Hope in Christchurch

This week would be the 6 month since the dreadful earthquake in Christchurch (New Zealand). The earthquake was more than 7 magnitude which killed 181 people and injured so many and destroyed so many buildings including the citys iconic Catholic Church of the Blessed Sacrement as well as Christchurch's cathedral. The city is slowly rebuilding from the earthquake but another reason why this was so terrible a earthquake the was around the same magnitude hit the city a couple weeks before.

Right now the city is not fully completed to how it was before the earthquake. The main thing in the city now is to Rebuild what was destroyed I agree but what I say is the city needs is Hope because people were building the city when another earthquake hit and they don't want that to ever happen again. For being a New Zealander I was worried about the city even though I had no family members there. I didn't want anything to go wrong ever in New Zealand but then a few months ago there was a tornado in Auckland New Zealand, and thats where I am from, and I was hoping so much my family there was okay luckily they were okay and only one man died.

In Christchurch still they are building a lot better buildings so if there will ever be another disaster in Christchurch they will be ready for building stronger buildings and now they Hope that no other disasters will come and I Hope no other disasters will happen to the country.

Hope is also important in many countries because there has been many problems there was a horrible earth quake in Japan, people in africa are starving and people hope that

they will get what they need. But since people Hoped and cared for people in Japan and they got what they needed and Africa people care they are getting some food some water and shelter and being cared for but that is not enough I Hope that they will get more then they have right now.

VICTORY IS ALWAYS POSSIBLE FOR THE PERSON WHO REFUSES TO STOP FIGHTING- Napolen Hill

This I believe

1st Draft
I believe that everyone needs the right amount of protection

Just yesterday I was mountain biking on these jumps and there was no protection from falling down the hill. So that’s what happened to me I fell of my bike and went tumbling down the hill and I sprained my ankle. Then straight after words someone was biking on a skate park fell of and hurt himself like me. But there was no protection of falling down the hill and the kid falling down the ramp. There needs to be protection.

A few months a go I was walking home with my friend and then a guy jumped off the motor bike and took my bag and drove away there was nothing I could of done to keep my bag because I had no protection. Not only I need protection but also everyone needs protection. There are being a lot of floods around the world and their people aren’t being protected enough that there dieing . No one is helping them. They need to be protected.

Right now in Iran, Iraq, Pakistan and a lot more countries in the Middle East have been dying or suffering a lot of pain from not being protected. Last month I was watching the news in New Zealand and so many people are dying or losing there legs with a lot of bombs that are still explosive. But they are being protected and taken care of with New Zealanders that are defusing the bombs. All those people are suffering a lot of pain with no protection but they need it. Were lucky to have protection around school and apartments with security guards and we have alarms if anyone is breaking in and also a lot of people have dogs that will protect us. Were lucky to be protected.

Governments aren’t the only ones that need protection with all the special people. Yes we need them but we also need others if only every government gives everyone just a little bit of protection the people will be thankful. There wouldn’t be as much killing. All we need is a little bit of protection then the world will be a better place for everyone. Just a little bit of protection can change a lot even with war. Japan will have less people dying if the had protection just like the Americans have protection that Japan don’t have. Just a little bit of protection can change a whole lot with without protection.

Everyone needs just a little, just enough but not to much protection. If everyone had a lot of protection there will be no changes to the world with no one dying the world will only change when people die if the get sick or die of old age. There will be little changes and also there will be only a little bit of police men a little bit of fire men and only a few hospitals like only three per city. Without them they wont be somebodies they will only be nobodies because they have no one to save. We need them and they need us for us to be protected and for them to be protected.

Protection is all we need its what everybody needs. We don’t need to only protect us but also need to protect others. We don’t only need to protect us and to protect others we need to protect the place that we are. Protection is what everyone needs even animals and nature lots of things need protection. If we work together we can make everyone feel safe even if they don’t know you and you don’t know them you can just do a little thing to protect them then they can believe that you will have protected them and you can do it again if you have to. I need to be protected, He needs to be protected, She needs to be protected, We need to be protected, They need to be protected, The animals need to be protected, Nature needs to be protected, We all need to be protected.

I believe everyone needs protection
I believe that everyone needs protection because without there will be no more human race. With all the disasters going around the world such as explosions natural disasters earthquakes or even the world coming to its end. We need the protection to be protected from all these disasters that may or may not occur. Hopefully the disasters in the future may not be as big as they sound. There will be earth quakes and explosions in the future and disasters in the future but hopefully there just small ones. But about the saying about the world coming to an end sometime lets hope its not true.

