All About Sailing.

 

Dear Diary,
Our class Room 8 went to Yachting New Zealand in Okahu Bay.  St. John's Rotary raised money for us so we could go sailing. I was very happy and excited at the same time.
 
Unfortunately, our bus was late because of the traffic and that made us feel annoyed. When we got to Okahu Bay, our sailing people introduced themselves to us. Then we were told to pick a partner for sailing. Then we were also told us what to do when your on a sailing boat.



After 15 or 10 minutes of morning tea we got changed into our wet suit. Our instructor told us  how to use the boat, why we were wearing a life jacket and why the boat is so important when you are sailing.    
We got into partners of two. We started to paddle until it started to move. The instructor told us to attach the rope to other students boat and they dragged us around behind their speed boat. It was a really fun day and I am glad I now know how to sail a small boat.

My Diary Entry

I was spending sometime by my self until a girl came into my life. I felt happy for the first time since I lived in this hotel. I was hoping to make friends with her. But I took her umbrella and started running. She caught me and I was trapped. She took the umbrella of my hand and I started to cry with tears and told her why I took her umbrella. The reason was because it reminded me of my own yellow umbrella my parents had given me. I told her about how my parents were in a car crash.  I felt sad that I was crying in front of her. She also felt sad about what happend to my parents and the umbrella.
