A Strange Job Interview - Writing: W6 T1



A strange job interview…

It all started with a random email I got when I was browsing through my unread emails. “Come along to score yourself an awesome job at the marine life park?” I, uh, kind of lost my recent job. It’s a very long, strange, annoying and out of this world crazy story! Anyways, I applied and I got a response straight away. I was very frightened. “Are they this desperate?” I thought to myself in shock.

The next day…

I wanted to prepare myself, I spent 2 hours looking through my small scale and filthy wardrobe. I never entered my closet because when I first moved into this compact sized apartment I seen a rat scurry out of there. I filled with regret and despair, I surprisingly found a very adult like dress. It was an auburn maroon-ish colour, I actually liked it and I had to deal with it since it was the only dress I owned.

The job interview…
Ughh today I felt terrible. I stayed up late worrying about what I was going to say what happened at my last job. My stomach swarmed with butterflies as I was driving. “You’ve got this.” I whispered to myself. As I paced into the entrance all I could smell was fish! It was disgusting I blocked my nose and walked through to the “conference” room. As I walked in…

The job interview that changed my perspective on life…

As I walked in there were octopus’s hanging from the ceiling. I was in shock. “Ahhh Miss Granger ( yes i quoted Harry Potter ) welcome! I- I didn’t say a word, i just awkwardly smiled… “take a seat.” I sat down next minute I knew I WAS SITTING ON JELLYFISH! I screamed as loud as I could until, he stopped me. “Sorry my jellyfish’s escaped.” I calmed myself. He placed the jellyfish in his hand and shoved it back into “fish” tank. “YOU GOT THE JOB!” I started laughing, “nice joke now should we get into the interview?” I said in confusion. “Well you already got the job?” he said quietly I still had no clue what he was on about. “Let’s just say the sharks approved you…” I turned around and there was a hammerhead shark laying down on the ground just beneath my feet… let’s just say I ended up starting the next day.

Bonus Activity: Waka Ama

Waka Ama -

I would like to try it I didn't see any girls but if they were allowed I would try. It looks very tiring but also very fun, so I would give it a go but I would have to choose a lot of friends

Week One: In the Beginning (1800-1870) Activity 2: Setting Sail

My letter to my whanau -

To Dad, Mum, Devon and Blake.
I'm on this waka the ear swelling cold is making me shiver which makes the waka sway a lot. I can't wait to get to Aotearoa and explore the new massive island. I wonder who else is going to be there? It rained last night and all I could do was sit there and stay still. I like the days when it's hot and you can move around in the waka and not be freezing cold.

I will try write another letter to you soon.

- Chloe

Week One: In the Beginning (1800-1870) Day 1: Arriving in New Zealand…

Maui -
* He has 3 older brothers.
* His brothers wouldn't let him go fishing with them but he soon became the best fisher out of them all.
* Maui is actually an island in Hawaii.

This fishing story is not the only story I've heard of, if you have watched Moana then you know there is a character called Maui who is inspired by him and he has the hook. The same one that Maui used to catch the fish. Also the sign for the Uru Manuka cluster has a hook in it.
