Jumping all the way to BED!

Phew!

I am exhausted! Do you want to know why? Well I'm going to tell you anyway......


9:00 am at school ready for choir practice 

9:30 at choir practice singing my heart out!

12:00 at Enrich 

12:10 lunch (yum)

1:15 TALENT DEVELOPMENT (yay)

1:20 dance practice learning all of the verses to one of our awesome songs 

2:30 blogging (which is what Im doing right now.)


Does that seem tiring to you? Well it is when you have to practice 15 songs! But it's fun if you enjoy singing!

It was the dancing that really took it out of me...... 
I am a dancer so when Nicola told me it would be really tiring I thought I'm a dancer so it shouldn't be too bad.
But I was wrong - very wrong - in fact,  I'm still panting right now.  I'll let one thing slip about the dance and it's that there is a lot of jumping and that's why I'm sooo tired! Looking forward to my bed tonight!

Spoilt rotten and turning purple


Today at Writer's Studio I wrote a story about a spoilt rotten little girl....


COPY STARTS
I always get what I want

Hello my name is Olivia Im 4 years old and this is a day in the life of me - I named this story I always get what I want because I do! Its very true - all I have to do is scream and cry a bit!

ponies

Today I hope to get a pony - not a big big horse but maybe a shetland pony (my mum had to help me spell that) 

YAY

this is how it went down...

We arrived at the farm at 1:30pm (Im very smart aren’t I, I can tell the time) We looked for a while then I saw the one I wanted..... she’s taller than me (only a bit though) I pointed at her  and said to Dad “I want her” in a lispy baby vioce 
and guess what he said?  No! but then I screamed my heart out like “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” I screamed so much I turned purple.  Dad thought I was choking and then I screamed “PONY I WANT PONY” then he had to say yes because we were drawing a crowd. He forked out the $1,000 for her. I called her Daisy. 

GTG (got to go see I can even speak teen)
and ride on Daisy

COPY ENDS

Hope you liked it

Hello 

Today we did mind mapping

MIND MAPPING "(yay)"

It's not the ordinary old form of mind-mapping where we put a word in a bubble and put lines around the bubble.

It's more like put a picture in the middle and put branches around the picture.

We did a mind map about our gifted person we have chosen for our study about gifted adults. For mine I have chosen 
the wonderful the amazing and very creative
WALT DISNEY!! (creator of mickey mouse)



mind map

                    Walt Disney






mind map about Walt Disney





And to top off the day we had photo shoots! All of the performance group got to do a photo shoot...... I would love to show you the pics but iphoto isn't cooperating =( Maybe next week?

Hi guys 

Sorry for not posting for the last few weeks, but I'm here now, and posting

Today, I got to be a DJ for a day :)

Well not the whole day, as its not even lunch yet but Im planning to be one for the rest of the day:)

This probably doesn't make sense right now so I will explain: It started off as any normal day at Enrich, then after morning tea there was passion time (still normal). Since I'm in performance its important for me to learn about rhythm and that kind of thing, so for half an hour we were allowed to go on garageband and make a song type of thing. So we did, then halfway through my song I realised that creating beats is really fun. I like doing it, so now I don't know but I might be a DJ:)

Calligraphy

Hi                                                                                                             
                                                                                                             
Sorry I haven't been blogging for a few weeks.                                     
                                                                                                             
Anyway...                                                                                                  
                                                                                                             
Zoom went the car as we raced to Enrich, we were late-very late I looked at my watch 12:00 o-clock PM. This may look bad but not at all, I just had choir practice for sing out which if you live                round Invercargill I hope to see you at. Yay calligraphy, so after        lunch we learnt calligraphy it was our rotation time but we just            had a small class today (13) so we all did calligraphy. We first         started with normal lettering then onto some strokes then onto the             real lettering. I'm not very good at it but I can do it.                       
                                                                                                             
Now for the final bit, a poster.  It is like a wordel or something           along those lines but I'm choosing to do either a wordel about           happiness or a picture with a message like...                                                             
                                                                                                             
SMILE COS YOU CAN.

I'm so excited!

Would you read a newspaper made by us the kids of Enrich@ILT?

Well I hope you said yes because we (the kids of Enrich) are publishing a newspaper!

So if you're in the Invercargill location look out for it! 

I'm so excited! I've been been smiling so much that my cheek muscles are hurting, but I cant stop - in fact I'm smiling now (ahhh). Why, you ask?
YAY! Im doing an interview with a professional lawyer in the Enrich neighborhood - Mr Fergus More.  

There is also another reason why Im excited because were performing our monologues today.  If you read my last posts you would know that I am Alice from Alice in Wonderland. I'm also nervous, so please wish me luck.

Bye-Mia

DRAMA,DRAMA,DRAMA

Ahh.. frantic, frantic, frantic!

Quickly quickly quickly, tiiiiimes up! I take a look at Joey, Tessa Rhea and my attempt at using our bodies to make a car (but in ten seconds its a little hard)

Here you try it.  Ok,  you need four people and in ten seconds get yourselves into a car made only of your bodies (not as easy as it sounds)

Then we did a washing machine - that was sooo much fun! That exercise is called spatial drama and the other was called psychological drama.  This exercise (called There's Only One Liar) goes like this...

So there's a circle. One person in the circle goes around the circle and taps one person on the shoulder each round,  then each person in the circle thinks of one person in the circle who they think got tapped, and then they point at them.

 SPOILER ALERT!
ok now only the person who's tapping the shoulders read this bit ok so now in the first round you tap nobody then in the second round tap everybody so you will be the one liar.
