Poor Jenn

She had been squished flatter than a pancake. Jenn was at Lindsey's house for a play date. They had made a hut under the table but as Jenn sat in it the table collapsed on her. Lindsey was super sorry that the table had collapsed, so she began to blow Jenn up. Poor Jenn inflated like a balloon. She even floated like she was full of helium. Now Jenn was in the top right corner of Lindsey’s kitchen. “HELP” shouted Jenn. Lindsey’s little sister Perry ran in to the kitchen. “Oh no! I didn’t know we had helium”. “Perry no!” said Lindsey “she got squished so I blew her back up”. Lindsey ran to the phone, she dialed 111. “Hello what is your emergency” said the woman on the phone, “well my table fell down, my best friend was squished and I tried to blow her up but she went up to the ceiling like a helium balloon!” “ha ha funny” said the woman. Lindsey hung up. Now what could the girls do? “Pop me” shouted Jenn from the ceiling. Perry ran to the pin board and got a pin, “here goes nothing Jenn”. Perry stood on a chair, she could not reach Jenn on the ceiling. “Oh bananas!” said Perry. After 3 hours Jenn was still on the ceiling! A yawn came from the lounge, Lindsey's mum was awake now. She walked into the kitchen. “AHHH JENN” shouted Lindsey’s mum “okay blow out Jenn”. Jenn blew out all the air she had. Slowly she fell down to the floor. The girls all learnt to get mum next time.

the storm last night

Today we wrote senses poems about the Auckland storm last night. Here is mine. 

I see the lightning flash beneath my eyes. 
I hear my rattling window dancing in the wind.
I feel the carpet under my feet as I move to sleep in the hallway. 
I smell my wet dog who escaped into the storm.
I taste my duvet as I nibble it anxiously.
I feel scared as I wait to see how hard we were hit.

The Best Dance Ever

As I walk into my changing room I spot all my friends. I go and take a seat as I re-apply my makeup. Then me and my crew went over our routine, even though I was in my hip hop costume. We took a photo and found a spot to relax.

Me and my hip hop squad were called backstage. We fixed up our bobby pins so our hats would stay on. We creeped to the side of the stage to see the last people finish their dance.

I heard the music start. My heart was beating fast. I ran on stage on my own. Later in the dance I grooved to the front to take my front and center position. Around 2 minutes later we all danced off stage and a big cheer goes up. I rushed to the changing rooms and swapped costumes. Soon my mum came in and re-did my hair and makeup before I was back on the side of the stage getting ready to go on and dance.

We ran on like little pixies in our jazz shoes. The music began. I hoped I would get my cue to jump up correct and I did. Before I knew it I was doing my solo part; a sassy point and hip wiggle. We ran to the edge and got our flags to wave in the air. I had the german flag. Then we posed and left the stage.

My mum came and got me and we went into the auditorium to watch the rest of the show. Then we had the AWARDS!!!!! My name was on the award list twice! The first award I got was a top dancer certificate for American jazz. Next I got a most improved certificate for hip hop! I was so so outstanded!

We had that over and done with but I had to go back at night to repeat my hip hop routine.
