Today I had to make a collage for my school project about Autumn. I love being outside so mum agreed to take me to Richmond Park to find some materials. Being there is so fun because it’s so big you can walk for hours without getting back to the beginning. Although all the grass does make it difficult to skateboard.
We've been learning about Valentine's Telegrams in school. Did you know in 1936, over 50,00 Valentine's telegrams had been sent out in all colours and designs? By the time World War 2 hit, the elaborate designs had been scaled back to save paper and ink and a general template was used for all occasions. The telegram did die out eventually with the popularity of the phone.
And then the mobile phone took over... Most of my classmates just send texts with lots of emojis or if you're really lucky, an eCard! That's about as elaborate as it gets.
"I've asked for bass lessons this Christmas. All of the girls in school looked at me funny when I told them I wanted bass lessons. I don't like dresses. They don't go well with skateboarding! Mum said it's good to be different. It used to bother me but now I quite like being not like everyone else..."
Take home your own Maya today in time for Christmas.
Ouch! My knee hurts! Looks like mum's going to have to sew my jeans as the pavement snagged them. I was trying to show Nisha my new skateboard moves and I may have been a little over confident but she 'ooh' and 'ahhed' in the right places so at least she was impressed! I think Nisha never stopped singing today - we certainly got a few funny looks.... but we didn't care. Life's too short not to have fun.
