Putting myself into their shoes!

Throughout the week we have been doing a lot of literacy. The most recent subject would be writing. Our teacher Mrs Nua has told us about one of the highlights in her holiday. It was about her daughter who went on a Bungee Jump. She showed us shots of the moment. She gave us a very brief and descriptive story about when her daughter was getting ready to jump and when she had jumped. So our Teacher told us to put ourselves into her daughters shoes and to wright an exciting but short story so here is my story:

I stood there feeling crackled as I looked 40 metres down thinking about Bungee jumping made me want to puke. I stood there getting ready to jump 40 terrifying metres down off Hanmer Bridge. It was to late now, So I had no choice but to jump.

My stomach gurgled out loud like a jammed sewage pipe. I had a stomach ache. It was do or die now (die as in I would get a punishment from my mum because it cost a a lot of money to jump off a BRIDGE!!!) I jumped!! And my chest was as numb I took a jump of fright. "AAAHHH!!!!!!" I screamed like a helpless girl saying to myself, "I'm so stupid to think this was a cool idea!!"

I flew down like a Phoenix. As I was still screaming with terror I felt a nice cool breeze glide threw my non dyed hair. It felt so refreshing and terrifying at the same time in fact it was a mixed bag of emotions!! I was still falling and the ground got closer and closer,closer,closer ............AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!! I shut my eyes and was about to cry! But then suddenly BOOIIINNNGGG?!?! I opened eyes in question, "I'm alive? I"M ALIVE!!!" I suddenly feel a lot better knowing that I had survived that breathtaking jump!

All Stars VS Aborigenes WHAT A GAME!!

What a game that was!! The Indigenous All Stars stole the win out of the NRL All Stars by winning the match 12-16. It was amazing to see all the stars of last year play in that game. They all looked in very good shape they looked lean and mean ready to kick into the 2010 season!

It was sad to see "Big Dell" (Wendell Sailor) play his last game but he showed a bit of humour after scoring , when he scored the first try he ran straight to the corner post pulled it out of the ground and pretended that it was a didgeridoo, when he was playing his "instrument" all of the Indigenous players ran up to Wendell and started doing a dance it was quite funny to see all the Australians dancing!!

Manu "The Beast" Vatuvei played for the NRL all stars as a winger along with Israel Folau. Sam Burges had his first taste in playing with Australians. He was quite good with all the tackles and offloads he created. Micheal Jennings (SPEED MERCHANT!!!) also made a HUGE commitment to the game ,swerving,slipping,sliding threw the defence and gave the try to put the All Stars back into the game. It was classic game and people predict that this will be the new ORIGIN!! GO THE TIGERS!!!!!!!

Naruto Chronicles

Over the year I have slowly been watching a cartoon called "Naruto" it is about a boy named you guessed it Naruto and he goes on such crazy and exciting adventures to search for his best friend Sasuke Uchiha. Naruto is one of the Jinchuriki he has the nine tailed fox sealed in him which holds an incredible amount of power but they call the power Chakra. Naruto's friend Sasuke purposely runs away from home so that he could go to his EVIL brother Itachi Uchiha. Naruto has been looking for him but then had given up for a while and started training with a Pervy Sage (Grand Master) Jiraiya, they left the villiage for there training.

After two long years Naruto had finally completed his training with Pervy Sage and then headed back to the village. Now Naruto must search for Sasuke but now Sasuke has become one of the most dangerous fighters around and has joined a villianous group called the Akatsuki. The Akatsuki are made up of runaway villagers who are extremely powerfull. In my picture Naruto is in the middle Sasuke is on the left and Naruto team mate and crush "Sakura" is on the right.

West Tigers young guns get a shot of GLORY

West Tigers will be playing against the North Queensland Cowboys this week on FRIDAY THE 12TH and basically MASTER coach Tim Sheens have put the up and coming superstar Young guns in there first pre season game for this year. I was abit shocked to see that the Tigers had no experienced first grade players but it would also be exciting to see who would be the shining youngsters for this year. I think that they will do well because of course there going to be the CHAMPS FOR 2010!!!!! GO THE TIGERS!!!!!!!

Presenting For Point England 2009

As some of you may know I am part of the Pt England presenting team.
Through out the year I have presented to hundreds of visitors all about BLOGGING and I have really enjoyed it. When I present, pictures pop up on a screen above and they show what blogging can do and what it can be about. I am just one of the group of presenters including; Cruz, Leoden, Sela, Helen and Paulitia. We all talk about something we are really good at. We wrote our own scripts and practised them until we got the hang of them.
Another thing about presenting is that we got to present in front of lots of different people like ,CLOSE UP, MAORI TELEVISION and another interesting one, the UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA.
WOW we are awesome! Here is a video clip showing I usually say to the visitors I present to!

The West Tigers Champs in 2010

You might be wondering why is Tanielu saying that the West Tigers are going to be the Champs of 2010? Well I'll tell you why I think that the West Tigers are going to win next year. Because they have so many new fantastic people playing for the club next year. Say for example they are getting the big Saint Helen's Forward his name is "Jason Cayless" he is a Kiwi and I guarantee that he's going to bring a lot of POWER to this Tigers forward pack. Ever since 2006 they have needed another BIG,POWERFUL FORWARD so they picked the right guy for sure and that is something that will really help the West Tigers next year.

Another big buy for next year is another Super League star and his name is "Mark Flanagan" he has been recently playing Lock and a Second Rower he is a HITMAN and has a good precise running structure so he'll be yet another good buy for the Tigers.

Now I've been looking forward to this signing the name of the man is "LOTE TUQURI" he is a from the Brisbane Broncos and has recently been playing Rugby Union for the Waratahs. He is damaging and has ULTRA SPEED. He has made history for the Broncos and he was a winger with Wendell Sailor.

There is a big chance...in fact there is a HUGE CHANCE that the Tigers will make it to the finals next year! Well that's it from me I hope to hear more exciting NEWS!!

Another AWESOME camp for Point England

"WOOOOHOOO" was what I yelled out when we were on the Ferry as we were on our way to KAWAU Island. It was for year six only and boy was I looking forward to having a so much fun!

We had so many cool activities. We had a " Confidence course" that's all about conquering your fear in different types of courses. There was also sailing which was actually my favourite activity because I was the controller of the boat and the waves took us on one heck of a ride. Another FANTASTIC experience was getting to absail it was absolutely 'Heart Pounding!!' I was hooked onto a rope and I had to lower myself down a wall. I'll let you guys on a little secret........ I'm scared of HEIGHTS!! I just can't stand tall buildings especially when I'm looking down!!

I will never forget the man who changed my taste buds life his name is Mr Coop - or you could just call him well I don't know THE BEST COOK IN THE WORLD!!!! From the moment his world famous bread went into my mouth he had sent my mouth on one WILD ADVENTURE!!! I just couldn't believe what had happened to me!!

I was a leader and my group name was Kawau and we were the overall WINNERS. But when we had a Concert and everybody did an item we had come second and a group called the "Katz" won the item. My dad came along and helped out it was fun having my dad with me. He would tell jokes to everybody and they would start laughing!! I can't wait to go again (if I go again!) CAMP BENTZON ROOOOOOCCCCCKKKKKKSSSS!!!!!!!
