More about my Aim

If you are a long-time reader of this blog, you will know that I set an aim to get as many views as possible from around the world. This aim is coming along nicely, and I am slowly becoming a bit more recognised globally. Last time I checked, I had had views from about 7 countries worldwide, most of whom I knew (As I told Bubbles, "I have sent my URL to friends and family round the world, and hopefully they still check their emails. I sent it to people from Aussie, Ireland, quite a few in England and NZ, Germany, Canada, and also other places that I can't remember"). Although there has been a few mystery views, like my dot from the US and A, who must have got on to my blog somehow.

Controversial News

Are you interested in the global and national news? I want to find out what sort of stuff you want from my blog. I could make this a news-desk kind of website, or I could continue posting completely random items that pop into my head. If you so wish, I could even do both, all I want is a comment saying what sort of stuff you want to read on my blog. And if you do post a comment, try to say what kind of news, I could post the week's weather, or some politics stuff, or the really interesting controversial news, like the aussie bushfires, or the situation at FFC (Fairfield College). So just tell me what you want, and I'll do my best to give it to you.

More about my class

My class is still totally cool, a few days later. We are still doing awesome stuff, and even now I do not understand the awesomeness of our teacher and all my fellow classmates. I seriously recommend that you go into my profile, and follow one of the links to their great blogs. As we are an accelerate (pronounced ak-SELL-ar-at) class, we are all brainy learners. This helps us understand the world, study it, empathise with it, and help make it a better place. This year we shall do just that, and with Mr Woody as our teacher, anything is possible!

Bush Dwellers

On camp soon we are gonna be going on "OVERNIGHT". Overnight is super fun 'cause you get to sleep in tents or shelter somewhere where we are gonna be surviving on our own wits and how much we can carry in our backpacks (insert dramatic instrumental). Just kidding, but we will be tramping and living in the bush overnight. Last year at Port Waikato overnight was so much fun, and I reckon this year at Pauanui will be even more fun. 8-)
