IT'S ALL ABOUT ME....

Hi my name is Courtney. In my family there is my Dad, my Mum, my brother and myself. I have a dog called Sparky, a cat called socks, and a canary called Tweety. We also have lots of fish both tropical that live in tanks inside and coldwater fish which live in ponds outside. I have three penfriends. I went into my guides website and joined the pen pal club. Then one day I got al etter from Amy in ENGLAND saying that she wanted to be my penfriend. Ever since then we have been writing to each other. Last year I joing the KCC (Kiwi CVonservation Club) and I got another two pendriends. Lauren is from WHANGAPAROA and Anna is from Kamo,WHANGAREI. We enjoy writing to each other frequently. As you have seen on our home page we are study poetry. With our poetry we have been wiriting similies and metaphors eg:- Sparky you fur is a carpet of wire. A metaphor is a similie without like or are being used.

For his party he wanted it to be an army party, so he got one. Klynton got into his army outfit and then he put face paint on and he made it look like an army man in the war. When Klynton's friends started to arrive Klynton gave all of his friends a doggie tag and my mum put some face paint on their faces if they want some on.and if they didn't want any they just went off and played with Klynton. After all of Klynton's friends were here at the birthday party we all played tug of war. When we started to play tug of war we had to play 3 rounds and we played girls against boys BUT the girls won. After we played tug of war we played spin the grinade and then we had afternoon tea and then Klynton's friends went home and Klynton said " This is the best party I ever had."That day was fun to me and Klynton. <span style="COLOR: rgb(3,0,255)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(56,18,222)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(44,10,235)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(75,21,244)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(44,11,249)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(53,6,249)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(169,55,147)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(204,25,178)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(241,39,197)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(235,36,195)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(47,242,249)"><span style="COLOR: rgb(243,78,249)">
