Inquiry Term 2

Sky Diving

I woke up with an adrenalin rush and I thought I might puke. I can't believe it because I have been waiting ever since the third grade to go skydiving. It was the 23rd of June and I was heading to the airport feeling nervous.


When I got to the airport we had to put on heavy gear. Then I had to get weighed on a massive scale. I had butterflies in my stomach, I weighed 46 kilo's.


Then I had to get to get interviewed, I felt relaxed until we walked outside. I felt like a space man on the moon. As soon as I hopped into the plane I needed to go to the toilet but it was too late, we were already going too fast. I felt so sick, I almost threw up.


Suddenly we were in the sky, flying high. Then the instructor told me to get ready to jump. I was so scared I almost pooped my pants. Then I heard "3, 2,1" I froze with fear. "Go" shouted the instructor. I screamed like a little girl.


Next thing I knew I was 10,000 metres above the ground. We started doing flips. I was so scared because I thought the parachute might not pull, but it did. I thought my legs might break but we only landed with a little thud.


After I went sky diving we went back to a coffee store and drunk a nice hot chocolate.

Play league any more.

Term 2 Goals

On Top of the Mountain

I could see snow and my group ahead of me and all I could hear was the big crunch of my feet, crunching on the mountaintop. All I could think of doing was getting to the top and being famous. I’ll tell you one thing, I could smell the freshest air I have smelt in my entire life. My favourite bit was getting to the top because boy I thought it would take forever!
