19 year old, Anna Faith Carlson, has become famous for looking like the real-life version of Frozen’s Elsa!
Anna became an online sensation after she posted a picture standing next to a cardboard cut-out of the ice princess, Elsa.
Anna says that she herself finds the similarities between herself and the Disney character a “crazy resemblance” and says that it feels as though she is watching herself when she watches Frozen.
Now with over half a million followers on Instagram, Anna uses her fairytale looks to help others, she and her sister, Lexus, teaming up and visiting sick children in hospital as Elsa and Ana.
Anna’s fame has grown rapidly and she has already been offered modelling jobs and acting roles on US shows.

cross country

im helping david school with their cross country i will be helping to tell the kids where to go. Im telling you how  will feel and if I will be happy or sad so keep reading on and i will tell you more.

I'm standing there and watching all of the kids get ready for the race and getting warmed up. They are looking nervous. All of a sudden I hear ready set go I turn my head and i watch the kids zoom past my friend tim the starting line . I hear huffing and groaning as they push past me. They lean on me to try to give them a boost .I give them a cheer so they all start to sprint to the finish.

I say slowly to myself finally i don't have to stand in the wet sweaty grass and be so bored. all of a sudden there is no one there i'm stuck sunbathing in the sun well everyone else i celebrating.

British couple become oldest people to marry

oldest couple
George Kirby (103 years old) and Doreen Luckie (91 years old) have become the oldest couple to get married.
The British couple have been together for 27 years and finally said their vows in southern England with family and friends on George’s 103rd birthday.
George and Doreen have a combined age of 194 years, beating the previous record set by a French couple with a combined age of 191 years.
Between them George and Doreen  have 7 children, 15 grandchildren and 7 great-grandchildren.
I wonder if they have did yet or if they are still alive.

Muppets fans have been left shocked after Miss Piggy and Kermit the Frog announced the end of their long-running love affair.
On each of their social media accounts they said “after thoughtful consideration and considerable squabbling, we have made the difficult decision to terminate our romantic relationship”.
The pair will still work together but their personal lives will be separate. They are now free to see other people, pigs and frogs.
A TV expert said Hollywood is a place where relationships are difficult to have alongside the fame and fortune.
It seems unlikely that the couple will patch things up. this is not good because it is sad that they are fighting

royal homes
If you have ever wanted to live like a royal here is your chance!
Two holiday houses at Queen Elizabeth’s Sandringham Estate are now available to rent and whoever moves in will be the neighbours of Prince William and Catherine the Duchess of Cambridge.
Ever since the arrival of William and Kate’s second child, Princess Charlotte, they have been living at Anmer Hall in the Sandringham Estate, alongside the two holiday homes.
One of the available houses is known as the Garden House and overlooks the square garden where the royal family spend Christmas each year. A week long stay at Garden House will cost £625 ( $1494.90 NZ).
The second house is slightly cheaper with prices starting at £600 ($1435.10 NZ).
 this is interesting because it would be so cool to live in a big house.

The New Zealand men’s basketball team have won their second Stankovic Cup title – adding to their win in 2011. The Tall Blacks narrowly defeated Mexico 70-66 in the final in China.
It was a final quarter push that gave them the title. Mexico came back in the third-quarter and even managed a narrow lead in the final 10 minutes, but the Tall Blacks pushed at both ends of the floor to take the gameand the title.
The win will give the Kiwis confidence as they prepare for a home and away contest against Australia – the winner will qualify for the Rio Olympic Games.
“It is important that we enjoy this and take the time to reflect on what we have achieved,” said head coach Paul Henare. “These moments are rare for New Zealand basketball and we need to take the chance to be proud of what we have done, be humble but be proud.
I found this cool becauses nz got the cup witch is so cool

we need a spa

Why we should have a spa!!!!!!!  

My family should be able to have a spa, but my mum is just not letting us. Even my dad wants one. So we've got to convince my Mum to let us have one.
 
This is also a good idea because we all want to have a warm relaxing time with our family so you can catch up  and talk. I think we should definitely have one Also it would be a good excuse to invite my friends over. You could just say that they can come for a spa.


My Dad really wants one because he wants to relax before he goes to bed because Has to get up early and he needs time to relax. Spas are relaxing and warm perfect for the winter. We can invite friends over and chill on a winters night.

Mum can we please have a spa before the winter is over.It would be relaxing before and after school it would save us walking up the road to go to the neighbor's house especially in the cold.
Yours Sincerely Emma
So i strongly believe we need one.




Five year old saves family

Five year old saves family

A 5 year old girl in Canada has been hailed a hero after she saved her family after a horrific car crash.
After her mother fell asleep at the wheel and their SUV veered down a 40-foot ridge, Lexi Shymanski managed to get out of the wreckage and climbed up a steep bank to find help.
The little girl managed to flag down a passing car and explain to the driver what had happened, leading him back to where her mother and 10 week old baby brother were still trapped. A second driver, who happened to be a paramedic, also came to help.
Lexi’s mother broke her back in 2 places in the crash and is now confined to a wheelchair. 10 week old Peter had to undergo surgery to reduce brain swelling.
$19,000 has been raised to help the family and although Lexi doesn’t know it, she’s definitely a hero.

this is the best story ive seen so far on kiwi kids news 

Original Milo on sale for at least $4000

Original Milo on sale for at least $4000

milo
Stocking up on 273 packets of classic tasting Milo may sound crazy but has turned out to be an excellent idea for Taranaki man, Shaun Harris.
After discovering that Nestle would be changing the original and well-loved recipe for Milo, Shaun went on a Milo shopping spree, buying up 143 kilos of the chocolate drink.
Now with most of NZ desperate to get their hands on the classic Milo, Shaun has taken to Trade Me, offering his entire stash to one lucky buyer for a price of at least $4000.
So far no one has been willing to spend that small fortune but Shaun says if no one buys the lot by November he will sell them separately. Shaun believes that selling them individually in time for Christmas will offer a great present idea.
I think this should not be at this price this is not good we should be able to by it for at lest 5.oo$ or a little bit more

women cries crystals

Woman Cries Crystal Tears

Created on August 10, 2015
crystal
Laura Ponce from Brazil has a rare medical condition – she cries crystal tears!
It may sound pretty awesome but in fact the condition is very painful for 35 year old Laura. When she cries, Laura’s eyes create a white clot which turns to solid crystal after she blinks and it reaches the eye’s surface.
Laura first discovered the crystal tears when she was 15 and her mother took her to the emergency room. The doctor was just as mystified as Laura.
The condition has caused Laura’s eyes to swell often and has caused infection, forcing Laura to take 6 months off work as she removed up to 30 hard crystals from her eyes each day. The crystals would then form a membrane over her eye.

For over 20 years, no one could explain Laura’s condition until she met Dr. Raul Goncalves, an ophthalmologist specialist. He believes the crystal tears are a result in Laura’s eyes producing excessive amounts of keratin protein.
I found this weird because where would the crystals come from  ? And how would they get in he body .

Pajama Bus Thief

bus
A city bus in Saskatoon, Canada, was stolen by a 9 year old boy in pajamas and taken for a ride!
The bus stopped after it hit a truck and then another bus. Fortunately, no one was injured although the bus did gain a cracked windshield and a broken mirror.
The bus was left at the garage with the engine running by a maintenance worker and the young boy climbed in and took off.
The boy won’t face any charges due to his age.

i found this so weird because i thought that this 9 year old boy in his pjs could steel a bus and then drive it away. and not die .
