In the afternoon at school, we continued the year 9 program. so we rode to Monash Swimming pool, then ran 1 or 2 laps around a lake that was found near Monash. then after that, we rode back to the swimming pool and swam,numbers of laps that each person chose to do in the triathlon. we pretty much enjoyed it, and some of us actually managed to do more laps than, we chose to. it was a beautiful, sunny day to go out for a ride, run and a swim. i managed to swim at least a quarter of the swimming pool. freestyle.i was quiet happy about it. i also think i did well running 2 laps around the lake, that was spectacular. i just kept on telling myself that, nothing was impossible, everything was possible if you just gave it a shot.
i enjoyed today!! it was the best day ever, with everyone feeling proud of them selves.

Looking for Alibrandi
looking for Alibrandy is, a very intriguing book. i like the fact that it's all about Josephine's culture and how she discovers her family's secrete. i enjoyed reading the first few chapters, and i found it quite easy to actually understand. Josephine Alibrandy is an intelligent, young teenager with an Italian background. through the chapters, her character has been developing showing us where it's going to lead us next.it's the best book ever, and i surely recommend it for anyone.

The highlight of the week
My highlight of the week was, swimming and riding with group 4. i am not that well at swimming, but i anted to give it my best shot and to really try my best. Riding a bicycle, is one of my favourite sports, that i like doing. i remember when i was a little girl, my mother bought me a little bike with three wheels on it. and the first time that i got onto that bike, i started paddling by myself, without any one's help. we'll that was quite an experience, learning to ride a bicycle by myself.
back at my old school, we did a bike ride competition, and at that time i wasn't confident with my bike yet. so i took a few lessons before the competition. i wasn't expecting myself to come in the first place , second or the third place.i was expecting myself to come in the 15Th place. by the time the competition got closer, i was feeling afraid, that i wouldn't even make it at the beginning. so i said to myself, that i had the strength and that i had to believe in myself. thinking positively then negatively.
