Speech!!!!

My speech was about Dubai.
I think something that was good about my speech was that it had a lot of information about Dubai.
If there was something that I would have done differently it would be to make it a bit funny.

Maths

5 areas of maths that I'm good at are working form mult, working form sub, working form add, graphs and add & sub mental strategies.
2 things I  need to work on is area and volume.
Is there anyone who is good at them and knows a really easy way of remembering how to do them?

Holiday

This holidays I didn't do much because I was at my friends house for most of the first week. I was helping her pack because she was moving houses. If I wasn't at her house I was at home watching TV and on the computer. I also had a dancing performance on the first Saturday. My favourite bit of my holidays was the first Friday because I went to the Titanium concert with Kelly and Peta. It was really fun because we got to meet them and some other NZ singers including Brooke Duff, J Williams, Mixt Frequencies, K One, Joshy and Tom Hollow. We also got their signatures and got hugs from them. :)
On the second week I went to Martinborough with my family and some of my family friends. It was an hour long drive which wasn't that boring because all of my friends were in one car. We had loud music on and we were singing really loudly (I think it annoyed my friends dad). We were going to go quad biking but they were closed. :( Then we went to a beach but we weren't aloud to go near the water because it was high tide. So we just had to stand there and stare... The only thing we did was go to a vine yard and a really boring park. On the way back to Wellington we stopped at H2O extreme, which was the only good thing about trip. I was at in Marinborough from Tuesday to Friday so for the rest of the week I was resting (TV and computer). :)
Do you like Titanium and what was your favourite part of your holidays?

Passion Project

For my passion project I am doing photography.

Do you think that this sounds interesting or boring?

Printing

For my printing art work I did lots of koru's because they look really nice and I like koru's.

My theme is fire so I made the background look like fire. I ink printed the design onto my

background. My original idea was to do only the middle design but it looked a bit empty.

So I added the the strips on the side. This art work is for our calander.

The Mentalist

The Mentalist is a police investigation TV series that goes on TV2. It is created by Bruno Heller and directed by Chris Long and David Nutter.

The main characters are:

•  Simon Baker as Patrick Jane. He works as a criminal consultant for the California Bureau of Investigation (CBI). Someone known as Red John murdered Patrick’s wife, Angela and their daughter Charlotte. He mainly joined the CBI because he wanted to capture Red John and even kill him. Patrick Jane is very helpful because he can read people’s minds.

• Robin Tunney as Teresa Lisbon, the Senior Special Agent.  She is the leader of the Serious Crime Unit team of which Patrick is part of. She views Patrick as a valuable member of the team but Patrick often annoys her with his unusual behaviour and going behind her back.

• Tim Kang as Kimball Cho. Kimball is a special agent with the CBI and a member of the Serious Crime team.

• Owain Yeoman as Wayne Rigsby. Wayne is also a special agent who is a member of the Serious Crime team.

• Amanda Righetti as Grace Van Pelt is a special agent and she is a member of the Serious Crime team.

The Serious Crime team is responsible for the Red John case but they also solve other small cases.

I really like this TV show because you never know whats going to happen in every episode and it is really cool how Patrick Jane reads people's minds and finds things out. Also every episode is a good one. 

2012 PRODUCTION!!

Production this year was really good and it went much better than what I thought. :) I really liked all the dances especially Midas and Ugly Duckling. ;) Everyone did really well mainly Olivia, Lucy W, Isaac and Aiden. I'm quite sad that it's over because it was really fun working on the production. I bet it's the best production this school has done. :D  WooHoo!
