It is so boring to get out of bed just before sunrise and to waste 10 minutes of your day making breakfast. But if you think about it, I am actually blessed to even have easy access to food and water. “Praise the Lord”, I said to myself.</span></div>

I thought to myself, “can’t there just be one day where I wake up and hear the sound of birds flying past my house, chirping?”. Anyway I hurry to my siblings room to get them to safety. It was time to leave the country. </span></div>

England has been really cool. Learning, playing with my friends and most of all getting netbooks. I have really easy access to the internet and knowledge where kids in other parts of the world don’t go to school. I am so grateful for living in New Zealand.</span></div>

I know I can be successful but I need to learn. I wish I could go to school but my family can’t afford for me to go to school. I don’t have internet, and not enough food and water for my brain to develop properly. I need to get a better education.</span></div>

Kids all over the world probably play this game all day and night. I used to be at level 36 until my account got banned, now I am at level 6. You can challenge other players, do quest and buy armors, weapons, helmets and capes for your character. You can also buys adventure coins or a membership to upgrade your account. In this game me and my friends are in a clan called the ‘NZ_CLAN’. </span></div>

They moved ‘All Saints Day’ from May 13th to November 1st. People used to say All hallows eves instead of Samhain, which was a day before All saints day then finally it became Halloween. Samhain was a day to celebrate good harvest, the days became shorter and the nights grew longer.</span></div>

November 2nd, also known as all souls day. On that day People used to pray for people in purgatory, and in exchange they got little soul cakes. </span></div>

Well this year the X Factor is holding a competition in America. The winner of the X Factor U.S.A will win $1,000,000.00 and a recording contract with Sony. People from all around the globe wouldn't travel to America just to watch the X Factor, so thats why you can watch it on your television, just click to channel three at 7:30pm on a Thursday and Friday night. </span></span></div>

There have probably been hundreds or even thousands of auditions, but only the ones that the judges think have potential go threw to the round. The judges are Simon Cowell, Demi Lovato, Paulina Rubio, and Kelly Rowland. There have been good, bad, excellent and terrible auditions, but so far my favourite audition has to be ‘AKNU’. AKNU is a group that consist of three men, they are all brothers, and without a doubt they are good singers.</span></span></div>

After all that learning and development that I have gained this term, I finally get a break. It is the holidays, always the perfect time when families relax. So far my family hasn't done anything cool, in other words my holiday has been pretty boring. I wish I could go to Rainbow's End, or even go to the pools, but instead I have to stay home with my 3 siblings and parents.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>When school was still on I couldn't wait for the holidays to come. Now it has, I am stuck at home with nothing to do. Sometimes I wish I could get out of bed at 7:45am and go to school. I don't know why I hate getting up to go to school so much, but sometimes I like it. Maybe its because of all the learning ? I don't know, but when I'm at home I feel like playing touch with my friends on our school field.<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Hopefully in the weeks to come my family will do something Cool. TO BE CONTINUED!<br />

<span style="font-family: Lobster; font-size: 19px; line-height: 1.15; white-space: pre-wrap;">Our movie was based on the start and end of World War Two. Our purpose was to inform our audience about how world war 2 started and ended. I think we achieved our goal because that was our main focus in the movie. </span> <br />

<span style="font-family: Chewy; font-size: 19px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">What was good is that we did a lot of animation and we finished the actual movie (wasn't on time)! We completed our movie in the extended time we were given. We did a good job with the voice over, because it was clear and it explained a lot of information. Also we put a good sound track in the background, that matched the mood of the movie. Another positive was that we were happy with our finished product.</span></div>
