Movie Review

1. It needs the names of main actors.
2. A small description of the movie.
3. What the movie is called.
4. Who the director is.
5. Your opinion.


Pacific Rim is an amazing movie with the acting talents of Charlie Hunnam, Idris Elba, Rinko Kikuchi, Charlie Day and Ron Perlman. This movie was directed by Guillermo del Toro.

The storyline of the movie is that creatures are breaking through a monster gate in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. So mankind build giant robots to defend Earth. But only certain people can pilot this robot these people need to have the drift. A drift is a special bond between two pilots of the robot. It means that they can sense what each other  are going to do by bonding through memories. Will man kind be able to protect themselves from the monsters??

In my opinion this is a great movie with a mix of giant robots and huge monsters. And I would definitely watch it again.

I recommend this to people who love monsters, giant robots and fighting.

TBC orientation day

Today we went to TBC orientation day. At the orientation day we watched all the year 9s do the haka. Then we split off into our class groups. The class groups are the classes that we will be in next year. I got into the accelerant class along with a few class mates. After we found out that we got an envelope and a personality sheet which we had to fill out. Then we went for a walk around the school and went into the GYYT. In there Mr Cook told us we got into accelerant and gave us a bit more information about the school. At the end we all got ice blocks and hopped on the bus to go back to school.

Description of a photo.

Cars packed trying to get out of the area. Trying but for most, failing. This is a common day for all man kind in this generation. This is all because of the infection. At least half the worlds population is now gone, taken those creatures. Skies now as black as coal burnt to a crisp and most the clouds are caused by smoke from destroyed factories. The smell of toxic fumes fills the air and the taste of nuclear power in everyones mouth from the fallen stations. Screams fill the ears of millions of innocent people. Honking cars mute out all other sounds. The air is thick and feels musky. Destroyed buildings and shelters lying on the ground, now useless rubble.

animal test

On the animal test there are 4 different personalities. Otter, Golden Retriever, Lion, and Beaver. I was pretty well rounded in my scoring, I scored about the same percent for all of them. But the next closest one was Beaver at 26%. 4 of the thing to have a better attitude is to. Dump dumb thoughts, Try something knew, help others, make new friends.

12 hour relay.

12 hours of running sound pretty hard.
But this event you get a rest free card.
after each lap you do you get a break.
Where you could eat chocolate or even a steak.
So it may not sound as hard anymore.
Until you get home and your legs are so sore.
Even if you only run 3 or 4 laps.
You really want to go home and have a long nap.
Now it's all over but it was great fun.
We all go home ans say goodbye to the sun.
