I Don't Want To Leave D:




Day 5 ( Last Day )

Woah! I woke up feeling feverish. I decided to have a nice cold shower. After cleaning myself up, I skipped down the staircase and greeted everyone in the kitchen as I walked pass them. I stepped foot outside to find myself in tears. I remembered why I was in tears as it was the last day here. I would miss this place. My sister walked towards me and said that this was our last day and we needed to pack our bags. She even added that we were leaving after lunch. That made me cry even more. I ate my breakfast and sat down by the poolside. I am going to miss this place. I thought to myself whether we could come back too. All too soon, it was lunch. I decided to skip lunch and enjoy this place since we could eat on the plane. I decided for a jog around first. While jogging, I started to cry again. My Mum called me to come and get everything before we left. I followed her intructions until it was time to go. My dad got the luggages and started the car up. I cried and said a goodbye to everyone for helping me. Then I left for the airport. As I stared out of the car's window watching everything go by, my Mother asked me whether I was okay. I blinked back my tears and said fine. I also asked her whether we could come back again. She promised me she would as we got of the car. My family hugged my Dad goodbye as we left for the plane. I really hoped we could come back as it was very fun.

Cool! I'm Gonna Be In Here Then I Swim!

Day 4

Ah! I woke up with a startle. Bad dream, going to be okay. I repeated that a thousand times before I got out of bed. I seemed like my family was getting out of bed too. I waited for my turn to clean up. As usual, I walked down the staircase and through the kitchen. I greeted everyone and they greeted me back. Since my Dad ordered a big breakfast, I decided to go for a jog around the place to see how work was going on. I put on my track shoes and headed onto the road. I jogged and jogged. When I came back, only some dishes were finished. My family were not eating yet so I decided to have a run instead. I ran and ran until I got back to see all the dishes neatly placed on the table.
I ate with them and walked around the restaurant. Something caught my eye as I was walking. It was the Gym! It was done and people were exercising in it. I felt so happy I went to play inside. I got tired so I went into the restaurant to rest. All to soon while playing some pool and table tennis, I went for lunch. As we felt hot, we went to get our swimsuits to swim in the pool. I started with the baby pool first. When I finished getting my whole body wet, I dived into the adult pool. Splash! Other children who were were waiting to go into the pool got drenched by me.
I got up to the surface and took at deep breath. So fresh. Soon, nightfall came. We got out of the pool and ate our dinner by the poolside. After that, we went to shower. We showered in the bath tub and got the floor wet all over. We got changed, soaked our costumes and went to sleep. My Dad and Mum were watching TV and then they slept. I hoped I could stay here forever, but tomorrow, we were leaving. So I planned to play as much as I could here.

I Don't Think I'm Swimming Today!




Day 3




I woke up feeling dizzy after yesterday's swim. I sat up and walked to the bathroom to fix up myself. Seeing no one in sight, I thought to myself whether they were awake. I walked down the staircase and entered the kitchen. Everyone greeted me and I greeted them back.Once I stepped outside my whole family was in the resturaunt greeting me. I sat down and greeted them back. What was with everyone and greetings today? I looked around to find big carboxes stacked in a neat row. To my curiosity, I asked my Dad what was in the boxes. He said that if we followed Mum somewhere, they would be done in a jiffy. So everyone followed Mum and left Dad and the workes to do the job. Once we came back, in front of me stood a tabletennis table, two pool tables and a dartboard. I was so amazed with how quick they could do it so I tried the pool table first. Playing pool on the table was fun but soon it was lunch. We ate sandwhiches and noodles and we drank apple juice, orange juice and pineapple juice. I continued playing but it was so hot I decided to play in the water. I played until five. Once I got out of the water. I ran back into the room. I showered, got changed and ate lobster, fish and crab. I felt happy when I went to sleep and wondered if I could still play the games tomorrow.

Why Didn't You Wake Me Up?!

Day 2

What! I woke up with a blast. That has got to be the scariest nightmare in my life. When I awoke, it was ten in the morning. I sat up from the mattress and looked around. No one in sight. They must have woken up. I woke up, brushed my teeth, washed my face and changed. I thought to myself whether to get a drink or not. I walked calmly down the stairs and entered the kitchen. When I just took one step and touched the restaurant floor, I saw my Dad shouting into the phone. I took a step back and peeked behind the counter As I heard him shout into the phone, it stopped. I hid behind the counter, hyperventilating. Footsteps, Oh no! He found me. All too soon, the footsteps became fainter and fainter. Then there was a loud screeching noise. I stood up quickly and sat on the bar chairs. While ordering a cup of apple juice, the screeching noise came again. I looked around to see where the noise was coming from. But soon, my eyes saw a brand new fish tank with fishes and decorative things inside. When the waitress saw where I was looking, she took me in broken English that they did the fish tank very early in the morning. I was still angry but pleased with the explanation. But I was still curios about the noise, so I hurriedly drank to see what was going on. To my surprise, my Dad was building a Gym under my mother's name. I was so shocked, I stared in awe. My father saw my mouth open and walked over asking if I was okay. I told him i was just shocked, surprised and happy. Soon, my Dad's personal assistance came. She brought her kids along as well. My siblings and I came and played with them. Suddenly, a loud noise came by. It lasted for about fifteen minutes.We came over to see what as going on. Dad and Mum were carrying a cardboard filled with things we didn't know. We were curios so we went to investigate. As we opened the box, we found it loaded with toys so we dig and dig to find our favorite toys. We found water guns, cooking toys, buckets and spades and many more. We begged our parents to play in the swimming pool and they agreed. We changed and got ready to plunge in. Some did cannonballs, some did dives and some did dips. We played and played until it was seven and ate dinner together. It was a long day but we survived. Once again, we ate lobster and fried rice. Then we played a little more and my Dad's assistant brought her kids home and we went to our room to read books, write in dairies and sleep. I wish that tomorrow would be even more exciting.

Day 1




My first holiday was to Timor Leste. Once I got off the plane, I walked slowly to get my bags with my family. My father had a business in Timor. He was also the boss. Once I got checked, everything was in place. As we walked out, I saw the whole place filled with Timoreste. I found my Dad and hugged him tightly as he brought us to our new home. As soon as we arrived at the Palm Spring Estate (PSE), All I saw was a beautiful pool waiting for me to plunge in. I asked Dad and Mum wether I could open the luggage and get changed into my swim suit. Dad didn't reply so Mum said I first have some snacks before I get changed and plunge in. I ate hastily and got food all around my mouth. I got up from my seat and rushed to the toilet to clean myself up. Then I rushed upstairs to get to the room, but I had to get across the kitchen to get to the stairs. But to my surprise, they were still cleaning and putting some furniture. So I went into another room to get changed. I ran down with some clothes over my swimsuit and quickly took them off. I went into the pool. Cannonball! Splash went the water. I got up to the surface and laughed. It was so fun. I swimmed with my brother, small sister. My bigger sister was reading a book by the poolside.

By the time we finished swimming, it was 5.00pm. I groaned as it was time to go shower and eat dinner. Dinner was lavishing and nice. There was lobster and other dishes. After finishing the food, the waitress took the plates to the kitchen and washed them clean, while my bigger sister were lying down on the floor gazing up at the stars, my brother, younger sister and me were in the room which was done already. We were reading books and cracking jokes. Finally, it was time to sleep. As I was snuggled up in bed, I thought of what I would be doing tomorrow and what other fun things I would do.
