100 WC 8

 I walk into school, and suddenly everyone starts laughing. I wonder why and look down at myself, thinking ill see my school uniform, and then I realised I didn't remember putting it on. i was wearing a pink fluffy unicorn jumper, and was wearing a pink tutu beneath it. I scream, and run away from the school, run home, and get home, and then see that my house is now a massive unicorns head!, it was a nightmare come true! I Scream and start looking around the house for something else, but i cant find anything else to dress in...

100WC #7

 This is my 100WC. Remember, if you get to my post in the first 60 minutes, you have a chance of having this featured in my next post.


It all began when Levi told William to go with him. They walked into a large mansion, and as soon as they entered, the door shut behind them. That's when he began to feel ill. He heard someone laugh, and could have sworn he saw something above him in a chandelier. He hears the laugh again, and something swoops at him from the chandelier. You run up to the staircase, and bound up it as fast as your legs can carry you. You enter a room and slam the door shut behind you, and wonder what you can do now.

*1000 IQ* Camp Reflection

 My Camp Reflection.

So... If you aren't a year 8 at OIS, in New Zealand, just keep scrolling.

I personally didn't like the Bike ride, because we all had to wait for a long time for quite a few people. If you were a competent bike rider, you would be at the front waiting for people to catch up. The second day, at Orokonui Ecosanctuary was alright, although some of it was not exactly fun. one of our guides was talking normally, and then suddenly just started singing some random song while we all stood there wondering what was happening. On day three we went to geraldine and did orienteering and high ropes, although we didn't have much time, because the bus ride took up 4 hours there and return. however, even though there wasn't much time, it was still enjoyable, and probably my favourite. The following day we had a choice day, which meant that we would choose what we did that day. The archery was pretty fun, although i was pretty bad at it. We then had a type of race with different challenges in it. On the final day, we had a sports rotation, and movies. Thank you for being considerate, and leave a comment. Remember, if you leave a comment in the first 60 minutes of a post being released, you will have a chance of it being featured in my next post down below the writing.

100WC

 William ran down the street, screaming his head off as the pumpkins came alive. It also started when his friends, Levi and Noah asked him if he wanted to go to the haunted house and practice his Latin... He should never have said yes. His friends had brought him some latin cards, and while most of them were legitimate, they had also brought with them a card saying "rise my pumpkin army, and consume everything you see!" William, not knowing that, had gone along and uttered those words, causing the pumpkins to come to life, dooming the town, and planet.

100wc

 I wheel myself slowly along the  road. My rider tries to control where I go, and so I allow him. We eventually end up where my rider wanted to go to, the local supermarket. When we arrive, my rider gets off me, and removes about 60kgs. He also takes my basket off me, and takes it into the shop. He returns with an extra 10kg of food. He steers me down the road, and i can feel myself becoming unbalanced again, and starting to wobble. My rider also senses this, and decides to ram me into a hay bale. oof.

Thursday, September 10, 2020

 i look towards the horizon, wondering what happened. i am the only one left able to move. i am constantly moving around, looking for more places to live, survive and hide from the abominations that turned this planet into what it is now. they came 5 years ago, claiming they were refugees. they lied. 3 years ago, they killed all the worlds leaders, then froze all time. i hear a cracking noise and see a rip in the fabric of their time spell. gradually, things started to move. that day, i almost cried with the joy of having other around.

100WC#Something

 I stare at the water bleakly, as I know that if I dive in, I will most likely never re-surface. I look back down at my claws and wonder  if this would be different if I had listened to what my family had told me. I was told not to go hunting when the ice was this thin, but I couldn't resist it when I saw the seal quietly slipping past me. As it slipped into the ocean, the ice began to break under my feet. I tried to run, but I lost my balance, and ended up here. Isolated

100wc# I can't be bothered to figure out.

I nervously walk onto the stage. The lights suddenly turn their full focus onto me, making me freeze. I walk to the front of the stage, and as I do, I trip over my feet, and fall onto my face, and that's when the crowd erupted with laughter. I try to stand up, and immediately fall on my face again, earning another fresh wave of laughter. I finally manage to get up, but then a cream pie is thrown at my face, stunning me and pushing me back. the crowd laughs, decides it looks fun, and joins in the throwing.

