My Swimming Assesment



YouTube Video


My swimming has improved because I focused on what I was doing and tried my hardest.
My next step in swimming is learning how to do a tumble turn and working on my freestyle so I can glide really fast above the water.

My Life Story

My Grandfathers Death

It was 2006 when it happened, but I remember it clear as day. I remember watching his closed eyelids and touching his cold hands. I remember watching him lay there on one stop, unmoving. My grandmother was crying on my mothers shoulder and my brother (Tahemaka) just standing there waiting for grandad to open his eyes. I was still very young so I wasn't quit sure what was going on so I asked dad "what happened to grandad?" and dad replied "he is in a better place."

Championship

3 years after my grandfathers death I was up and about playing netball. I played for Burnham and our coaches name was Sarah. Sarah trained us hard but there were no complaints from us because we wanted to win and we were going to try and make that happen. Finally the day of the big game had arrived. We were basically jumping around in our netball dresses. We were waiting for this for along time, for the finals. W played hard and a few people got injured (though all the players that got hurt were on the opposing team). Although we lost the finals we felt that we tried our best and in the end that's all that mattered, well other than the fact that we improved a lot.

Tower of Terror

It happened when I was 10 years old. W were in Australia, Brisbane or where ever Dream World is we were going on the Tower of Terror. I was scared as hell just watch ing the ride. Finally it was our turn so we hoped not are seats. I was prepared for anything except going backwards. When we started I was terrified because I totally thought that we were going to go forward but it turns out we were going to go backwards so it was a bit of a surprise to me. We just got faster and faster and faster. I was frightened to death because we just kept going up. When it was finally over I could fell the adrenalin rush up me, I had never felt like this before in my whole life, I felt like I could do anything.

Alone in the World

2013 is my first year alone without my brother. No brother to make fun of me. N brother to distract me. Just me myself and I. There is some things that I miss like how we can't play games together at school and how I can't challenge him. School life was really difficult for me because I always tried to be better than him at everything so I don't live in his shadows.  Always thought that we were gonna be in the same class so we can annoy one another and frustrate each other, but we get enough of that at home. This is my last year at primary and I intend to make the most of it with or without my brother.

The Amazing Life of Taleah

Kia ora my name is Taleah and I'm gonna tell you about my fantastic life.


I have one brother named Tahemaka. My mothers name is Gin and my fathers is Lino. I have a dog named Jandel and she is really cute.
My hobbies include playing sports and making music. I love to read and write. I like to watch cartoons and draw cartoons, I also love to bake.
I would have too say that my personality can change in an instant, one minute I am happy and talkative, then next I am quit and perfer to be left alone.
I was born in my old home by the Rolleston church and than I was brought to a hospital.
My brother is only a year older then I am, but he is better than me at everything.
I enjoy movies and books because they make me think of amazing adventures and an abnormal life from the same day to day routine I have going on now.
 I go to a school that's outside an army camp and we sometimes get to watch the NewZealand army band perform for our school.
I like to learn new things every day and that's why I am glad that I go to school because there I get to experience new things that I wouldn't get to see if I was homeschooled.
I'm part Samoan and part Maori and I'm proud of my split culture because it shows that I am different in my own way.

My car goal



My goal is to buy a book named "City of Bones".
The book will cost $19.80
I believe that this goal is achievable.
A realistic time frame for this is approximately 26 days or more.
This goal is as realistic as it could ever get so I believe it is easily within my reach.

Moon

Has many forms but can't change shapes

Cannot shine by itself with out the help of others

There are may but they keep their distances from each other

Lights up the midnight sky even in its darkest moments

Shines brighter than any star except the sun itself

Reflects off the ocean causing people to stare in awe
