At four pm on Friday, we went to the motel from my house. We needed to tell the builders where the lights needed to be placed. I went into our motel room and quickly got ready because my dance competition was at six pm.
After I got ready, my mum and I went to pick up my dad from the train station. When we reached the train station, I saw my dad coming out from the train and coming towards us. I felt happy because my dad was also coming to the competition.
After that, we went to Auckland Boy's Grammar and that's the place where I was going to have my competition. When we reached Auckland Boy's Grammar, I was amazed because it was so big and all the building were white.
After we went inside the school hall, a man told us that we needed to pay an entrance fee to go in the hall. My dad didn't have any money so he went to look for a dairy to get some cash out. It took him very long to get to the dairy because he walked instead of taking the car because he didn't want anyone to take our parking.
Within three hours hours, my dad came back with some money and I went down to the boy's dressing room, to wait until our dance starts.
While we were waiting, I played truth or dare with my dance group. It was fun because the game on the I pad called out our names and gives us a choice between truth or dare. I kept on getting dares.
Soon after, my dance teacher came and said that we need to get ready to go on the stage. When we went on stage, everyone clapped and called out our group's name which was called Carter chan .
During the dance, I was a bit nervous but I was having fun at the same time. In the last set of the dance, everyone was shouting and screaming so loud that we couldn't hear the music.
After the dance, the judge came and told us the results. She said that we came second and I went on stage to represent my dance group when they made the announcement. After that, we went home and it was nine o'clock. I had a very long sleep.
I enjoyed the competition and I hope that we can do much better in the next competition.

On Sunday, I woke up on a bright sunny morning and went to the closet to pick what I want to wear. I wore an Adventure time jumper, a pair of nice looking jeans and went to the living room.
My mum called me and said, "Today we are going to your cousin's house and then your auntie's house." I replied, "Okay."
After the car was ready, we hopped into our little car and went really far to the West Harbour. It was so far that it felt like we were on a plane going to Australia.
When we reached my cousin's house, I saw some pixar dominoes and there were a lot of them. There was also a domino marble maze, a domino bridge and a domino stair case.
We played with the dominoes for a long time because we made some mazes. Then my dad called for us to go to our car so we can go to our auntie's house. When we arrived, I saw my baby cousin dancing by the television. He danced a lot and laughed a lot as well.
After two hours I played some games on my computer including ROBLOX. In ROBLOX, I played freeze tag. This is a game where are a huge minion and if you touch other people, they freeze and turn into ice.
Within 20 minutes, we went home so I could get some sleep and have some antibiotics.
I enjoyed seeing my baby cousin and watching him dance. I hope when he grows up, he would still dance for us.

At six o'clock on Sunday afternoon, my cousins, auntie and uncle came to our motel room to have dinner with us. First my cousin and I traded some dominoes with each other. I got a character from the movie Walle, her name was Eve and my cousin got a character from Monsters INC and his name was Sulley.
After that, we webt into my bedroom to set up the dominoes with a marble maze. Then we pushed the 49 dominoes in it to create a Koru.
After that we played with my guns and pretended to be police men, but it was a bit boring, so we ended up watching funny videos of Mr. Bean dancing. That was funny but then my baby cousin started to cry because he was scared of Mr. Bean.
Next we had dinner. We had fish and chips with yummy tomato sauce. Finally, we went back to our room and we danced to raining tacos. It is a song about a boy singing about a day that it was raining tacos.
Before long, it was time for my cousins to go home. After they left, we went to the kitchen to have something to drink before we went to bed.
Within 20 minutes, we were all tucked in our beds ready to drift off after the long, fun day.
I really enjoyed the day that my cousins came over. I hope our house would be built soon so that we can have more space to play hide and seek and tag.
