What do you like to do on a Friday afternoon?

On Friday after school my uncle and my auntie picked my 2 brothers, cousin and I from school. My little brother wanted to go home but my uncle said that there was something that we had to do before going home. My brother cried out loud like a dragon coming down to the ground. So my uncle told him that we could go home and drop him off first.

When we got home, my auntie said to us,“Go and change into your clean clothes”. We got changed and put on our shoes and we all rushed to the car like racing cars. Then we locked the car because we were so excited. My auntie drove the car and we were off to get our surprise.

We went to McDonalds to get some ice cream. My uncle and auntie wanted to sign something so we went. Soane, Akesa and I thought that we were going home but we went to Wendy’s. I told my auntie that I haven’t tried Wendy’s before and my auntie said “It comes with free ice cream”. However, I told my uncle that we already ate ice cream at McDonalds so my uncle asked “What do you want beef or chicken?” Soane wanted to have a beef burger and so did my uncle. Akesa and I wanted to have chicken. Wendy was more organised than McDonald’s because their service was a lot faster.

We went to the park and my uncle said that the surprise was that we were getting rabbits. I asked him if they were wild rabbits with red eyes and he answered ‘Yes’. We were so excited because we wanted to catch those rabbits. Rabbits are so cute. We got to the park and we didn’t see any rabbits because there were a lot of dogs and children. After a minute, the children and the dogs left the park. When they left, the rabbits had disappeared as well.   

I had so much fun, it was like I took my first driving lesson.

Getting a chance on a horse!

On Saturday 2nd of August 2014, I woke up and put on a warm hoody. I rushed out to help a friend (police officer) to feed the horses. Her name is Janet. Their food is made up of coconut, dried hay and other stuff. She asked me if I wanted to ride with her on the horse, and I happily said ‘Yes’.

Janet put a really heavy thing over the horses that we were going to ride to make us comfortable during the horseride. I was excited but, I was praying that I would not fall down because I was scared that I might break my bones if I did.

I went really tall, when I got on the horses back. I looked down their was no way near touching the ground with my foot. She only says Don’t worry because if you think if you think you are going to fall down and hurt yourself it will never come true’ and I replied back ‘Thank you for saying that.’

We walk up and down the road and people was staring at us. And I thought that they think we are crazy riding the horse down the street.  I was really scared because the horse might run off and have a accident while I am on its back.  

The horse ride was fantastic and I had so much fun. I said thank you to Janet for allowing me to ride with her.
