I think this smoking advert is shocking as it’s disgusting and it shows what smoking does to your lungs. It’s quite good because at first you think nothing’s wrong then all this black stuff (tar) starts to dribble out of her mouth. Imagine having all of that tar inside your body slowly cloging up your lungs. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N8CGUJcg-CM

On the 6th of March the S1’s and S2’s had the house cross country competition at Pinkie. It was really hard and you felt exhausted after it. At first i was at the back but as I went round i gradually got in front of more and more people. When I got to about half way round it I was 12th so I decided to go faster and see how far I could get and if I could keep it up. So I did this and got to 6th untill near the very end. Then I sprinted as fast as I could and got it into 5th and that is were I finished. I am very pleased with how I done and did not expect to do so well. I got asked if I could go to the cross country tournament in Dunbar but I was unable to attend as I had a football competition at the same time but hopefully I will do this next year and be able to compete in the East Lothian tournament.

The Basketball Final

We always lose against this team
The difference in ability is quite extreme
We got to a final again this season
We cannot lose that’s just treason
I’ve been told to play from the start
Even if we’re losing I musn’t lose heart

The players tip-off at great speed
This team is good we better take heed
One of our players who is 7ft tall
Runs past a player with the ball
With great surprise I look to see
We’ve got a basket oh Yip-eeh!

Across the court I have to run
Too late they’ve scored and now we’re done
We lose the ball again and again
Now the score is two to ten
We’re gona lose I’m sure of that
I wish I wore my lucky hat

It’s the second half here we go
They’ve got the ball oh flippin’ no
One of their players who is really round
Pushed our best player to the ground
The bench is for him because of that
Oh no he sat on the ball and made it flat

The cup is theirs it’s already gone
It will be lifted by their captain John
There’s the buzzer it’s now full time
The score ended at 24 to 9
They lift the cup with a great roar
While we’re walking through the changing room door

Their so good I can’t call them rotters
you have to admire the Harlem Globtrotters

I think smoking is a big health hazard and should be banned. I think the government should 6 months for those who smoke to cut down in and then after that I think they sholud just ban it all together. I think they should do this because it’s damaging everyones health if your around a smoker even if your not smoking. It also makes you really unhealthy and you often have problems breathing.

Cell was a good book with good storyline. My favourite bit was near the very end when they blow everyone up and you have to figure out why Ray killed himself. the thing I didn’t really like about this book was the very begining as nothing happened for a while. I really like the way Stephen King writes and I am looking into reading another one of his books.

In maths we’re learning about rotational symmetry. We had to find find logos that had rotational symmetry in them.

This is my boat I made in C.D.T. It took a couple of weeks but in the end it turned out quite good. This is my first pro-desk top piece of work I have made this year.
