The new Einstein!!!


Yes we all know Einstein as the genius with the weird hair-do.
But a new Einstein has risen and proved to be a superstar! No, the new Einstein isn't a guy with a wacky do. The new Einstein isn't human, in fact, she a girl!
Einstein is an african grey parrot.
African grey parrots are one of the smartest parrots in the world. There are heaps of other famous African Greys, but Einstein would be the most remarkable! To see Einstein during one of her shows, go to this site:

Gymstrada 4ever!!!!!!!!


As some of you may have heard, Maniac me, Miss Candy, Spud, Kittykat and I have started a gymstrada rouine. We will be representing Peachgrove at the Waikato Inter-Intermediate Gymnastics competition next year.
What is Gymstrada? Well it is a kinda gym-dance thingy performed by a group of gymnast with background music. It is a challenging and fun sport in which teamwork, timing and synchronized-gym/dancing is the key.

The video I reccomend you to watch is a video about rhythmic gymnastics. The people in the video have probably trained for so many hours each day to be that good!!!
Gymstrada people:
We don't have to do everything you see in the video, but we should watch the parts in the middle where they show you groups doing rhythmic together. This could make us even better and we could win the competition again like we have for 3 or so years!

The Video:

Mermaids




Ever since watching The Little Mermaid a few weeks ago, I've had a fantasy about mermaids, and whether they really exist.
The Mermaid is a legendary aquatic creature with the head and torso of a female and the tail of a fish.
Mermaids would sometimes sing to sailors and distract them until they eventually walk off deck or cause shipwrecks.
In some cases it is said that they drown the men while trying to rescue them. They are also said to take them down to their underwater kingdoms.

Holidays


Hello Everyone!
It' been a long time since I've added a new post.
Anyway, I hope your holidays are going fine, mine are going ok.
I've been pet-sitting a guinea pig and labouring over my Ancient Egyptian Inquiry to make it look nice. I've also been pondering over a topic for my speech.
Oh and I've got a really bad Hayfever
Um, and that's about it...
... Yeah

So are the holidays treating you?

Inter-Intermediate Gymnastics



On Tuesday, I Mscandy and Funniebunnies went to the Hamilton Inter-intermediate Gymnastics competition.
We had great fun doing our routines on each apparatus (beam, floor and vault).
I got a 7.0 for my vault, a 7.8 for my floor and a 9.4 for my beam.
Unfortunately, the Peachgrove team came sixth, which is not too bad.
The only person who won a placing out of the nine of us was Stacy, who went to the world-wide gymnastics competition just before we had the competition here.
If you would like to consider gymnastics as a sport, you can join next year.
gymnastics is a sport of agility and strength. It is also heap and Heaps of fun!!!
The pictures above are of Nadia Comaneci.
She is the first female gymnast to get perfect scores for all her apparatuses.
The first photo was taken with her performing on the beam. The second is one of her performing on the bars.

Riddles- On Everyone's Face

Derren Brown-Trick of the Mind


Derren Brown is a British magician/hypnotist who can make so many outstanding things happen!
I watched one of his shows last night, It is called Trick of the Mind and is shown on channel One. In the show i watched, he did something very extrodinary. He took 32 dancrs, male and female, to an old hall. The halll is very famous and very old. He was going to let the dancers witness something odd that was witnessed since the room opened. He got the dancers to get into groups of 4, and stand all around the table. Derren told the dancers to look into the center of the wooden table and visualise a life force inside it. After a minute or so, he said, " Quickly! Put your hands on the table!" The dancers did as they were told. " Now don't move. Take deep breaths and focuse on the center of the table. Feel the life force. You will witness something very weird. It will feel odd, but just go along with it."
I was shocked. After another minute or so, The tables started to move. One by one they started spinning, faster and faster. It was like seeing a group of dancing tables! No-one pushed the tables and the tables were ordinary wooden antiques. It was as if the dancers gave an inanimate object life, give the tables their own power of dancing. The hall is one of the only places this phenomenon could happen. I was happy I saw it.
If you want to see some more of Derren Brown's tricks, then go to this address:

H.A.N.D.S.


As most may know, Kittykat and I have started H.A.N.D.S, a club to share interest in animals. We have a club council and members will switch every now and then so people have a chance to experience leadership. We have a blog for our webpage and will be doing various things throughout the year (or how long HANDS lasts!). You will be able to take part in organising fundraisers, presenting the SPCA with the funded money (thanks to rm5!) and heaps more. You even get your own badge! As you do more for the club, you get chances to participate in more things. We also have a MOTF (member of the fortnight) system. People who do well get acknowledged and receive prizes! There will be an randomly selected animal to study on every week. It is completly optional, but we encourage you to do it!
Remember that even though Kittykat and I are the mangers of this club and wanted to be treated with a teeny, weeny bit of respect now and then, we still want you to treat us as if we were fellow students too! We just want to give animal loving people something a little extra-special:)
