I'm Leslie and I'm reading your blog from my home in Canada as a member of the Summer Learning Journey. It's the middle of winter here and the temperature outside is about -24 C. Can you imagine living where the temperature is well below 0 for weeks at a time?
I think your wish to have 'super speed' as your superpower is a great one. I wish I had that quality too, especially on days like today when I have to walk our dog and it's really really cold outside. I'd love to be able to walk my 5 km. in half the time it takes on a warm day!!!
I can totally understand why you'd want to be able to sleep a little later and be able to zoom to school each morning. It can be hard to get up early to get ready for school, can't it? And when it's pouring rain outside, it would be great to be able to zip through the rain and get where you're going without getting soaked!!
You mention that being fast would help with sports. Do you like to play sports? Are you a football or rugby player? I have a grandson, Aronui, who lives in Auckland and I know that he really loves rugby and basketball. I hope he'll choose basketball over rugby in the future because there's less crashing and bashing on a basketball court. Rugby can be a pretty rough, tough sport!!
I hope you're getting lots of time to be outside on your summer holidays and I hope you'll keep working on these activities. You're doing really well!
