Technology

Last week when we went to tech then  I realised how far behind I was. Why did it have to be cross country the week before. So as usual Mr Bain would show us some tools and then how to put our lights together then we could go off and start doing what we would need to.

I started to run through the list in my head. You need to cut out the coconut trees and the coconuts and the sun you still have to paint your background and the turtle I completely forgot about the turtle. So I had to make that cut it out and paint it. Some people are almost finished. I started to stress myself out. Ok just think for a second what do you need to do first. I made my way over to the band saw. My hands stared to wobble as I turned the machine on. I was so nervous that I was going to stuff it up. I had almost finished when we had to go out for break.

We all rushed back into the classroom. Soon my safety glasses were back on and I was cutting again. I made my way back to the work bench with two neatly cut coconut trees and five coconuts. I laid them out on the board. that's one thing done. I grabbed my trees and went to the paint table. My paint brush slid through the creamy paint I just made.

Hot air rushed out of the heat gun. My arm started to get sore after a while from holding the gun up so high. "Darn-it '' the paint started to crack. I went back to the paint table there was a little of my paint left over. '' Time to pack up every body'' I quickly slapped some more paint on and left them on the table to dry.

On the bus I thought of the order I needed to do things next week. I really need to do that turtle.        

Art

 

 

A few days ago I started to sketch a rose bud. I did a little bit when I got some spare time. and I finished this evening. I hope to get some more drawings done by the end of the year.

 

 

Tri schools cross country 

Take your marks... Get set... Anticipation  was building up inside of me. BANG. The clappers slapped together. It was a mix between a sprint and a run confused how fast I should be starting. I slipped in behind Katie everyone could tell she had already won before we had even started. We ran up the mud slush hill, trying to doge the ankle rolling holes and ledges leading to a confusing pathway down. Around the gorse under the trees finally a break from the burning sun. Come on keep going you can do it just keep a good pace doesn't matter where you come just finish I kept repeating these words in my head. We came to miss Hanna come on girls strait up the hill "What? why are we going up the hill" said Katie. "I thought we were supposed to go around the corner." I said. "Ohh no girls sorry your ment to around the corner". "Dang it  this is so dumb" Katie grumbled. We came back around the corner to see that everyone had caught up now we were only just in front exasted from climbing the hill. We came back around and through the start line. Now came the big laps! Up mudd slush hill again trough the trees. This was supposed to be the time we were ment to be going strait but I had already done this. I was ok until I saw the ginormous hill we were going to climb and then started to think we had to run it twice. After another lap I was coming on to the last lap thank goodness that it was a small one. Come on almost done I kept on saying to myself you can do it. Then I was wondering what we were going to have for tea. My day dreaming was interrupted by Holly P, Emma and Jess yelling at me "come on Annabelle hurry up you can do it." I came to the last stretch before the finish. I started to sprint putting the last of my energy into the finish. I came in fifth I was happy with me result but maybe I need to pratice a bit more. I am nervous and excited to be going to Rakahuris tomorrow.
