Can you survive the 'Do Not Laugh' challenge?

Tristan’s Party!
On Sunday, Tristan and our family prepared for his birthday party. We cooked food while Tristan’s family went out to buy siomai. Time flew really fast. It was 8:00 pm already and people started coming for the celebration.

Our friends came and we started karakia before eating our food. I chose three pieces of siomai with a little soy sauce. After eating the delicious food. We watched Do Not Laugh Challenge with the birthday boy.

But he laughed while watching that weird dinosaur so he lost. Dhon and I were left to continue on the challenge but none of us won because it did not make us laugh. It was not really funny. After that I brought my laptop to my room.

I played Augoeides. It was really fun. I wish I can play more but we had to take a photo before Tristan’s and his friends leave. After the picture taking, Tristan’s family and his friends left. Then I continued playing Augoeides with my brother. We fought tons of bosses but sadly we needed to go to sleep as it is was already midnight.

That was a very awesome birthday party! I hope mine will be better and more fun!

Cousins, come to me!

On Saturday, my family and I went to Sylvia Park to buy
groceries. Then we came back home at 3:00 pm because we had to pick up my auntie from the airport. While we were waiting, I decided to buy a frozen fanta for one dollar, I went back to my seat and drank it.

We waited for one hour for my aunt to come out. My drink was almost finished, when we saw my aunty pushing her luggage trolley I excitedly ran swiftly to give her a big hug and welcomed her to New Zealand. 

After that all of us went to my friend’s house to celebrate my friend’s birthday. When we reached our destination, we went inside, I took a plate and ate three slices of pizza. It was del icious I wanted more but they ran out.

After eating, I asked Moki (Friend) for the WiFi password. Later on he gave me back the phone with the WiFi on. So I watched funny moments. I like the part about a cat that got tricked by a little kid.


I watched at least five episodes. I wanted to watch more but we needed to go home, so I shut down the phone and headed to my our car. When we got home we quickly dropped of my auntie’s luggage then we all went to my cousin’s house for a singing party. While the adults were singing, I played Roblox with Hans. Hans and I were having so much fun but we needed to go home because it was already 12:30 am.


Finally my auntie is here! I wish my other cousins could come to us so we can have more fun just like before when we were still in the Philippines.

What is you favourite type of dog?


Image result for labrador retrieverOn Saturday, I was playing with my dog Hershey. But later on my mom said. “We are going to our friend’s house” I made Hershey fall asleep so that she won't be sad and not notice that we are gone. Then we got ready and left the house.



When we reached our destination, I saw my cousin Dhon and he brought his little brother’s blowing bubbles toy, we all played with it. He tried to catch all the bubbles and duplicate them without using any bubble mixture. Then the owner said, “Come inside!” So Dhon and I went inside.
Image result for shih tzu We met a shih tzu dog which was super cute. His name was Tommy and he was trained well. He never bites and never barks to us. he runs fast as a cheetah and likes to chew his chew toy.
After playing with the cute dog, my friends said the karakia (Prayer). After the prayer I chose wicked wings, rice, meat ball, for my dinner. I sat down next to the T.V and watched Wipe Out while eating.
Wipeout was about finishing the obstacles as fastest as you can. The winner gets to date with Jennifer a very pretty girl in the game. People kept on failing and I liked it! After that we watched a movie called Evolution. It was about animals harmless that turned into deadly monsters. I didn't like that movie because it as boring. After watching we checked to watch zombie land. It was about four people trying to find resources and live through the apocalypse. I liked it but we needed to go home because it was already 11:00 pm.

Wow! That was an awesome party. I wish we can do it again so we can visit their more often and I can play with Tommy again.
