The amazing banana tree

It started when my dad cut the tree down. We all thought it was the end of the tree.

A few weeks later it grew. My dad thought that it can't be happening until he discovered it himself.
It was really amazing!

Hope you leave some comments!

The medicine playing the mischief

One day a man came to a medical center and got a medicine. They said it was the best one. He tried it hoping his fever would be gone but the medicine only made him jump around.

He went back. He got a different medicine that acted even stranger. It made him do cartwheels and gave him a fit. He went back again and got another different medicine. It made him blow fire this time. He blew fire and burnt hit house because it was so spicy.

He became very angry and then he knew what was wrong. He didn't read the instructions. He followed the hardest instruction and his fever went away.

He was very happy and never got an illness or disease ever again.

A song I wrote myself

(This is a little rude and has no tune)

Dummy little idiots,
Don't know what to do.
They run like a chicken,
When they feel scared.
They run everywhere,
When they're being chased.
They'll get a special prize,
When they beat their record.

Dummy little idiots,
Don't know what to do.
They don't do anything,
When they feel bored.
Dummy little idiots,
Can't do anything
They don't have a brain,
So their so dumb.

Dummy little idiots,
don't know what to do.
They'll go ape,
When they're going wild.
They'll do the opposite,
Of all of your orders.
So say the opposite,
Of your very own orders.

The performance at the Opera House

On 4/7/10 I went to perform at the Opera House with the Sydney Childrens' Choir and Gondwana Choir. I was so excited when I got there. It was so busy over there at the Opera House because (I think) they were waiting for the performance. When the performance started I sang and saw that the walls around us were all red and there must be more than a thousand people. When the performance was finished we were so tired so we went home and slept early.



P.S: I'm afraid that I'm not telling you everything.

Comments about a book called Crimpy's cartooning for kids

I like Crimpy's cartooning for kids because it's funny. One of it's funny part is:
Cartooning is like driving a car. You first need to be careful of not driving over the cat or grandma. The more you practice the better you drive and the happier the grandma is.

Some key for the words you don't understand might be:

pawsome=awesome howl=how deer=dear

The Pine Tree's Journey

One day a seed fell into the soil. The next day it grew. It was a little pine tree in the forest. It was lucky to have enough water.

Days passed, the pine tree struggled in the cold winter. Months passed, the pine tree fought the heat but enjoyed the sun. At one time the pine tree was nearly dead because there was nearly no water. After some time the pine tree was big and survived the hard season. It was big enough to build into something.

One day some people came and chopped down the pine tree and built it into a bookshelf.

The pine made bookshelf has never struggled again.

How I liked the book 'The day I swapped my dad for two goldfish'

I really liked about this book because this book said that a dad has been swapped not only one time but many times over! That's called funny.

The trip to the Nan Tien Temple

I went to the Nan Tien Temple with my mum and dad. I wish I haven't gone there because it is so boring there except for lighting the incenses.

When we arrived at the temple we went straight to where Ru Lai Fo (the strongest of all Buddhas) was. We made a mistake of going there straight away without getting a incense below the level of Ru Lai's temple. When we got down there we got nine incenses and shared between ourselves. We then lit the incenses with the fire on a candle. After that we preyed on north, east, south and west. We then stuck two of the incenses in the dust outside which is in a large pot. With the last incense we preyed the Buddha which is in the building and stuck it in the pot which was full of dust.When we finished preying that Buddha we went to prey the strongest Buddha which is Ru Lai Fo. When we finished preying we went to Crown St. to watch the celebration dances. And it was beautiful. There is still more but I have to base my subject on the title so bye!

I wish you could have a try the trick I always forget to do at the Nan Tien temple which is to lit one incense up and you would see some fire at the end yeah? You then lit the other incense up with it. Now for real BYE!

Comments about ZAC POWER books

I've read more than seven books of Zac Power and they're so cool! There are mega missions, extreme missions, test drives and normal missions. I like the extreme missions the best but there are only have four of the books. I've got seven of this book and they are Missions Shipwreck, High Risk, Frozen Fear, Zac's Wild Rescue, Sandstorm, Ice Patrol and Water Blaster. I borrowed some other Zac Power books from the library. My favorite mission is Zac's wild rescue even though it's not in extreme missions. I like it because it's very funny. On the back of the books there is a web link called http://www.zacpower.com/home/default.asp and it's so cool too. Next time I might write a blog about that too. Now bye bye. And enjoy the Zac Power books (if you bought one). WOW ';'.

