What I did in the weekend! 17/5/2021

Yesterday, I went ice skating at Alpine ice with my friend!

In the car ride to Alpine ice, I was really nervous.

It was only my second time skating. When my mum parked, my friend and I ran up to each other and gave each other a big bear hug. As we entered the building, I started to regret my decisions   I was really scared- My hands were shaking, And I just wanted to run away screaming. My friend (Who is a professional skater) grabbed me by the hand and took me to put on my ice skates. I shook my head, and she assured me that I will be okay. I slid into the ice skates and walked onto the ice. I tried my best not to fall over and my friend taught me how to stand, and how to do a cross over. I successfully learned how to skate in just two hours! I was very proud of myself. My friend and I were skating in circles hand in hand, and just giggling and talking about life. I really enjoyed it.

Everyone played a game called ''Spin the bottle'' Basically what it is, is everyone stands in a circle, and a bottle gets spun. Whoever the bottle lands on, wins a prize! Sadly, I didn't win anything. But I didn't really care. My friend and I bought some hot chips and we were so hungry, that after a couple of seconds, the chips were gone.

Near the end of the session, something traumatic happened!- A girl broke her leg while skating. A huge crowd surrounded her. She looked in pain, but she wasn't crying, and I think that was because she was is shock. A wheelchair was rolled onto the ice, and the girl was taken away. I felt really sorry for her. :(

My mum made a video of me and my friend skating, but I sadly cannot put in onto my blog.

Overall, I really enjoyed ice skating, and I really want to go ice skating again! :)

Dark Creative Piece Of Writing (Words of the DP)

 Hey Guys! Today for writing we had to write a short descriptive story of us skydiving. We weren't allowed to use the words ''Skydive'' And ''Skydiving''

 Here's my work! I do hope you like it. :)

I waited anxiously to jump down. I looked out of the window and saw that the ground was tiny! a sensation of butterflies filled my stomach. It felt like they were having a disco in there! 

The pilot signaled that it was okay to jump down. The door opens slowly  and I grab the edge of a seat and hold on for dear life. ''Anytime now..'' The pilot yells from the cockpit. I look down. My legs feel like spaghetti and my whole body is shaking. I took a running leap and jumped out of the plane. I started to scream! I tried to take out my dismantled parachute but it didn't work.. I knew that this was the end. I saluted as I waited for my doom.

How to write a letter!

This is just a little explaining on how to write a letter properly.I was assigned this for reading.

I hope this was useful and I hope you enjoy! This is my letter.

This is also a letter to KORE. You can use this as another example.

Dear KORE,

 I really enjoyed sailing. 

All the instructors taught me many valuable things that I can use in life. 

For example: By fighting your fears, you can accomplish many  things and make yourself proud.

At first I was really scared. and I thought that I couldn’t sail. I thought that the water was too cold.. That I may fall into the water.. That I wouldn’t succeed. 

But all the instructors made me feel safe. And eventually I overcame my fear and got into the water. I accomplished my goal. And I sailed! I was very proud of myself. 

Thank you for teaching me, and all of the Belfast senior syndicate how to sail.

                                                                          Sincerely, Sofiya.