100wc # I Don't Know

I was wandering through the streets when I saw it, the largest creature in history. It glanced at me, and that's when it began, the fear. The monster let out an earsplitting roar, and Wandered through the city, destroying many skyscrapers and houses. It glances at tanks rumbling towards it, and lets out another roar. its scales light up red, and suddenly all that can be seen is the monster, glowing for all to see. suddenly, a massive rush of air spreads through the city, rushing towards the monster. It letes out one more massive roar, and destroys the city.

100WC#6

I was wandering along the street, and then i saw it. the treasure that changed my life. A Diamond! it was buried underneath the pavement, with just a little piece jutting out of the ground. i picked it up, and then I was transported to another dimension. it felt like i was swirling around and around. all i could see was a dark purple colour swirling around me. i look down, and realise it is also dark purple, and realise that this diamond was a trap. as i wondered what would happen to me, it started glowing brighter and brighter.....

What is a Volcano?

This is a piece of writing that i did a few weeks ago. I hope you enjoy it.

𝖂𝖍𝖆𝖙 𝖎𝖘 𝖆 𝖁𝖔𝖑𝖈𝖆𝖓𝖔?

A volcano is a mountain or hill, normally a cone shape. It has a crater or vent, which lava, pieces of rocks, extremely hot vapour, and gas, which erupt from the inside of the earth's crust. There are 3 types of volcanoes: the Dormant, Active, and Extinct. Dormant volcanoes are volcanoes that are not currently erupting, but are expected to in the near future. An example of this is Mount Kilimanjaro, which is in Tanzania, and has 3 volcanic openings. It is not currently erupting, but is expected to in the near future. One of the most active volcanoes is Mount Kilauea, in Hawaii, and is nearly 300-600,000 years old, which is very old for such an active volcano. One of the extinct volcanoes is Mount Buninyong, which means it has been inactive for over 10000 years, and is not expected to erupt again. The pacific ring of fire is where most of the eruptions happen, as well as a lot of earthquakes.

The structure of a volcano is different to normal mountains. It’s most well known part of it is the crater, which sits at the top of the volcano. This is where most of the lava flows out of the volcano, as it is the largest opening, and if the volcano should erupt, and it isn’t calm, then it will be spewed out of the crater extremely fast and violently. The lower part of it is the magma chamber, or reservoir, where the lava originates from. Then there is the throat. It is what the lava rushes up to reach the crater and erupt. There is the ash cloud, which while it isn’t part of the actual mountain, is still a large part of it. It can reach for many kilometres, and is deadly. It can make it hard to breathe, block out the sun, and make it even more dangerous to be around an erupting volcano. Another part is the conduit, which is at the very heart of the mountain, where material goes from underneath the surface. That is where the magma reservoir is located.

The difference between lava and magma isn’t that much. Magma is molten rock that is stored underneath the earth's surface, while lava is just molten rock that has managed to reach the surface and escape from a volcano's crater vent or throat. Magma is in the upper mantle, and only becomes lava when it reaches the surface and erupts from a volcano. Lava can either erupt from a volcano violently, and with a lot of force, or calmly, just slowly flowing out of the crater. However, both of these are extremely dangerous, with lava above earth burning many things it touches, and magma below earth, making it hot and hard to reach the core.

A volcano would normally erupt because magma has pushed itself up to the surface. Magma is lighter than rock, so it floats up to the planet surface. Any watery magma flows out of vents and becomes lava. If there is any really thick magma, then it can stop gas bubbles from escaping, which makes a lot of pressure. If there is too much pressure, then the volcano will erupt, normally violently, but occasionally calmly, and cause a lot of destruction.

That is a volcano, a force of nature that is powerful, and can cause a lot of devastation. It has three parts of a life cycle, Active, Dormant, and Extinct. It’s structure is unique, and different to normal mountains. The difference between lava and magma is mostly defined by where they are, and a volcano erupts because of too much pressure. I hope you have learned something useful today, and I hope to inform you of anything else that i may write about.

