First Day of Grade 9 Camp

                                                                              Tired.
This was to be the word for early morning of the 21st of January.This was the morning of the Grade 9 Camp at Mountain Sanctuary Park. There was a light air of excitement but when I say light I mean drowsy. The heavy bags and uncontrollable sleeping bags didn't exactly help with anyone's mood. We loaded our bags into the bus and then ourselves into the seats of the buses. Then as the wheels on the buses began their circular motion. There was a sudden burst of energy from every person and this made the entire road trip amazing. And the scenery once away from the urban area was enthralling.
Soon as we got to camp the most prevalent feature was the heat and I mean it was scorching. We got off and we were met by several facilitators. After they introduced themselves we played a number of enjoyable icebreakers. Everyone really knew how to laugh at themselves. We were then taught how to pitch a tent and after we had lunch at a beautifully blue pool. And 30 minutes later we went on a hike and it found me tripping over a myriad of rocks as I was staring at the astounding view of the Hartbeespoort Dam and the looming ancient Magaliesburg Mountain. After this we were taught how to cook in a storm cooker. And when it was time to sleep it was time to sleep the view of the stars was intoxicating. So this was the first day of the Grade 9 Camp. Awesome.

Big Hero 6


On the 17th of January I watched what was probably the best animation I have ever seen-and I've watched Monster's University and Inc. The movie follows Hiro Hamada teenaged robotics genius who graduated high school at 13- that's boosts a teenaged guy's self-esteem. Tadashi Hamada-who is also gifted in robotics and Hiro's brother-convinces his brother to apply to the university he works at.
After a series of technological advanced, high resolution animated, excessively coloured events. Such as illegal robot battles, killer microbot swarms, arrogant billionaires, villains in kabuki mask and everything else crazy. You'll find yourself caught up in the animation's comedy, story and astounding technology. I fell in love with this cartoon, maybe a little too easily but I'm glad I did because as I stated before BEST ANIMATION EVER.

Freedom Fighter

His heart beats with a fire
With a power to topple down the empire
His eyes are dark and endless
A void created by the kiss of war
His arm yearns to shape the "V"
His hand wishes to grip the sword
To strike and fight because of the Warrior Accord
His heart knows not of mercy, only justice
His mind controlled by his silver helm
His very being only existing in a dark realm
Death, destruction, screams, rivals, combat what else has he
that fights for justice
And for what cause!
It is a hard life
But one true and honest
For the freedom of all
For the Liberation Of Man
must be held on high
We must not, no cannot deny the cry
We must be Legion
We must be Sword and Shield
We must be The Light In Dark
Our hearts, minds and souls burn with this fire
A warrior's fire
A fire that cannot and must never tire
For we are soldiers of Liberty
We shall release back into the world
Trust, Honesty, Justice and Sincerity
For we are the Champions of Liberty

Discover

Fear
It's okay my child dear
The words we have all heard
The darkness that invades our soul
Cloaking so we can't see what is truly there
Its dark eyes stare into our souls
Looking for the door to enter
We can fight but it is one of difficulty
A force so ancient filled with trickery
It's ways are inhumane
Dirty and rough
It's darkness consumes the light
And until there is nothing left
But there cannot be darkness without light
We are then to discover our true selves
Are we strong or are we weak

It is through fear that we discover our true selves and we find whether you can become strong or will you become weak.

A Love

Be careful when you touch her 
She is a feisty mistress
And try to give her a kiss
She shall burn you
But she is quite true
And she turns our hearts anew
No matter the strength nor the intelligence
When she finds you ready she will find a way to make you love
She will have your soul twisting and turn
Then burning she'll have it burning
When your knees bend and you think she is finished
But you can still feel her but all of you is diminished
And as your knees are bent and your head hung
She will call for you
And oh her voice is so sweet
And there stands a chair and you drag yourself to it and sit

And then she shows you the beauties of life
And after such a

Our Wonderful Country South Africa

I was told that I should write a poem about and I quote 'Our Wonderful Country South Africa'. An interesting subject really with a variety of perceptions. I took the negative perception.

Released from its chains in 1994
Freedom,
could we ask for anymore
But our country has been infested
Guns,drugs rape rape rape.......
Words that push push and push and crush
Do we not all feel dejected
We and our morals are rejected
We stand together hand in hand
Alas corruption rules and shall demand
Our trusts and unions seperated
And a memory of a struggle desecrated
But wait wait please
What of faith, what of hope
Many of us shout to appease
But out words are drowned out
And our voices fill with doubt
We are destroyed and we now burn
And when we douse the flame we are burnt in turn
A paradise we see only in flashes
But perhaps one day we shall rise from the ashes

Grand Theft Auto V

Grand Theft Auto 5 is the best game ever. Rockstar has outdone themselves with this game. Better graphics, bank robberies, endless collectibles and never ending twists and turns. What I love so much about this game is the enhancement of the open world. Now you can interact with the world around you when playing GTA V you can customize your car, buy clothes from different types of shops, cut your hair and the virtual views are amazing. All the three characters are so different but similar in insanity of course Trevor is more insane then anyone in the game but you know how it is when you're psychotic. If you ever play this game  you better make a huge opening in your schedule cause this game will take awhile. Hats off to Rockstar.