Protection for me. I need protection, I have had things happen to me that evolves around me being protected. When I was mountain biking towards the beginning of the school year I fell of a edge of the hill and sprained my ankle I was lucky nothing worse with my bike getting stuck in the grass and also not breaking a bone. The way I fell was jumping on small ramps but the thing is there was nothing to stop you from falling. If there was some little protection like a barrier I wouldn't of fallen.
Protection for my family. They need Protection, a couple years ago at night my mum heard a motor bike come up the street but not back down and we had left our shows outside because that's what we did and in the mourning some of our shoes were missing only some of my older Brother and dad because I was only small. I was told that monkeys stole our shoes overnight and I thought that was true until a few months ago my mum was talking to a close friend of ours who doesn't live here and my mum said that someone had climbed our gate and stolen some of our shoes. Then later on that year we bought a dog I thought it was for a pet reason and its never happened since.

Protection for everyone. Everyone needs the protection from not only people doing something to them but what is happening to earth. People do many things that can cause problems to people and earth. Everyone should have the protection from Earths natural causes that can get really bad then people think. But in some countries there prepared for stuff such as earth quakes and tornadoes and hurricane’s. They have buildings that are strong enough for these things but else where there is a lot of disasters they don't have the protection they need to survive the disasters just yesterday there was a tornado in Auckland, New Zealand, and only one person died because New Zealand know what to do when there is a problem. But when there was a Earth Quake in Haiti a while ago Haiti is a poor country not that type of country that does not have strong buildings that will not fall over so it creates a bad country that takes ages to fix.

Everyone in the world needs the protection that everyone else has If this happens someday people will be would have spoken and they would have been heard so If people get the right amount of Protection people will have something in a lot of people.

My Ten Objects

My Objects aren’t only Objects to me they remind me of memories I have had they might not be that object but they remind me of them. England and New Zealand jersey a picture of Frank Lampard drawing a picture of Chelsea winning the premier league in 2005/06 my dog molly football boots my dog Max me and my brothers and sister and a I love NZ hat. these aren’t objects these are my memories.
England Jersey
I chose this object because I like England and I’m half English and also I love playing Football. Another reason why I chose this shirt is because it has so many memories by just looking at it even though that it might not have many memories but it reminds me of memories it reminds of me of England I haven’t been there for ages as a family but I have been there with my dad Because my Nanny was sick that brought sadness to me from looking at that shirt because sadly she passed away and also with that shirt I fell of my bike down a hill and sprained my ankle. From that this shirt reminds me of sadness thats why I chose this shirt.

A Picture of Frank Lampard
I chose this object because I love Chelsea and Frank Lampard is my favorite player and I hope to grow up and just play like him. Another reason why I chose this picture is because Lampard is my idol he is good at Football he is from England he plays for my favorite team (Chelsea). Also he is one of the best Midfielders in the world. He is the best for me I don’t know if he is for others but he is for me. Frank Lampard is the reason why I chose this object he is my idol and I hope one day I can just be like him.

A Drawing of Me Playing Football
I chose this object because I like playing football and that’s a picture of me showing that I like to play Football. The reason I chose this object is because I love playing football its my life. This shows that I love football and anyone can football but you just cant prove it from a drawing. You have to prove on the field and this drawing reminds me you just can’t beleve it you have to do it.

Chelsea Winning the Premier league in 2005/06
I love Chelsea because their the best not only that was the last time they won the premier league since last season they have won other trophies showing that they are the best. Chelsea from winning the Premier league since I have been interested in football Chelsea has won the premier league twice but they have won many other trophies I have seen them play and they outstanding so that's why I chose this object.

My Dog Molly
I love my Dog Molly the reason I chose this object is because I used to be afraid of dogs but since we have had her I’m not afraid of dogs because she has shown me to face your fears. Molly has not only helped me but helped others are maids have been scared but they are becoming less scared like me but lets go off subject. Molly is so nice so friendly energetic playful molly is so many things I just can’t say them all we love molly and she loves us.

My Football Boots The reason i chose this object is because I love Football and these are the new boots and also I was watching the world cup over the summer and almost everybody was wearing those boots. Also they remind me from my favorite New Zealand player that wore these boots. Also New Zealand were the only team that didn’t lose a game in the world cup.

