West Midlands Safari Park

Saturday, 27 October 2007 09:02 by Admin

Before I realised it was afternoon and I was to go to The West Midlands Safari Park. It was a free trip from school for my whole family. We were traveling there by a coach. So we got out of our house to get to the school which is where the coach was.

About 45mins later we were there in the Safari park! But first we went to eat something because we were starving after the bus trip. We went to eat to a place called PIZZA! I had southern fried chicken and chips. Then after that I went to have a look around the place. First we went to THE DISCOVERY PLACE then we went to the SEA LION SHOW! I can tell you that he is interligent!! Then we went to see the ELLUMINATION! It was so Fantastic. As we walked through the path, we noticed a very horrible SMELL! We look to our left and saw a huge Hipappotamus. I think that was where the smell was coming from. We walked as fast as we could away from the smell! Then we saw lots of swans and on the other side there was lots of rides like The Big Water slide, Twister and lots more! Then we came across a Bumper car place! My brother wanted to go on it so my dad and my brother went on the bumper car while me and my mum watched.

We had catch the coach so we could get back home! But there was a problem, we didn't know the way out. About 30mins later we found the exit. On the way we went across a shop. My dad bought me a tiger bear and a tiger printed pen! He also brought my brother a toy bus! When we finally got in the coach and before we knew we were home!

Am I an Artist or not?

Wednesday, 19 September 2007 23:30 by hafa

I always loved art and I especially loved drawing then anything else. I spend most of my holiday drawing. I love drawing anything. But I enjoy drawing cartoon characters because I am better at it and its much much easier.

I wasn't good at it first when I started, If I didn't draw a nice picture I would be really angry. But as I grew up I became better at it. Now I don't get angry if I don't get a nice picture I just keep on trying and now I just hardly get a bad picture!

Children in my class always said I am a great artist but I don't know if that's true or not! My dad is also good at art and my grandfather was a real artist too although he doesn't draw anymore. So I think thats why I am good at drawing stuff. What do you think?

The amazing Seal Life Centre

Sunday, 9 September 2007 23:27 by hafa

Me and my family always wanted to go to sea life centre so we could see all the fishes. So we did.

On a Friday summer morning we went set off to Sea Life Centre. Not that long and we were there. While we waited to get our tickets, someone came and he was dressed like a turtle. He was very funny. So my dad asked him if he could take a picture with me! The turtle grabbed my hand and pulled me to him. Then me and the turtle possed for a picture. He kept covering my face so he would be the only one seen in the picture. I kept taking his hand off but he kept putting it on my face.

After we got the tickets we went to the place where baby sharks were.There were lots of them and they were great to look at. Then we went to the jelly fish zone. There were tiny jelly fishes that looked like spiders and there were other jelly fishes that were huge. Then we went to the sea horse bay. There were lots of sea horses but they were tiny. I could nearly see them. Next was the New Amazonia. It was like a colourfull rainforest and it had a fish pool. There were amazing fishes. There were stingrays who's body was black and had white dots on them and others were cream colour and had brown dots on them.

Then we went to the Save the Turtles part of the sea life centre. There was a lift and we had to press 0. Then it stopped. The lift door opened. We could only go one way or else it would take a long time so we decide to go to the under world tunnel. It was a tunnel and all the fishes were right above us. There were turtles which were nearly as big as me! The tunnel led us to a place called the lost city! We went in and there was a maze not a ordainary maze. There were mirrows we couldn't see them. At first I didn't know there were mirrows so I bumped into one. It was really really tricky. I could see my dad on the right and on the left because of the mirrow. I didn't know where I was. We all met at the end of the maze! We all were happy to know that everyone is here.We found the way out sign and we went out.

It was the end of the tour so we headed back home. We caught the bus and we were home before night fall. I had a fantastic time so why don't you go to the Sea Life Centre.

