Cinema Excursion to Batman 'The Dark Knight'

Last tuesday, some of us went to the cinema by bus to see the new famous batman movie. We started early and arrvived at a good time because we were able to buy some sweets and drinks and stuff like that, don't know how all this variations are called. After entering the hall, all Queenswood Members sat in the first three ranks. This was doltish and really annoying. I got bored, because in front of the big screen, it isn't as well as it's in the backyard.The film was sound and full of action and surprises. That isn't my sapidity. I enjoyed it, because i fell asleep and i didn't woke up because i wasn't the only person who enjoyed the film in this way.

British Museum/Icons of Revolution

Yesterday we went to the British Museum in London. It was impressive. My main theme was Icons of Revolution. This exhibition is in room 69a, I had some problems to find it, because this museum is so huge and full of crowds. It was exhausting but quite interesting to find the way through such a population concentration. When i entered the room, I was amazed by the diversity of knowledge about one theme:Mao Badges then and now. Over 5 million badges were made in China during the Cultural Revolution(1966-1976). They caused political chaos because there were too many which stood for the same attitude. Most of them were signs which helped the communists to identify people who were loyal to Mao and the Communist Party. Many badges were made to show important battles and remember special events and meetings. The most famous is the one with the Tian'anmen Place in Beyjing, where Mao announced the founding of the People's republic of China in 1949.Every person in China had to follow Mao's rules and show loyality. The daily life was influenced through Mao's thoughts and rules. Today, there are still some Mao statues left in China, because it depends on Chinese tradition to believe in him.

English Grass in Queenswood

When I first saw the Queenswood Area, I was amazed how it was cultivated. I stood in front of the far green and looked over the trees and bushes and was surprised how it was planted. Someone has took much care in doing this. When i made the first step on the sward, it was soft and quite wonderfull to stand on. Like I was a part of it. This is the way, real english sward has to be. You do not want to touch it, because maybe you could damage it and the grass will never forgive you. I will keep it in memory forever.

Excursion to Tate Modern

Yesterday we were on a trip to London to learn about art. In the morning, I thought it would be an atrocious day because I was so tired and I had not slept much because one of the guys in my room snores every night. It is annoying. But after I got on the bus I was in high spirits because the others were so awake and full of energy. The bus trip was fun but also exhausting.
I can not remember that I have ever seen a city with so much soft dirt like London, maybe Paris, but I am not sure. Very curious. In London, after we got out of the bus, we crossed the millenium bridge and went straight to the Tate Modern. The access is free and so we entered in quickly. It is an impressive museum. There are so many works of famous artists shown, so
I could not see all but I tried to see over all. In one room, there is an exhibition about sex and violence where they have used force to demonstrate art. Really strange but also interesting. We spent two hours in the museum and than we walked along the Thamse and went to a shopping mall where we could buy some food and tourist stuff. Paul and I attended the strangest restaurant in the world. In the countries where I live, it is normal that a steward brings the menu and asks for orders but in this one, we had to do all on our own. I was really surprised. We had sadly not enough time to eat in there so we took a small lunch in a fastfood factory.
