My Garden has Grown!!!

My Garden has grown, I now have 3 Tomato plants in total, 6 Roly Poly Carrot plants, 2 Red Capsicum plants, and 6 Lettuce Plants. I have really started my journey, and have just spent the last hour doing some maintenance on my plants.

So far so good.

Here are some pictures of some of my plants:

My Garden Has Started!!!

My garden has started

I have started my garden with a Sweet 100 Tomato plant.

This plant will produce around 100 small cherry tomatoes.

I planted it a few weeks ago, I do not have a picture of what it looked like then but here is a picture of what it looks like now:

My Garden

Since last year in Mr Woody's class I have wanted to start growing things in my own little garden.

Though this year I have talked multiple times with my parents about the idea of having a vege garden. They have both agreed that it would be a good idea but also the idea was raised that I might not stick with my garden and everything would go to waste. So I am starting off small to see if I will stick with it or not. I am hoping by the middle of next year that I will have a large raised garden around the side of our house.

Keep watching my blog for updates on my garden.

Stress!

Stress is a very powerful thing.

It can make you think irrationally, and it can come so often.

I'm not very good at dealing with stress, and Mr Jones's class hasn't helped with that, having so much pressure to do well.

I am wondering what encounters you have had with stress, and how you overcome it

Change has hit America!

America wanted change and from 6:00 am NST Barack Obama became the 44th President of the United States and the first African-American President.

His oath was muddled up a bit, but his speech made up for it.

There were great lines in his speech like:

"Starting today we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and begin the work of remaking America"

and

"On this day we gather because we have chosen hope over fear"

Around 2 million people gathered to watch Barack Obama's Inauguration

2009!

Last year was brilliant,

John Key won the election,

Barack Obama has become the first African-American to be a president elect,

V8 Supercars came to Hamilton,

The Olympics were in Beijing, China, what a party that was,

But most of all I was in Mr. Woody's class.

My real question is,

What will this year hold in store for us?

Remeber 2008 was last year, it is already written in rock,

but 2009 is the present and it is still being written, anything is possible,

and all doors are open.
