=2014= Suddenly the time was out and there I was standing lonely in the corner of the stage. All eyes were on me. A cold breeze blew past as an awkward silence was there! The first word is always the hardest but I managed to blurt it out. More and more through the song the more comfortable it became. The song that I wrote just came to my head as quick as lightning! Slowly an applause came. I was so proud. I quietly plonked the chair down and scattered back stage to quickly rummage into my next costume! Again I was on stage, my head filled with butterflies. All that came to me was “What am I doing? When am I doing it and who am I playing?” The curtain opens and I emerged as a new person! Finally I made a leap off the stage and once more I was walking into a new costume! Piles of makeup splattered on my face, I skidded onto the stage and a gasp of wonder struck the audience as a beautiful, song writing, young girl transformed into the ugliest, oldest witch in the world!!! Sickly sweet on the outside but in the inside she had a very cunning plan to eat sausages for dinner! The Bad Jelly suddenly bellowed out of me. One of my goals was to keep in character the whole time which I think I achieved well because I spoke loudly and clearly! I crept off the stage and changed yet again into another costume. All us girls lined up ready to dance our hearts out! Soon enough we were dancing. The hardest part was to keeping time but we did it fine! Afterwards we zipped off the stage and dashed into our lines for the school song. Once more I was back on stage. We all sang our Song. It sounded better than what we practiced like. I learnt that you can't harmonise when it’s not tuneful! I think we were all proud of how the day ended with a great show and lots of proud people. Overall it was a great night. I was very proud of how I sang my song and how I tried to stay in character as Bad Jelly! And that I am not much of a dancer because I have never done dance lessons but I tried my hardest and It all worked out! ||

My nerves were as scared as a deer in hunting season as I knew I was two acts away! All that was running through my mind was the song words and the ukulele chords.

I thought I did really well. My favorite act was Huntah and Ben called 'Fun house', They sang and performed really well. They were fun to watch! I thought that the piano people did really well too. I have never liked to sing in front of people, so I was proud that I did. When I started singing I was always very very shy. Even a little audience made me feel sick. But now I enjoy singing I'm still a bit shy though 'Apiti's Got Talent' I am going to sing 'Love story' - Taylor Swift I need to media type="file" key="Hannah - take 1.flv" width="360" height="270"media type="youtube" key="6ZHdw6-C_1k" width="420" height="315"

**__ Wearable Art __** Lilly the lizard glides in as slowly as a turtle. bugs in the l She is grumbling as she glides, searching for some ong strong grass. She is the last green Gecko. She slowly moves forward with her slithering, green legs. Her tongue flicks out of her square, slimy mouth like a frogs tongue. All she wants is to catch a fly. With incredible aim she wraps her tongue around the fly and swallows it with a loud gulp. The fly struggles to fly out but it does not make it and it is taken by the lizard for dinner. My green creation is inspired by my love of green! Its green body represents the colour of nature.

This is my mirror I made it with shells and sand. it was for the Apiti Show reflections. I am learning to be creative I am learnt how to make a pottery leaf bowl. I made it a bowl so I can serve people with it i will serve lollies and some food.

I also made a hyper tufa pot and we put some plants in them.

My favourite part was making the paper mache bowl.

I am proud of my painting because i went all the same way. I learnt how to be creative. Next year i want to paint a butterfly. I like painting, I want to do lots of painting.
