Dad, I Want to be a Camel

Animal Dance

On Friday 5th of December I attended Manurewa Central school's middle school production in their auditorium at 9:30am. It was fantastic. The theme was animals.

My favourite was a song from Savage Garden called the Animal song. Amazing! I thought. It was like I was watching a professional dance! They were wearing  black pants and black tops. They had animal hats on. The only question is, why did they put cheetahs with cows? Wouldn't they eat each other?

Behind them was a forest background and above green lights were lighting up their dance. I think it made the costumes pop out.

Overall the entire show was fantastic and I would love to go again next year.

Character Description

My Nana

My nana's eyes are as black as night. My nana has curly hair like tangled roots. Her skin is wrinkly like tiny lily pads on a pond. Her body is slim, tall and her body works very hard. My nana's mouth is small and is always chatty. 

My nana likes knitting. She likes learning about God and seeing everybody happy. My Nana doesn't like sad faces. My nana always says "Use your table manners!!" And she always says, "Don't be naughty before I kick your backside!!" My nana always drinks Milo.

I feel happy I have a nan because if I don't I will feel very!! very!! very!! lonely without her with me.

Diary Writing

On Saturday I went to the airport early in the morning at 5.00am to pick up my cousin Roger. He is from Tonga.

After that we all decided to have Mc Donalds for breakfast. I had hot chocolate and pancake.  Roger had the same.

At 8:00 we all went to my cousins rugby. He plays for the Marlins. The other team was the Howick. My cousin’s name is Devante. When the game finished I found a $1.00 on the field so I bought lollies for us all. They were so so sour. I loved it including my mum. ”The score was a draw,” yelled the coach. I jumped up and squirmed. Then I replied to my mum, "He frightened me."  

After a while we went to a shop and brought some dinner. My papa said, "Goodnight". He was just joking around with me. He always does that. We had some pancakes, quiche, sapasui, crab and meat. It smelt so yum there was water dripping out of my mouth. I couldn't wait . I was too hungry.

Last time Roger came from Tonga, he served a Mission in New Zealand as an Elder. His name was Elder Koliapai. His full name is Roger Koliapai. After we ate dinner he went outside to visit the other people he knows from last time.
