P1 Walk 60km

For 12 weeks I have been building up my fitness by walking with my mum and my dog. We began with 5km walks and have slowly made them longer and longer. Over the weeks we walked usually 3 nights a week and so have walked more than 180kms!

The walks got easier which shows that my fitness improved and I feel better after doing it.

This is me walking with my dog Vader.

Steve the Bear

This bear was a bear called Steve. Steve was an old bear, old but happy he had a lovely family. He had black silky fur and shiny blue eyes. One day Steve was walking around he was starving and he couldn't find any food. Steve the bear came up to a road stopped and looked both ways. He was going to cross but then he saw two cyclists. They stopped and looked at Steve. They were called Bob and Phil, Bob said "Hi!". Bob was wearing a black and white helmet and Phil had a green and whit helmet. Steve was staring a Bob with his glistening eyes and roared. Steve thought of nothing but food so Steve put on his angry face and jumped at Bob. Phil biked away and the only thing left of Bob was his skeleton.

Meeting Rm 43 Students

Yesterday me and the rest of my group visited Rm 43 that is the class for kids with disabilities. Their room burned so they had to move their new class infront of Rm 42. When we got there Bobby gave us a tour around the class it was really fun. There was more than 1 room in room 43 and in each room there were only two people working there but there was also 1 big room for all of the kids. Bobby had a big keypad and this red ball thing that looked like a buzzer on a game show for his mouse it was pretty cool.

The weekend

After school on Friday at 5pm I went to Ryan.H's house for his lan party. Connor.S and Hugh.Y were also coming. We basically did nothing but game. Even though we had to sleep in a hut. Surprisingly it was also quite warm. Unfortunately there was only one bed wich sucked. Everyone went to sleep for a couple hours except for me. The next we gamed until lunch. We had lunch at Chinatown, I had rice and chips with tomato sauce. When my mum came to pick me up from Chinatown I went to rent a game for 8 days it was Uncharted 3. I completed the game the next day it was awesome.

Science Experiment

One of my science experiments was testing if playing on the Wii would make you fit. I played a fitness game so it probably did make me fit a little bit. I played a fitness session witch is probably 30 minutes once a day for 2 weeks. I didn't get a ribbon for my experiment and I can't really remember the results.

Camp

I'm proud that I peeled 15 potatoes in 31 minutes because I am bad at peeling potatoes and I have never done it before.

It made me laugh when Caine said he lost his keys in his dream while he was sleeping. 

The biggest challenge was surviving a week without tv. I was so desperate to watch tv that when I went into my house the first thing I did was I just dropped my bags ran after the remote turned on the tv and jumped on the couch and watched Adventure Time. 

The tastiest food was the pasta and corn that me and my group had with our bacon and maple syrup they didn't go well together. 

The most rewarding was doing the 10 minutes in the bush because were only 2 meters away from another person so I could talk to Hugh and he said "CATS ARE FRIENDLY!"

Believe it or not I didn't get shot in paintball because in the first round I was defending the flag.
