How Far Will Liverpool Go In The Champions League?

With almost 100% odds of Liverpool getting through to the Champions League quarters after a 5-0 demolition of Porto, it left me wondering how far Liverpool could get in the Champions League. If Liverpool is drawn against an EPL team it would be the easiest route to the semis. But if we draw someone like Real Madrid, Juventus or Barca we would have little chance, but Chelsea just drew 1-1 with Barca so maybe there is a chance 😁 Come on Liverpool!

Liverpool showed their true brilliance demolishing Maribor 7-0

Attitude Day With Lex

My favourite activity was listening because he was actually interesting to listen to. My favourite joke of his was the sheep one because it made Jesse make the weirdest laugh ever. We also had to take some strange animal personality test where I came out as a lion (a leader). 3 things I learnt were,
I am a lion,
How to help people,
Basic Comedy Skills.

Drive Time

For this post I had to pick any car in the world I would like to be and explain why. I would love to be a tuk-tuk because they are just so cool! No.1 the name just sounds so cool. No.2 the crash easily but don't get too damaged just like me. No.3 the fact they drive on three wheels makes it perfect for drifting something I've always wanted to do.

My First Week Back In Marama

For this post, I had to recap on my first week in Marama so here it is. Through the first week, we learnt about the Learning Powers and the I Care values. I particularly enjoyed the Creativity activity with Miss Darah because it involved problem-solving. Even though it wasn't in week one I really enjoyed was Beach Ed because it was a whole lot different to everything we were already doing.

Multiple Intelligences

Today I took a fair dinkum dodgy multiple intelligence's test and the results confused me,

I am pretty good at maths so the Logical-Mathematical one makes sense but then Linguistic is 25% lower than Logical-Mathematical even though most people would agree my writing by some degree better than my maths. Visual-Spatial should be a lot higher in my opinion as well, (at least 70%) as I am great with a camera and with choosing colour schemes. I also like building models and shapes as well as designing buildings. Intrapersonal should also be 50/50 with Interpersonal as I work well in both ways. Body-Kinesthetic should be higher as well, (at least 65%) overall 80% percent of the information from this test is wrong it does not reflect me at all.

Fixed Vs Growth Mindset

For this post, we had to think of what we would think to ourselves with a fixed or growth mindset when faced with a challenge. For example, a challenge might be climbing a tree. With a fixed mindset, I would say the tree is too tall and no way would I climb it*. With a growth mindset, I would easily climb the tree and then move on to a bigger one.

*I can actually climb a tree very easily.

My 2017/18 Summer Holiday

For this blog post, we had to choose a part of our holidays that we liked the most and write about why we chose it. The part of my holiday I chose was when my family and I made the long trip up to Mangawhai Heads to see my cousins.  On the trip up we stopped in Manukau for breakfast at a place called Urban Soul where I had a huge plate of crepes with whipped cream, berries, caramel sauce and chocolate sauce.

Once we got to our cousin's house we explored their newly built house as we had never been there before. Then after a quick match of WWE against my two and four years old cousins, we went down to picnic bay for a swim. I also used my Uncle's paddleboard in the shallower water. The following night we went fishing next to a big rock that looks like a sail which I guess is why they call it sail. We caught a lot of Kahawai and a shark bit the end off one when we reeling it in.

Here are some photos of my awesome holiday,

Beach Ed

On Wednesday this week, the whole Marama syndicate traveled to Wahi beach to take part in a Beach Ed day. The first things they taught us were the ten rules of the beach. Some of them included if in doubt stay out and never swim alone. Next, they taught us how to spot rips before giving us a tour of the lifeguard tower where they showed us the binoculars and the radio. We also got to sit in one of the IRB boats which was fun. Then we played games like seaweed and relays. Finally, we had a swim in the water where we learned how to wade through the water. My Favourite part of the day was relays as I am really good at running on sand.

The three key things I learn were,

• How to spot rips
• How to sit in an IRB if you are being rescued
• What happens inside the tower

My Favourite Song 2018

Elton John: I'm Still Standing

The reason I like this song so much is that he has such a good voice and sounds completely different to everyone else. I also enjoy this song because it is old but is not an extremely slow song. Overall it is just an incredibly catchy song, even my baby cousin sings.

My Quote For 2018

The reason I chose this quote was that I am an absolutely massive Liverpool F.C fan and I thought that this quote represents this quite nicely. Liverpool fans always feel the proudest of their club so I should be too. I am also very passionate about a lot of things and this quote shows that.
