TRUST US TO DO IT AGAIN
Last night at the Leatherhead Theatre we had the Arts Alive Party. There were many dancers like Morris Dancers, Irish dancers, loads of bands ... and me and Anthony volunteered to perform our Trust dance which we did with the video. I got home at ten o'clock, I had a good time.

REHEARSALS & PHOTOS & FILMING
We've been rehearsing "Your Call Is Important To Us" at Leatherhead Theatre last Monday. I think it went very well. I don't have lines, only movement - I remembered all that. Long day, we were there from 10am to 4.30pm. Photographs of the Lake District I put on my Facebook page, and also photographs from when I was in Uganda back at Easter. Two weeks ago we went to Guildford to film about transport for disabled people, I was the camera operator filming downstairs on a double-decker bus.

HOLIDAY or Media & Dance Show
I'm doing the Media & Dance Show next Wednesday, going to be an all day show, at Epsom College. (That's not quite true, Ed.) Also in August me and Sam (Keelan) are going to the Lake District, activity holiday. We'll be there a week. When we come back in September we are rehearsing "Your Call Is Important To Us", which is going to be performed in October.

UGANDA
I went to Uganda at the end of March, I was there for three weeks over Easter. I saw all my family and friends, uncles and aunties and sisters (I have four, 2 in Uganda) ... so everyone ! We had a different time and different money. Africa's a long way, and every night we had mosquitos. I had fish & chips every night, we went out quite a lot, I went to Portfottro to visit family, my dad's dad and my mum's mum. I had a really good time, I loved it there but I don't like the mosquitos. I left Uganda when I was seven years old (a long time ago) so this is the first time I have been there for ages. My mum had a spare ticket to go to Uganda and I was lucky because she picked me, and I went with my auntie as well. We saw the house that my family is building for our family house in the future.

NEW PLAY & FILM
We are doing a play, the play is Your Call Is Important To Us, by Rachel Barnett. It was so much fun yesterday. It will be performed sometime in October. Somebody is making a call and they have to wait ages to speak to somebody at the other end. 'Please wait. You are number 14 in the queue.' I am also looking at my old school photos with Chris and Gary and my housemate Anna; on 8th July 2008 we went back to our school and started making a film about my schooldays. Now we are trying to buld it up and put it on YouTube.

THIS IS CHRISTMAS, MY LOVELIES
Erm, um, um, you are not going to - are you ? SOON be Christmas ! We will be very busy next Tuesday with the Christmas performance, the last one of the term. I am doing a dance called 'Lonely', with the group, and 'Summertime' as well, with the group. I am looking forward to it, it is hard work but I am still looking forward to it. We have been doing these every Tuesday, for dance in the morning. I am looking forward to Christmas because Christmas is an exciting time to look forward to. You get lots of presents, there is a new beginning, a new term on 5th January. I will see all my family here in London. I go home on 23rd December and get back on 4th January. A nice break for me ... singing Christmas songs, eating mince pies.

Hallo. Bonjour. (That's French) It's me again. I am doing a performance of Earth Rise on 21st October, a Tuesday night, at Leatherhead Theatre. I am not doing it on my own ! It's different ... because Ellen and David have joined us this time. We are also performing with a lot of schoolkids from St Peter's in Ashtead. PS. no-one here feels any sympathy for Newcastle United.

EARTHRISE and Natural History Museum
On Wed 14th May I am doing a show in Leatherhead called "Earthrise". I have to be very busy. I have lines to learn, not too many but I find it OK. I have my own little dance, just me on my own, and then everybody comes in. It's the first dance I have done in a show on my own. I feel OK about that, not nervous. I am going to the Natural History Museum tomorrow in London - and I am filming Pete and Sam for the transport film.

BACK TO SCHOOL !
On 16th July, Wednesday, I am doing a dance show at Epsom College in the evening. Also I am looking forward to going back to school next week, with Anna, to see my old tutors, my very old class when I was young. I played football and was in the football team. I enjoyed that. The funniest thing - I almost fell in the pond, at school. I brought some pictures with me today of when I was at school, and a copy of a school magazine - from a long time ago. I was at school from when I was 5 until 16 or 17. I am going back to film me and Anna for a media project.

I have been in the Freewheelers Theatre Company since - I don't know how long I have been in drama. I enjoy Media and Dance, which is on Tuesday and look forward to coming here, at The Bridge in Leatherhead. My first time doing video was last year on "Rolling On", at the Development Centre. I like Media, it interests me. I'm starting college next week, a photography course. I used to live at the Centre but I am happier where I live now. I share a house with Sam, Anna, Peter, Kirsty, Anthony Ogle, Steven - all Freewheelers. There's more freedom at the house but I miss my friends at the Centre.

Fairy Godfather in the stretched limo!
I enjoyed taking part in Dreamstalk. I liked being the Fairy Godfather and loved how my puppet arrived in a black limo! Everybody had a good time and I really liked singing with the children. I have been busy going to college studying money managemnet, multimedia and personal safety. I like all of my courses but prefer the photo media. I have learnt how to take photos of my classmates. I enjoy college and coming to Freewheelers!

FILMING
Yesterday I - me and Jamie were making a film about this old chair, TOP WHEEL. We threw a chair off the bridge and burned it and hammered it. It was excellent. Today I did more filming - Anthony riding his bike and Martin (Duffy) this morning also for TOP WHEEL. I like filming. I do a filming class on a Wednesday - I have learned how to do portrait and landscape. It helps me, where to put the camera and what background to use.
