Mathex 2018

Goal for 2018

My goal for 2018, which is this year is to prepare myself for NCEA in Term 4.
For me to actually complete this goal I’d have to be ON TIME! With the right attitude.
The reason that is because Showing/Giving the wrong attitude will lead to detentions
and I would NOT want that at all! TRUST ME!

HARD WORK is effort, But it is worth it!
Hard work is the basis for everything worthwhile you will achieve in life.
If work is applying your ability, then hard work is applying your ability with focus
and intensity to the exclusion of other possibilities.

When you PASS your EXAMS you’ll find it more easier to do it independently!
Once you have done that ask for MORE WORK!
Because being ahead of everyone is a sign
that you a are a HARD WORKING person!

You see a dream doesn't become reality through magic:
it takes sweat, determination, and HARD WORK.
Believe you can and you're halfway there.
Your WORK is going to fill a large part of your life,
and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great WORK.

Voting experience!

The party I voted for was LABOUR! The reason that was because labour party has more reasonable thoughts about this whole situation! The Labour Party is a centre-left political party in the United Kingdom. It has been described as a broad church, bringing together an alliance of social-democratic, socialist and trade-unionist outlooks.

Water cycle

Atlantis

Once the sun greeted a new day, I was Wide-eyed and wondering while I wait for others to waken. I thought to myself that the world was an oyster, that was still fresh. Underwater was clean as a whistle. I start to hear “rrrrrrrrrrrrr mm” from the motor boats from up above.  As slow as a snail I float up upon the water.

When I see the location of the boat , I see them dump a plastic pipe into the water to suck up everything  , and they had already started on using axe’s to shave the whole reef off. Watching them do this made me as scared as mouse from a cat , so I ran into town and hid in the underwater bakery. In that moment I thought I saw one of the coral’s turning brown but I didn’t really worry about that after still stressing on what the humans were doing here.  

As I came out of the store , ‘’holy cheeseballs’’ I said as the tank was half way till empty and most of the sea creatures were hiding from them before they were taken from the sea. There were already sea creatures taken to the boat and thought this was the day of our death. I couldn’t really see who exactly was taken since that day I lost my glasses at my old soccer field I used to play at. When I saw everyone taken away I thought that this needed an end to it. I swam up sneaking against their boat , when an anchor was on top of my head about to drop without me noticing.  When it dropped I heard a whistling noise coming down from the top of me and when it was about 120 centimetres away it had already hit the ground before it even got me. After my death been nearly caused I ran far away knowing I had no way of saving atlantis. So I strided off to my old soccer field.

Sitting down alone I could hear the water been sucked and nearly empty , I sat there thinking that my life wasn’t even over I still had a few more years till my death. Why now? When I sat there I saw these glasses that looked like my old ones. I tried it on and there it was , it was mine. When I got it back , I knew what I had to do and never give up on the place where I live. So I went back up to the boat and there were words on it saying , this water is poisonous and there will be a big change to the sea creatures living in atlantis which is for them to move to a happier place. When I saw that , this was all just a misunderstanding.

But they were all actually right , that’s why carroll's all started to turn brown and why I couldn’t really see it because I lost my glasses. When I saw this I left myself go and floated off to my new home. Our new home was just right.
