Tainah- Embarrassment

Walt: write a narrative.


I was standing on the wet grass in  front of 100  people from 7 different school and could not believe what I was seeing.  Tainah was performing an unrehearsed haka.  She performed at Totara Springs.  Well she was embarrassed to do the  haka although she’s wearing a Maori costume.  Tainah looked at the crowd and felt scared.  She started to perform. It was funny! It was amazing! It was fantastic! Tainah made the crowd go crazy.


When Tainah finished her performance, she  cried because everyone was laughing at her. The bell went and Tainah needed to go volleyball.  She only took one step, and everyone started to do the haka. Tainah kept on crying.  It was sad and funny at the same time.


When Glen Innes School was playing volleyball t against Weymouth they were four points down. Tainah was requested to join the volleyball team on court. Tainah focused and served a no return ball. There was a 3 point difference now. Two serves and a return spike got GI to equal  the score. Her team mates were encouraging her to concentrate and close the game. She won  the crucial point and GI  won the game. Her team hugged and high five each other. Underlay,Underlay was all one could hear.Glen Innes had won and the crowd just went crazy. Tainah was hoping she could  carry  play with  the same passion in the finals.


Well Tainah forgot about the embarrassment of the impromptu haka. She was glad that she could help her team. She was so proud of her passionate haka and her volleyball game.
