Spring Break Camp

Hello again!
Today was the last day of camp for me. I was doing Classical Animation and Creative Drama. In Animation we learned and made our own pixilation (animating people, claymation (animating clay), regular stop-motion (just animating objects), and flipbooks. Oh, and today we did whiteboard animation. :P

In drama we did drama games, like Freeze. In freeze you have 2 people doing a scene together, and then someone yells out "Freeze!". Then the actors freeze. Somebody comes up and takes the place and frozen pose of an actor, then start a totally new scene using the position they are in. It's sooo fun!
I also got applications for theatre programs that you have to audition for or be referred to to get into. They are really cool!
Bye for now!

Poem and a Contest

My pen roars across the page
A lawnmower at full blast
He reaches the end
And spins on his head
Only to start mowing once more

My fingers fly around the keyboard
A tap dancer's energetic dance
They finish the phrase
And begin the word 'bays'
A crazy line of letters to come

My quill prances up and down the page
A skipping schoolchild playing
She runs out of fuel
Takes a dip in the ink pool
Dainty and quiet all the while

A poem is a poem
No matter the form
Remember that, my dear little child
