A Trip to the Cinema
“Yes, Yes, Yes! It was movie time. It was the Manaiakalani
Film Festival!” Imagine your schoolmates and you together, watching movies.
Imagine a whole heap of other schools watching the movies as well.
14th of November 2012, what was so special about this
date? Well if you want to find out then keep reading and find out for yourself.
Well as I said 14th of November 2012......was the
Manaiakalani Film Festival. 9:55 a.m. Our whole school had made three films for
the Manaiakalani Film Festival. We had to attend this Festival to support our
movies and cheer on for the other movies from several different schools. By 10
o’clock we were all seated in the hall getting ready to depart to Sylvia Park’s
Cinema. As we entered the school vans we could already spot some headless
chooks acting like little maniacs. I took the first van with four other boys
and a lot of girls from my class. We took off in a hurry as if we were going to
catch a flight.
As were arrived at our destination we were surrounded by a
lot of parking lots. As we were looking at the amazing scenery, a bone chilling
wind almost blew me off my feet. We took a picture at a weird looking blob of
some kind, but I knew that is the life of art.
Waiting and waiting for several minutes which felt like a
lifetime, a swarm of Tamaki Intermediate students were rushing up to us like
rampaging bulls.
Meanwhile we were waiting for a wave of other different schools
to scurry on so that we could get inside to the warmth of the theaters. Finally
they were in, so we followed on into the horrifying maze of Sylvia Park. As
other people were walking by, I almost got lost then I saw my teacher and ran
to her like I was a little child in pain.
When we went to the escalators we saw that Glenbrae was
already seated. When I hopped onto the escalators I could see my teacher Mrs
Parker-Tofa from the corner of my eye.
We had to be seated in the cinema so I decided that I would go
and sit near the teachers so I wouldn’t get into trouble. I could still feel
the bone chilling wind blow onto my shirt as if I was a flag. As I went inside
I could feel the temperature changing. I felt like I was in a completely
different world.
It was dark and the only things in sight were students,
students and even more students. I peaked over my shoulder and saw that Howard
was following in behind me. Lucky I thought that I was not lost again. So
Howard and I decided that we go and find Mrs Raj, we spotted her but we thought
that she was one of the students from another school.
Then we went inside and saw a humongous screen! We travelled
on foot to our seats and sat down. It looked like we were in a fancy hotel. When
our movies came on I almost cried with tears of joy and I could feel the
happiness around me. Our class movie to thank Mr. Horan was the best movie I
guess.
