Free Speech.

This week I have been learning  "Russia and Saudi Arabia may block YouTube". This happened because the American's put up a video which offended the Islam people. They went to the streets and set fire to house, buildings and cars.

The film triggered them to protest against US embassies and other targets in the Middle East and around the world. The American's refused to take the video down, that's why they have been attacking them.

Roller coaster Ride.

In our class we have been writing narratives. This is one I have written.
<--- Here's a comic strip I have drawn.

Goodnight I said to my mum. I took off my robe and wore the best clothes I had and waited for my friends to call. We were going to the theme park, it was dark and freezing cold. They called me up and told me to meet them outside. I crept out the window and got into the car. And off we went, to the theme park.

I was really having fun. Until we went onto the rollercoaster. Only a few of us went on the ride started I was scared to death, I didn’t want to go on I regretted it from the beginning. I was screaming loud, tears were coming down my face. The loop was coming up, I just wanted to go off. I was screaming out “Nooo”. When we got up to the loop, the ride had stopped.

We were all scared, they couldn’t make the ride go again. News reporters had come with their cameras and stuff. I wondered if my mum was watching this. All of a sudden out of nowhere came a man who came and saved us. He brang us down one by one, but no one knew who he was. Some of us got interviewed from the News Reporter, I was one of them.

That was the end of it. We all went home, I snuck back into my room. My mum was standing there, she looked mad at me. All of sudden she ran up to me and hugged me. She was happy that I was safe, she wanted to look for the dude to thank him. But in a way she was angry at me as well for sneaking out. She saw me on the news. I was happy to be home, she told me to ask her first instead of sneaking home.

The Photo of my Cat.

Trying to catch my cat as it is playing everywhere wondering if he would stop. Finally it stopped I went to go and grab it but it started to bite and scratch me. I scream oouuuccchhh, and let it go. “Ugh this is going to be a long day” I said.

As I tried to find him, I hear him crying. He was stuck in the basket, I took him out and tried to take the photo. But he was too fast and ran off. Can’t believe he was so energetic, nah he probably didn't want to take the photo. I was taking lots of photos of him, but he just wouldn’t stay still.

The time had past, I just wanted a photo of him. He was still jumping around, I couldn’t catch him. I noticed him walking over to the kitchen, I think he was hungry? So I went over and fed him, once he finished he went over to the couch. He went and lied down, he had finished playing. He finally fell asleep and thats when I took the photo.


Hey guy, this story is imaginative but yeah hoped you like my imagination :))

Dangers of Smoking

Most people know that smoking can cause bad effects to your body. Taking risk’s can be a good and a bad thing. But in smoking its a different story, because you can die.

Smoking can cause lung cancer, heart disease and other illnesses. Nicotine is an addictive drug, it tricks the brain to thinking that it feels good. Many people say that it is better to not smoke at all. Smokers are more higher at risk of death than non smokers, because it can cause health problems.

70% of people know that they are at risk but still smoke, as the nicotine changes the way you feel. Smoking can sometimes shorten your life up to 10 years. Men are 23 times likely to get lung cancer, and women are 13 times. The risk can be really bad, even if you know what consequences it holds.
I believe that smoking is bad for you. But you can’t judge anyone about it because its their body. My opinion is to not start smoking at all, because its hard to stop and a huge risk.

The London Olympics !

The first Olympic Games were held in Greece in 770 BC. The Olympic Games are every four years. This year it is in London, it’s been the third time the Games have been held there.

New Zealand was brilliant in the Olympics, winning 13 medals. New Zealand are coming 16th in the medal count with 5 Golds, 3 Silvers and 5 bronze. The 1st person to win a Gold Medal for New Zealand was Ted Morgan, for the welterweight class in boxing at the 1928 Amsterdam Games.

Heaps of people get medals, everyone tries to get to the Gold, sometimes it never happens and sometimes it does. USA is coming 1st in the medal count with a total of 104 medals. Not far from USA, is China coming 2nd with 87. Michael Phelps will now be retiring from the Olympics, he won himself 22 medals this year, with a record of 18 Golds.

The Olympics was very fun. I enjoyed watching it, and can’t wait until the next one which will be held in Rio. I liked watching the sprints. I hope New Zealand can do better and win some more next time.
