Have you ever cheated items in Minecraft before?
On Friday night I played Minecraft on my friend’s house. We loaded our old world and I saw a big a difference. One of the the difference was the arrows to the village and the arrows to the mine. There were at least 3 arrows to the mine and 1 arrow to the follow to get to the village.
After that my friend and I cheated 3 wither skulls to create the Wither. I went to the Nether and set up the boss. I called my friend and defeated the boss. My friend wanted to hit the boss he thought we would get 2 nether stars. A nether star is an item used to create the beacon. A beacon is an another item the gives you power ups like speed.
Then my friend and I cheated again some eye of enders to find the ender portal. When I found it, my friend teleported to me to kill another boss called, the Enderdragon. When we almost killed it, my mum came and I went home.
I hope my friend can kill the Enderdragon himself because it is hard to kill it if you don’t have good armour.

Are you good at Minecraft?
On Saturday night I went to my friend’s house to play X-Box. My family and my uncle were with me. First we had some pizza. There were two different kinds of toppings on the pizza. The first pizza had ham and cheese and the second pizza had my favourite toppings, pepperoni. I was happy because there was a pepperoni pizza.
Then we played Minecraft. My friends and I loaded our previous setting called the old world. When I got inside the world, I was shocked because everything was different. One of the biggest difference was that there was an enchantment table room. An enchantment table is something you can use for upgrading different kinds of weapons such as swords.
Soon after, I discovered that I saw a Nether portal. It is a portal that can help you travel to different dimensions like the Nether. I went to the Nether to mine ores so that I can reach level 30 to upgrade my old iron sword. I saw a lot of dangerous enemies like the Ghast. A Ghast can shoot fireballs that are really harmful.
Finally I reached level 30, so I went back to the portal and enchanted my sword. After I enchanted my sword, I became really powerful because the iron sword can destroy a Ghast in one hit. My friends gave me a diamond sword and I enchanted it as well. However the enchantments weren't very good so I returned it back to him. After that I mined for more ores because I wanted to go up more levels.
Next time I got to my friend’s house. I hope I can reach more levels and make my sword more powerful so that we can fight the big boss, the Wither.

Are you excited about next Sunday?
On Sunday morning I cooked 4 scrambled eggs. I still used the equipments and ingredients I needed to cook it. I turned on the stove to heat up the frying pan to cook the eggs in. While the frying pan was heating up, I grabbed a big bowl then cracked the eggs with a fork, added in a dash of salt and beat it. I poured the mixture into the heated frying pan and waited for at least one minute for it to cook. Then I transferred the cooked scrambled eggs into a plate.
Next I prepared the clean plates, spoons and forks to set the table for breakfast. After the chicken nuggets that uncle cooked were done, I called mum joyfully. My mum was really lazy because she just woken up from bed.
We ate our breakfast silently. After a while my mum asked my uncle if he wanted coffee. My uncle agreed but he didn't drink it. I had tropical juice because I am not allowed to drink coffee yet.
I can’t wait for next Sunday to come because I really enjoyed cooking and preparing breakfast for my family. Next time I want to make all by myself so that my uncle and my mum would be proud of me.

It's cooking time!
On Saturday night my uncle and I went into the kitchen to cook 2 scrambled eggs. My uncle taught me how to cook it. At first, I thought that it was hard for me to learn how to cook, but I managed to do it.
The first thing I did was to get the oil then put a little into the frying pan. I broke the eggs with a fork but I had to be careful that the shell of the eggs do not fall into the bowl and get cooked with my scrambled eggs. When the frying pan was hot, I put the eggs and waited for at least 5 minutes for it to cook.
Finally, my scrambled eggs was done. I let my uncle and my mum to taste it. My mum said to me, “It is so yummy!” My uncle took some salt and sprinkled a dash onto the eggs. He said the same words that my mum had told me. I felt happy and proud of myself for learning how to cook scrambled eggs.
Then on Sunday night I cooked again but this time it wasn't scrambled eggs. I was craving for fat and juicy hot dogs. The hot dogs were easy to cook because it was just like frying yummy eggs. When the hot dogs were cooked, I tasted it and I loved it!
The cooking methods were easy because they were just basic cooking technique. I hope I’ll get to cook some more food like chicken and pork because I am now inspired to use my new cooking skills.
