Earliest Memory
This picture relates to my childhood because every weekend in summer we used to go to meelup beach in Dunsborough. We lived in Dunsborough for 7 years and there were beaches everywhere but meelup was our families favourite. The crystal clear water, and all of the little fish and stingrays that roam the waters of the beach. We used to climb on the rocks looking for crabs and other creatures. When the beach was quiet we used to throw the ball as far as we could and have a race to see who could get to the ball first. Every week Mr whippy would be at the beach and we got an ice cream after we had finished at the beach. It is one of the nicest and most peaceful places I have ever been and everything there is beautiful water, rocks and serenity and it is a truly amazing spot
Inspirational Figure
Andrew Embley is a former West Coast Eagles player, he was one of the eagle’s best players and he was one of my biggest inspirations. He was an absolute gun midfielder and he was a part of the 2006 grand final when eagles managed to beat the Sydney swans by 1 point and in that game he won the Norm Smith Medal which is the best player on ground in the grand final. He was a hard runner and he attacked the footy as hard as anyone going around. He was runner up in the 2005 Brownlow medal and he was regarded as one of the eagle’s greats. He has now retired and has set us a successful restaurant. Andrew has a is still involved in footy he is a commentator and is involved with the East Perth Football Club in the western Australian Football League
Favourite Movie
Finding Nemo is one of the greatest children’s films ever made, It is an underwater movie about a fish who gets lost and the father of the missing fish goes on a great adventure with dory and they eventually find him. This was one of my favourite films as a child and I watched it over and over again. The main characters are dory a blue and yellow fish, Nemo the main character who is a clown fish, Bruce the shark and marlin the dad of Nemo. During the movie marlin and dory encounter some difficulties and challenges on their great adventure to try and find Nemo. In the end they do end up finding Nemo and it is great story line and outcome.
Special Place
When we went to gold coast we stayed at the Marriott Hotel in the middle of Gold Coast. It is a huge hotel with 43 stories. The first full day we were there we went to SeaWorld. Seaworld is an animal based theme park. I found it very boring because I am not interested in animals. The second day we were there we went to Dream world. Dream world has some huge rides and some huge waterslide. I went on just about every ride and I highly rated it. The next day we went to Movie World, this theme park has some huge rides and the biggest is the superman escape. This is the fastest rollercoaster in Australia and it was the best ride I went on during the whole trip. This trip was one of the best holidays that my family and me have ever been on. We stayed in a very nice hotel, got to go to all of the theme parks and we enjoyed our self every second of the trip
