Zorbing



The most amazing thing in the world.

Well from that video and the ladies nice commentary looks nice and peaceful, write. Well its not. What you just saw was someone in a ball with some water rolling down a zig zag course. It such a fun sport rolling down the hill and I would know I have done that exact same thing 4 times (and once on the straight track). Zorbing originating in Rotoura is just amazing. You have so many options about how you want to role down a hill in a giant plastic ball. You can role down a striaght track or a zig zag. Tie your self to the ball or go for a swim and slide round with water in side the ball and if you choose you can do it with friends. Personal I don't like the idea of friends some how I think you would bash heads or something. The Zorb has avoled over its years and now has spread around the world. Now instead of rolling down a predtermined track with fences and staff to get you in and out of the zorb. You buy your own zorb choose a hill and role. Fun aye.

Lockers

I was really disappointed to the schools approach to the lockers. I mean they wanted us to pay $45 dollars for two terms of locker HIRE. I thought that was ridicules not to long ago. I mean the lockers aren't in a convenient place and $45 dollars for two terms thats just stupid. But still I went ahead and bought one thinking it will be very useful.

After a couple of weeks of use I can sort of see where the school is coming from. I mean the lockers are tiny (the school probably new that) and any place safe to put the lockers would be inconvenient. Saying that makes me direct my anger back to the school. I mean no warning that their would be a daily struggle to jam my A3 folder into my locker. No warning that I could only access my ICT locker before school at lunch and after school. I really don't see the point in a locker anymore its just a hassle of walking to it then having to walk all the way round the auditorium to the netball courts.

Year 6's

I guided some year 6's round the school today. They were from Red Beach (represent red beach da bomb me and Steen went there) there were to fast and liked to move to much. But luckly for the challenge course to tire (is that the right type of tyre or is it someting else???) them out. It was pretty sweet miss two blocks to point out buildings to a whole lot of littlees. Pretty curise job. There were a couple of preformances in the audioturem but the littles laughed at weird things. Ohwell laters.

What I am up to !!!!!!!

Well since my last post on Sunday a lot has changed on my English project. I ain't stuck on my topic anymore because of some information I found in an encyclopedia that has set me off in the write direction. Still school sucks. I have to do some stuff for maths due in Friday and couldn't do it in class because I was escorting some Year 6's (which was actually quite good). I have to do my concepts in Mtech and have a whole lot of social science to do. It sucks that I have to do all this work at home when there is a perfectly good PS3 and Guitar Hero 3 controller sitting there lonely and sad. Well I guess not lonely or sand because its made of plastic but still. Oh and yeah screw that weather. Its been 10 days since my birthday and still havn't been able to have a party because of the stupid rain. It should have been this saturday but the weather people said it was gunna be real bad weather and it wasn't that sucks. And cause of the weather I havn't played golf in like ummmmm well the 20/07/08 or at least thats what www.golf.co.nz says. Oh well laters yall. Like anyone would read this LOL

English

Well I have not written a blog in while so I will just write about this.

We were assigned these projects before the school holidays and with the amount of time we were given I thought It would be easy. But I was wrong. My first choice of topic was Kiwiana because its directly related to New Zealand. But I found that this topic way to broad and changed to something smaller, L&P. I gave up on this idea straight away because I just could not find enough information about it.

Then I thought I hit gold when I started reaserching Phil Taturanagi. I got really far in with this topic and even write a report to finish it off. But then I find out that all my information I use has to come from multiple sources and at that point my only source was one website and I was screwed.

Which brings me to where I am t0day. Working on my new topic ( What makes New Zealand golf special) for the past 10 days. Not playing golf. Not doing any other homework. And playing very little PS3 so I can get this project done. And then I hit a problem after reasearching so much on this topic. Printing off 50 pages of information and highliting it. I move on to a different question and there is no information on it. So now Ive played very little PS3. Im behind in blogs, Mtech, Graphics, Social Science, Science and Maths and having to rethink my topic (or at least my question). Wow that is annyonig
