Poetry Evening

On Thursday evening the 25^th of April, there was an anthology of student poetry. Whereby, each student who wanted to read his poem reads, in front of the audience of parents, teachers and students. My poem was about women’s day which describes the difficulty of women in today’s world.  The poem I wrote, explains in a metaphoric way the low status of women around the world titled as “I am”. The reason I wrote about the difficulty of women around the world is to pass a message to the audience, showing them how women, are an important part of our world the mother, the wife, the fundamental person in each house. The idea of writing about the difficult lives of women came from my geography lessons, learning about the inequality between men and women, and how the women gave up their personal lives, for us the sons, the daughters and for the husbands. Therefore, my goal was to express my thoughts by writing and depicting to the public, a global issued by the use of poetic devices. Overall, I really enjoyed and felt proud of reading my poem in front of the all school.

In conclusion, reading my poem increased my confidence, by undertaking the challenge of reading in front of the whole school, and showing perseverance and commitment. At last, I proved myself that I can take the challenge of reading my poem in front of a big audience. It was worth it, when several people told me that my poem was wonderful and interesting to listen to.

    

  

Prom Preparation

Two weeks, before the prom evening, me and my friends from class, brought tools and materials to make props and designs for the function. The prom theme was the “Beatles”, so we made peace signs, sprayed bicycles and designed flower decorations by sticking it into sponges. I made all the peace signs by hula hoops and wood sticks. I was cutting and shaping the peace signs, in the hula hoops by stapling it inside. After wards, I sprayed each peace sign with a different colour. The reason I chose to help and organize the prom is because, I wanted to learn how to work collaboratively with others. There were some problems of planning, which resulted in doing all the decorations in a stressed time. However, it was more enjoyable for me, to experience the organization and pressure of being responsible for a whole function. To end with, I felt satisfied and proud of myself in taking part in planning and organizing the prom. Overall, the prom evening was a success and a marvelous function, as some of the guests complemented me for the decorations I made.