100WC#5

I wander through the snow, wondering how long it will take me to finally reach my end destination, when a glint of silvery metal catches my eye. i lift my snout up, and smell fresh human meat to eat. i wander towards my delicious prey, but as i near, it notices me, and goes to the opposite side of the glinting metal. i see it reach into the pocket of its clothing, and pull out a piece of metal, and holds it up to it's head. i try to climb over the large piece of metal. sadly, the meat leaves.

100 WC #4

clap clap clap clap clap i hear as the curtains fall. As one we wait until the curtains rise again, and then bow deeply for our loving audience. we quickly walk off stage and then the elephant begins his speech. we had just performed at the World Wide animals performance. we were a circus from tasmania. our leader was a tasmanian devil. he rode a motorbike on a wire suspended 20 metres above the ground. I performed as a fire breather/swallower, and could down bottles of gasoline and dump a lit match down my throat, and still miraculously survive.

100WC #3

"RUN!" I yell as I dash away from the ancient temple. For weeks we had searched for the Lost temple of Gold. we had entered it, and heard viola playing, and not realised that they were playing the song of our doom. we ventured past arrow shooting walls, pits full of deadly orange lava, and deadly spikes smashing towards you from the ground. we finally entered the,main chamber, took the Golden Idol, and ran. however, we triggered a massive earthquake that destroyed the only exit out. we found another way out, but then a giant snake chased after us

100 WC #2

Hello little hero, I hear as I enter the house. I should have run then. I really should have. But I stayed, and adventured forwards. Where are you going, the voice says again. I ignore it, but then I hear it laugh. You really shouldn't go that way, it said in it's evil, inquiring way. I creep up the stairs, but on the ninth step, I fall straight through it. I fall into a basement, and hear The Voice once more. It laughs, and says that I am only making its job easier. That's when I knew I should run.

"Woof Woof!  I yap as I chase the stick. It lands with a splash in the river, and I'm left feeling lonely and sad. Oh well. At least my owner gets to see such a great view! I Rush back to them, and grab their shirt with my mouth, trying to pull them to the river. They laugh and follow me to the bank, smiling as they see the view. They sit down dangling their legs into the water below, and find another stick for me to gnaw peacefully on. I take it, and lie down beside them, sighing happily

Hitlers History.

Hitler


Hitler is a very famous person in history, but not for a good reason.
He is famous for the fact that he started WWII.
but before we get into that, let's get into his childhood.
Hitler was born in 1889 in a small town in Austria-Hungary.
The town's name was Braunau Am Inn.
He was originally named Adolphus Hitler, but renamed himself Adolf Hitler later on.
His father was Alois Shicklgruber, but eventually changed his name to Alois Hitler.
His father had two wives. His first wife was Anna Glasl, and then Franziska Matzelberger.
Because the church wouldn’t allow divorce, he had to wait until his first wife was dead to marry his second.
He then got married a third time, but I’m not going to go into the details.
He then had three more children, but they all died. Finally, he had Adolf Hitler.
Adolfs father was very angry and took it out on his oldest son, Alois Jr.
Adolfs 6 year old brother died when he was 10, which changed him.
Hitler ended up dropping out of school when he was 16, and spent most of his time in the opera.
He tried to get into art school but failed, and when his mother finally died, went back to vienna looking
for a job in art. When that failed, he was just living in the streets. He left Vienna to escape joining the army,
but was then enlisted in Munich anyway. He was given a purpose in life in the war.
He was injured twice, and when recovering from the second, he learned of Germany's surrender.
They had to pay 800 billion dollars to the allies, and lose a lot of soldiers. 

After WWI he decided to become an informant to the army.
He was given a job to infiltrate a party that was putting pressure on the current government,
but when he went to the meeting, he actually joined it instead.
He renamed it the Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei
( or the Nazis for short) He then undid the treaty of Versailles, by the time there was another
election, the Nazis still weren’t very popular. Finally, in the 1932 elections, they won.
Hitler tried to run for president, but lost to a WWI general. He became a chancellor instead.
One night when he was chancellor, he had most of the SA(his group) rounded up and killed
so he could keep the german army. This happened in the Night Of The Long Knives.
He changed the standard greeting to Heil Hitler, and you would be sent to a concentration
camp if you didn’t oblige. He then eventually started WWII. He was winning until the very end.
Then, finally, he killed himself. His health, mentally and physically, was deteriorating fast.
He shot himself, and poisoned his wife and dog. 


