🧟 Horror Camping Trip Gone Wrong - Creative Writing 🧟


Horror Camping Trip Gone Wrong



As Aira parks, the car near a large weeping willow, Anna and Mason jump out of the car and
begin unpacking the tent. Noah and Aira start getting out the bags packed with food. Soon Noah begins following a path and so we head along with him. Later we come to a halt as we notice a sign which designates a camping area. So we stop and start setting everything up.
Aira confronts nervously, " Wait, we are three miles away from the car, what if something bad happens in the night".
Mason replies, " What could possibly be so terrifying that we have to run three miles". 
Aira nods and continues unpacking the marshmallows for the smores.
Once they got everything assembled and ready, they begin to search logs for the campfire. ", I'll go get the branches and twigs for the campfire, Anna comes with me " shouts Mason as he starts running into the woods. Anna follows along. 
" Aira pass the marshmallows " yells Noah. Aira passes the marshmallows when she notices something strange. Noah has bite marks all over his hand and arm. 
" Noah, why do you have bite marks all over your arm", asks Aira apprehensively. At that same moment, Anna and Mason rush out of the woods and hide behind the tents. They both seem frightened but of what?
" What happened, and why are they no logs with you", anxiously queries Noah.
" We saw a zombie running towards us, so we ran as fast as we could until we saw you guys," says Anna. 
" Guys, I want to confess something" states Noah in a scared and serious approach.
We all look to him with surprise and think to themselves, what could be more important than zombies attempting to follow or even kill us.
Mason catches his breathe and answers  " What is it ?".
" I am a zombie" shouts Noah and starts to peel off a mask. We are all shocked and frightened so run as fast as we can towards out car but then.........
As we are running, out of nowhere 2 other zombies pop out of the trees. Mason grabs a zombies hand and yanks it out. The zombie faints and falls onto Anna which she then uses it as a shield. We see several zombies arriving behind us, as fast as we can we run towards the car and hop in.
" Lock all the doors, hurry up" yells Aira. Aira is sitting in the driver's seat horrified and shaking. Aira starts the car and drives as fast as she can out of the camping area, but soon in the boot, something begins to make groaning sounds...
 THE END

🔨 My Balancing Toy - 2018 🔨

My Balancing Toy Reflection :

This is the picture of my work, that I was doing in technology with Mr Reese. I was unable to complete my balancing toy because later in the term I had lost some pieces which made me slow down and I was not productive and using my time very well. I really enjoyed using drills and machines to complete my work. I learnt quite a lot of things throughout this process but mostly how to follow safety signs and how to be safe around dangerous equipment. One challenge I faced was trying to file continuously because it takes quite long to get it to the right angle. But I overcame it by exerting myself to stay on task and stay focused. I really enjoyed getting out of my comfort zone. Thanks, Mr Reese =).

And if the weather is sunny leggings and a T-shirt will work. The table above is what we will need for the trip.

☀️Weather With You ☔ - Creative Writing ☀️

☀️Weather With You 



The Sun is shining bright
Although clouds are hiding it's sight
She smiles as she capers 
She knows the sun won't be around for long
So she gets out her drawing paper.


He watches as raindrops pitter patter
On the ground; what a disgrace
The laughter and smiles wiped off his face
He starts to develop a frown 
Soon he's bawling on the ground.

Once upon a time, there lived a surprisingly diminutive Yeti. He lived high in the Himalayas in a cabin built out of sticks and branches. Although he was small he had an unusual talent, he was able to change his size based on his mood (angry bigger & happy smaller). One day the Yeti was strolling along the snow and he slipped in a hole and got stuck. The Yeti got really angry and began to expand due to his expertise. Then Yeti realised he has a unique talent, so he thought of something which made him smile and he gradually decreased in size and emerged out of the hole.
