Over the last few months me and my friends have been reading the Girlfriend Fiction books. They are books from various authors about the lives of teenagers. They are about situations that teenagers would face in their lives like relationships, family,schooling & Love.
They great thing about these books are that the are not sequeals of eachother. Each books has a new story and new characters so you don’t need to read them in order or anything.
I currently have twelve of the sixteen girlfriend fiction books, and have read them all. 
So for teenage girls these books are are great Christmas Gift. If you’d like to know more about these books visit http://www.allenandunwin.com/girlfriendfiction
Here is a list of the current Girlfrind Fiction books.
There are more books coming out in the coming year.

Yesterday we had Robyn Moore come to our school to give us an inspirational speech. If you don’t know who Robyn is she is the voice over of the character of Blinky Bill along with 199 other characters she voices for.
Robyn is a volunteer for ‘The Make A Wish Foundation’ and helps to keep kids with Life threatening ilnesses happy as they can be by granting their most wanted wished for them.
She gave us some very inspirational quotes and points to think about.
If you have a friend who is holding you back from showing your true capabilities and potential leave them behind because in the end your the one who has to make a future for yourself no one else. That was proberbly the most thoughful thing I got out of yesterdays presentation. I want to make a good life for myself in the future and that starts now, doing what I know will be best for my future and my happiness in the long run is what I will being doing from now on and not caring what others think or say about me. I won’t get dragged into a bad crowd, bad habits or bad people because that is not me or the way I want to be.
Robyn also told us to never give up, if we are in a bad mood realise that being like that is not helping us at all so why not be happy
She told us to keep our family close to us and continally tell them how much you love them, so yesterday I told my Mum, Dad and Brother how much I love them while we were walking along the beach I really do Love my family and i’m sure they know that but still make sure I remind them occasionally.

This year our class has worked really hard during our science classes.
Our teacher put in alot of hard work to organise science week for all the primary and middle school students of 2009 to see.
Science week was in August and it was a whole week when grade 8’s, 9’s and 10’s showed the younger children some stuff about science as an introduction to when they get to do more science in their future years of high school.
Some of the experiments shown were science about eggs, Bubble blowing, making polymers, Slime, Elephants Toothpaste, Heiliem aswell as an experiment on Diet Coke and Mentos.
We even had a class of Asian university students come and have a look at our setup and they really enjoyed seeing the experiments expecially the bubbles.

So i’m after comments about what your dream Christmas Present would be or what you would like for the Chrismas of 2009??
I know for me, a new hair straightner is on the top of my list.
I don’t really have many other ideas for what I would like, maybe some new books.
Here is the website where I got my picture from.
I will miss my friends during the holidays but I hope to catch up with them.

I’ve just played a simulation game called ‘Stop Disasters’. In the game you got to choose a senario of a natural disaster and then having aboout 15 minutes to put in place as many safety things as you can with a limited budget. I added a Hospial, School and two hotels aswell as break waters, seismic sensor, emergency signs and a radio system.
I found the game a little bit like Sims and did enjoy my fifteen minutes of saving a costal terrain in South East Asia of a Tsunami.
I recommend this game for you if you like sims and enjoy natural disasters and learning about them. I recieved a Gold medal at the end of my time playing why don’t you see if you can match my score.

I Have made a Quiz using MyStudiyo.
I want to see who actually reads my blog posts and takes in the information I write. So the answers to my quiz questions are found in my blog. So start my quiz and see how much you really know about me and my blog.
Click here to start my quiz.
A good idea may be to have my personal blog up aswell as the quiz and then you can refer to my blog for answers to get 100% correct.