That is Adolf Hitler, a man who started out good, but ended up being evil. 

My Final Post?

I competed in 4 of the challenges, and thought that they were all pretty fun.
I received about 12 comments, but i accidentally deleted some of those posts :)
The Earth Day post i did was the most popular, with 3 comments.
I enjoyed wrtiting about Climate change the most, because it was an interesting topic.
i might keep posting, but i don't feel very into it. maybe next year we'll find out!

Climate Change, and it's affect on Planet Earth

Climate change.

Climate change is a lot of different things. Some NASA scientists have been watching earth's temperature, and have noticed that it is warming, and most of the highest records have been in the past 20 years. There are a lot of ways to identify climate change. For example, the sea levels are rising, and putting some small flat islands under the ocean. It also means that glaciers, and ice in antarctica and the arctic are melting, which is making creatures in that area lose their home, which is another thing that climate change is doing. In the ocean, creatures are moving further south than they normally would, because it is getting to hot for them. And, while this may not seem that big of a change, it is causing flowers and trees to grow and bloom later than normal.

How World War I Was Started.

How WWI started. 

WWI was started when Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated. To start with, the assassins failed. You would think that Ferdinand would go into hiding. But instead, he goes to the hospital where the injured officers are. But, the driver makes a wrong turn when going there, and by sheer coincidence, he ends up by one of the assassins. Who shoots him. And starts the war known as World War I. Austria-Hungary are extremely annoyed about this, and are sure that the Serbian government has something to do with it, which they may have. So they send Serbia a list with impossible demands, and when Serbia refuses, Austria declares war on Serbia, and teams up with Germany. Russia is friends with Serbia, and also friends with France, who is kind of friends with britain. But Britain doesn’t join in at first, which is great for germany. They know that because Russia is so big, it will take them a long time for them to prepare for war, so they plan on sending all their troops to France, and then invading Russia once France is taken. The only problem is that France had heaps of forts bordering germany. So Germany decided it would be a good idea to go through Belgium and flank the french instead. But that didn’t happen. Germany was stuck in battles with Belgium, while Britain sent through troops to help france. Now, this is getting into the battling, so I won’t say anymore. I hope you have enjoyed reading this and learned something from this piece of writing.

Sense Poem

The storm is as loud as a marching band, playing as though it depended on their lives.
The lightning is as bright as the sun as it streaks down to the earth, causing chaos.
The rain is as cold as ice on your neck.
You can almost taste the ozone as lightning strikes, even closer to you. 
It is cold and depressing, even when you get inside. 

All you can see are the grey clouds, and occasionally lightning strikes through the hazy rain.

Recount of Swimming sports. 



Splash! I hear people diving into the water, powering their way through the water.

When that finishes I feel nervous as I step up to the water.

I stare at the crowd, watching them, mostly Rata, and see if they are watching.

They are, and that makes me more nervous. I listen closely to Miss Taylor’s voice.

I hear the whistle and step up. “Take your marks!” And then I hear the clapper go.

I into the water and speed my way to the end, ignoring the freezing cold I feel.

While I kick and windmill with my arms, I see others far ahead of me.

I speed up desperately, and then tumble turn and power my way down the end.

When I finally finish, I come 4th place. So close. When I finish

I hop out of the pool and head back to Rata house.

Ransom letter to the farmer.

This Is a piece of ransom writing I created last year. Enjoy!



Letter to the farmer from the velociraptors.

Dear farmer,
You are a grand farmer and try to help us all, but don’t pay as much attention to us as you could. We are writing to you to tell you that we have the typewriter. Us velociraptors need food and shelter. We need about 30 hectares of land for us to hunt, and a nest very well hidden, perhaps behind a waterfall. As soon you agree to this we will send over the compsognathus with. 
We will be going on strike and not bringing you anymore of our prey for you to sell until you give us this. We will provide you with half the prey we capture, so long as you are able to comply with this. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. As long as you are able to do this we will also stop hunting all your animals on you farm. If you fail to comply with any of these demands, you will be chased throughout the farm by us and then ripped up and eaten.


Sincerely,
The Velociraptors.

This is a pick a path that i made last year with a few of my friends. have fun reading and please don't change it.
