Part 3: Me creating the awards show was actually quite easy surprisingly. Time was my issue. When the actual Awards show was going on. I was on a computer putting the results on a document. Then working with envelopes for the results and then the Best Musical giant envelope. The envelope for Best Musical was pretty epic. It had a big marque of Best Musical Goes To? (In Gold) It also contained many music notes, stars, etc... The one thing I am still sad about is not having a musical number pop out of the box. If only I were a wizard and could actually make that into a reality. O well.
Part 4: The Box. This part was interesting. I thought maybe this would fit in a small box but.... My creativity required a bigger box. I put all the stuff in the bigger box and Mr. Rubber Ducky was safely put in surprisingly. I would of cried if he would of died in the process. But he is safe. Then I ran into another problem. Shipping.... I wanted Elder Horton to have the package on the day he received his mail but I knew that wasn't possible so what do I do? I willingly payed $30 dollars to get it expressed mail so he could get it. I am such a nice friend aren't I? The Tony's are important! And overall I feel it was worth it because I made Elder Horton happy and gave him something interesting to do at the MTC.
Overall: A Complete Success.
Now to the part that I kinda have been pondering over the last few weeks. Creative Summer Adventures you and your friends can enjoy.
I think it is kinda sad to hear people say I would rather be in school than be having a summer. Really?! As much as I love school, I still need a break. I am in summer school now and I really miss my summer. There are a lot of things I wanted to do but are now on back hold because of school. So I have decided to give some interesting/creative Ideas for you to do maybe over the summer.
1) Reading a book. Your thinking this may not. But it really is. If you really invest into a book, I can say you will be part of the adventure. Perfect way to get the imagination rolling.
2) Spin Art. If you dont know what this is then you are in for a treat. Wikipedia does a better explanation of this so here is what they say. "To create spin art, an artist initially decorates or drips paint onto a canvas. The canvas can be anything; however, the most common form of canvas is a small rectangular piece of cardboard. Before the paint on the canvas dries, the artist secures the canvas to a platform that can be rotated at high speed. Once the canvas is secure, the artist can then begin spinning the canvas. Most spinning platforms are electrical or battery operated, with more elaborate platforms enabling the artist to vary the rotational speed.
3) Creating a floral arrangement or planting a flower pot. These are both very fun projects and long lasting (if you take care of them.) If you do a floral arrangement I will tell you that if you want your arrangement to survive for a while two really good things to do are 1. change the water out everyday or every other day. 2. If you add sprite instead of water your arrangement is getting some really good nutrients. Sugars. Sugars help the arrangement last a little bit longer.
4) Have a group of friends create some tie dye shirts.
5) Go to a Museum or Arts Festival.
6) Volunteer your time at the hospital or any local community center. Giving back your gifts to others are some of the biggest rewards in life.
7) Road Trip!!! Get a group a friends and plan to one day road trip somewhere and go have some fun!
8) Create your own game and have your friends try it out. (This is a great way for babysitters to have a second to sit down.)Thou things may be expensive and we are facing some economic troubles in our country, there are many ways to entertain yourself during your summer vacation! "No Day But Today"!
