Next year the Year 8s from schools like The Gardens School, Ranwick and Alfriston etc.
This year for me was a good year. Being a year 9 had its ups and downs. But overall it was a good year making new friends.
TIP#1
Your tutor class is a very important part of your time in School. Having a good strong friendship with people in your tutor and your tutor teacher. Tutor time is a great way to make new friends, also the your tutor teacher is one of the teachers who can help almost through anything.
TIP#2
Know your seniors:
Seniors have been in this school for a very long time and probably know the school by heart. Seniors are extrememly willing to help and always ready to show you around, and always having seniors watching over you is always a good thing, its like having a big brother.
TIP#3
Be yourself !
Always be yourself, Your were born an original, dont die a copy. No one likes fakes, so just be yourself. You will have more fun in year 9 if you do what you wanna do and not get pressured to what dont want to do its more important that you experience your year the way you want it to .

Dear Mr Tu's Singsam
This week we were instructed by our English Teacher to formally write a letter to one of our teachers, I chose you because of your talent and overall interest in basketball and also I admire your knowledge in mathematics.
This year my understanding in mathematics has expanded due to your teaching. Topics like Algebra, Probability and etc. Also your happy and friendly attitude has been a good model for other teachers to follow. Your love and interest in basketball is really interesting , its not common for mathematicians to have the knowledge that you posses for the game of basketball.
In conclusion you have been one of the most interesting teachers I've had your work ethic and commitment to your work has rubbed on me.
Sincerely, Kenny Zuniga

Holidays
The best part of my holidays was when i went to the All Blacks parade. Seeing the heroes of the world cup and celebrating with them was really exhilarating. It was really hard to actually see the parade but it was still a really good experience.

Changes in Alfriston
In Alfriston College they should add a new basketball court, longer breaks and a bigger and improved gym
The basketball court is crowded and too much people play on it.With a new basketball court there would be better spaces and not have to be more crowded
Longer breaks would award the students more for their recreational time.Longer breaks would let the students be more relaxed and ready for the next class, thus making the class more productive and more efficient.
The gym right now is tiny,compact and cannot seat alot of people to watch Alfriston college teams. An improved gym should have bleachers two basketball courts and a mezzanine. A mezzanine would let parents students and fans watch their favourite Alfriston team play and preform in their own gym. More fans means a better game atmosphere.
Overall these improvements will benefit students, teams, and really most of the school.

Internet: is it Safe ??
The internet has been around for quite a while. The origin of internet research dated back to the 1960s. As of 2009 one quarter of the human population uses the services of the internet.
There have been doubts of the internets safety through out the years. Lots of incidents revolve around the internet. Situations like social sharing sites, Facebook,Twitter,Google plus, Myspace (Jjks) as a site for sex predetors to stalk and harass people who use the site.
Also Con Artists and Scammers have been using the Internet to target people.On one occasion 58 year old divorcee Philip Hunt has been talking to a girl named Rose online on a dating site. She convinced him that she was pretty smart and desperately lonely, and also suffering from malaria. Unfortunately it was an elaborate scam costing him 82 thousand dollars and ultimately his life.
On some occasions the inthernet is a useful tool for everyone. Its and easy way to connect and communicate with friends and meet new people. Other sites like Wikepdia and Google are helpful sites for your homework.(Copy Paste (:). Other sites also give entertainment and enjoyment like Youtube, Blogger etc
Overall the internet is a very useful kind of tool.....if used in the right way, on Facebook make sure your security setting are saved to the right one. and be very careful when entering unkown sights. Have a firewall so it could prevent sites or viruses to enter your computer.

Mac Miller: Blue Slide Park
One of the upcoming rappers from Pittsburgh is Mac Miller. Releasing his new album sometime this month Blue Slide Park. He has debuted 2 of his tracks, Smile Back and Frick Park Market. He has promised he would drop the album when it reaches 100 thousand pre orders. The two debuted songs have more upbeat bass instrumentals and a more mainstream sound.Fans have been criticizing his new sound, being to upbeat. I personally love Mac Miller's new songs.
Mac Miller has been going up the Itunes charts he is currently top 5 in album pre orders.I recently pre-orded my own copy. He did a live broadcast last night to countdown to his Album pre order.Overall I'm excited for the release of his new album.

Review: NBA2k12 DEMO
The NBA2k12 demo released on September 24.The actual game launches on October 4 in the USA and October 7 Internationally.The demo looked smoother and more realistic than NBA2k11.The game has better visual presentation and a more creative pre game presentation. The game consists of a 4 minute quarter game. The player plays as the Mavericks, a finals rematch with the Heat. Dirk Nowitzki has a more refined shot and a better post up game.
Most of the controls have changed significantly.The hop step has changed into the automatic post move.The crowd visuals has been more realistic and a more part of the game, the athmosphere felt like a real Finals rematch.One of the problems they didn't fix, was the easy way to score inside the basket. and also the game speed. All in all NBA2k12 looks to be one of the best sports game to ever come out.
