Thinkboard Week 2

Holiday Recount

I woke up miserably knowing today was the first day of the holidays, quickly I opened the curtains to get a glimpse of my miserable life and all that was visible was rain. I just sat there sobbing about how I hated the holidays.

I’d stood up, wipe my tears and wrap my blanket around me like a sleeping gown and head toward the sitting room hoping a good cartoon would come on to ease the pain that sank into my heart. I would watch T.V for hours. I sure got sick of watching infomercials now and then but it never bothered me. Eventually I would make my way to the kitchen. I would boil the hot water to make me a coffee then grab bread to make toast. If I was lucky enough I would find spaghetti and cheese. Just enough to make a spaghetti grilled cheese sandwich. If I wasn’t full then I would head to the back to the kitchen to make another coffee and snuck some biscuits on the top shelf then walk back to the front.

I would sit down and watch Kung Fu Panda and Transformers Prime. I actually liked watching Fireman Sam, Chuggington even Dinosaur Train. After then I would sing along with the wiggles. “Ready, Steady, WIGGLE!” I’d sing. Once wiggles finished I would watch TheEdgeTV. If I got extremely bored I would sneak into my parents room. I would grab the phone then walk past the sitting room and into the front room. I would play songs on the piano and sing.

If that didn’t work out and the weather cleared out. I’d put my shoes on and put on my jumper then head outside. Most times the weather would be miserable like my soul but it never stopped me from having fun outside. I would stay outside for hours, playing with the ball and climbing up trees. If I got so humongous bored I would come back inside and lye on the bed for hours, If I got bored I’d sleep. If I would change anything about my holiday experience I would change lying on my bed and sleeping for hours. I thought to myself 2 more weeks.

I really didn’t enjoy my holidays. Thank God, Its over!!

Swimming Recount

I carefully run out of the changing room conscious about not falling onto the slippery ground. I looked like a human like octopus frantically waving my arms about in the air trying to keep my balance. I quickly jumped into the shower. It was like pouring lava on my body, the water was roasting hot. I sprinted out of the shower before I became a roasted chicken for the dogs and carefully jogged my way back to the others. I rested myself alongside my fellow classmates on a wooden bench beside the pool and patiently waited for the instructor to arrive.

Eventually she makes her way to us. We get split into two groups, the confident swimmers (advanced level) and the unconfident swimmers (the easy level). I was in the advanced level group which was group 1. We followed behind her to the pools. We lined ourselves on the edge of the pool with our legs kicking the warm water.

“Okay, everyone into the pool”she instructed. We quickly dipped ourselves into the water then lined up. I was first in line. I grabbed a board then got ready for more instructions. “Lets start with freestyle, try not to touch the ground.” she screams. I dipped my face into the water with my legs kicking wildly. I turned my head sideways gasping for air. Water then begin filling my stomach as I accidentally drank the water. I still swim my hardest. When I reach to the end of the pools, I thought to myself this was going to be a hard 30-minutes.

As the day goes to an end. We walked back to school with thunderous rain slamming into our faces and clothes. I’ve got to say, this was the perfect way to end this fine day.
