that was hanmer

That was hanmer

remember when you were turning a sharp corner, feeling your back wheel skid?

feeling the edge of the track

hearing your brakes squeak

smelling the fresh air gently push against your face

that was hanmer

remember walking into your cabin placing your bags wherever they could fit

seeing the doll looking beds

smelling that grandma perfume smell

hearing the birds tweet outside

that was hanmer

remember sneaking into your next door neighbour's room

hearing mr.Wood walk in

felling the wall push against your back

smelling his breath if he already knew you were hiding

that was hanmer

remember the hot pool like the super bowl or the sopher?

seeing the amazing view from the top of the building, waiting in line memorizing everything

hearing all the laughter making this night one that is almost unforgettable

smelling the sopher relaxing your mind, making you worry less and less

hanmer springs: tree climbing

may, 20th, 2015 the day i went to hanmer springs. it was a great experience for a camp that was enjoyable because of the activities speaking of witch the activities/what we did while we were there >:)  one of the activities we did there was tree climbing, i myself and a lot of other enjoyed it, all you had to do was well climb just with some safety, there were 2 trees you could climb. one has 3 courses you could go all leaded by small, medium and big, the 2nd tree had 2 courses both leading up to the same length of hight. after we finished climbing both trees at least once or twice! we got milk crates and got somebody to stand on top of them while constantly stacking them. the man that instructed us hunter called this the twin towers, there were 2 teams and the aim of the goal was to build your tower higher than the other teams. in my team we got 15 yet somehow *cough cough grown ups cough cough* with a score of 16 witch is quite sad honestly

te matatini

te matatini, one of the greatest kapahaka festivals in Newzealand and i'll be there along with my class though. sadly news reporters stated that it would rain on this event, i was quite annoyed when we arrived there because it did rain and knowing me i ignored all warnings and bran nothing but a t-shirt and shorts. i was lucky enough to get a plastic jersey from Elijah's mum and as soon as i did the rain stopped (sigh) tough love, tough love. when it was parsley good weather i started to watch the performances and boy where they good! everyone had a favorite, it was quite obvious when people started chanting there name. my personal favorite was te iti kahurangi, they had perfect timing for everything besides when they messed up (witch they barely did). after my class left i stayed with my mum along with my brother, she said  "you'll be meeting your cousins here, i haven't seen them in a few years so this should be great!" i was expecting family i had already meet witch it kind of was but i just said "who are they? have me and tuhi meet them before?" i asked "well when you where very young a doubt you'd remember them " later on i went to the bunji jumps, it was quite fun besides waiting in line for a good 15 minutes. when i hoped off i saw my mum with a massive group, when she said her cousins i was expecting just adults but there was quite a group of children my age. anyway after about 2 days we hanged out a lot and on Sunday i better give te matatini the attention of this story, at finals atleast 15,000 people came witch is quite big for New zealand. after the winner of te matatini was announced,  about 8 waita's where sang by the croud incluiding me, making it the greatest day for me

my country

shrekadonky

flag:

this flag represents shrek for the green, the blue stands for the smurfs that died here defending this land before we killed them, the trippiness represents how we created time travel and the red reminds us of our main fruit (akunamatata’s).

history:

the land that we now live on today was once owned by smurfs in 2456….when shrek and donkey sailed out from the shore of far far away they traveled here and used a fruit they found to kill the smurfs called akunamatata, the smurfs were allergic to them and the effect of eating them was….non-stop diarya, nausea, hallucination then leading them to sudden death. shrek and donkey claimed this land on the 12/4/2456.

capital: hogwarts

Hogwarts was first owned by harry potter until shrek swallowed him, the population there is now at 172,637,19. it is approximately 3700 killermeters big and contains over 700,000 motels.

main sports:

shreker games is shrekadonkey’s main sport, it includes 24 people going into shreks swamp. the aim of the game is to not get eaten by shrek. if the game goes for longer than 2 weeks the game will be canceled and the remaining players may leave. another sport is frozen, there is 4 males and 4 women that go in a snowstorm, all of the players must fight to the death by doing a spitball fight until dragons are released by snotlout. then they must try and take down the dragon to win the frozen games.

map:

trading:

shrekadonkey’s trades are very well known because of our rare items. we trade fruit, plants, materials and other building sources. we know that other country’s will not betray or some how trick us, because if they do we pull out our transformers.

this is optimischicken.

king and queen:

shrek for some reason did not ask/want to be king of a country he found. he handed the Throne to king arthur and made  princess leia queen of shrekadonkey but later on donkey rised up to the throne and his wife (the dragon) ate princess leia.

population:

shrekadonkey has a population of 3.7 billion people. thats 37% of the world population, the city that contains the most people is nuketown. it contains 1.7billion people and is around 5-7 thousand killermeters big and uses half of the country’s resources.

memory

memory

i remember at the age of 4 i was sitting by the fire inside a warm house. i felt a bit alone because my dad was working, my brother was asleep and my mum was getting wood. i went to see my mum out by the shed she was chopping wood. splitting it in half putting a thought in my mind saying that looks rather simple, so as my mum went to go inside with some firewood i ask her if i can chop some wood she says “hold up” but from the distance between us my ears thought she said “yes.” some how i manage to lift the axe and swing it. the first swing was rather easy but pulling it out was hard. after i used most of my strength to pull the axe i lost control and in a matter of seconds i hand the sharp tip of the axe go right into my toe. i remember me screaming in extreme pain i see my mum come she picks me up and rushes me inside, she grabs a cloth to stop my fluids from spreading but it bearly helps, she says that the ambulance are on the way not that i knew what the ambulance were at the time but as soon as they arrived i remember going to sleep and when i woke up i saw lights flashing i remember seeing those lights the same way every single time i goto the hospital. they asked me what foot hurts? i remember i couldn't even speak i was in so much pain that i was crying for the entire time but by the time i stopped i was back asleep. i woke up feeling better my mum looks at me with joy and my father just arrived at the time and he looks at me glad to. 7 years later i am scared with a deformed toe i had 18 stitches and the marks are still there until today.

Zero draft

1. exaggerate
2. talk about an object like if it is human
3. use detail and punctuation

Example: as i touched the sharp edges of the tin. i feel the tip of my index finger leak with blood. somehow bleeding more then enough. i take my revenge by sticking a device in its head twisting it. turning it until the shell of his skull is ripped off from the rest of its body. as my revenge continues i decide to go further and rip out its origins. i put them in my mouth using a object perfectly curved but not good enough to stop the vital fluid drip from my mouth.
