Today our talented writers will “improvise”

​Hello and welcome to another fun Umbrella Blog!
Today our talented writers will “improvise” if they can’t find the words to use! We’ll that’s almost a little hint on what’s happening here today. We are blogging about something we are looking forward to and today, the challenge word to use is “IMPROVISE” as suggested by Charlotte. WOAH! It’s a tricky one but we’re ready….
 
 
I’m looking forward to looking after my friends cat, the cat name is Diego and to look after him I have to improvise my living arrangements and stay at my friends house so the cat is comfortable and calm.  Also, I will have to improvise on the food situation because I’m a bit picky and I would have to buy my own food from a grocery store next door. But it can’t be food that can go in the fridge, because again, I’m picky.

Then, I would be cooking for one not three. But I can cook meals to eat for later by meal prepping. 

I’m going to improvise with a different choice of drink and try to change my habit of drinking two cans of V’s into just one a day. I’ll try my hardest, but not sure how I will go. 
Also, I’ll need to adjust the time I’ll be waking up as Diego wakes up at the crack of dawn to be let out. My cats at home will be let out and I can go back to sleep until about 7am. 

Also with me being away from my cats, they will have to improvise with me not being there. My cat Banshee, usually has a little sook and after dinner he goes and  gets on my bed and sleeps, so my mum or dad will have to go get him up and bring him into the lounge. Diego will have to improvise without his parents (aka my friends).
 
People are not the only ones who need to improvise, animals also need to be flexible and be able to adjust. Improvising is also a daily occurrence, for everyone.  
I love improvising because it does get me out of my comfort zone but I can control it too, to suit my needs.

What are we looking forward to?
We were given the challenge to use the word improvise in our blogs and I honestly have no idea how I’d be able to sneak it into my blog, so I’m just going to start with it straight up and have it in the very start. Have you ever been given a challenge and you really have no idea how you are going to be able to pull it off? Yeah that’s me.

What does improvise mean; According to Oxford languages it means to produce or make (something) from whatever is available. For example; "I improvised a costume for myself out of an old blue dress"

I’m looking forward to getting to go to The Lion King musical in 2026, as a massive Lion King fan this will be the highlight of the year and possibly my life. I have wanted to see this musical since I heard of its existence and haven’t yet been able to see it so I’m super excited for this.

I’m looking forward to the birth of my best friends baby he is already so very loved, I’m looking forward to seeing The Stitch movie which I hope to see with my plush stitch build a bear, I’m looking forward to going to see my unofficial niece and unofficial nephew at some point in the future and I’m looking forward to seeing what the future holds for us all for the rest of this year.

It’s really exciting to have something to look forward to, it can also be scary if it’s something that you haven’t experienced before but I really love having something to look forward to. The future can be a bit of a scary thing to think about but also we are very lucky to have a future to think about.

And you my dear reader have next weeks blog to look forward to! What would you write about if you were writing a blog? Tell us in the comments!
Love and kindness to you all,
From your friend always,  Shan.
 
 
I’m looking forward to watching the new movie coming out soon that is called Stitch, hangout with my good friend Tayla have fun, and maybe I can go back to Queensland with my bro and have fun up there. When I come back to home and I need to relax and play some games, just a little tired because from my grandpa pass away I couldn’t sleep much, but today I get my lunch real quick and come here little late from TJ
 
 

Dear Readers, this week’s topic is what you're looking forward to. 
Let me start by telling you about what I’m looking forward to. 
I’m looking forward to seeing the Harry Potter Exhibition in the city
with my Support Worker from Faith Disability Services and her name is Martina. 

I have a Gryffindor Harry Potter robe and a Harry Potter’s wand I will be wearing.
I’m feeling very excited to go see this exhibition because as a young teenager I read two Harry Potter books and watched all the movies more than once and I've been to watch the Cursed Child Musical.

In today's blog we had the challenge to use the word improvise.
I have a question for readers: have you ever had to improvise when something has happened or when cooking and you run out of an ingredient?

I’m really looking forward to seeing Southern Sons soon because I’m a huge fan of Jack Jones and I need to manage my time with him. I can’t wait to see them again because I’m going to make sure that Krystle and I have a great time in Geelong, and I can’t wait to have some time with Krystle. 

I’ll enjoy my time in Geelong with Krystle who has taken up the time away from her family but she loves her job. I need to improvise what I’m wearing tomorrow night for the show.  Thank you for reading my blog and maybe you learnt about the word improvise. Ash.
 
 
Hello and welcome to a blog which I’m really looking forward to, but I may have to improvise as I’m not sure what to write. Recently I wanted to buy tickets to a concert but being a person in a wheelchair I have to improvise and try different methods to get the tickets I need. However, I managed to get through in 20 minutes which is a record!!!!!!!! (See my ticket blog for tips and tricks). I’m really looking forward to seeing Usher in November as he is one of my favourite singers.

Another thing I’m looking forward to is going to the Ashes at the end of the year. It will be my 3rd Ashes trip. I have to improvise and plan a little further in advance as I need to negotiate with the airline and get lots of letters for all my medical needs.

Improvisation is key when you have a disability as you never know what will happen daily. What do you need to improvise in your daily life? Do you find your improvisations work and if not, how do you adapt?
Thank you for reading my blog and keep being awesome, Ben
 
Hi friends how are you? Today’s topic is something you’re looking forward to, and I am looking forward to seeing the new Lilo & Stitch movie in Gold Class. Who are you going with you ask? I’m going with Cindy, Martina and Charlotte. We are planning to go next Friday and I’m so looking forward to it it’s going to be so amazing I can’t wait, bring it on!

I want to see this movie because I haven’t seen the first movie and the previews look good and also it would be good to go out with the girls and get out of the house and away from my annoying siblings.

I don’t have anything to wear to this special occasion so I will have to improvise and put two outfits together and make something special with what I have at home.
 
Thank you for reading my blog my lovely readers, this is the bubbly Bethany signing off until next week. Beth

I am really looking forward to buying a go-kart.
I am looking for a go-kart with just tyres and brakes as I can put an engine in it myself.

I am look forward to working on the go-kart and racing it, I may need to improvise while fixing the go-kart .

Another thing I am to looking forward is the bon fire in Kilcunda in late June and hopefully seeing my friend Amara. It’s going to be lots of fun. The bonfire happens every year and the community comes together.
