All my friends came over around 10:30 and at 11 we started heading to the supermarket to get lollies and drinks after that we were heading for the funnest place on earth the manic room! When re arrived the first thing i saw was people jumping off things.We headed to the counter and signed a form that was about if we died it wasn't there fault. After we got that out of the way we ran and tried every obstacle that was there.We ran up walls, we jumped off obstacles and front flipped into the foam pit. But sooner or later it came to an end and we went to have lunch at the mount.We started heading back home around three o'clock. When we got home it was time to open presents the things i got were a gift voucher to the movies, 20 dollars, a cube puzzle, 40 dollars worth of itunes cards and a choice between 30$ or 50$ towards a training academy for soccer called coerver. everyone went home except two of my friends that stayed the night at my house and left in the afternoon.My birthday party was a total success I will keep you guys up to date but for now it goodbye!

Homework Challenge



Hi guys I have just completed the homework challenge E3. Visit an exhibition and review it. Present your review on your blog. In these holidays we went to the local art gallery and reviewed it.The art that was their was created by Jeff Thomson.

The first piece of artwork that I saw first was probably the best out of everything it was a old car made out of corrugation iron and even to make it more impressive was that it had its own number plate and had seats in side of the metal car as well as a steering wheel and last not but least that it was able to drive!

The next piece of art work that I saw was a giraffe made out of corrugation iron it had so much detail it look like it would just turn to life right in front of your very own eyes. There were also very long pieces of swirly metal that had been moulded in to a fascinating shape if you had a hard look at it it shown that Jeff Thomson had put allot of detail and structure to make it look good and not to make fall so easily.

On the bottom floor i had been looking at portrayed pictures of mauao if you had a closer look at the m you could see how much time and effort they had put in it to make it look so good but if you had far away look you can see how that it look so life looking. Upstairs was even more of Jeff Thomson's Art work there were chickens, dogs, bags, woven bags, mail boxes and a small house all made out of corrugating iron.

I would defiantly recommend this to children to see how many things can be made out of almost anything as well as it is so fascinating to look at.
