Matariki pic-collage of my learning.

This is my pic-collage that I have done to show my working.

I did do a slide but I think that this would be easier to view.

Awesome quotes.

These quotes force us to think about ourselves and question, what could I do better?


What could YOU do better?


 

The Power of Positivity! :)

Hello!

Today I'm going to be your awesome positivitest person, I don't know if that is a word but who cares!?

This is my guide on how to be positive!

Step one: go to bed early! Being positive might trier you out until it becomes habitual.

Step two: practice your genuine smile! When smiling, you have to be genuine for it to mean something!

Step three: say something nice to someone every day! This will make you and the other person feel good.

Step four: try not to think dirty thoughts; Yuck. I HATE what she's wearing. It makes her look fat.

Step five: do what makes YOU happy, not someone else.

Step six: do all of the above each day, and this will make you a very positive person.

Step seven: try to see the good in every single thing you do.  Find the speck of light amid the darkness.

I have chosen these quote because I think they have meaning and moral to those who choose to be POSITIVE!!! :)

I have chosen these quotes because I think that they will generate positive thinking. :)

 This is like this quote:  if plan A didn't work, don't worry. The alphabet has 25 more letters. Stay cool.

WPCA best experience writing.

My life so far has been dotted with the really fun things in life. Such as going to Australia.

WPCA has made those really fun things more often.

I LOVED ropes day, it was the best day of my life, and when I flew high into the sky on that beautiful day doing the flying kiwi, my feeling of happiness just exploded into the sky like a firework with me.

Me on the flying kiwi.

WPCA has opened up a bunch of new experiences for me and I have enjoyed the lot of them at  at least one point. Ropes day is my favourite by far because it pushed me to my limits until I broke through those limits. Breaking those limits has opened up a whole new world of possibilities, and now I look at the world seeing opportunities at every corner with new eyes.
Like the other day, I was looking at some straws, and now, I'm in the process of making a wind-chime with them, WPCA has made a little bit more creative I think, and that, is really, really good!

Cave Stream was another favourite.

The worst thing: going down in my thermals to check the water level, then have to come back up. Then having to walk over to the other side of the hill and walk all the way down to the entrance of the best cave of my life.
The best thing: walking into the cave and having the water com up to my cease in a FREEZING wave  of coldness. Also, seeing the formations that I thought you only find in an ice cave.

Hawdon hut was okay, the boulder hopping was my favourite part aside from finishing.
I also felt very special that I actually got to sit next to you, William, on the way there and back!
And that photo I got of you standing next to me is super special.

I can not wait until the Lake Daniel night tramp, I bet that that is going to be super fun! :)




Thank you WPCA for for opening a whole new world for me in your journey taking very one out of their comfort zone, you certainly made bash through the walls of my comfort zone and into the unknown!

Good luck and I hope you continue doing WPCA for a long, long time. :)



Does anyone have any feed back for me before I email this to William Pike?

Ropes Day.

Pre-Ropes Day Jitters

Ropes day made me feel excited, anxious and happy all in one go.
I thought I knew what the day would bring.



I was wrong.

Giant's Ladder

It was HUGE!!!  It was eleven rungs tall with each rung getting wider and wider apart until you couldn't reach the next one.  The very top was about 20 metres high but I didn't get any feeling of vertigo just extreme happiness and satisfaction when I conquered the ladder and reached the top.  It felt awesome to be so high and it felt fabulous to have the support of my class mates!

Vertical Play Pen

There were five different stages of the vertical play pen.  The hardest one for me was the net, constantly swinging out putting me off balance, but I hooked my arm over and sat on that seat about twenty five metres high, with a huge feeling of satisfaction bubbling under the surface of my tired façade.

The Flying Kiwi

This is how the Flying Kiwi worked.  My group pulled on a rope in one direction while I ran in the opposite direction attached to the other end of the rope.  Due to the laws of physics (and the fact that the pulley was way above my head) their efforts resulted in me flying like a bird without a care in the world!  It felt amazing to be flying so high above the ground.  It was the highlight of my day.  I will never forget that feeling of immense happiness.

Feelings after

Ecstatic.

I don't know how to describe the feeling of happiness, pride, satisfaction and perseverance all rolled into one. 

I was one extremely happy girl when I went home that wonderful day.


I will never forget that day.
