 3 phobias to learn about

 Ephebiphobia- Fear of teenagers. Ephebiphobia is the fear of youth. First coined as the "fear or loathing of teenagers", today the phenomenon is recognized as the "inaccurate, exaggerated and sensational characterization of young people" in a range of settings around the world.

 Kakorrhaphiophobia- Fear of failure or defeat. Kakorrhaphiophobia is an abnormal, persistent, irrational fear of failure. In clinical cases, it's debilitating: the fear of even the most subtle failure or defeat is so intense that it restricts a person from doing anything at all. (I think I might have this one two)

My parents know a family in Rarotonga so Paul came down to welcome us but the weird thing was when we got off the plane we were stripping! Paul was in a jersey and long pants. We got onto the bus and they us took us to our resort. We stayed up and we had some drinks well,  the kids had orange juice. We stayed up until like 12:00. The next morning we played in the pool most of the day. On Wednesday we went to Captain Tamas glass bottom boat. We went snorkeling and it was a part of Captain Tamas.

   My Holiday  On my holidays we did nothing much because Mum had to do work. So mum promised us we were allowed a friend over for the night.  I got Isabella over and we went to North to watch my Dad’s team play. Isabella, Maddie and I did the score board and at the end of the game we took all the flags and everything in. We got a chocolate bar at the end of the day for doing it. Then we went to Thames and went to get dinner (McDonald's). We went to watch a movie. The movie was called Allegiant it is the third movie of the divergent series. It is a really cool movie I rate it a 4 out of 5 star rating. Later that night we had a flag competition and whoever could make the best flag won. Isabella and me we didn't  get to make a fly cause we kept mucking up, then Isabella went home.
