Adios StampIt:))))

Yesterday the Mini Company competition took place.  The company I was part of was StampIt.  My group and I spent all year making personalized Christmas cards which we personalized by stamping each persons name on them.  It took a lot of time, especially the report at the end which we needed for the competition.

The competition was really nerve wrecking.  We set up our stand so it was very Christmassy.  I was in charge of the decorations and it was really weird getting the Christmas decorations from the attic in the middle of February! It was worth it though because our stand looked really good!  The judges came around first and looked at each of the stands.  We then had to go up in front of them and the entire year, give them our report and talk about every part of our Mini Company for 3 minutes.

This is a really bad picture but here is our group; Carol, me, Jane and Molly:)) 

I was so relieved when we were finished talking as I knew we could move away from Mini Company now because it caused so much stress.  To our surprise we won best report which was a great ending to the experience.  

Somewhere I would like to go in the future

One of our blog challenges is to write about a place we would like to visit sometime in the future.  I have traveled a lot in the past and have seen loads of amazing things!  The main place I have not visited yet but would really like to is Greece.

I have seen many pictures of Greece with its many old white buildings, blue skies and seas.  It looks amazing!  It is only in the past year or two that I would like to go here.  In 2nd or 3rd year as part of SPHE we watched "The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants".  One of the girls in this went to Greece and since I watched that, I would love to visit it!

Another reason besides the beautiful scenery that I would like to visit Greece is that it seems to have a really relaxed atmosphere with fishermen everywhere!  The weather seems to be amazing with not a cloud in the sky and rain seems unimaginable.  I hate rain so this would be really really great.  I hope that I get to visit Greece when I leave school so I can see if it is as unreal as it looks.

Zumbaaa

As part of TY, we have to do Zumba for PE for 4 weeks.  My class have been split in half and we are doing it with class Ariel on Thursdays.

I wasn't really looking forward to the first week of Zumba.  I don't have good co-ordination whatsoever and find dancing really hard.  I was finding it hard to keep up with the woman showing us how to do it.  Now that it is almost over though, it is really fun! People are getting really into it and it's a lot of fun.  The dances are getting a lot easier as the weeks go on and it is a nice change.

There is only one week left of Zumba which is pretty disappointing.  It has been good fun though so me, Jane, Gemma and Emily went to Zumba in the Mill last week, bantssss xx
