Competition time!

On Sunday 26 of August, I went to the Dell stadium to compete in an athletic competition. My events were high jump and the 100m sprint.

This was the first time I had done high jump in a competition, ever! I managed to jump 1metre 20, not bad for a first attempt. Moving on to the 100 m sprint, I have competed in many sprints, so I was looking forward to this event. I got off to a good start but for some annoying reason I slowed down, so this wasn't my best race.

My personal best in the 100 metres so far is 15.56 seconds, which I ran at Tipton on August 17th 2018. With determination and practice, I'm hoping to run 100 metres in 15 seconds within the next few months.

Dubai!!

Wow, what a week I’ve had. On Sunday the 28th of October, I left England for a holiday to Dubai.

It was a seven-hour flight and Emirates are a fabulous airline. https://www.emirates.com The food was great, the movies were great, the staff were very friendly and the female flight attendants wore a very interesting looking hat.

We got a taxi to our hotel, we were staying in the Rove Hotel Downtown. https://www.rovehotels.com/hotel/rove-downtown/ The hotel was really nice and modern. We settled in our rooms, unpacked some of our things and went across the road to explore the Dubai Mall. The mall was huge, we had a quick l

Happy Christmas!

At last the Christmas holidays are finally here. My school broke up a week before most schools so I got 3 weeks off. YIPEE!!! I have now completed all my Christmas shopping. My Aunty Kizzy came from London to spend the Christmas holiday with us. On Christmas Eve we made a gingerbread house that she had brought. For my Christmas dinner, I had turkey, beef, mash potatoes and purple cabbage. It was delicious and as for the drinks they were refreshing. For dessert, I had some of the gingerbread house that my aunt and I had made (or at least decorated). It tasted almost as good as it looked! My uncle and cousins came round to see us in the evening; this was great because I don’t get to see them that often. We tried playing a game of hide and seek upstairs – not the best idea! After a great Christmas day and evening, I ended up going to bed really late. As for presents, my mom got me some clothes and folders to help me or
