The Abandoned Barn

It was Halloween, the sky was pitch black, the moon had risen suddenly lightning bolts were thundered down.Leon, Mari, Greg and Noah were a bunch of teens as soon as they saw the lightning they ran for cover under a tree.Then they saw a barn in the distance.

“Yozza Greg you know this area right” Noah said with swagger.
”oh yeah this place is really run down,but word on the street is that that barn is the scariest place in the world.”
“How do you know this, do your science nerds live in this area.”
“Were called Zoltan and yes Ned lives around here.”
“Isn't that he that person that peed his pants”Mari said.
“Hey who cares let’s just go over there and have some fun” Leon said with anger .

 Mari started to get goose bumps and Greg’s teeth were chattering and Noah tried to hide his fear, while Leon led the way.Clump clump the sound of their steps in the mud “OMG my heels are muddy now, thanks a lot Leon” “ you're welcome Mari.” he said sarcastically

They had gotten to the door and Leon pushed it open then entered, then suddenly a gust of wind slammed the door shut, but they remained calm.The whole barn was a mess there was rubble,rats, and dead cows all over the place.Suddenly Mari saw a sheet on the ground move,so she went to go and check it out.Suddenly a swarm of Black Widows scurried and hid under the floorboards “AHHHHHHH!!!”Mari screamed with fear.

“Look” Greg said the spiders came out and went into the cow's mouth then moments later they ran out then the cows eyes opened and all you could hear is a loud MOO “holy shiznit the cows alive”Naoh said then he had picked up some rubble and throw it at its head then nothing happened then Naoh touched it “NOOOO!!!” Then a thing came out of the cows mouth and ate him with a huge gulp

“AAAAHHHHH!!!” Mari screamed once again “It ate Noah” Mri said
“Go run” Leon said then he grabbed a nearby pipe and hit it with one blow.They ran into the other room and locked the door.MOO!! “ahhh” Greg said
“Shhh Mari” Leon said
“That was Greg” Mari said
“Oh” Leon said

BANG!BANG!BANG! the cow was ramming into the door the ”The hinges are going to let out at any minute” Greg said. It went silent They armed themselves Leon opened the door and the cow laid dead again on the rubble. “What just happened ?” Leon said They walked Leon lead the way with Mari at the back there was a. Bang everyone turned then something snatched Mari they ran for the door but the cow was in the way MOO.They ran for the back door but the spiders were there “Theres no way out” Greg said then he tripped over a handle “Look its a hatch” Greg said.They ran into it and closed the hatch behind them, they were in a abandoned  wine cellar there was an exit on the far side of the room.

They ran for it when suddenly the cow rammed through the hatch and the spider followed “Oh no” Greg said as they ran as fast as they could “We won’t make it” Greg said

“We can make it” Leon said they ran and Leon rammed the door smashing it into pieces.The sun rose and as soon as the cow got into the sunlight it vanished into dust and so did the spider then, the wind blew it away and what was left was Mari and Noah.


THE END OR IS IT?????

Bush Story

It was a sunny when me and my friend Kobe went camping in the damp forest we found the perfect place to set up camp it only took us 10 minutes to set up the tent so we thought we should go exploring in the forest.  

We ventured into the forest and we came across a sign that said “Danger Do NOT Proceed” we ignored the sign and continued anyway.The sun started to set and a shroud of fog surrounded us and we started to go back the way we came back soon we got lost but we remained calm.We tried to use our phones but there was no signal we tried to find help but it failed we had enough food and water to last only one day.

We made a fire with some wood and a bed with the surrounding materials.Using our fire we cooked some fish we caught.We tried to go to sleep but it was impossible with all the bug climbing on us we hoped that the fog would have cleared by the morning we woke up in the morning the sun was shining and the fog has cleared.

We saw a cabin in the distance we went to it and knocked on the door a man opened the door.We asked him “can you help us”

“Yes”he said I knew we were saved he took us to our campsites.I said to Kobe “this is an experience I am never going to forget”

Joshua Iosefa Coming To Point England

Today Joshua Iosefa came to Point England School we sang a waiata and then he recited his poem Brown Brother.Next he told us the story of how he came up with the Idea of the Brown Brother he said he had a moment of inspiration while watching t.v.

After he was asked a series of questions, including who are your role model he answered god and his grand parents. Crusader asked him what Rugby position do you play he said center stage right (he doesn't play rugby)

Cross Country Practise

I woke up thinking this day was going to be like any other day but it wasn’t. I walked through the gate and saw some of my friends playing on their netbooks. I saw Kobe he told me something, he said, “today is cross country practise” “Oh no it’s cross country practice again” I said. Today was normal until 2:50 pm.

“Hurry up we have to run” Kobe said. We went up to the startline and we were off. We ran down the road as fast as we could, running ,running and running until we could not run anymore.When we got tired we started to jog or walk. Kobe, Tau and I stuck together.We ran down to the beach and then we turned around heading back to school.

We sprinted until we couldn't anymore. Then we started to walk and people started to pass us. We started to run and we got to the gate, we ran through and we finished. “Yes” I said. We got our bags and we went home.

My project reflection

The Project was tough because there was not that much info on the controversy.The project about Ross Rebagliati it was not complete on time unfortunately.I didn't do that good according to the Rubric I took too long.My strong points on the rubric was my infomation for my script.My weak point’s was my soundtrack and voiceover my visual and conclusions.

When I finish the project I hope the project will look great.

Smoking

Cigarettes have 4000 chemicals that can cause cancer and can cause changes on the outside of the body that smoking cause.Also the money you can save is substantial around 8000 dollars a year. Cigarettes contain chemicals from everyday products.So DO NOT SMOKE

Smoking gives you cancer I know you know that but the cancer can be in any part of your body. Cigarette have around 4000 chemicals in them it contains chemicals including Benzene0  (petrol additive), Formaldehyde (embalming fluid), ammonia (nail polish remover)(fly spray)(jet fuel).The tar in your lungs will give a bad cough it will feel like you're coughing up a lung so I hear.So people have to get amputations (get limbs cut off) beacause the blood stops flowing to those arms or legs.By smoking you triple your chance of getting cancer.

Not only will it affect the inside of your body it will affect the outside and you can get bad breath which will smell horrible,you will have yellow fingernails and burnt fingertips and black teeth and rotting gums.The chemicals from the smokes can you skin to tighten and can give you some wrinkles.The effects of smoking is not worth it to me so i'm never going to start.

If  you smoke one pack a day you can save up to around 100 dollars a week,400 dollars in a month and 8000 dollars a year for one pack of smokes.You can save a substantial amount of money if you you don’t start at all.The addictive drug will make you wanting more and more until you smoke a pack of cigarettes a day.

I reckon teens start smoking because of peer pressure and everyone around them is doing it and they pressure them.People just want to fit in so they start and can not stop.
