Chrismas and New Year Holiday

My family is having a reunion on my Dad's side, with my cousins from London, Texas, Australia, New Zealand and the Philippines. We plan to stay at a hotel near the beach and visit our newly built house. We haven't decided much on Christmas but on New Year we will light fireworks and go to Makati, Metro Manila to see the huge fireworks. 

College

I still have a year but college sounds a bit intimidating. All my cousins have given me advice but I'm stll not a assured. I will look forward to the independence and privledges but maybe teachers could be grumpy, I don't know. I wish good luck to the year 8's.

My Trip

Hey guys, my flight was okay, not bad. I'm now here in the Philippines. Singapore was great. There was a day when it was boiling hot, then in the afternoon it started raining hard. My hotel had five Asian Water Monitor Lizards and Asian Squirrels. A baby Monitor Lizard swam in the outdoor swimming pool. Nothing else happened much so yeah.

Dino Day Reflection

Dino Day was okay but the weather was miserable. It was wet and showering a bit. What we did was we got into groups of four or five and chose from a range of dinosaur figurines, researched them and made a short documentary on them. My group chose the ankylosaurus, stegosaurus and the pterodactyl. I didn't really like the filming part and the researching, I would of preferred just reading about them or drawing them. I'm typing this just after we finished our film, so I think if the weather clears up, we might have a game of Dino Dodgeball. I'm not sure how to play this game but hopefully it's as good as normal Dodgeball. Even though Dino Day isn't finished yet, I didn't really enjoy it much. It wasn't that bad but it was quite boring.

Fireworks Question

Do you like fireworks?

Fireworks on Guy Fawkes?

Should New Zealanders celebrate a guy called Guy Fawkes who had something to do with blowing up the English Parliament? I think New Year should be celebrated with fire works as I know it is in the Philippines. Fireworks can symbolize New Year like a new beginning as a firework explodes. I absolutely think that Guy Fawkes should be celebrated without fireworks, and New Year with fireworks.
