Olympic Quotes

Since the Olympics have started I have been looking at Olympic quotes that athletes speak to inspire other athletes. These are my top 2 quotes. 

Fitness🎽

Today for fitness, we played Golden child. We were into two teams and carried on playing. The shooting team(my team) were on fire, our team continued getting the running team out. When it was our team to run the other team got a few of us out, but when golden trial ran and freed everyone else we made it. At the end of fitness our team ended up getting  most of the other team out including golden child.

Breakfast🍞

In the morning I woke up early, to help with the breakfast. Dora and I arrived early and made the weet bix bowls and offered milo to the students were hungry and thirsty. After the bell rang for class, the other helper left us in charge with the dishes and cleaning up. It did take us a while to finish but with a little help of a radio we were done in no time. I enjoyed serving food cause it made feel helpful.

Suicide Squad☠💀

The most strangest and most awesome movie ever. Though I haven't seen it, I assume it is because of the trailer. Also because my favourite female Australian actor is starring in the movie, Margot Robbie playing Harley Quinn.

Suicide Squad is a 2016 American superhero film, based on the DC Comics antihero team of the same name. The third installment in the DC Extended Universe, the film is written and directed by David Ayer, and stars an ensemble cast featuring Will Smith, Jared Leto, Margot Robbie, Joel Kinnaman, Viola Davis, Jai Courtney, Jay Hernandez, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje, Ike Barinholtz, Scott Eastwood and Cara Delevingne. In Suicide Squad, a secret government agency led by Amanda Waller recruits imprisonedsupervillains to execute dangerous black ops missions and save the world from a powerful threat, in exchange for leaner sentences.

Beyonce💍Information report

My idol and inspiration, yes it is Beyonce. I chose to write about Beyonce for my information report because I had recently been researching about her for my music inquiry and because she is just really amazing.

Beyonce

Beyonce Giselle Knowles is an American singer, actress, record producer, voice actor, film director, songwriter and a model. She was born in Texas, Houston and became famous performing at local talent shows at a very young age. Beyonce was in the famous 1990s group Destiny's Child's with Kelly Rowland and Michelle William, with two more girls who dropped out of the group.

The start of Beyonce’s career

When Beyonce was quite little she had participated in talent shows and beauty pageants and won most of them, which made her famous at that time. One of her songs Beauty Hurts is based on her days of being in beauty pageants.

Beyonce started off in a group, Destiny's Child's, then expanded to become a solo artist. Beyonce teamed up with her cousin(Kelly Rowland) and two classmates forming the all star group Destiny’s Child, on 1990. Two of the original members Lativa Roberson and Letoya Luckett had dropped out of the group due to group drama. Then Destiny’s Child received a record deal on 1996 with Columbia Records. Later on they released their smash hits “Say my name” and “Bills Bills Bills”. On 2002 Beyonce had moved on from her Destiny’s Child and became an solo artist.

Albums and Songs

Beyonce has released 24 albums so far from 2002 to 2016. But there are yet more albums to come.

Beyonce was 23 years old when she released her first hit album (Dangerously In love). The year of the release was 2003, June the 24th. Beyonce has over 30 hit songs. Some of the most famous songs sung by beyonce are either about heart breaks or redeeming herself. First of all a song that she had recently released this year about her husband cheating on her(Sorry~~I ain’t sorry). And Love on top, Beauty hurts and Who runs the world (Girls).

Beyonce’s singing partners

Topic Sentence: Throughout Beyonce's singing career she has sung, cooperated and worked with many artists/actors. Some of these artists boosted her state of fame making her even popular

Beyonce Knowles had worked with artists such as Shakira(Beautiful Liar), Alicia Keys(Put it in a love song), Missy Elliott(Confessions). Beyonce’s hit songs alongside with these artists

• Justin Timberlake-Until the end of time
• Destiny’s Child-Cater 2 u
• Lady Gaga-Video Phone

Many more

(Though Beyonce works with famous artists she can make it with or without their help to become famous, im my beliefs at least).

Conclusion

Beyonce had made a extraordinary start to her solo career and still maintains that level from where she started. Being able to break from a group, slowly develop in her solo career shows that Beyonce or Queen B can cope through challenges.