An afternoon in Oxford

Friday, 31 August 2007 21:19 by hafa

I arrived in Oxford with my family at 1.00 o'clock in the afternoon. The aim was to do lots before nightfall and to return to Birmingham. So we bought tickets to go on the Open top bus. It is a double deacker bus but upstairs of it isn't covered so we could see everything. We got headphones and we pluged it in and it tells us what place that the bus is passing by. After one hour the bus tour finished and we got off at the next stop.

After that, we went to a nearby garden. There were lots of nice flowers and plants and it looked beautiful. We walked around the garden until we were tired. Then we tried to find a way out but we didn't. We asked a man who was waiting at the gate where the city was. He told us the directions and we followed it and got to the next bus stop. So we waited and took the bus to the railway staion. There we got the tickets and got on to the train. I was so hungry in the train so we went into the little shop in the train and i bought a small packet of apple juice, Salted Peanuts and a Mars chocolate bar. Soon it was time to get off at Birmingham New Street station. Not so long and I was at home. I had a great day at Oxford and I think you should go there as well!

Crunchiest buguette or is that it?

Friday, 17 August 2007 09:01 by hafa

I have always loved good food. Delicious food is something that I always look forward to. My biological built allows me to enjoy food without so much thought on the ingredients that goes into making it. A limitation though, is the high price that supermarkets put on them. Once of my all-time favourite snack is ‘garlic bread’. It costs £ 1.99 for ten little ready-to-bake slices and I use to have my daddy buy it once in a while. But I find it expensive, so I treat it as a luxury.

You know what; I just laid my hands on the recipe for garlic bread and I now can make garlic bread on my own. It is no more a luxury. My all time favourite is now palatable at my choice, barely at the cost of an off-the-shelf buguette which works for less than a half quid.

Happier then ever, today I went out with my Daddy and bought a really long buguette. Buying is one thing, but carrying it home is another. I felt it odd and funny to hand carry an extremely long buegette from the near by Sainsbury’s store.

To know that the crunchiest buguette has many uses beyond the product is good. But does it stand a reason for its length? I would have preferred slant cuts of it, ready-to-be-made instead of ready-to-bake, what would be your choice, if you ever had one.

My day out at Spectrum

Friday, 10 August 2007 09:06 by hafa

I did lots of things in Guildford and one of them was going to spetrum.

One friday afternoon, we went out in search of spetrum the icon for children entertainment in Guildford, Surrey. We got on to bus number 27 changed at town centre for bus number 100 which headed straight into spetrum and reached there in less then 30 minutes. The place appeared huge from outside and i was thrilled to go in and see what is in there for us. First we went to speacky's pirate ship in spetrum. Fortunatly this pirate ship wasn't running in the sea and there were no pirates on board. Instead there were lots of other things to do. There were trampolines, ball pits, slides, tunnels and many other stuff to do. Before i even realised i spent 90 minutes inside.

I was hungry and tired too.So i convised my dad and my little brother and saud be and Yooh to go to burger king. I enjoyed my food but above all i enjoyed the free toy they offered. By the time we finished they were ready to close and we left.

A boring rainy day turns in to a fun afternoon!!

Saturday, 30 June 2007 08:27 by hafa

It was a boring and rainy day. It was arranged that my best friend Klaudia was to come to my house. We had nothing  to do. We couldn't even go out because it was raining. So we sat, doing nothing. Later we found out that there was a festival going on just in front of my house.

Me and Klaudia rushed in to the festival. First we played hook the duck. It wasn't easy to begin with but we got the hang of it. Five minutes later we hooked the duck and both of us got a groovy chick notebook. Then we went in to the boucy castle and it started to rain. But it didn't stop us from boucing on the boucy castle. After that we thought we will have our face painted so we did. But there was a long que. While we waited to get our face painted we listened and watched a man performe jokes and magic tricks. He kept us entertained till it was our turn to get our face painted. Us both painted our face like pink cats. As soon as we finished painting our faces the festival started to close so we went back home in the rain!
