Miss C doctor appointmant


Bleeding eye (hyphema)

Miss C: My eye has some sort of blood pool do you know what it is ?

Dr M: It looks like hyphema 

Miss C: What are the causes of hyphema ?

Dr M: Well they would either be you injured your eye somehow or severe coughing that would cause a blood vessel to burst

Miss C: Well I have had the flu so that explains a lot because  I have had the flu for a couple days. So is there anything I can do.

Dr M: We can give you fake tears to help make it more comfortable and then what you will have to do is not irritate the eye and then the blood should clear up after a couple weeks.

Miss C: Thanks for that Dr.

Dr M: No problem.

A taxi, an old enemy, and Valentine's Day.



Friday, February 14, 2014 Valentine’s Day

Every year since I left home I have been alone on Valentine’s Day, I’m not even with my friends because they all moved out of the country. The only friend I have is a stray cat that comes to my door every morning to eat. I’m all alone but little did I know it was about to change.

I was on the way back home to my apartment in a taxi and for some reason the driver stopped to pick up someone my old enemy Jacob Wazowski. If you want to know why he is my enemy well lets just say he took a lot away from me like my college scholarship and my chance to win a car and it turns out I was not alone because he lived in the same building as me and also he was my neighbour so the ride back was very awkward we started talking about random stuff like “did you see the game last night” He said.

“I don’t like sport remember”I said back .

then a few more awkward conversations later we were back at the apartment building and for some reason I really didn’t hate him as much for some reason maybe it was a magic taxi or something.

Geoguesser

Geoguesse is a game where you are placed in a random place in the world and you need to guess where you are by clicking the place on the map. After you choose your place click make a guess and the answer will come up and the game will tell you how far away you were.
A good tip is to look for clues like signs or the landscape or sometimes people e.g. if you saw a dessert you could guess America or Africa.

The Wiki Game

In this game you are given a topic and a word you need to find. Then you are sent to a Wikipedia page and what you need to do is find the word in one of the links and thats not as easy as it sounds because on the page there are lots and lots of links that you can look at.
  
Tip: Think outside the box because the word might be gold and the topic could be the U.S.A so you could look at the gold rush of California.

I don't know what happens when you find the word because I have never found it.

Click Card System

My school has come up with a rewards system for the students called click cards. A click card is a card that has 40 squares around the boarder. The rules are that if you are away you do not get a click and if your name is on the board and there is a cross next to it that means you do not get a click, but if your name is on on the board without a cross that means you still get a click on the card.
The rewards: If you have clicked all 40 boxes that means you get a rimu wrist band. If you finish 3 cards you get a badge.

Stars cards:
Star cards are another rewards system where teachers can give you a card that you put your name and room number then you put the card in your house box at the library. First 2 names are drawn at hui for a small prize then at end of term with 1 person from each wins a S.T.A.R.S hoodie then at the end of the year 1 person is drawn out of the whole school and you win a bike.
