Dear Diary,
I’m so excited about my new job. Last night, on my first night I found a secret hallway by the Discovery Area. It was near the dinosaurs. I was doing my rounds with a torch when I heard a BANG! I have to admit that I was kind of scared. Don’t tell the boss that, she’d fire me.
The noise was coming from the mummy area so I decided to take a look. Surprisingly, the mummy tomb was smashed into little pieces and a strange shuffling, moaning noise was coming from behind me. The mummy was standing right behind me! My heart was pounding.
I ran away from the mummy. It chased me to the Maori area where I hid in the cave. I had a bit of a think and made a plan. In the kitchen there was some rope and I thought it would help me catch the mummy. My trap was a clever idea because it would catch the Mummy by the foot like the Maori caught their birds years ago.
I bravely stood up and shouted…. “Mummy, I am over here!” It shuffled over, bumping into the tables and chairs but before it noticed my rope, it was trapped.
It was pretty quiet in the museum for the rest of the night until I heard my boss arrive. I didn’t know how I was going to explain that the Mummy had come alive.