The box

One day I'm at home with my mum and dad. Suddenly the doorbell rang I opened the door and saw a box. I opened it and OW! Something in the box hit me HARD in the stomach and sent me flying and crashing into the wall.

I then tried in another direction. OW! Not again! I then tried the next hundred times. OW! OUCH! OOH! AAARGH! That really hurt! I told my dad too deal with the box. OOF! Whenever my dad tried to open it to fix it the box hit my dad HARD in the stomach. It didn't actually it didn't send him flying though. At the last time a note fell out. It read "HA! HA! HA! Can ya defeat my Radar Jack-in-a-box? I can tell you something. I'm from yar neighbor on da right. HA! HA! HA!" The neighbor on the right? I thought. I then got an idea of paying it back.

I first found a long stick long enough to knock on the neighbor's door. I then put the box in front of the door. Now I used long stick to knock on the door and quietly and quickly pulled it back. Now my neighbor is in for a big surprise. When he opened the box he got hit right in the face!

I know paybacks will let the other person more angry but this is different.

A big crowded city

In the big city
Where everybody shops,
Crowded in the stores
Snatching for the goods,
Hardly anyone can drive
Everyone over there,
The first ones are very lucky
Enjoying their goods.

(An acrostic poem) family

For good care
At every second,
Many family members
In many countries,
Linking arms for care
Yet other people don't.

The choir camp 24-25 April

Every intermediate chorister was invited to the choir camp including me. The camp was at Naamaroo Conference Centre which is near Lancove National Park.

When I arrived at the camp I went to my cabin. My cabin number was 5 so I went to cabin 5. In cabin five there were bunk beds. I chose my bunk bed on the top and most other kids including Mason (who is my friend) were on the top too. When we finished making our beds we went to the main hall to rehearse some music and songs. After rehearsing we had morning tea. At morning tea we had banana muffins and water. After morning tea we all had activities. Everyone had chances to play four activities which were quiet time, art, composition and outdoor activities. After this we went to have lunch. At lunch we had wraps. After lunch I forgot what I did. Then we had dinner. After dinner we went to the main hall to watch children performing. After watching we went to bed.


The next morning we went up for breakfast. After breakfast We rehearsed and after rehearsing we drew a random fish (like a watermelon fish, banana fish and etc.). When we finished drawing we rehearsed once again. Before we went home a teacher announced which cabins deserved to get a special prize to take home for performing good everywhere and slept the earliest. The winning cabins were cabin 5 and 15.

I can't believe that the special prize was only a piece of chocolate but I still happily took it and went home.

This was my first camping. It was really fun. I didn't get homesick at all!

A trip to the Blue Mountains

On Good Friday I went to the Blue Mountains with my dads friends and my parents.

We all went into Scenic World and we saw a lot of goods. We didn't buy anything exept for the tickets for the ride and found that an Australian staff can speak chinese language perfectly! Pretty surprising though that he can speak chinese. Then my dad's friends and I went a different way. When we were waiting for my friends we have gone on a ride on the Skyway and at our destination we went for a walk and went back to the Scenic World. We then saw our friends at the scenic world. My friends that I met were Ada, Alfred and Lisa. When we finished talking we went on the Railway and zoomed down the hill. It was fun but unfortunately the ride ended very fast. We walked on the Walkway and we saw lot of giant trees, coals and plants. Our last ride is the Cableway (which was very simmilar to Skyway but the Skyway has a see through glass in the middle) and went to the restraund to have our lunch and then we headed for the Jenolan caves.

I just love this day very much because we had such a beautiful walk in the Walkway.

Armies

Armies, are brutal,
They're not scared.
They'll fight with all their might,
To defend themselves.
They are trained,
They survived,
Now they have finished the war.