New Zealand Football Jersey
The reason I chose this object is because I’m another half Kiwi and I love Football and I have lived on New Zealand for 2 1/2 years and they have my favorite striker Shane Smeltz and they were the only team in the world cup that didn’t lose a game. I got this jersey in New Zealand for Christmas and its the black one not the white one I almost got the white one but it cost 150 New Zealand dollars so it was to much because that’s about 325 Rm so I didn’t get t but I almost did and I might go back to New Zealand at Christmas and I hope to get it then. Another reason I couldn’t get it is because the reason it was that much because the world cup had just finished. So hopefully it will be cheaper at Christmas so the I will have both.

My Dog Max
I love my dog Max he is so fun to play with and he can be annoying and chew up our stuff but me and my family still love him even though he can be strange we still love him the just the way he is from getting knocked over being pushed around and jumped on we know he loves us to. Max is so fun and full of joy he will jump on you chew up your favorite shoes but he will protect you. Just the other day I was walking in when my freind came with me to see him he barked at him to protect me but he was doing it to the wrong person but I can trust him and write while right now as I’m writing he is sitting at my feet I know he can protect me and my family and my friends I love max and he loves me.

Me and My Brothers and Sister
The reason I chose this object because it reminds me of when I didn’t fight with my older brother and it also reminds me that how how lucky i am for having such a nice and cute twin little brother and sister. Another reason why I chose this object is because over the years we have all we have all changed I haven’t changed that much but my older brother has changed he does a lot of other stuff like sports size height of course my younger brother and sister aren’t as cute but they are still family same with my mum and my dad.

I love NZ hat
I chose this object because I love New Zealand and I wish this school and everybody who works hear or learning here should have this school moved to New Zealand because its my favorite place in the world and I have had so much memories there. I love New Zealand hat I chose this because New Zealand because its the best place in the world. Also its where I was born and lived there for three years and those first few years I only remember a little but it is still home but I I have been there more then 15 times since I have left and I see m family a lot on skype. From just that brings a lot of stuff to me and I hope it will still.

Title Quote

“The world needs heroes and it's better they be harmless men like me than villains like Hitler.”

Albert Einstein quotes The reason why i chose this quote is because albert einstein ins making a point he is a hero but he also is saying someone who is not a hero like hitler. Einstien is from Germany so thats a good thing he is not making fun of somenone elses country instead he is making fun of a villin from his hero Hitler is not a hero he tryed to take over the world as for other countries like England and America they are heroes they helped others to destroy him thats what is why I chose this Quote because it makes sence of who are heroes and who are not.

I Beleive In Compliments.

The Last time I had a compliment was yesterday I had a lot of compliments hoping my ankle and would get better soon and also in P.E everyone was clapping and saying good job for me in when I did the obstacle course.

That made me feel good because they were caring about me.

For giving somebody a compliment happens everyday no matter what there doing but for example if it was basketball I would nice shot just like that.

I dont know how they feel but I think they would fell good because somethinks that there good or getting better.

I watched the video and it shows that those guys like giving compliments and those people like to get compliments a lot of people like and also think there awesome them guys giv compliments a lot because a lot of people have bad days and they help them and cheers them up.

Matt Harding

Matt is really lucky to travel to a lot of places even luckyer then us. So he makes videos of him dancing. Showing that everyone can have fun and join just for dancing shows a lot to some people and makes them feel happy just dancing can make a smile on a persons face showing that they can have fun.

The White Mountains

What I've read so far Will is selfish and adventures and steals stuff

like watches.

I think I'm like Will because I like to go on adventures and try stuff new.

But I am not selfish like him and steals stuff that belong to others I think if I steal

this what will happen to them and don't take it because he just takes it and run.

With adventures I will try stuff like what ever it is only if doesn't include snakes or wild animals then I will do it.

So that is what I think of me like Will

Its a new year 2009 is long gone. So now to start with a fresh mind for 2010. I cant wait till halfway through the year it gets so interesting. Happy new year.

first I would like to improve on my writing skills. Like neatness and cursive. because my hand writing is really messy and hard to read so I want to try get really neat. also my writing is really horrible so I want to learn how to do really good cursive.

second I would like to improve my reading. I'm really horrible at choosing books. Also I cant just sit down and have a little read the only time I do read is in Humanities and Home Group also for class projects. Thats it I cant read for fun I only do because I have too. And the only books I really enjoy are books like Holes but i don't know any besides Holes. I just wish I can become a better reader.

Finally the last. I wish to improve is my running. I do like running and people may say I'm good but I don't think I am. So I hope I can be a better runner. I enjoy running. But I think I can improve if I run a lot more.
