My White Sunday!

I had my white Sunday this week and it was differently fun! White Sunday is where you get parts from the bible and try to speak it in your own language. I had to speak the beautiful language Samoa.

I go get ready and change into my Puletasi with my handmade Pale. I am absolutely excited to go up the stage and show how hard my group has prepared our performance for. "Let's Go!" Says, mom. I go to the car and start off. All I could think about is if I got my part sorted and if I could say it properly.

We are at church and I see people with there beautiful clothing. I go to where all the family is. Then I could see everyone with there white clothing. I go see one of my close friends and start talking to them. "It's time to go guys!" Commands our ministers. So we go and start singing our song for our entrance.

After all the other classes it was my class to go up and perform. I go up the stage and say my part. "Po o le a le leaga o saulo, an e fai ma ipu e maumaule lo na finangalo, ina ua salamo ma liliu atuatua i le Atua. Amene." I finish my part feeling proud of myself. I go down the stage and got ready to go up and do my dance.

Finally I am finished and now I am all relaxed and ready to hang out with my family. As always when white Sunday is finished we will go out or have a BBQ at a family members house.

White Sunday Part 2

Today me and my family had our real White Sunday. Let me tell you what happened first, Me and my family woke up at about 6am I was very exhausted. So first I went to brush my teeth and then went to get change, In White Sunday you would have to wear White. After that I went to have breakfast with the family.

When we finished our breakfast we went to get ready to go Church. I was very excited but nervous at the same time. While I was at Church waiting for the others to come my friend came, I was very happy. So we both went to the hall because that is where we are going to meet the others.

“Talofa Lava Tamaiti!” In english it means Hello Kids. “We are going to do the prayer and getting ready to go inside OKEY!” Every time we have our White Sunday we would always sing a song to enter the Church. I was very nervous to get up the stage. After the little kids my class had to go and get ready.

After the other performance it was us I was very nervous and had all the butterflies in my stomach. I had only one part in our item. I was the first one to get up on the stage so I went. All the kids had to say there parts loud and clear so that the elders can hear us. When it was my turn to say my part I said it out LOUD!!!

After I said my part I was very proud of myself, And I was also happy that I finished my part. After our play we had to sing a song at first it was a fail because we had to sing low so it was an epic fail, So we tried again. “YAY we are done” I said So we all changed back to our clothes.

White Sunday

It is finally the HOLIDAYS!!! “YAY” Me and my family won’t be doing much in the holidays, But I do know that we are go to do White Sunday. I am very excited and a bit nervous because you would have to perform on stage speaking in Samoa. For me it is very hard to speak my own language.

Me and my little siblings will be doing White Sunday this year. “It is time to go” I would tell her where we would be going and she would say “ We are going to practice for White Sunday. Sometimes I don’t like going practices because you would have to do a play, learn your parts and learn the songs. It is a lot of hard work. Sometimes my mom would scold me for not saying the words properly.
