What Does Empathy Mean to You

What Does Empathy Mean To Me?

Empathy mean’s put yourself in there shoes. Meaning If they need a mate go over and add them in. Feeling, Thoughts, Attitude.
I have shown Empathy to my brother Noah when he felt upset because Jordan punched him hard. So I went to see if he was alright. I have Empathy because when someone is sad in my family I go over and see if they are alright.

Holiday Adventure South Island

There was 16 of us at Kaiteriteri and that was a lot of people to feed for the parents. The three families and a couple of friends hung out out like we were a huge youth group - well, that's what a lot of people said. My favourite thing I did that day was got to know the people I Didn't know. What a day playing volleyball and running around . That night we ate something that involved food. The drink that we had was homemade ginger and lemon. The two other families we hung out with were the Placid's and Allen's.

Freezing my guts off because it was very cold so we put on a warm jumper and pants and then I felt so cosy. After we got cosy and warm we went through the bushes to find glow worms. After we went to the beach for New Years Eve were a lot of people were at and looked up in the sky and there was fireworks. Then these girls came over to say "Happy New Year's"!!!!! They were good friends with the Placid's and Allen's but we didn't know them.

We also lit up sparklers and it was fun. But some good nights have to end and then headed to camp and got in our Pajamas on and then T,T,B which means Teeth, Toilet, Bed and then got into our tents which we prayed in and slept in roasty toasty sleeping bags. ThenI wondered what we will do tomorrow. Can't wait for the morning thing to do.

Lets wait and see what tomorrow morning brings us.

Holiday Adventure Ferry

Something that rides on top of the ocean is a ferry and it is a boat that takes you from one place to the other. We were in Wellington and know we are heading to Picton in the South Island. Five other brilliant people are with me. That's my family. This is the first time going for a three hour boat ride. While we headed to the South Island we were watching The Incredibles and eating hot chips and drinking ginger beer. My mum and dad were tiered so they went to sleep. It wasn't the best ride because we left at 2.00am on the 31st of december.

We went in and out of the ferry, it was quite cold outside on the deck so we brought blankets. It was hard for us to see Wellington. Once we left the North Island there was a black island on one side and on the other were city lights. It would've been hard for the captain to see were he is going but he has a gps. I have not been on a ferry this long and it was a cool three hours to get to Kaiteriteri. I have not been to Kaiteriteri before and neither has my family. We were going to see some friends there.

Arriving to the South Island everyone on the ferry had to get in there cars and then we had to drive for another three hours. So then I took a sleep and so did my brothers and it only felt like 15 minutes and one of our friends Slade woke me up and then we played volleyball. I also learn't how to spike it over the net.
 
Can't wait for dinner.

Holiday Adventure 2013

28th of december leaving to head to hamilton for the start of the Samuels family adventure. Hamilton what a lovely and kind people,  it was 7.00 at night so we went  hadn't had dinner yet so we all agreed to go to Carls Jr and it was a great choice that we made and then it was time to keep on heading closer to wellington but there was a motel up ahead and we thought if we should stay here for a night. So  we went to see if there was any room for six samuels to lay there heads down for a sleep but we also thought of going for a spa there which they had do you like spa,s at all? My family love spa,s. We played the animal game and watched a movie after the spa. We watched Real Steel.

The movie finished a 12.30am on the 29th of december and I had the choice to sleep on the ground. only with a pillow and my Pj,s which was a cow onesie. I
t was a great night but the problem was we had to leave in the morning to get to wellington, so that is what we did. Knowing how much my brothers missed that place once we packed up the next morning. We drove for six and a half hours to get to wellington to see some old friends like Harry, Chirstian and Rodney for dinner and to sleep for the night we went to Shane and Jade's house.

The next morning we played a game that one of there sons made up a game with four balls and a trampoline and the four balls can't touch the trampoline mat but if they do you are out.We played with lego and built things like castles until 12.00 but we all got to know each other much better. The Ferry will take us three hours to the South Island. Hope that the ferry will not take three hours.

The ferry is to come. Later see you in the South Island

Prize Giving 2013


Sitting down waiting for the Senior Prize Giving to start I had thrills for what things people will get in. Thrilled to her that my brother Jordan come first in academic. seeing people smiling on stage made me fell great. Know that I will not be able to get a prize for 2013 at Prize Giving.

I have tried this year to become a prefect our a house caption for next year. That is my goal. How could you become a prefect for next year if you wanted to? Prefect's have to be responsible and to now what they are doing. I hope I get the job for 2014. Would you like to get the job?

Then the time was now to see if I could, but I didn't get it but I am a house captain. Yes I am a house captain for Tainui with Annilz. Next year I'm looking forward to cross country and athletics because I believe I can take Tainui to first.
