Writing: Subterranean Wasteland



This week We've picked out a key and writing what this key would open.





Subterranean Wasteland




My Friends and I, Frank, were just a group of adventurers  were now biking to a near forest about half a mile away but it wasn’t fun... I was the person who had to pretty much carry everything, I asked why but they told me i had to my part of the work, which annoyed me.



Once we were there we pulled out everything within the bags and started to make our camp,

We were talking about how great it is camping but I forgot what we did then… We  wandered

 around the forest with our flashlights looking for sticks to make our campfire where I then found key, I asked my friends and assumed what it might unlock, so we wandered around the forest more. I gave up after minutes and walked back to finding more stick to make a campfire, i’ve picked up just enough sticks to make the campfire, I lit a piece of paper and threw it slipping through the sticks structure, it keeps burning until it’s catch the sticks on fire and burnt to a black charcoal colour. That’s when my friends came back to tell me about a huge underground wasteland covered by mist that probably stretches more than the eye could see. It sounded interesting and insisted we uncover the things it holds.



I follow my friends to where they found they underground wasteland, but it wasn’t there... They said it was here and looked for it everywhere, I was very disappointed and too good to be true to explore a vast, abandoned place, People would have already found it probably in the daytime.

But that all changed when I saw my friends getting knocked out one by one before i was knocked unconscious. Once I woke up I was somewhere else it wasn’t the forest but like the subterranean wasteland my friends described but it actually was full of objects. Before I saw my friends, there was a key beside me and only me, I picked it up and put in my pocket. I then proceeded to wake up the others by making big amounts of noise near their ears. They all regained conscious were all probably processing what just happened, minutes later Jerry insisted that we explore the place to find out how we can get out.



We split into teams and went different directions, we used tape we found earlier so we couldn’t get lost. While exploring the vast land, my team found a car covered by a thick layer of dust which points out that it hasn’t been touched for years. It was pretty big so my team help  me clean the car to check if anything is inside, it had enough seats to fit everyone I remembered that I had a key in my pockets so I picked it up and tried to use it, It worked! The door opened I came in to find the car had no fuel, i asked if they could find any fuel and in no time they came back with a lot of fuel, one of our friends said he will drive.



We followed the tape back to the spot to find everyone there, everyone there was filled with relief that there was a car, the other team told us that there was a ramp and they’ll have to follow the other colored tape. The other teams didn’t find anything interesting. We were then on the tape trail to go escape this place. We went through the maze of rubble and objects to the ramp. Our friend didn’t hesitate to go on the ramp. Once we were up the ramp we could see our camp and the sun shining down, we knew we were back to safety and celebrated. We left the car because we didn’t want to get arrested of theft and packed our camp in the bags.

(I had to still carry most of the bags though) We found our bikes and biked back to our houses.





 I was in my house where i was thinking that I should really get some rest.



what I enjoyed: writing my own story of a key.

What I should do next time: actually write more about the key

Stuff: Respect

How you should show respect



Mouth
Hands
Thoughts
Think before you say something
Keep your hands to yourself and never touch them without permission
Keep your thoughts to yourself and the rights of others
Never say feral words
(never say things that should not be used and expected from you)
never touch them without permission
Admire what they have achieved
Don’t start talking when someone is trying to tell you something.
Don’t verbally hurt the person you are speaking to
No one wants to hear bad thoughts of others, especially themselves.

we are doing thing because of the actions of our class this week...

Reading: Matariki

This week we've been independently working on Matariki
It includes what Matariki is and how it is celebrated.

Writing: Ballad

we've been working on our ballads for writing the past week,
this is my ballad, it's like a poem.

 Ballad 
 Start, the game had now started
 Right of the bat they were being outsmarted
 They had to find some other way
 For it was a big moment for them today
 Many minutes have already passed
It looked like they were having a blast


Time was slipping through their fingers
 Knowing of that fact the enemy lingers
 They had to protect the objectives
For the enemy had other perspectives


 What would be able to oppose the threat
But to spread out armed with their trusty bayonet
They couldn’t think of a way with their limited amount of time
 Wouldn’t be able to counter they enemies soon perfect crime


 Showing despair yet though they didn’t care
Knowing of a lost that they had to bare
But somehow the enemy team had ran out of time
 Just a seconds away before they heard the bells chime


 Disappointed by people who wanted to wait
 They should’ve gone earlier, too little to late
Now They’ve won, they had acquired victory
 This would’ve gone down in gaming history

what I've enjoyed: writing this ballad and spending most of my time at home making it
what I found difficult:
