The Blob

The Blob
Click! Click! My life jacket and light blue helmet were on. Slowly I walked up the staircase. As soon as I reached the top I started to re-think my choice of going on the blob but my overall goal at Waimarino was to have a go on all of the activities that I could, so I prepared myself for my turn.

I was happy walking away, feeling proud and satisfied.

I dropped to the floor and reached under my bed. I pulled out a key and that’s all that I left with. I dashed back up to the attic, grabbed the dairy and unlocked it. Suddenly everything came back to me. The first thing I remembered was how for a few hours there was a truce and if I remembered correctly, it was on… Christmas? We all played soccer and it was super fun. I also remembered all the names of the people who stood by my side all the way through the devastating war. After about two hours of happy and horrible memories, I decided to put the book away. After all of this I thought it might be the right time to
