My Birthday

For my 11^th birthday I had a sleepover weekend with my two best friends.

We played Guitar Hero. It was my first time playing it and it took me a while to get used to it, but it’s a really cool game and we had a lot of fun. My friend Dillan plays it a lot so he’s really good at it.

After that we had Singstar battles. We took turns singing two at a time and at the end of the song the loser of the battle had to take a dare out of the bowl and do it. Some of them were really funny.

Faith had to cry like a baby, and do the splits, and pretend to be a fish.

Dillan had to lick his own foot, and lick the carpet.

Jason had to try and put his feet behind his head.

Dad had to finish every sentence with “because I love you” for 30 minutes.

Shane had to dance like a ballerina.

I had to walk into a wall.

Mum didn’t have to do any dares because no one beat her!

My birthday was a lot of fun, and I got some really cool presents. I got a new cellphone from Mum and Dad and Uncle Aaron bought me a new hockey stick. Dillan gave me a joke book and a Killzone game for PS2. I also got $45 in birthday money from Grandad, Aunty Karla, Jason, and Nana & Pete.

Our Trip to Christchurch

We went to Christchurch for Aunty Karla and Uncle Iain’s wedding and I had loads of fun doing fun as stuff like how I got to ride Uncle Charlie’s scooter round and round Waiau. I liked how I went to Hamner Springs and went diving with Shane but it sucked how the sulphur pools stunk the whole place out. It was funny when I hopped in them and gagged and gagged until I had to hop out. I also liked the car rides because we played fun games.

Surf to City - Neihana Writes

“5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Go! Have a nice bike with Surf to City!”

I biked in a good pace through the beach, we eventually hit road. I sped flat out, like I was being chased by cops. My brother and I both swerved around a corner. 10km to go! We stopped at a water stand to drink and spray water on us.

 We got stuck behind this Chinese kid, but he got tired and stopped. But when we turned the corner he was there and he stopped again! And when we turned another corner he was there and he needed to stop again!

I eventually made it and it was a great experience.
