my 6th 100wc : The 8 days in Alcatraz Prison

This is my 6th 100wc and our prompt was what was it like if you were in Alcatraz Prison. Please enjoy. ;)

Date: June 19th. Today I was put into Alcatraz Prison and to be locked up in a cell and I need to break out of this prison?

Date: June 25th. I was having trouble in my cell with a buddy called ‘Bob’ and he was more muscular than me and I need to escape this place... 

Date: June 27th. I have a plan to escape, it has already began. I just dug a hole and I had the feeling that I’ll be shot by a guard nearby, but I found myself on a beautiful beach with a boat that is ready to be hijacked by me!

My WPCA rock climbing recount

It was the 20th of June, when the Year 7/8s in my class and I were getting ready to go to rock climbing and the reason why we were doing this was because it was part of our William Pike challenge. So we had some parents to help us by driving us to the place that is so high - the clouds are 1 metre above you and the place is called Cattlestop Crag.

When we arrived, the temperature was quite chilly and we met Josh and Steven, our instructors and we followed them on a path and when we stopped, they talked about what we are doing and what were our values we are focusing on today. These values are Pride and Resilience. This is important because when you do something and accomplish it, you then have pride to do more challenging versions of the thing you accomplished and have resilience if you fail doing something, don’t give up and try doing it again!

We put our gear on and our gear contained of : a helmet and a harness. I was also confused how to put on my harness. Cattlestop Crag was a big hillside with lots of rocks from the 2011 earthquakes.

I was amazed how good I was at rock climbing that wasn’t at clip n climb. We had a good time climbing and I had pride and resilience because I pushed myself to the limit.  When we were packing up I had a good feeling inside that I liked doing rock climbing and I want to do it next year.

I hope you enjoyed my recount, I had a good time during rock climbing and I hope to do it again next year.

5th 100wc : MineCraft Paradise The Backstory

This is my 5th 100wc, but it's about Minecraft Paradise and it's backstory, I hope you enjoy.

3 years after minecraft was made, Herobrine had escaped the yellow gate prison and ran towards an airplane and went in secretly.  Then when the plane was above the sea, Herobrine made a hole and he pushed passengers out the plane and into the sharks below. 

But one passenger put her four 3yr old babies into her contrabass violin and Herobrine pushed her off, so she let go of her contrabass violin, she was eaten and her kids were alive as they were swept out to sea.  
4 years later... they’ll work alone until they find each other.

My 4th 100wc : The day at work that had a lot of paperwork.

This week, our challenge was to write a conversation.
Enjoy!

On the 22nd of June, there was a guy who lived in peru, his name was Bobby McTune and he was a car guru. He worked at a car shop, but he put too much air in a tire and it went pop.

He got a job and it was at Tait and while he was waiting for a bus, a man next to him said “so you’re the new guy, would like to be mates with me” and Bobby said “Sure, see you tomorrow”. They were mates for a long time and they had fun together.
