Now, money grows on trees!

On a dark Saturday evening, my family, friends and I went to my friend, Tristan’s birthday held at my other friend Ace’s house because Tristan’s house is too small for a party.

When we got there, we said, “Happy Birthday” to Tristan. There was not many things for us to do but to play on our ipads, phones and tablets so I asked my sister for her phone. I played a game called money tree. The main goal is to tap the tree on the screen  so that the money will fall.

Before long, I got bored of the game so I watched some youtube videos. I watched Dance Central three game play so I could get used to the dances. I watched about 20 different dances.

After a few minutes, it was time to eat. I ate some chicken, spaghetti and rice. I was full after eating. It was very delicious.

Soon, after I finished eating, Tristan and I decided to watch what was on television. We watched karate kid. It is about a kid who tries to win a karate tournament.

When the movie finished, we had to go. We walked home because our house is close by. Next time we go to a party I hope there are more games because it was slightly boring. Maybe we could play some outdoor activity next time if someone has a ball.

Ow! My tooth hurts!

One a sunny Monday morning, my mum and I went to the Dentist in Pt.England for my tooth extraction.

Before we went, I had some breakfast. I had some scrumptious spaghetti. After that I got changed and my mum and I went to the Panmure shops to catch the bus.

Soon, we hopped off at the closest bus stop and we went to the Pt.England Dentist, which is just next to Pt.England School. we waited nearly a whole hour before the dentist called us in. I was a bit scared.

First, the dentist numbed my tooth with anesthetic so my tooth wouldn’t hurt when it gets removed. It took a while before my mouth was numb. Then it was extraction time, the dentist got out a tool and wriggled the tooth out. It hurt just a bit.

After the dentist appointment, the dentist gave us the tooth in a tissue because the tooth was bleeding. We went home in the bus. Whenever I eat now, the place where the tooth used to be feels a bit weird because I use that tooth mostly for biting my food and now it's not there.

Attack, cats!

On a cold Saturday Evening, my friends, family and I went to my friend’s house because it was his birthday.

When we got there, I went upstairs and played with my friends. We played on tone of my friend’s ipad. We played a game called Battle Cats, It was a really fun game. The game was about the cats (you) are trying to take over the world. We beat a lot of countries and the hardest country we beat was Japan because their boss was really strong.

Soon we had to eat. There was lots of different, tasty food to choose from. I ate a few nuggets and some rice. I was full after eating that.

Later my friends and I played hide n seek in the dark. The room was so dark, I couldn’t see a thing! My hiding spot I mostly hid in was the corner of the room because I wasn’t found when I hid there.

After a few rounds of hiding, We went downstairs to watch my friend open the presents. The funniest present he got was from his brothers because they gave him some crackers! It was funny but he still ate it. He got cool presents like Teenage mutant ninja turtle toys, they were small and plastic. He also got big, plastic super hero toys, some could move and some could talk!

We did a quick warm up, then we did some drills like egg beater and four corners. Egg beater is a shooting drill with two balls. Four corners is a passing drill with one to four balls and the more balls, the harder it gets. Soon we did a five on five game. We did not count the scores but we had fun.

Later some of my teammates and I  went to my teammates house which was at West Auckland. We went to my teammate’s room and played his PS4. The first game we played was minecraft. We played the tutorial , went on creative mode and found all the secrets. We found all the 12 music discs, found stampy’s house and found Mojang’s Castle. I already found all the secrets but one music disc. Then we made a rapid fire arrow shooter. We filled it with flame charges, but the flame charges burned the sand temple.

Eventually we had lunch. We ate one of my favourite foods which is spam and rice. It was really tasty and delicious! Also, I drank a cup of water afterwards.

Not before long, we went back to the room and played PS4 . We watched Five Nights at Freddy 4 gameplay and theories on youtube. The my friend played NBA2k15. The match was Golden State Warriors vs Spurs.

Meanwhile my other friend and I played Minecraft Pocket Edition on our phone and tablet. We cut some trees down and made a house. Suddenly, I got lost! I couldn’t find the house until I saw my friend’s name tag so I ran towards it and helped build the house.

Time flew by and we had to go. It was fun going to my friend’s house. I wish we had more time so we could finish building the house together.
