The Golden Compass
The Golden Compass is about a young girl by the name of Lyra and her daemon Pan. These two adventurous pair has been caught in a world with magic, and Polar Bears. Lyra meets a bear named Iorek. Lyra has tricked the King of bears, Ifour Raknison into believing that she is a daemon. Iorek defeats Ifour and becomes the King of the Bears. Lyra has a device, called the Golden Compass. It is a truth-teller or an alethiometer. This is a wonderful book and Philip Pullman had constructed it well. I believe that everyone should read it!

2010
I cannot believe it! It is 2010 and I am in grade 8. It seemed like it was only yesterday, when I started year 7!

What is....
What is sweet? Lollies are sweet
Like the rainbow, with their colours
What is sour? Sherbet is sour
Like sharks teeth on your tongue
What is healthy? Veggies and Fruit are
Some taste nice, while others don’t
What is yellow? Pineapple is Yellow
With its soft flesh inside
What is green? Kiwi fruit is green
The juice runs down your hands
What looks like the moon?
A Banana
What is yummy and contains rice?
Sushi contains rice along with other good-for-you stuff
What is soft, milky and melts in your mouth?
Chocolate!

The New School Atmosphere
The door swung inward. I stood and breathed
The new school atmosphere.
We moved in from a town, in the country.
Not, as if anyone knew where it was.
I knew that it would be hard to make friends because,
Everybody, who was a somebody, knew everybody. Where we came from
I wasn’t here by myself. There were three of us.
Julia, was 12, I just turned 13. And Jack, well Jack, he was also 13.
Luckily, we were all in the same class.
We were all nervous. Jack was on my left, and Julia, on my right.
This was the way that we enter any school. Hand-in-hand.
As we walked, we felt like there were a million eyes staring at us.
We were kind of use to it by now.
We were like a team, Julia had the Brains, Jack had the style
While, I was outgoing, and the leader.
Our first class was English. I wasn’t good at that.
Julia was good at Maths, and also hated English.
While Jack was the best, we always copied his answers
We had a teacher called: Mrs. Roberston
She looked kind and generous, luckily, she didn’t ask us any questions.
We stuck together all day, what else would we do?
When we got to our knew home, I stopped and breathed
It smelt and felt like home.
I knew that we would enjoy being here.

The World is a Beautiful Place!
Can you hear the lorikeets or, the water rippling down the stream, how about, the animals talking to each other? These are some of the most beautiful things in the world.
There are many beautiful things, some, man-made and others natural. Diamonds, Rubies and Emeralds are found underground. We have to dig them up. In the sun, they shine like a rainbow, glitter like the clear stream and sound like the humming birds.
Pearls are found under the sea surface, in oysters. When you hold a pearl, they shine like the ocean, sound like the rippling waves and feel like the soft, cool breeze.
Nature can bring you fantastic beauty. Found in all parts of the world, there are many treasures to behold.
The springs in the rainforests, are trickling down their path, and fall down dramatically as they become the waterfall. Down, down, down, they go and start trickling once they hit the bottom.
