From my data I can see that my fitness is increasing. In the first week of my fitness progress I started off pretty well with four laps then in the following week I started to slow down to three laps.In the third week my laps increased to five laps and that was the best one I have done.My fitness goal is to run more than 5 or 6 laps .

My Beautiful Place
Far beyond the exhausted sun... a paradise comes alive! The sun hulas across the island to capture the essence of paradise.
Mysterious, rare creatures dart around the island desperately, looking for anything crunchy to munch on. Water trickles down the water fall, like tears collapsing onto a pillow of candy floss. Light winds swoop the leaves off their feet and dance under the banana-shaped sun.
An immense flavour oozes between my teeth tempting me to dream. A mountain of divine raspberry fruit, melts blissfully in my mouth. What a sweet taste! Tears of white chocolate dive down dramatically from the blank blue sky shimmering like diamonds under the oven-like sun . Beautiful blue candy floss bounces in between brazillian butterflies causing them to splutter in surprise.
An exotic, fragrant smell of banana leaves fizz under my nose like fireworks. Sea water pushes small parcels of their strong smell into the weak air. The smell of a Samoan umu flutters across the island. Tongan meals being prepared by gum gum bears are already nearly running out. The smell of a Maori hangi hangs above my head making me lick my lips.
My eyes flutter with excitement as coconuts fall down like crazy.My veins giggle with excitement. Frosty air dances like a bunch of hooligans. Velvet pieces of cake served into my hands by grape-coloured ice creams.
White polar bears sing goodnight. Day throws in night as if controlled by a flick of a switch.Fire cackles aways into the night.
Under the moon light glow, lays my paradise...sound asleep.

Piri Weepu Description
It was windy as I looked out from the stadium to see Piri Weepu... Slapping his arms here and there rapidly. My mother sighs, pointing out at my father “Ah, look at how big he’s grown. Right down from when he was a little bub in 1983, but look at him now, I’ll bet he’ll even invade another pass exactly the same when he was a young boy.”
Bring it on his eyes seemed to say as he was doing the pukuna, intimidating the other team. “It’s time for Mr Piri Weepu to kick off the rugby world cup with his fascinating kick! oh yeah!” Says the commentator quickly, “Piri Weepu kicks off the striped ball!...He scores!! hallelujah! Thank you Lord! God bless Piri Weepu!” Yells the reporter from France jumping up and down like a crazy monkey!
Piri Weepu stretches his arm out to bulldoze all the other players out of his way sprinting hardcore to the try line. Doing it for his baby girl(true fact). Boy is he fast he must have been training so hard! I think he deserved to be here!
His tattoo guiding him along the side line. He dives under the rugby post. Piri stands up as fast as the wind, muscles pumping in excitement. His black eyes shining in the with pride, he took a quick glance at the cup(trophy). One more try... and they win.
His black hair stood up on all edges of his head as he saw another player running madly towards the try line! Piri Weepu just missed by being hit by another Rugby athlete. He moves as fast as a bullet towards the man and ... tackles him. He snatches the ball and runs toward his try line. Just one more metre and he’s finished . Score ! He made it! Yes!! Yes!!
The reason why this moment is special is how fast the pride in him sprawled quickly across his body. Ah... that was a special moment.

Buddy Writing - Welcoming Tonga
As I drove into the airport, I was shocked to see a sea of red,white and brown.There were people singing and dancing with pride.I could see cameras clicking away happily,the sound of laughter ringing in my ears.I started to cover my eyes,as Tongans
rushing past me to get to the front so they could see the rugby players,people are jumping up and down with excitement shouting “GO TONGA!”
I tried pushing my way through the crowd but I couldn't find my way through! I heard the Tongans screaming as loud as possible. I was stunned. Some of the the Tongan rugby players were marching onto the stage. Smiles were printed in their faces. They were exhausted from the flight.
They were tall and looked very strong. They were happy to represent their country . Although they were in a different country they still had the support . The Tongan rugby team performed an enthusiastic haka tau for their supporters and their country .
Everyone was exhausted, it’s because they had been waiting for hours in the boiling weather,for this .
