Where am I?

I am in a place where people are normally shouting and cheering.

All different ages of people compete in this place.

It has been renamed once.

Famous sport players have competed inside it.

You can buy food while you watch or wait for a game.

It has a lot of courts but one court can be used for lots of different games.

My holiday

In the holidays I didn't do very much but I did do some fun things. When the holidays started I was basically on my computer the whole time then my Mum made me ring up a friend and ask them to come over so I rang my friend Ben. Him and his brother came over (because my brother is friends with his) and we went straight on the computers again. We watched a movie at the movies called Pacific Rim and it was awesome. Then we went to miniput at Memorial Park Ben won and my brother lost. We played on the playground a bit after that and then got picked up. I ended up getting sick just before they left so we watched Fast And Furious 6 and Ben and his brother went home. Then on the Saturday my brother got his friend Neeson over. Then we all played computer. We all went and watched the Lone Ranger at the movies which was funny and cool. Then we went home and played computer. In the second week of the holidays my brother and I went over to Bens house. We went up to the swings for a bit but then we came back and played Black Ops 2 while Cody and Daniel (Our brothers) played on the computer. We would switch over every 2 hours so then Ben and I would be on the computer and Cody and Daniel would play Black Ops. We kept swapping over until it was lunch time.  

Term2 Overveiw

In this term there has been lots of awesome and exciting events like the production, cross country and our class camp. Our class camp was on the first week back and we went to Nguamuwahine for a week. Then in term 8 was the whole school cross country. The cross country is 3 kilometres long and in the middle of winter. Running isn't my strongest physical activity so I came 105th out of 300. But my highlight by far was definitely the production. For the production I ended up getting the main part so I had to practice most days. I had 2 weeks out of class in week 8 and 9 and I loved preforming on stage.

I've already said my highlight which was the production but my lowlight was. Well honestly I don't really have a lowlight, this term has been awesome. The only thing I didn't really enjoy the cross country because it was tiring.

Homework Activity

A7 Complete 3 Icas choices.

This year I have decided to do 3 Icas tests. So far I have only finished one Icas choice which was computer skills. I have not got the results back yet but im not sure I did too well. I have also chosen English and Maths which are both in term three. Last year I got credit for my maths test and im hoping to get higher than that this year. I did quite bad in computer skills last year too. I have not tried english yet though.

Homework Activity.

E6: Join a production and attend every rehearsal.

This year Tauranga Intermediate School has made a production based on the movie Bill and Teds excellent adventure. It's called A Most Triumphant Tale and I got chosen for the lead role. There are three lead roles Phil (me), Ed (Liam) and Starman (Matthew). It's about a band called Labyrinth who enter a band battle and try to beat their rivals One Dimension. But then all of Labyrinths band members leave except for the drummer and the bass player (Phil and Ed). Then Starman comes from the future in his Time Traveller Express or the Phone Box Thingy. They travel through time to get some new band members like Jimi Hendrix and Mozart but they make some accidental stops along the way. But will they get some amazing musicians and beat One Dimension or will they run out of time?

Ive had to rehearse most days in block one and two but over the last two weeks I was in the hall all the time. But on the second week I was up at Bay Court the whole time. We did two Matinees and three night shows. There were a few technical difficulties at the beginning but our final show only had one or two which is much better than the rest. I was surprised that I didn't feel that nervous and was looking forward to getting on stage even if I did have to wear make up.
