Bullying

I was once bullied
I don't like it
She called me names
I was so afraid
I tried to ignore
But nothing happened
I wish she'd disappear
It was just so unfair
I wanted to tell someone
But she'd bully even more
What could I do?
She called me a pathetic whore
I tried to fit in with their group
But it got way out of hand
She shoved, pushed, punched and hit
What could I do?
She'd just kick
Somehow her mum found out
I was never bullied again
I've learnt my lesson
If someone bullies you
Tell someone and it will never happen again

Easter

On Easter Friday, my family and I celebrated my beautiful baby cousin Melanie’s 1st  birthday party, at Horotiu School.

I jumped out of my lovely white cosy bed, quickly put my denim shorts and my cross tshirt on and I started to make pretty pink sparkly cupcakes.

I suddenly heard a loud knock at the blue wooden door. I opened it and Aunty Dee Dee walked in onto the tiled floor. I was going with her to the cool party. My mum said that I would have to stop at Jahnyva’s because she was coming to the party too. Jahnyva was letting us use Lapatte, her soft adorable bunny. Laplatte had black and white fur. We were using him because it was an Easter themed birthday party.

Once we got to Horotiu, we went into the hall. Amanee, Jahnyva and I played a game of basketball with an orange and black striped ball. The basketball felt quite hard and firm. Also, there was a soft bouncy ball, not as hard as the basketball.  After a while, a face painter turned up. I got a  pink bunny with some silver glitter. Amarnee and Jahnyva got  that too. Everyone started to show up, but the birthday girl wasn’t there yet. A car showed up. Melarn arrived. She was so pretty. Everyone cuddled her. No one wanted to let go of her. We were all having so much fun. Dee Dee said, “It doesn’t stop here.”

1, 2, 3, a bouncy castle showed up. There were two bouncy castles, one for the little kids which was red, yellow, and blue. Jahnyva, Amarnee and I got into trouble because we were on the little bouncy castle. We only went on it because we didn’t know that it was for little kids. The big bouncy castle was colourful. Kalen, my cousin, wanted to do a bouncy castle and Jahnyva said, “Why not?”

This was how the trick went: there were gaps in the sides of the bouncy castle. We went through the sides and, when he said, “I will bring them back,” we climbed back through. We wanted to stay on the bouncy castle longer but it was (kai food ) time.  We were in the middle of eating when it was time for the big kids’ treasure hunt. 
We had to go to the senior playground and find five Easter Eggs. Once we had found the Easter Eggs,  Dee Dee and my uncle Marin gave us clues. My clue was, The Easter Bunny gets sick of climbing up the stairs. I ran as fast as I could. I thought my legs were going to die with the amount of running I did. I found my Easter bag. It had a lot of little tin foiled wrapped, colourful little Easter Eggs in it. My favourite was my big Easter Egg. It was wrapped in red tin foil. I went back into the hall but it was quite late so Jahnyva and I went home.
