Final Post!

Over the 17 days to make a difference I learnt a lot. I learnt to help others and that they do have lots of jobs to do. Especially my parents, like cooking dinner and cleaning. I think this experience was really cool and I put 8/10 effort into it.

I have learnt to be a good citizen. To be a good citizen you need to help people but before they ask you. And also aprecciate what people do for you.

DAY 17!!

Today it was my last day! I carried on from yesterday by doing half of every thing I have done so far. My parents were very grateful and happy that I helped them so much. I think I have learnt alot from 17 days to make a difference. From now on I'm going to help my friends&family more often because now I know how much there is to do at home and how hard it is to get everything done on time. Throughout this it has been making me feel good to help doing things and who I have been helping.

Day 16

I thought that I would do something special for the last 2 days and I didn't know what to do so I did half of every thing I did for 17 days to make a difference today and will do the other half tomorrow My parents were really surprised and said thanks. I got a huge benafit from all this because I got a raise of pocket money! I gess the work load really did pay off. : )

Day 15

Today I decided to do lots I ...

1. Set and clear the table for dinner.
   
2. pored everyone at the table water.
   
3. Bought the firewood in.
   
4. washed the dishes.
5. And made cupcakes.
   

All the above is what I did today. Doing all this made me feel great that I was helping around the house. Each person said "Thanks Zena"and my dad let me have extra time on the computer. So I guess all the work paid off.

Day 14

Today I went over my dads lines with him for an audition. After he said "Thanks now I know them off by heart and that will help me at the audition. This made me feel great because I had helped him do something good.     

Day 13

Today I made dinner for my family they enjoyed it and my mum especially liked it because then she didn't have to do it. I felt good when doing this not only because it was helping but I got to pick what I made and something that I liked. 

Day 12

1. Today I bought the firewood in from under the house. No one in my family likes to do this including me because it's really cold down there. I know that they appreciated it because they said thanks and if no one does this job we can't have a fire.

Day 11

Today I helped my music teacher set up class and he said thanks. I know I helped because then we could start class on time and not be late for the next class.

Day 10

Today I took my dog for a walk and she really appreciated it because she always likes a walk. I also helped my mum pack up for tomorrow cause we're going away she thanked me and said that I helped her alot so she didn't have to do it the next day. that made me feel good cause then she dosn't have to do so much.

Day 9

Today for my good deed I let my sister on the computer when it was my turn and I shared the chocolate I bought with her because she had no money. She said thanks alot and I knew she liked it. I felt good doing the deeds today and I think it makes people feel good when they share.

Day 8

Today I Helped my mum by getting the washing of the line. It helped her because she had many other jobs to do. I felt better after doing something like this because it helps others.

DAY 7

Today I made coffee for my parents. They enjoyed it ,because they said thanks after. I also made a chocolate cake and gave some to them and also my sister.

Day 6

Today my friend came over to do the famine with me. We did the no eating famine and I sponsored her. I made a difference because she said thanks and sponsored me too.

Day 5

today I went on www.freerice.com and donated 3000 grains of rice. This made me feel good, because the rice went to the people in poor countries that don't have enough food. I also help set and clear the table before and after dinner. That helped my mum because she had a work project to do.

Day 4

Today I picked up my dogs pop and gave her a brush. I know she aprecciated it because she kept wagging her tail and Mum and Dad liked it because then they don't have to do it.

this is Pebbles my dog .She may look cute but deep down she is pure evil.

Day 3

Today I cleaned my room and did the washing for my mum. It was nice to have a clean room again and be able to move. Cleaning my room made me feel good because now I can do my homework on my desk.

Day 2

Today I washed the dishes for my parents. I knew they appreciated it because they thanked me after. That made me feel good because we don't have a dishwasher so it was hard work.

Day 1

Today is the first day. my good deed was helping my mum make dinner it was really fun and I think she likes it when I do that. It also made me feel good because I was missing leasure time to help out :)

Good citizens

what makes a good citizen?

I think a good citizen is someone who is kind and does things for their community. They also Think about others and not themselves all the time.
