Imperious


Written on May 30, 2008 – 9:21 am | by jiordyn

Imperious you are probably wondering what it means,well imperious means undefeated and the best.

That is what my hip hop dance group is called and on Saturday night one week ago our group performed at the Te Awamutu community church in a talent quest There were singers and dancers and even some guest performers like the Levites and a dance group called XXL who travel alot and are really awesome because they practice something like 20 hours a week.

As I was saying we got there and we had to sit down and wait they called our name and we went up on stage pumped up as we got into position I was getting nervous and then adrenaline rushed through me and all i had to do was dance and i did i danced as hard as i could then there was the wait after to see who came 1st 2nd and 3rd they announced that third was the flight of the Concords tribute band because they did it well and it was funny as.

then second we thought it was us then they said it was woody a man who got up and sung…in about five different languages and with an accent and the judges gave woody second because he was original.

then first we thought we hadn’t got a placing but we had FIRST imperious won it was the most exciting thing ever we all screamed and jumped on our  seats we went up to grab our prize which was a huge basket full of mini chocolate bars and heaps of tubes of MnM’s then they gave us a warehouse gift card but it didn’t say for how much and also a CBR voucher for 50 bucks so that was my night at the talent quest and to night i have got a performance at founders theatre and i’ll surely write a post about that when i get back.

Answer to riddle no.1!


Written on March 29, 2008 – 6:49 pm | by jiordyn

The answer to riddle no.1 is the bird is deaf because if you look back the shopkeeper said that he would repeat every word he heard and if he was deaf he couldn’t hear anything so he of course he couldn’t repeat it !!

I guarantee,” said the salesman in the pet shop, “that this purple parrot will repeat every word it hears.” A customer bought the bird, but found that the parrot wouldn’t speak a single word. Nevertheless, what the salesman said was true. How could this be? I will give you the answer on wednesday!

My term 1 and 2 2008 goals


Written on March 19, 2008 – 7:20 pm | by jiordyn

I want to be able to recite my times tables up to twelve and back again. I will achieve this by practicing reciting them and writing them out.

I want to be able to shoot better (in netball)i will do this by shoting up to 20 goals in 3 minutes I will try to time myself.

I want to be able to work better in a group and not be so self centered I will do this by practicing my listening skills and putting forward ideas and taking control of my involvement.

I would also like to look more into the french culture as that is the language we are studying at the moment i will do this by concentrating more n french and expanding my learning and studying more.

Intensity


Written on March 17, 2008 – 8:12 pm | by jiordyn

I’ve never really been in the midst of an intense situation before but that sure changed on Friday night.

We were visiting our grandparents house and having a laugh.  I was hanging out with my cousin, who was there for the night.  Everyone was happy and it was the usual LOUD atmosphere, that’s what we know and love.

Then…the phone rang.  Opa answered it and pretty much passed it straight to Oma.  She said, “Hello” and then there was silence for a while.  When she spoke again, we all knew something was terribly wrong.  Her voice was  shaky and Opa was asking what was wrong…Oma looked up at him with teary eyes and told him that her friend had been killed.  We all sat silent, not knowing where to look or what to say.

 When she hung up the phone, she sat at the table in total disbelief.  I got up, walked over to her and gave her a big hug.  That was all I could do and I think I needed the hug just as much because the intensity of it all was kind of scary!!!

Doors (my poetic writing)


Written on March 17, 2008 – 10:14 am | by jiordyn

 

 

 

 

A door is like a person in so many ways, open is glad and joyous a good attitude everything can happen and nothing is impossible.Closed is neutral, leave me alone an attitude like a ticking time bomb.Closed and locked is don’t get near or a guaranteed head biting coming your way, sad and depressed nothing is possible.Squeaking is shy, quiet and timid.Big wooden doors are strong, loud and bossy kind of the leaders of the pack.Thin screen doors are dodgy and are always breaking while a barn door is strong but reliable.A garage door gets bumped and bruised.An open door can lead to anything. A door is like an open book don’t judge it by its cover. Go, explore but be careful where you go because everyday is doorLike a person in so many ways.
