Swimming Sports

AS I SAT DOWN, I LOOKED AT THE BLUE MURkY REFRESHING WATER. I HEARD SCREAMING AND LAUGHTER, I WAS BURNING AS THE SUN ATTACKED ME. I FELT SO GREAT AND CONFIDENT. I WAS EXCITED BECAUSE TODAY WAS SWIMMING SPORTS!

FIRST IT WAS THE OPEN 4 LENGTH FREESTYLE, I WAS WALKING TO THE BLUE SHADE, IT WAS SO NERVE RACKING LOOKING AT THE BLUE WATER. WHILE I WAS WAITING I HEARD SO MUCH NOISE IT WAS CRAZY! BUT I STILL HEARD JACK ANNOUNCING THAT WE WERE RACING. AS I WALKED UP TO THE BLOCK I HAD BUTTERFLIES IN MY TUMMY.

“BRRRRRRRR! READY! GO!!!” I DIVED IN. I WAS THE 3RD ONE TO CRACK THE ICE BUT EVERYONE CAUGHT  UP. I WAS SWIMMING AS HARD AS I CAN. JACKSON WAS COMING 1ST, and I STILL WAS GETTING STOMPED BY EVERYONE BUT I STILL TRIED. IN THE END I CAME 2ND TO LAST BUT I DIDN’T REALLY CARE.

FINALLY I WENT HOME WINNING TWO RACES.

ANTI-BULLYING Anti-bullying tries to make it stop Beating us up making us hop Counting all the days we’ve been bullied around Dancing on our faces while we’re on the ground Eternal bullies walking all around Fancy sneaking without making a sound Glittering blood that’s what we hate Hesitating about bruces I hope we're not too late In competitions who is the most lamest Jerks who think they're famous Kings of bullies are not cool Lying about pushing us off the stools Teachers believing what they say Not even caring what we do, they delay Obstacles of illusions making all these lies Pleading for mercy, I would make a disguise Quietly tripping over feelings hurt too Running away from bullies ,bullies are so cruel Slivering through the grass hiding really low Try not to make a sound from head to toe Undoing all the bad trying not to be mean Versing the biggest bully i'm gonna get creamed What are bullies thinking, i’m gonna be alert X rays and nurses incase we get hurt Yapping about nothing just wanting attention Zooming through the classrooms going to detention.

The Sleep Over

When I Woke up, I went to the sitting room as slow as a turtle.Well, I was playing on the computer, unexpectedly my cousins, Ezekiel and Luke came over."Hi,want to come to Chartwell with us?"Said Ezekiel  "Yeah." I said.

Firstly, well, I was in the car, we were playing with the toys, I was playing with Jeff Harty, a cool, famous wrestler, and Luke was playing Matt Harty, Jeff's brother, also a wrestler. We pretended that we were super heroes, I was Batman and he was Spiderman.

Next, we looked at all the shops, one shop  was called EBA Games, it had these cool as games like Assassins Creed 4 and Uncharted 4 etc.40 minutes after that, I think, we went to Burger king,we had a big coupon that had heaps of combos, I got a $8.90 combo so did Ezekiel but Luke didn't, he got a $5 combo so he got an extra $5, then we went to Te Kowhai skate board park. It was really cool until a boy buzz killed it, he started an arguement.

Finally, we went home and had dinner and went to sleep.

I want do that again, 30 times more, that's how good it was.

Athletics Day

When I was 8 years old, our school had an Athletics Day. We all competed in lots of events, like High Jump, Long Jump, Vortex, Shot Put, Discus and Sprints.
First we did Shot Put, then it was sprints. It was held on the green grassy field. The columns stretched 100m straight. All the boys lined up between the thin lanes. We got set up into groups of two.The first thing I knew, all of them were nervous. “On your marks, get set,” Bang! The gun went off. Everyone zoomed off as fast as lightning, sprinting their legs off, heading to the finish line, breathing, coughing, sweating as much as rain, but James came in first place and he won! He had a loud breathe as he gave his score to the teacher, tired and happily. 

Easy, peasy, simple as ABC! he said to himself.Next, it was Discus. It was held on the soccer field. It was like a V with a circle on the tip of the V. Josh picked up black, round and smooth, gold disk and pushed his arms and legs, with the disk gliding in the air and made a dent in the ground. Again, he picked another disk, hoping for a great and far distance, and he pushed the smooth disk in the air, and, this time, he made it further than the other one, and, finally, he picked up the last disk and threw it and I think the disk went out.
It was my turn. I did my 1st attempt and threw the disk and it made a small distance, then it was my 2nd attempt and, again, it made a small distance. It was my last shot, then I remembered what had happened last year and I didn’t want that to happen again. I threw it and it went 11m and I won!
“Yay”!
Finally, it was the finals for the sprints. It was held at the same place that the the sprint heats were held. There was a Final A and a Final B. I was in the Final B for the 50m run and in the Final A for the 80m run. First, it was the Final A. Mr Emms came with the gun. The boys had a deep breath. “On your marks, get set,” Bang!
They ran as fast as they could. They were even faster than sprinting. It was like the finish line was trying to catch them halfway there, and James won again. He was the top sprinter in our age group. H
e got a round, orange, plastic disc without any silky ropes attached to it. 
It was a fun day, but I was very tired when I got home from school that afternoon.
