LIKE the bit when the hiphop bit beucause its fun. One of the men jump on his head
and spring around. Some of the music was too loud in the dance which looked like a theatre.

My mum and I took one of the cameras and we took these photos - me eating breakfast, and me walking around in the kitchen. The best picture was me eating breakfast because I looked funny. I was eating Honey Monsters. Have a look at the picture and see what you think.

Hi
I went to see the Nations that is a story about two young people from different parts of the world. There is  massive waves in the sea that distroys the land killing the nations people leaving one boy teenager alive.  In the sea there is a ship wreck and the teenager girl is swept to the land that is where the boy is left alone.

Bought together they do not understand each other ,different languages, different cultures, different races.  These two teenager learn to survive  and help others they meet, in the end they must part but they never forget each otheer.

My son Dwaun enjoyed the play very much he was on the edge of  his chair all the way through.  The play was beautifully done and is a must see event.

Where the wild things are

from MARCIA DWAUN | Comment (0) | Jan 14, 2010 MARCIA DWAUN

Today i spoke about a film that i watched at the movies, called Where the wild things are.  I rememebered this movie as a book that i read when i was a child, it scared me but i liked it.



The movie was good it lived upto my imagination as a child and bought up  memories of when i was growing. I was glad that they made a movie that my own children could watch.

"I think what i have learnt the most about this project is.......wait for it....is SELF BELIEF. If an artist or anyone, writes, sings, dances or sculpts etc and believes they have done a good job, well thats all that matters....i have doubted myself in the past, lacked believing in myself and what i can achieve....”
