Jean Batten day

 I was making careful folds on my paper plane called a moth it was the last fold it was perfect everyone in my team finished their planes so we all went to test our planes accuracy through a hoop so we lined up.  Everyone in my group missed the hoop by a mile.  So we moved on to "MAYDAY MAYDAY" we all lined up there was a bullseye taped on the door, but we all failed again.


The next course was whos paper plane could fly furthest it was my turn to throw but all my plane did was loop de loops and didn't get a metre far so I lost and Cory won after all the teams did the courses only one person made it through the hoop he was Stormur.


We then went onto the next activity making a buzz plane with a toothbrush, small battery, thumb tack and two small led lights , we grabbed the toothbrush and cut the front off,  then you get the thumb tack and stick it on the front of the tooth brush then grab your battery and stick the red wire to the thumb tack then put the battery on top of the red wire and stick the black wire up. 


Then it should start vibrating , once it does put it onto a hard surface and it will most likely do donuts on the floor.

Cross country

"On your marks, get set go BANG!" I sprinted, my legs moving faster than light "swoosh".  People got a glimpse of me, before I sprinted past them, "arghh". I felt a sharp pain in my chest, it hurt badly, causing me to rapidly slow. Before I knew it, people started passing me. At this point, I was now 10th placing. So again once again, I started jogging. I was at the sand dunes running up the hill and then down.  I was running down the dip, my chest still in pain but I persevered and kept going.


Now in my second lap, the crowds had began to cheer and shout as I jogged passed. I was super puffed, it was getting harder and harder to breath, sweat was dripping down my face, and my legs were on fire, and felt like they melting right to the bone. I was exhausted, gasping for breath, yet I kept on pushing. 


I came back to the dip, I nearly fell down the hill while I was running.  You know what was even worse? I had pins and needles too.  I was set to tie 8th with Cash, I wasn't having any of this! so I sped up, I was roughly a metre in front of him, the crowd were shouting "go Reef" but then I looked behind me and I saw Cash sprinting too, so I ran for 8th place and that was my final placing.
