Now getting to the questions, I felt that when we were working as a team and not all separate we did quite good we all seemed to agree on things and it just happened.




How we decided on things we sort of just put up the idea and if the others liked it we would use that idea and use it to make things look better, like I thought of putting banners on the front towers. So we did and it makes it look way better.

Some of the problems were what I said earlier That some people walked away and some people didn't fold anything or make any nets like I did (I did get help from Avania, I made the nets and she folded them because I cannot fold anything).

Sorry about all the ranting and allbut this just brought up so... many... emo....emotions sorry sorry

*Walks off crying*

Bye I guess

Cross Country (sort of)

Hi guys so on Tuesday we had the cross country I didn't participate I had reasons sort of (not really but who really cares it is almost a sort of child labor I was exercising my rights). So did I enjoy it yes because me and Katherine stood in the furthest corner directing people round the cone. What we did was just stand their and talk but we still did our job I supported the people running (When they came of course).

Well since I didn't run or anything I Have to say when I demonstrated perseverance earlier in the day when we were making nets in math. I think I demonstrated perseverance when we had to cut out our nets and make them into their cuboid form because I got not very happy with the gluing it together stage but I just carried on with it.
So going back to the cross country (Which is really forwards) I saw Aidan Watson persevere through the race even though he was finding it really hard he kept going.

So we are keeping on with the theme of cross country and School values. The next one is Empathy I saw Riley and Mahon supporting each other even though they were still moving they were talking and just having a good time.

So that's it for this week see you next time I guess.

EndGame the training diaries-It's a book I read in the holidays

Endgame the training diaries is a book about all these different people from different really old tribes that believe their masters would come back down and make their plays play in the endgame.
Players are people that have trained all their lives to play and serve their tribe. Endgame is believed to be the end of the world and the players play to save their tribe and the rest of humanity.
Endgame the training diaries has all three volumes of the series.

All the symbol on the cover of the book -------------------->
show every tribe that believes in the story offend game with players and the symbol for endgame.

I liked that every player had it's own chapter and is explained. All the different players had a different story behind them.

I would rate this book 4.5/5

Sorry for this being quite short but I don't want to spoil the story for people that want to read this book. but that's all for this week.

What did I do in Easter

Well hello I'm back yes yes no need to give me a round of applause "Thank you thank you I know I know I am amazing."

What did I do to help others well I... I... I set the table and I... I... I did the laundry. I bought a game for my brother that was nice wasn't it.

 Their reaction was alright cause I'm normally just so nice (when they ask me to do it).

What other fun things did I do well well well absolutely nothing really except watch Youtube








Sorry about the short post it's just there aren't many things to say.


one last question do you see smiley faces or frowney faces   :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):

I jumped off a bridge..... (into water) At camp

It was way bigger this little thing.
(but it fits in with all the Simpsons stuff I put on)

So hi I'm back from a week out in the bush away from internet and cell phone reception at the camp called Hillary outdoors education centre. What did I find most challenging I hear you asking well at the beginning it was making myself do the heights  but once I started to get used to it went really far. One of things we did was abseiling at the high ropes course to get up to the drop we had to climb up a massive rock wall. At first I was thinking I would only go 2/5 of the way up but I just forgot about my goal and kept going and going up to the top where Mahon said "m'lady." So yeah then the other challenging thing was the beginning of the cave but I just powered through and all the glow worms sort of pushed me through all the hard times.

What did I find easy well if you count not having control of your body as you plummet towards a freezing cold river. Canoeing I found quite easy because I am used to rowing an

d stuff like that so it wasn't such a struggle except the fact that I was sitting on a bar in the middle. The thing with sitting on a wooden bar is that it stazrts to hurt very quickly so I just tried to shuffle round and fined a comfortable position it didn't happen.

I believe I can fly
(It was our team theme song)

It was kind of what I expected but not really the food I was expecting to be bad but the rest just blew me away. I had heard stories of the flying fox but still it surprised me.
My proudest moment was probably getting to the top of the really big rock climbing wall because normally I can baerly start but all the support and tips from my friends was great.
My favourite moment was probably being on the flying fox and looking down to the river that was absolutely beautiful. The fact that I got to hang over it and only hear the sound of the river rushing down and the birds singing it was just great.

CAAAAAAAAAAAAAMP!!!!!! (next week) :)

What things do I need to do to make camp fun for others, one is have a good time and enjoy stuff that I don't even like like the high ropes. be kind to other people and support them even if they say they can't do it.  Have a clean area like in my chalet so if people want to walk around they don't have a really big mess in their way.

HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLOOOO people that read and hopefully comment on my blog this week I will be talking about my pre camp thoughts. What am I looking forward to well just being around my friends the whole time will be fun and being away from my brother as well. The activities I hope to enjoy are the ones that don't involve being really high up. 

What I'm nervous about is the high ropes mainly because for some reason I don't trust the clips or the rope even at the year six camp I was afraid to go on the low ropes and the flying fox. So the high ropes are going to be hard for me and I feel that since I'm on of the tallest people it is harder for me because I see things from a higher height.

 
One thing I remember from year six camp was the obstacle course you know the bit at the end where you had to go down the hill backwards holding onto the rope I did not trust the rope even though it was around a tree and it was quite thick didn't trust it. 


So that's it for this week leave a comment please.


P.S. It will only be my second camp I've been to.