Ten facts that I liked about Ancient Egyptians

Firstly I want to tell you about Site Seeing.
For nearly three thousand years ago Egypt was one of the richest and most powerful nations on earth. Under the rule of the pharaoh, the Egyptians had built most gigantic pyramids, enormous temples and colossal statues, and gathered vast treasures of gold and jewels. All this wealth and power relied on the River Nile. Each year the Nile flooded the the narrow valley and wide delta, leaving a thick layer of fertile mud in which helps crops grow. Beyond the reach of floods stretched the desert where nothing would grow. Ancient Egypt depended on the Nile and most of the sites in the kingdom are crowded along its length.
Secondly I like to tell you about The Farming Year.
The farming year in Egypt began when the flood ended in October. Wheat and barley were cut and collected all at once, while the ground is still soft. The harvest began in the following March. Farmers did not only worked in farms they also work for the pharoah. They mended canals and ditches,worked on upgrading and building project and fought in the army.
Now I like to talk about Crowning Glory.
The first pharaohs in Upper Egypt wore a white crown and kings in lower wore a red crown. Later the pharaohs changed to wear the double crown of a united Egypt. Sometimes pharaohs wore the Atef crown or a smaller blue crown decorated with a vulture and a snake. These creatures symbolized the Delta and the upper Nile Valley.
Now I'm telling you about Working for the Pharaoh.
The crafts people of Ancient Egypt were highly skilled and produce and work on delicate work. As time passed they learned new skills and techniques. Most craftspeople worked in small workshops run by a temple or a wealthy owner. The pharaoh might order hundreds of crafts people to move to a new town to do an important project.
Now I'm telling you about The Osiris Myth.
Osiris is one of the most popular gods of Egypt. He was a god of farming, death and rebirth. Egyptians believed that Osiris has once rulled Egypt as a pharaoh but murdered by his jealous brother Set, god of war, storms and desert. Set cut up Orsiris body into pieces and hid them but found by Orsiris's wife, Isis, found the pieces, put them back together and conceived a son, Horus. Horus the hawk god of day and the air, defeated Set and became the new pharaoh. After this Osiris became the king of the dead. Isis was the goddess of magic and life.
Now I'm telling you about Temples, Tombs and Pyramids.
The Ancient Egyptian are the first people to build with stone. They created the huge temples, tombs and pyramids, which were the biggest building in the ancient world. These were built so well that many lasted for thousand of years.
Now I'm telling you about The Land of the Dead.
One of the most important religious beliefs in Ancient Egypt was that people survived death. The first Egyptians were buried in the desert sands. The dry, hot sand preserved the bodies. Perhaps That's why had to be preserved if their spirits were to enjoy life in the land of dead.
Now I'm telling you about Egyptian Art. For exp, if a pharaoh is dragging a prisoner grabbing the hair and holding a club means the pharaoh had won a battle
Now I'm telling you about Egypt at War.
Egyptian armies were very formable in a battle. When Egypt was united under a strong pharaoh, its army is able to defeat nearly all their enemy. During the old kingdom, the pharaoh ordered farmers to fight in wars. When during the new kingdom, pharaohs realised the Egyptian army into Charioteers, infantrymen and mercenaries were trained to fight together.
At last I'm telling you about The Romans.
Under the Roman Empire, Egypt was heavily taxed and any signs of independence were brutally crushed. The gods were still worshiped and the local people are allowed to escape their own lives, although Roman soldiers were stationed throughout the land. Gradually the old ways were stamped out or forgotten. By AD350 the old Egypt had vanished.

From sidekick to hero - about the movie "Sky High"

I like to watch Sky High because the movie shows that everyone who goes to Sky High School has special powers such as shifting and super strength.
There are two types of classes in this high school. It is sidekick (hero supporter) and hero.
When it is nearly the end of the movie Will's girlfreind (who is a bad guy) turned into her own mode and wanted to turn every one into a baby and make the school fall. In the end Will and the sidekicks gone up into the hero group because they saved Sky High School. That's the end.
I like to watch Sky High because it is funny and had a very good ending.
Do you know where I watched it? It is from pps. To download pps you need to go to www.baidu.com (which is a Chinese searching website).
These are just parts of the story.
Now it's the full story. It all begin with Will Stronghold the son of Commander and Jet Stream. He was trying to lift a heavy weight but he can't. His dad told him to come down and he came down. A friend of his came to his home and Will's mum (Jet Stream) gave both Will and his friend a cup of drink. They are talking and when they finished Will turned on the TV. He and his friend watched Will's mum and dad destroy a robot. Will's dad took out an evil eye (a video camera) from the robot.
Now please watch the movie on websites or pps because it is better to watch rather than to read.
