It was a fun day, i really liked it there.

All up it was a good day. I enjoyed myself .

When we got to the top Mr Lynch wanted to take a picture of us for proof we did it.
We finally got back to the bottom and had a bbq.

Mr Lynch swapped with Ms Bruscella and drove the Ute.
It was siiiiiick .

After all that we got to have a lunch break, and we went to crown to have some lunch then we got back to the Expo to come home.

Got photos too .

Avery and i took Jean for a little walk around inside. She loved it.
Also met this lady. I forgot her name, but she was cute.

After all that we got driven to maccas and back to school .

We will also be disgussing pancake day and organising things for it .

This is the first blog of 2010.

On Tuesday the 2nd we had to get into groups and disguss with the year 11′s what we did for pancake day last year and say what things went wrong so we can improve it this year. We decided to have it on the same day as last year on the 23rd of February.

Am looking forward to it. Amy and i want to make the milkshakes again. Hopefully we can get a few more people to help with them. .

I wasn’t able to go that day due to me being sick.

Was a really fun day.

I made the milkshakes. hectic as.. we run out of icecream and milk and everything.

obviously they were good .

Overall we raised $340 selling pancakes and milkshakes.

Then we had to go to some other place (i forgot the name of it) and she showed us some slide show of geelong and shell. we had to do this quiz thing.

Was a really cold day. but it went pretty good.

Blue girls won and purple boys won. So they will get their prize later.

There was a BBQ and milkshakes being made and sold. Amy and me made the milkshakes. it was funnnnnnnnn. There was like chocolate and strawberry flavours.

The  boys did the BBQ.

We made just over $300.

WEW! i thought we did really gooood.

Out of the girls red, gold, mango, and blue got into the finals. And out of the boys gold, purple, ebony, and blue.

Yeah it was alright..

We were just told about controlling cars and all the different tyres. We had to do a quiz.

After all that we got to go outside and some of us got taught how to drive. Was fun as!

The other people got taught how to stop when you really have to..like if someone has stopped in front of you and you hadn’t realised then yeah, all that stuff.

Had a bit of a fun day.

Debbie the tour guiderer was talking to us about some tafe courses and other stuff about jobs or whatever else we needed to know then we got to have a race thing around the Gordan and find all this stuff. My team won .

Then we had to go to the other Institute thing in East Geelong? :s. Weren’t there for long. Steve which was one of the guys working there just showed us around some industry part he works in. Like cars and stuff.

We got dismissed from there. And yeahh.

We organised a Footy Tipping party to announce the winners of getting the highest tips. Then we did a quiz and handed out some prizes and watched some video of all the other schools that went to Kalkee.

Im gonna miss Jean <3.

Was fair fun. Shoulda been there.

ily Jean .

The lady just taught us about recycling and like using electricity appropriately.

We had to catch the bus there. And Mr Lynch said he would take us to maccas but he didnt . We caught the bus back to school and got dismissed.

Was kind of boring because ive been there once before. But went alright.

xx

we caught the train there and back.

we walked around for ages looking at the same thing over and over again. was kinda boring. only wanted about 2 jobs out of the lot coz it was just all unis and stuff. amy and i signed up to some racv thing. we got free lolliepops and a pen and ipod headphones xD.

we had some free time coz there was time left. amy and i went to crown and nearly got lost by trying to find maccas. we lined up for maccas but the line was too massive so we went to kfc instead (:(:.

ilyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

As soon as we got there i took Jean for a walk outside then around upstairs and downstairs inside and stuff.

Mr Lynch said he was gonna pick us up but he didn’t so we started to walk to maccas .

Then yeah, we got back to school and yeeeeeeeeeeeee.

ily xo

Amy and i talked to some residents for ages. Was really good.

I told Jean i would buy her a packet of lollies because she always feels bad that she never has any for us lol. She loves us coming in. She always tells us poems.

After that we got driven to Macca’s, but we wanted KFC so we went and got lunch there. We walked to Kmart to have a little look around then caught bus back to schooooool.

For the girls the lady taught us how to do our makeup. Just the foundation, blush, eyeliner, mascara, eyeshadow and lipstick.

The boys had to shave .

Was pretty good. I didn’t really like the foundation much, looked all blotchy and yuck. But it could’ve been the mirrors.

Before putting on the makeup we had to wash our face with a cleanser and then the toner then the moisturiser.

Next week they’re coming back…well i think they are. And we might be doing something else. Not too sure.

Did the usual. Talking to the residents and did some footy tips.

After that we went to Macca’s for lunch, then looked around in Kmart, and decided to look in Purple Cow and tried on some clothes. We then walked back to school.

Was awesomeeeeee.

We caught bus/vans there. On the way we stopped at a beach and walked for a while. We had to walk over rocks. scariest thing ever !!. Then we had to walk up a massive hill to get to the car.

We then stopped at Lorne, had a lunch break, then went to a look out. Was alright.

We had a little break in Apollo Bay i think.

Then we drove straight to Tanybryn.

That night we went on a night walk and saw some glow worms. Was fun .

The next day everyone went bike riding.

When we got back we went to Macca’s to get some lunch.

To improve the camp i would organise more fun activities to do like that glow worm walk.

She told us how to do resume’s, what to do when you apply for a job and go to an interview.

Tips: Don’t chew gum, slouch, fidget.

Make sure your resume is clear and concise, not too wordy.

In your resume, make sure your most recent employment history is first.

Know what is in your resume and be able to answer any questions.

Make sure your referees are aware they are on your resume, and their details are correct. Eg: phone numbers, positions etc..

Male sure your application letter addresses the job criteria, and really sells you to the employer.

Proof-read your application and resume and ask someone else to look at it, it’s always best to find any spelling or grammer mistakes before the employer does.

If possible hand deliver your application, but ensure your presentation is immaculate.

Make sure all phone messages are professional and checked regularly. Answering machines are essential for employers to contact you!

If applying for a job make a great impression by being punctual, well presented and professional. First impressions always count.

If possible do some research on the company that you are applying for the position with.

If you are successful with an interview, take your original resume and other supporting documents. Eg: references, school, TAFE or University results or qualifications.

Apparently we will be surfing and riding bikes and stuff. But i’m not doing any of that .

We will be having a bbq for tinner maybe, we dont know yet.

Twill be exciting asssss. Hopefully.

LOL the teachers will be sleeping in the corridors so they can watch out for people who will be sneaking around and stuffs.

Oooo and there will be heaters in the cabins. Gooood cause the sleeping bags won’t be warm enough .

Well illies.

Amy and I were walking around talking to some residents and we took Joan for a walk outside.

We walked to maccas and got some lunch, looked in Kmart, then caught the bus back to school .

After that we went to maccas.

We went to maccas for lunch.
