My Reflection

    Today my reading group had been called to meet up in the my space.Once we all arrived we all received a sheet that was written I hear, I think and I wonder.At first when I saw the sheet I had a clue
on what we would be doing and I also remembered that we did the exact same thing last year with Mrs Dilner.

   Once we received the sheets we were told to glue them in our iDevelop book so once I had finished glueing my sheet in we had started.Mrs Pearson explained what we were supposed to do she said that we were suppose to infer clues and texts from a song so she played the song and we started.As I was listening to the song i heard this verse that went something like my life is on the purpose it it worth it and i thought, is life worth it ? and can i make it worth it.

After all of that Mrs Pearson said to finish it up and hand it in but apart form all of that i liked the fact that we had to infer from that song. i felt that that song had some really inspiring messages and sometimes when we're singing we don't even realise that.

A Day At The Temple



                                                       
💚
Loved it!
                          
 Today i went to the temple with my whole school i had an amazing time.I did't just have an amazing time but i got to experience and explore the arts and culture of the Chinese religion of the Buddha. One thing that i really enjoyed was bathing the Buddha and making a wish after bathing the Buddha.

      My wish was to have strength and wisdom.We also had 2 leaders of our group i was in group 2 and my leaders were Aditiya and Zavier. Our leaders demonstrated how to make a wish on the wishing bell. I think that our leaders were awesome i personally think that they did a great job at keeping us on track and demonstrating.

     Another thing that we learned about was the 3G and the 4G the 3G means 3G1:do good deeds 
                 3G2:think good thoughts 
                          3G3:say good words 
next is the 4G,
                 4G1: giving joy
                 4G2:convenience  
                 4G3:confidence 
                 4G4:giving hope 
As i look back and reflect on my experience at the Fo Guang Shan Temple i can say that was a lot of fun and it was all for a good course.

My Trip To Fiji

It was fun preparing for the trip to Fiji. The packing and the thoughts of being back with my friends and relatives was very exciting. We packed so much stuff like clothes, food stuff, and beddings for the victims of the hurricane Winston.

Upon arrival we realise that the heat was too overwhelming and finding my mum too emotional changed dried up all the excitement. 
It was nice meeting all my cousins and staying at my grandparents place for the first time was fun.

The first couple of days was spent shopping for the victims and packing up stuff in boxes and bags. We heard from people that victims were provided food rations from a lot of groups and government aids so my mum decided to donate washing detergents and toiletries as well as packets of cereal and biscuts from here. The best was that mum gave each family a bed sheet or a duvet cover. We were able to help 50 to 60 families and that was very very emotional for us all.

I have never felt so emotional and drained in my whole entire life before but it was all for a good cause.

A Beautiful Day

           A Beautiful Day


     There's not a cloud today
Just a sky of blue 
As the sun shines bright
It feels so new

As you walk down the street
You can see smiles from all around
It looks like everyone
Came to town

To enjoy the summer's day
And let time stand still
For a little while
Just until

                                            

The reason why I have written this poem is simple, i just thought that it was a beautiful day and that it should be appreciated.
