My Day Of Marching

On one beautiful sunny Monday morning I wake up and get ready for the big day ahead. First I have breakfast, then I make my bed and do my room, I had a shower and got dressed. Once I had finished getting sorted I packed my bag and got in the car to go pick up my friend. You may be wondering where I was going while I was going to my marching. We did a whole day. 

As mum walked us in I could see the other 12 girls and my coaches. I could hear the girls talking about what they had done in the holidays so far. The most funny story was a couple of the girls went to Hamner Springs together and got dared to fall into the cold pool at night they did it and came out shivering. I felt super excited and nervous. I was nervous because I was scared to stuff up, I was excited because this is my first season of marching.

Once we started we learnt our positions. We then learnt our counts. My counts are - On the spot, Up 1 pace, up 1 pace, on the spot, up 1 side pace right, 4 paces to the right, 1 side pace right up 3 paces, cross through 15 paces, up 3 paces, up 1 pace, left 1 side pace. These may sound confusing but I understand them almost perfectly.

After we had learnt our positions counts and actions we had lunch. We had PIZZA! When the pizza arrived we went out to the hall to eat. I could smell the pizza and chips making me super hungry. I could hear my stomach growling like a bear coming out of hibernation telling me it was time to eat. I could feel the heat on my hands as I pick up a single slice of pizza that is as hot as a heat pump when turned on. I could see the cheese and toppings spread and melted all over the Pizza. I could taste the cheese and feel it getting stuck to the roof of my tongue. While we were eating I drank my drink I had an up and go chocolate flavour. Once we had finished our food I felt as big as an elephant.

Going Under

It was a beautiful clear sunny day and my 2 friends and I were about to take a swim in the ocean. As we get into our swim suits I start to feel excited but nervous, happy but sad, worried but fearless. It was like I was on an emotional roller coaster.  I could smell the salty water.

It was finally time to dive into the water. I touched the water with my toes to see how cold it was. To be honest with you it was actually pretty warm. So we dived in. As I dived in I felt like I was falling deep below the air surface. I was so excited to see all the amazing wildlife that I took off without my friends.

 As I went lower and lower into the water I saw sharks with jaws as big as a truck, Whales that were as long as a train, Fish as round as a drink bottle. 

I finally found what I had been looking a stingray. I touched the stingray and got stung by the stingray. I had to try get back to find the others luckily they were following me and managed to get me back to the shore. When we were back on the shore 

We walked to the life guards who said that I would be ok. I sighed in relief. We then went to get burgers, fries and ice-cream. My burger was so small it was about the size of my hand and was only about 10 cm tall. I got about 92 fries in my large pack of fries. My ice cream was about 30 cm tall from the bottom of the cone to the top of the ice cream. My ice cream was just plain vanilla so I scrapped my fries along the sides of it.

We then headed home and I went to bed. It had been a very long day.

Poems For My Grandad

I made these first three in remembrance of my grandad who passed away last year. 

Poem 1. The news

I wake up the next morning clueless

To find out the bad news

I start crying, I am going to school regardless

He was gone he made a big move.

Poem 2.  Britians got talent

Hear the music play 

Watch the people dance and act

Feel the need to dance

Taste the hot chocolate with dinner.

Poem 3. Painting

I remember painting

Seeing the colours and nature on a canvas

The colours of the mixed paint

The master pieces on my wall.
