My writing sample

Every after school I get changed into my home clothes have my lunch always go on to my ipad and watch funny vines and videos, But mostly I love to watch this you tuber Superwoman.

Superwoman real name is lilly Singh and is Punjabi kind of like me, she is a you tuber but not like every you tuber on youtube, when she was young like how I am she you used to get bullied a lot, but she picked up herself by a fight her fear what are going to people think about and she let go. Whenever she felt down she used to call herself Superwoman because it helped to feel better about herself.

Now she is 25 years old and still does funny videos, in most of her videos is about how parents don't understand but she doesn't call her parents to actually do it she acts like them but not really like them because when she acts it out like if she is the parents but her parents are not in the video if you know what I mean. I noticed that she added bad words but doesn't say it that badly its funny but she makes up bad words.

Review:
when he was four James Henry Trotter had a happy life. he lived in a wonderful house with his Mother and Father, near a peaceful beach. 

One day James's mother and father went London to do some shopping sudden James's found out bad news that his parent were eaten by a angry rhinoceros that had escaped from the zoo. 

He had no where to go but he just had his 2 terrible aunts aunt Sponge and aunt Spiker and I am sorry for him because they were very terrible, selfish and awful people.

Aunt Sponge looked short and fat. she had small piggy eyes, a sunken month and one of those faces that looked exactly like if had been over-boiled so she was a over-boiled cabbage

Aunt Spiker on the other hand was skinny tall and bony, She wore steel rimmed spectacles. Whenever she spoke spit will come shooting out of her small mouth.
Quote in this
James's aunts, spiker and sponge, are always calling him names. They beat him and starve him making his life a misery. If only his parents hadn't been eaten by an angry escaped rhinoceros, he wouldn't be in this mess. But one day he meets a mysterious man who give him a bag of magic crocodile tongues and so begins the adventure of his dreams

A little bit about Irene Van Dyk

Hi today's article is about a sports woman named Irean Vandike, Irean Vandike is a professionally netball player, she plays for the sliver ferns, she is a inspiration to girls across the globe. The position that she used to play was shooter. Her shooting was pronominal in my words.

Sadly she has retired from playing netball but before she left this is what she said. The silver ferns have so much amazing talent and I know they will do the job. Fare well to Irene and hope she has fun with what ever she is doing in her life now.

About Sound

Samoan language week

On Monday our school started this morning with not just any kind of week, Samoan week. We all came in the hall to celebrate on Monday, it just carries on until this week ends, but we don't always come to the hall otherwise that would be boring.

I was really happy about it Because when it comes to cultural celebrations, I’m always happy learn about what they do, what they wear. While walking in through hall I saw the fiafia Samoan group that performed for fiafia and the Tamaki college people that performed before the fiafia.

As I sat down there were two students three special people sitting in the front facing the school, the two students who were sitting in front was Serenity and Christian, I wasn't sure About the other visitors.

The assembly was about to begin Mr Burt started talking I was so bored finally it was time for the national anthem suddenly Mr Burt had said we are singing three anthems 2 was Samoan and the other one of course was our NZ anthem when we finished singing the anthem Mr Burt started to talk and introduced us to the visitors.

Then it was time to show the performances, the first performance were little Samoan children singing Samoan lullabies, it was cute. after that the fiafia Samoan group that performed for fiafia went on stage to perform while they were performing I realized they were singing along it was awesome.

Last but not least the Tamaki college people that performed before the fiafia performed as well. Their first performance had a lot of people and when they sang it was with pride and loud, but the second time they performed there was small amount of people who performed but it still sound the same with pride, it never gets old.

Walking To School In The Cold


As I woke up in a freezing morning dawn, I uncovered myself with the blanket as I did that I felt the breeze brushing past my legs arms and hands. my hands started to turned blue, my  arms and legs were covered with goose bumps.
While walking through my bedroom door I yawned very slowly and without any sound.

After that I had my shower and got changed into my uniform I checked the time it was 8:28 and ‘ OMG I still haven't had breakfast yet” I said, rushed I through my bedroom door grabbed my bag but stopped at the main door and opened it I took a step outside and I shivered.

I had no choice but to sprint to school, on the way i felt a huge breeze go fast it made my jacket flapped but then I heard thunder I tripped over and fell into the puddle it felt like this would take forever mud in face I was hungry also late “can this day get any worse.

Finally I was there it looked like i had just woke up as slowly opened the door Mrs Squires was sitting in her desk it was morning tea “Um hi ms sorry im late”
“Dhara why are you late explain now.  I could tell she was furious with anger “Im sorry miss you don't know how difficult it was for me just to get to school “Well ok this time will be a warning but next time you're on detention “Okay Mrs thank you
i will always remember this.
