anything

As an assignment we were asked to write a ‘Family Story’.  Using a snip of information from our parents, grandparetns etc .. and turning it into a piece of writing. Instead i decided to write about the death of my Tom, My grandpa. This shows both sides, both feelings between myself and him. I tried really hard to get inside of his head and heart. Here is a snippet of my story , unfortunately i can’t show it all as it is quite personall.

That was the last time I ever saw my little grand daughter. She will never know the happiness she brought into my life and the strength it took her to come  to me one last time. I smiled as I took my one last breath.

 He died that night.

I never understood how such a strong person could just give up on everything. Maybe it took more courage to actually let go, rather then to hold on.I had never felt so close to someone before and then just had them taken away.

 My last reminder of him as standing on the edge, looking down into a big hole, dropping my rose and saying my one last goodbye.

OMG on Thursday i went down to Phillip Island with school to go surfing!! i was so excited.. i went and bought my new hot pink bathers and i was all ready. That morning it was all sunny and hot, but by the time we were ready to leave, it was raining =( and we thought the day was going to be cancelled but thankfully it wasnt =D .. It felt as if it took us forever to get there, my bum went numb on the bus hehe. Aw the bus driver was so mean he wouldn’t even let us take our bags on there =( grrr..  neway we finally got there, went down to the beach and watched the boys surfing for abit.

Then it was our turn, we went and got our wet suits and boards n headed down to the deserted beach. We got abit of a talk about how beaches work and about rips n stuff and then we started getting into action, having a warmup stretch. We splitted up into 5 groups! First we were told how to body surf [ doing the arch thing ]. And off we were into the water. We got in there first. I paddled out and saw that there was no waves coming so i just stat patiently on my board waiting for my friends to come out. All of a sudden my friend goes ” UMM RACH TURN AROUND” and i did and there was the biggest wave coming right up behind me!!! I quickly jumped down and started paddellling, and as this was the first wave i was taking i had no idea what to expect. I went flying over the heads of two of my frendss =b it was so funny, but they weere okk! so it was good.

 After awhile we went back onto the beach again, this time learning how to stand up. I found this extremely easy to do and couldn’t wait to actually get out there and try it out. The second wave i took I STOOD UP.. =D i was so proud lol.. We spent what seemed like hours out there just all trying to catch waves, before it was time to go home. We went and got changed, grabbed some hot food and said our goobyes. It was the best excursion we had ever gone on!!

 As s00n as i got home the first thing i asked mum was if we could go back down in the holidays so we are = D i canttt wait!! Love rachiii

LALA can`t get this song outa my head, it`s my new OBSESSION!

Everytime We Touch – Cascada
I still hear your voice, when you sleep next to me.
I still feel your touch in my dreams.
Forgive me my weakness, but I don’t know why.
Without you it’s hard to survive.

Your arms are my castle, your heart is my sky.
They wipe away tears that I cry.
The good and the bad times, we’ve been through them all.
You make me rise when I fall.
