Stormy Day Narrative

Hearing a loud crashing  sound outside my window, I rushed outside to see what had happened. To my surprise I saw that a seagull had smashed onto the glass. Struggling to walk out onto the sand, I could feel the wind pushing against me. The “roar” of it and the waves pounding the shore is all I can hear.

I turned my head to look back at my house, I saw that it was covered in a thick foggy blanket. Suddenly I heard a crack, a tree fell right beside me. The vibrations of the tree when it hit ground, caused me to fall over and run back into the house like a wuss.

With my hands on my mothers shoulders I shook her vigorously trying to wake her up. “WAKE UP!” I yelled in my mothers face surprisingly the howling wind hadn't woken her up already. I looked back outside and saw that a dog was being swallowed by a big blue wave. I ran to try get him back. Stupidly I swam to him and tried to pull him ashore.

It didn't work I was stuck in the rip! Up in the air the dog flew onto the beach. I had thrown him so he wasn't dead wait. I felt like I was being pulled out to sea. The more I started to drift off the more it felt like my heart was going to pop out of my chest.

Suddenly the current stopped. I couldn't believe it I was so scared. The mist was all around me. Am I dead? I thought to myself. No I couldn't my heart was still pounding. I panicked and started kicking I hurt my foot as I felt a rock scrap against it. I could feel the blood oozing out of my foot.  It looked disgusting.

The mist started to clear up I was so scared and happy at the same time. I wanted to know where I was. I was so stupid. All that panicking for nothing. 10 meters from the shore was all that there was.

The storm had finally cleared up. Tree debris was everywhere it looked like a mini tornado had hit. I ran inside the house everything was as it was before.”What!” mum was still sleeping! what had happened here?

5 Symbols About Me

Hello my name is Brooklyn and I am a yr 8 student who goes to P.t England School. At 12:30 and at 1:00 on Wednesdays and Mondays I head off to extension with a few of my friends.This term the extension group had to make a visual mihi.

We had to draw 5 symbols about ourselves and were allowed to trace our face’s. My 5 symbols show that I LOVE music and filming, I come from New Zealand, that I am half cook Island and I like to do alot of sports. My first symbol is the sign music it isn’t much but I can understand what I mean. I just like music. My second symbol has a picture of a video camera and the word, LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION. The reason I chose that as one of my symbols is because when I grow up I would like to make movies (mystery movies). My third symbol shows the New Zealand flag I chose that as my third symbol because I live in New Zealand. Not much to say but the scenery is beautiful and I am proud to be a New Zealand citizen. My Fourth symbol show the wonderful place of Rarotonga. I’ve been to Rarotonga so many times and I guess it just grew close to my heart. My last symbol has the names of sports that I would like to play or am going to play. Thank you for reading my post please comment.

My Waitangi Day

On Wednesday the 6th it was the famous Waitangi day. My mum took me and my sister to St Lukes to watch M.T Zion the movie that has Stan walker acting in it. I is a pretty good actor. The movie to me was quite short but it was cool. After that we went home and did absolutely nothing. But I soon got bored of nothing so I got up made a brownie. It was really nice.

I love baking and after I made the brownie I gave my papa half on it and the next day my nana said that he ate it all.So that pretty sums up my Waitangi day I know it isn’t much. Anyway what did you do on Waitangi day? What is your story?

A Picture Of The Hollywood Sign


 In the holidays my dad took me and my sister to LA and I took that picture when we were on a brake from the tour that we were on. There is an interesting fact about the sign it is that instead of calling it Hollywood they used to be called Holly Land. I will tell the whole story in another post so if you want to read about it, look out for my next post.
