Life Here

I like life in Hawaii.I can now really get all my energy out of me.Life back in New York was cool also and all, I mean like I was in the city why would I want to move away from there.It had a lot of the national monuments, Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building.Plus I had made all my friends there.Why would I want to move?Well guess what,I didn't!My parents made me![leave a comment if you think this is fair or unfair.]I don't think I can complain though,It is a very cool and exotic place.

Words of Wisdom

This new project,words of wisdom, was a lot of hard work. On my team I had Leleaka Anakelea, Lilio Masi, and Loren Weiner. Go check out their blogs and keep updated with them! I think this project was hard because I got paired up with people I didn't know and it taught me a lesson, don't be afraid to work with new people. It also allowed me to know the person we interviewed. We did our interview about Leleaka's uncle who came to Kauai with only a tiny amount of money and a dream, and his dream was to surf. Now he has fulfilled his dream and more, he now has a family and has grand kids. We worked on this a bunch of times during lunch, and once after school. So, as you can see we worked painstakingly hard on this project. Luckily we got the project in on time,well sort of. Our teacher let all the groups,if they weren't finished with their project, work after class.My project is also about taking risks because the man could have just stayed in California in cold water surfing,but no he decided that he was going to take a risk, to go to another state, explore new lands, see what he could do with his life there.Now this is my project:


Five Tips For

I GOT INTO Hiki No!!! Thats right the Hawaiian P.B.S winner for this project was me. [sorry if this sounds a bit like i'm bragging to you, I was just really exited.]I did my project on making good friends. Who I worked with was Raiden Kurisu and Dylan Niide.It was really fun doing this project mainly because I just got to hang around with my friends after each recording.I would have to say the most fun part of it was doing the bloopers just because we were bored.We didn't add the bloopers in to our video though, but they were pretty funny.We first thought we were going to win for the sixth graders in our class and the seventh graders would win.Once we found out that we won we were so exited but we still had to compete with the other winners in G.T or gifted and talented program,since there were more than one G.T class.Now this is our Hiki No winning piece:
