10 Things That Has Happened Since I Last Posted

1.Naomi and I went to Sydney for cricket! It was the biggest, most fancy and official cricket weekend I've ever had.

2. I have started cricket here at home and I'm playing U/14's, U/12's again to make numbers, I might be playing for the U/14's rep side and are most likely to get a few games in 3rd grade. So there is a lot of cricket.

3. We had school holidays and painted our dining, lounge room and bought new lounges to go in the room.

4. I bought some new clothes.... if that counts. (I'm only up to question four and I'm already running out of ideas)


5.I finished Rangers Apprentice book #5 and #6 and I'm now reading book #7.

6. Fishing, fishing fishing and a bit more fishing.

7. Naomi bought a smashing new cricket bat.

8.During the holidays when we were painting, we brought three book shelves into our room, we have managed to get one out, but the other to are still here.

Isn't that cool!

9. I cleaned up my room

10. I received a new award on blogger.

(Will be back with more shortly)

Random.....

It's the weekend!! The weekend has got to be the best part of the week. I get to hang out with friends, play sport, watch sport and just relax. I don't have sport today. My hockey team won our semi final, so we are straight into the grand final which will be played next weekend. Its very exciting!! So with hockey finishing, the cricket season will start soon. Naomi, my brothers and I are signing up for cricket today.

At the moment I'm sitting on my bed, in my pajamas, my hairs a mess, my little sister is playing games on Naomi's laptop while I'm blogging away on my laptop. I haven't been blogging much lately, I should probably try harder. Since spring started (ten days ago), I have been for two swims with my siblings in our pool. It is very chilly, but it was a lot of fun. Any way, before I leave, here are a few photos.

Toodle Pip!

Update

I know..... I'm guilty of not posting in AGES.... (LOL)

I just haven't got round to it.

Ok. We haven't played much cricket at all this season!!!!!! It has been so annoying. On the days

that we play our games and train, it rains!! I wouldn't be surprised if we don't get a full game in

before Christmas.

It has been such a wet spring. It is raining right now.

We have been using the pool a lot. Even though it has been pretty wet, it is still

really nice to swim in.

Naomi and I have our Birthday next week!!!! I'm very excited. Unfortunately, getting older doesn't mean getting any taller for me. (LOL) (As some of you would know, I'm very short)

The year has gone past so quickly for me. It feels like it was Christmas day just last week.

I have started to read Ranger's Apprentice!!!!! It is so awesome. I'm up to book two, and I am really enjoying it so far.

That's just about all I have to say.

Hopefully we will get a game of cricket in soon!! I really want next weeks game to be on.

(It's just about time I bowled CB middle stump) (LOL).

Warning!!!

Just letting you know that on Friday my blog background is going to disappear.

I don't know if I will need to change my blog background or if I will be able to get it back. I hope I don't have to change because I really like it the way it is and the photo too.

Just thought I would let you know so that you don't think it's not loading on your computer or something like that.

My New Laptop!!!!

I've finally got a laptop!!

I got it yesterday. It was so exciting. I've done most my school for the day on it.

Here is picture of it.

I love it!

I got it for my school work, blogging, emailing and other reasons.

It is so nice to use. It is made by the company Apple.

I'm using the laptop now to do this post. There isn't much I can say about it.

I'm sorry I haven't been posting much lately. I've been trying to get back into the swing of things since the holidays are over. Thanks for putting up with me.

P&P Clip

Here is a You Tube clip that my big sister Elise put on her blog a year or two back. It is so funny.

It is about the famous book written by Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice.

I don't know how many of you have seen the movies or the book. I haven't read the book yet but I have seen all three of the movies.

Here it is.

I think it's very funny but if you haven't seen one of the movies or read the book you probably won't think it funny.

What did you think?

Home Sweet Home!!

I'm back from my holiday.

It was so good! My brothers, Naomi and I all had a great time. We did heaps of sailing, tons of eating and we did a lot of fishing. We didn't catch anything though, we got lots of bites and we hooked a few but they managed to get off again:( We watched quite a bit of TV too. My brothers, Naomi and I are all big fans of the actor John Wayne. For those of you who don't know who he is I will tell you. He was known for acting in western movies, he was really good at it. We love watching movies that he is in. Of course he's dead now.

About the sailing. Our Grandparents gave us a sailing dinghy called a Laser. Here's a picture of one. Our one is red and it's called the Flying Dragon.

As you can see its not a very big boat but it is so cool to sail in. My big brother sails it and while we were on holidays he started to teach Naomi and I how to sail it!! We have been learning how to steer the boat. It's pretty hard. And well, we also just ate great food.

Another great thing that happened is that we went to see Toy Story 3!!!!!!!!!!!!

I absolutely loved it. It is so AWESOME! It would probably have to be my favorite movie out of the 3 of them. It is different to what I thought it would be and different to how they make it seem like in the trailer but it is awesome. To me it made me think what would happen next unlike some other movies where you pretty much know whats going to happen.

All up it was a FANTASTIC holiday!

Ten Pin Bowling!!

Couple of days ago my family and I and other homeschooling family's went Ten Pin Bowling!

It was so much fun even though I came second last (LOL) I've never been any good at it.

We were all separated into different lanes according to our age. We had one game.

My ending score was 75.

I hope we will go there again. Even though I'm absolutely hopeless at it I really enjoy doing it.

Hockey!!!

Guess what. We finally won our first game of hockey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the story.

The team we were versing got a goal in the first half and then we got one at the beginning of the second half so it was one all. Then in the last minute I dribbled the ball up to the top of the circle and someone knocked me over, I'm not sure if it was on purpose or not. So it was our ball. We got it into the circle and one of my team mates went for a shot at goal but it just missed, the ball was still in play though. So Naomi came into the circle and someone passed it to her and she got the goal!!!

We are still very excited about it all. We play again today but we are playing the best team so we probably won't win. I'm just glad we won last night.

Voyage Of The Dawn Treader Trailer!!

The trailer for the Dawn Treader is finally out!!!

It looks so awesome!!

Ouch!!

Yesterday Naomi and I had hockey training and I tripped over a hockey ball 

and I think I've sprained my ankle or possible broken a bone:(

I hope I haven't broken a bone because then I won't be able to play sport for ages.

So now I'm on my bed on the computer doodling around.

 

Posting

I really don't have anything to post about.

I don't get how people can think of things to post about constantly.

How do you do it???

I really want to come up with thing to post about instead of not posting

at all for ages.

If you have any suggestions or ideas for me please let me know what they are.
