This is now my favourite movie ahead of Battle Las Angeles and MIB3. When I saw it, I couldn't stop laughing because it was so funny. It included the minions which are soooo cute although not always very smart.
Here is a quote from the movie that I found quite funny: 'May I be the first to say... ew!"
I enjoyed this movie because this movie because it was funny, especially when the minions did stupid things like flying each other like kites from moving cars.

Auckland
A couple of weeks ago, I went to Auckland with my family. It was the day after the big storm, that meant two things: if I wasn't going I wouldn't have gone to school anyway, and a building near the runway fell down in due to the storm, so our flight got delayed because there was debris on the runway. When we got to the airport, we had breakfast in the Mojo lounge. It was the best breakfast I've ever had.
After a few hours, we finally got on our plane, but it was too windy to open the cargo door, so our luggage had to fly up on the next flight. The next flight was the next morning, so we had to buy PJ's, tooth brushes, etc. Unfortunately, it was the one day Farmers wasn't having a sale.
One night, we went out to an amazing Italian restaurant where the portions are quite big, even if you order off the childrens' menu. I had the spaghetti bolognese, it was very nice.
When we were at the airport to catch our flight home, we finally got our luggage, but Dad had to check it in again. I got a lot of my assignment done at the airport when we were waiting for our flight which was delayed 45 minutes.
I really enjoyed going to Auckland despite the luggage issue, and I hope you enjoyed reading about it.

The Storm of the Decade
We were away from school last Friday due to a severe storm that forced people indoors and cut power to lots of homes. The following is a piece of writing created from that motivation:
On Thursday 20th June there was a storm. A terrible storm that many people compared to the Wahine disaster of the year 1968.
More than 25,000 houses in the Wellington region lost their power, and the total cost to repair all of the damage will easily be more than $1,000,000.00. The roofs were blown off many houses and some houses were completely demolished. At Wellington Airport, many flights were delayed due to debris on the runway and Air New Zealand cancelled most of their flights.
In Eastbourne, some boulders came out from under the the train tracks, making them unusable. Also, part of the beach wall in Petone collapsed.
This storm has truly taken the title of storm of the decade and maybe even storm of the century. Good luck to all of the workers that are fixing the damage and cleaning up the gigantic mess.

Tech
For the first six days of every term, not including Wednesdays, my class goes to Hutt Intermediate to do technology. Last term, I did cooking and this term, I did sewing. When I was doing sewing this term, I made a scarf and I barely finished it in the time we had. When I did cooking last term, we made something different every day. I enjoyed making chocolate pudding the most. Both things were a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to doing hard tech next term.
My maths focus
For maths at the moment, I've been focussing on multiplication and division. I've been learning and revising strategies to make equations easier to solve. These strategies are mostly things like place value partitioning (PVP), doubling and halving, tripling and thirding, etc. Lots of the multiplying and dividing I'm doing includes decimals.
