A mysterious visitor

One night I was going downstairs to do my homework when I saw a crawly creature.  It was big as a saucer and had eight long legs all covered with dark brown hair.  It looked very scary and threatening.  It was standing just inside the front door as if it was deciding where to go next.

I called my mum, but she was upstairs and said, "Just leave it, it's only a spider".  But when she came down she said, "Oh, that's a tarantula".  So she punched holes in the base of a 1kg margarine tub and put it over the tarantula.

I got on with my homework, but I kept imagining that I heard the margarine tub moving across the floor.  When my dad came back from SEMBEC he took the tarantula across the street to an empty plot to give it a new home.  Now whenever Benjamin plays "The Crawling Spider" on the piano I get a prickly feeling up and down my back.

Inauguration of the Sports Season

I have a new T-shirt.  All my classmates have one.  It is for the football and basketball school season.  On saturday 6th of November I wore it.  Each class marched out round the football field.  At the front a girl carried the shield of her class, and then a girl wearing a traditional dress from a province of Ecuador followed by the rest of the class.

This is how my new t-shirt looks like.

Our teacher, the vice-principal of the school, announced the entrance of each class, the name of the teacher of that class, and which province was represented by the traditional dress.  I enjoyed the different t-shirts for each team, because there were so many different colours, and designs.  After the parade of all the classes, there were some dances, and the first one was the Waka Waka.
