Can't wait for camp!!!

Camp is coming in week 6!!! I am really excited for camp. I am most excited about caving. I have been caving  and tubing before and it was so fun. I cant wait to do it again. I am not really worried about anything. Probably the thing I should worry about most is getting carsick on the way their and back. I have been going to Kathmandu a lot lately. My sister likes to pronounce it Ka-th-man-du just to annoy me. We have gotten cool new shoes, thermals, jackets etc... I am finding it a little annoying having to do practical tasks when I am busy. For example trying to work on my blog that you are reading now when mum calls "Rebecca come set the table!" and then I forget about my blog and have to try and figure out what I was writing when I went to set the table. I also have to fit in a 15 min go on the treadmill and netball practice for the netball trials which our happening just before camp.

2014!!!

It's a new year and school has started again. We have only been away for six weeks but quite a lot of things have changed. There are only small changes but they still are changes. For instance we have new wall coverings on the walls that are blue and green. Its surprising how small things can change the room a lot. The second thing is that the rubbish bin is in a different place. I know it seems silly but I still walk over to where the rubbish bin used to bin and end up walking away embarrassed. The most weird thing about this year though is that all last years year eights are gone. Its funny how you get used to your class and you can tell who's in your class by looking at them. I have only just gotten used to this years class.

Being a year eight does add a lot of responsibility to school because we are now the oldest in the school. the best bit about being a year eight might just be sitting on the chairs. Now we no longer have to sit squashed up on the ground with pins and needle in our legs! Everyone always enjoys dodge ball during the year. I find it really fun even though we play it nearly every day it is always fun. We played the best game of dodge ball against the year sevens during the first week of school.  I guess it wasn't really fair on the year sevens because we kind of smashed them but it was awesome!

I am a little sad that it is our last year at St Benedict's but I am going to make the most of it. After being at this school for most of my life it will be weird to leave so I hope this year doesn't go by to fast like last year.
