My Closest Family Member

My closest family member would have to be my mum because my sister is always in her room and she is closer to my brother than me, so I hang out with mum and we do sewing and on some occasions we go down to the beach when the others aren’t around. We go to Blue Holes and play with the little fish that are everywhere in the little pools and there are heaps of shells to.

Mum and I are very similar; we used to make clothes for my teddy but now not so much, the best work we ever did was a wedding dress (it was white with white lace) and bridesmaids dresses (blue with black lace) they were for Jazmin’s and my teddy. The dresses were fitted especially to fit them, the teddy’s looked so cute and the dresses were even cuter than the teddy’s so put the two together and you get extreme cuteness. Jazmin loved the dress that mum, Jazmin and I made.   OK mainly mum made it but Jazz and I helped, a bit.

Myself and mum also have photography in common . We always called her Miss Wong because she always went wongiing around but now I’m mini Wong because I’m getting in to photography and I just have to learn how to keep the camera still.  I have the talent to take a photo.  I have taken a beautiful picture of an old rusted windmill in the perfect light. The windmill has fallen and was on the ground. I took the picture at Carrange (somewhere in between Tarmilar and Steep Point)

Memory :)

One day Luwana and I entered a dance competition (a duo). We had trained for hours a day, we had a very casual song ‘best day of my life’ it is the best song to choreograph to, well that’s what I thought.

It was the day of the competition we were so nervous because we had to go up against Grace and Aria, Katie and Hannah and another group Esprey and ruby. Everyone was so pretty but really didn’t match, we were the only ones that looked exactly the same, we wore a pink and purple tutu, black shirt with a horse printed on the front in pink, also black leggings and our hair was tightly done up in a bun with a cute pink and purple thing that you would usually place on a present that was in our hair. Our whole outfit looked amazing, I loved it. We thought we had no chance against Katie or Hannah because they are amazing dancers and Hannah is the daughter of the dance teacher.

It was time for the duos presentations Katie and Hannah came in 3rd Grace and Aria came 2nd Esprey and ruby were 4th and finally we came ahead of the rest 1st OMG we came 1st we got GOLD EVERY ONE, WE GOT GOLD! We don’t get that very often, well because we don’t normally enter any comps. It was the best feeling to know that we could do it. Getting a gold is excellent literally but it is important to remember others feelings and not to gloat, I think I forgot that when we had gotten the GOLD medal. Knowing that we can do well, good choreography and dance skills is only one part of it; it was also the smiling (facial expressions) and enthusiasm that got us a higher score.

At the end Miss Leo was giving out the class awards e.g. jazz, tap, tiny tots and more classes included. I was in jazz (modern) and we were all discussing who we thought would get it and of course no one thought of me well that’s what I thought, so while everyone else was whispering I was looking straight at Mel and waiting, waiting for her to say my or someone else’s name I crossed my fingers and kept on staring straight at Mel. And guess what she said “Carlee” OMG” I couldn’t believe it, well I could I was a really good student for Mel and always on time and tried my hardest to stand out. I love that trophy and I still have it along with the gold medal. My heart was pounding for quite a while, after I sat back down my heart calmed and I think my heart had stopped while I was up there because I could not feel my arms or legs. I went home jumping up and down the excitement never did go away.
