My opinion on this article:

If I survived until 111 years old, then I will be very bored because I wouldn’t be able to move or do anything. I would prefer to choose be dead at 90 years old. I would also find hard to just lie there and my children will have to feed me.

Give me more presents than Dhon!!

On Sunday morning my family and I went to attend the 10 o'clock mass at St.Mark’s. When the mass ended we went home then we waited for the afternoon while having lunch at home. Then we went back to St marks church to practice for our first holy communion.  After the practice we went straight to our cousin’s house for his birthday party.

While the adults were busy preparing for the party, my friend and I raced to the computer to play games. Moments later, Dhon’s friend called Caleb Elijah  went in and tried to play with us but we did not allow him. He became sad and upset and was inflamed with anger and his face was as red as a ripe tomato. He was mad and almost cried when my friend and I were having fun.  He had a temper tantrums but he still asked nicely again if he can play the computer with us. He was asking Dhonde if he can play.  Then my friend gave him a chance to play for a little bit  while my cousin, who was the birthday boy was going to blow  his birthday cake.

Caleb’s emotion was like a roller coaster ride because he was having fun but at the same time feeling sad when he was losing the battle with counter strike. We were battling our friend and we  won the game because my friend was versing with Dhon’s little brother who was not good at this game. When I was getting bored I decided to play roblox. I played with my friend we were playing Miner Tycoon. Tristan did not get a VIP pass so he cannot go inside to acquire flying powers and rainbow path and $1000.00  But I did so I felt that II was so rich!  I tried to buy anything I wanted. After I bought a lots of things my friend and I were trying to chase the train. We tried to prank each other and he got annoyed with me so he stopped the game and played the Death Run Summer fun. Five minutes later my mum decided that we should be going home to prepare for school the following day.

It was a fantastic weekend for me and my cousin because we had so much fun together. I wish that we can do the same things when my birthday comes in January next year.

Weekend, Don't End!!!!!

I woke up early on Sunday morning to get ready for church to attend the mass. We prayed and we listened to the priest. After the mass we went home and changed our clothes and played xbox 360.  Then, a friend visited us and we played some games and later on, we went to our cousin’s house to play nba2k14.

While my cousins were playing nba2k14, I was playing mineblox in the computer. I tried seed 38851, it was a lucky seed and I found lots of diamonds. I called my friends to tell them that I was very  lucky. They were shocked! They could not believe what they were seeing! Then they continued playing nba2k14 and my brother came to play with us and it was 3 players in the game.

We ate lunch of rice and hotdog while  watching tv and talked about funny things. When we finished eating we continued with our game. Finally, our friends went home but my cousins stayed. When the internet went down, I joined the nba2k14. It was 2 vs our enemy who was my brother and he was good at playing this game so my cousin and I lost the game.

After losing the game,my cousin decided to practise the ‘real basketball’  while my winning brother was still playing nba2k14. I played with my cousin’s little brother because he started to feel bored. We were playing with lego toys together. Moments later I was feeling bored too so I went home.

My sunday was full of fun activities and I really enjoyed it especially the time that I spent time with my cousins. I wish that my cousins and I will have more banding times with each other so that we become more closer as closer as a family

Don't Worry, the Duffy Heroes will help you to READ!

Duffy came to visit St. Patrick's school

“We need to go to the hall for Duffy Theatre and I want you to be on your best behaviour,” said Miss Chao to our class on Monday afternoon. We walked fast to the hall and sat quietly on the floor waiting for the show to begin. When the show started the Duffy king grabbed a guitar and danced like a rock n roll star! When Rosie came on stage, Mr Bingo, the Duffy king stopped and lay down on the floor. We all laughed!

Bingo and Duffy king asked if we can sing the full song of Duffy kid.  We happily shouted “YES!!!!!”  They started singing the song and we all followed. After the singing, they started to get really funny. They were talking about books and reading books and how fun reading is. When Rosie and Duffy found out that Bingo does not read books they decided that they would help him learn how to read because they think that he couldn’t read at all and they felt so sorry for him…..

When they told Mr Bingo about their plan to help him, he said to them, “I know how to read but I simply don’t like reading. I like sports not reading! Reading is boring!” Duffy king thought of another Idea to make Mr. Bingo to like reading. “The Very Best Book, a made up book by Duffy King should encourage him”, Duffy muttered to himself. He made an empty book and told us to put our great ideas into the book. When all our Ideas  were in,  it was time to give it to Mr. Bingo!

Mr Bingo started reading the Very Best book but he still did not like reading it.  He was still not interested at all! He said to them that he prefers to ride on an aeroplane than doing reading. When he got to the plane, Duffy and Rosie decided to make the airplane to fly so slow so Bingo would feel bored then he had no other choice but to read the book. He started reading and before he knew it, he finished reading the whole book as the plane was landing on a rugby field.

They got to the stadium just as the rugby tournament was starting. He was one of the rugby players. While playing, he suddenly did ballet moves and he looked cool like a real ballerina. He scored a try and won the game! Rosie and Duffy knew that Bingo read the Ballet Book. Duffy made Rosie the queen of books because it was her book that made Mr. Bingo finally able to like to read books.

The Duffy Theatre was amazing! I wish that there will be many people like Mr. Duffy and Rosie who help kids to love reading because Reading is Fun! I also wish that there will be another Duffy Theatre happening in our school again soon!
