School's Out!

Hey guys it's Tori here!!!!!!!! How are you all? Are you having a great summer? I know I am, finally free of school, well... until September that is. But anyway I'm going on holiday soon, I'm going to Dorset  and then Cornwall. And I (sammy) am going camping for a week and then going on holiday! And yesterday I had my birthday present (although my birthday wasn't yesterday!) and I was a zoo keeper for a day, I got to feed giraffes and penguins, I got to hug a tapir and hold a four day old duckling!!! N'awwwww! He was so cute, and a bit scared! So yeah, that's what we're doing in the summer holidays, what about you? Tweet us on twitter what you're doing @ToriSammyBlog !!

The photo is of me feeding a giraffe! I look a bit odd because I had only just got there and I was a bit terrified (he was massive and he could have accidentally ate my hand, unlikely but it could've happened!) and the lady was telling me to smile!! Lol :)

And I (Tori) am going to have my birthday soon, not more than a couple of weeks!!!!!!!

Don't forget to tweet us @ToriSammyBlog !!!!!!!:D

Bye guys,Sinead Michael interview will be up soon :D

"Life's not fair!"

This post is all about the quote "Life's not fair!" We're sure we've all heard it several times, but is this quote true? Most people see 'fair' as 'equal' but they are not the same thing. For example, Andy Murray lost the final last weekend, and was that fair? Yes! His opponent had spent years working on his backhand to succeed. For it to be fair, who would have won? They couldn't both have won, so it would never be EQUAL, but Andy's opponent spent every day for 2 and a half years practising! Does that make it fair? I think so!

So, fair isn't always equal. And we try to look at the world with open eyes and an open mind. New ideas, they're worth a try! You can't win if you never try! But, if someone has the new iPad, you shouldn't be jealous, you should just be happy for them. And know that you'll get something you love when the time comes.

We guess we think like this because We are optimists, but that's just us! And we feel sorry for the people that a pessimists or people that have to copy or cheat because they're not happy with themselves or their ideas! Ok, sensible head off! So SMILE! 'cause as we always say 'You only live once' so live life to the full!

Have a good day!

From Sammy+Tori! xx

*cringe*

Okay, so we all did things at primary school that looking back at, we cringe! So here are a few of our primary school cringe moments...

1- singing 'he's got the whole world in his hands' and knowing all the actions and feeling so proud! *cringe*
2- thinking you're so amazing when you're having a day you'll remember for the rest of your life and saying 'I can talk about this in circle time next week!' *cringe*
3- Being so happy that it was your turn on 'reception duty'. Now I would just see it as missing lunch break!
4- Wearing those little headbands that match your dress and your hairband, such a cringe moment...
5- All those times you slip on the grass and land right on your bum and it hurts but tip try not to cry but you do anyway *major cringe*
6- Being so proud when you have begged and begged to ring the bell at the end of break or lunch even if you're in year 5 and 6. *embarrassing*
7- Playing shops on the benches around the trees and using conkers and pine cones as money and ground white rocks as sugar *majortastic cringe*
8- Having the first solo line in the year 6 play. *embarrasingorwhat*
9- Getting locked in the girls toilet in the middle of he lesson and having to bang on the door until someone hears. *tooembarrassingforwords*
10- Playing families in the holly bush. *cringamundo*
11- Using leaves to make the walls of houses. *thatisthemostcringiestthingever*

Thankyou and goodnight! We hope you have enjoyed this post she have laughed your head off.
