New Beginnings

WOW! What a week, where do I begin?
So this week I started high school.  I was a bit nervous on the first day, but it turned out to be great, I had nothing to worry about.

The school was huge, the teachers were nice and I made quite a few new friends. So we found out how they do things at my new school and believe me they are very strict. I got a dentition on my first day 😲 for not having a scientific calculator, not to worry though, mum sorted them out 😉.
At school we have ’family lunch’ which is just lunch time really, we get to spend time with our friends and school staff and have a good chat.  Overall I had a good first week at my new school and I hope this is the start of many good weeks to come.
Well my week did not end there, as it's my birthday on Sunday, I had a party on Friday after school.
I was joined by a few of my friends and my cousins at tenpin bowling https://www.tenpin.co.uk/our-locations/dudley/ This is where I had my totally awesome bowling party.  The party was fun and my bowling skills are pretty good, even if I do say so myself.  We enjoyed great food, slushies and ice cream.  Unfortunately, I didn’t win but I came an impressive 3rd place.  I will definitely do better next time.

Oh, I almost forgot to mention, I was also given my very own bowling pin!

Braces!

Hey guys, It’s your girl TJC here and today I have some good news and bad news. The bad news is that I have to get four of my teeth extracted, this is because I have too many teeth in my mouth 😩.  So after I get my teeth extracted I am going to have braces fitted. I will have my retainers fitted on the 4 th of March 2019.   I have been on the waiting list for a very long time - about two years, so I’m happy to get the process started.  The good news is that my school has given me a Spring challenge. It’s a bunch of activities that have to be completed by the Easter half term break. We get to choose three activities. I will talk you through the three that I have chosen.  The three that I will be doing are: read an autobiography about someone who inspires me, the second one is to cook an entire meal for the family and the third one is to take some clothes to a clothes bank. The inspirational autobiography I have chosen to read is entitled “Hope in ...

congratulations

I know it's been a while but I've been busy settling into high school. Guess what guys? I've finally collected my grade one certificate. Hard work and dedication = Distinction! I've started guitar lessons at school with a guy called Tom, so far so good, hopefully, I'm on my way to a grade 2 distinction next year.  As long as I continue to practise, practise, practise as my mum keeps telling me. On Thursday my mom and I went to The Beefeater on Hagley Road  https://www.beefeater.co.uk/steak-restaurant/West-Midlands/Duck-Edgbaston.html I was so hungry I FORGOT to take a picture but here's a little photo of my plate, when I remembered to take a picture.  I had a chicken burger, chips and corn on the cob, which was delicious and for dessert, I had pancakes, sorry again, but it was so yummy I forgot to take a picture. On Friday I went to the Midlands Arts Centre in Edgbaston  https://macbirmingham.co.uk/courses  I was there to take...

Dubai!!

Wow, what a week I’ve had. On Sunday the 28th of October, I left England for a holiday to Dubai. My mother, God Mother, God sister – Maya and my aunty, all met at Heathrow Airport, we were due to fly from Heathrow with Emirates airline all the way 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. My mom said it was one of the best flights she’s ever been on. We finally landed in Dubai, once we cleared customers and collected our luggage we made our way outside and boy was it hot, yay! 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 ...
