A visit to the cinema

Last Saturday, me and approximately 40 pupils (Each class 7 students that did well in the exams) and teachers went to the cinema as a reward of our good exam results (That's the reason why exams aren't that bad). We went there not to just watch a movie, we also watched how they broadcast the movies.



We gathered at school at about 10:00 o'clock. Then, we went to Pacific (A shopping center) in an air-conditioned bus. We arrived there in a short time of 15 minutes. The cinema people took us into a room that writes 'Do Not Enter' on the front door.



We saw how hard it was to broadcast the movies, and believe me, you have to be a professional to do this hard job. Amazingly enough, 2 seconds of a movie needs 58 frames, not just the cartoons. A smile in the cartoons take about 58 frames. It doesn't just take talent to be an actor, it also needs $. They showed us how to stick back broken frames. They used TAPE. But if you try to tear the frames apart, you will be surprised.


After all the visiting, It was movie time. We got to watch the movie "The Karate Kid", which i like pretty much. Not just that. The teachers also got us a huge bottle of coke and a pack of popcorn. The show was about 1 hour and a half, and all the people in the cinema loved it. I would give it a 9.0/10.0 review, although it was a remake of an old movie, but this remake is different. Halfway through the movie, all of us had already finished our popcorn and coke.

After the movie, the bus came by and took us home. And that was the end of the trip to the cinema.

Reward is something that makes people more motivated to look ahead. Got motivation, sure come the hardworking. But there are so many ways to give reward. Sometimes just a little word is also can be a reward like talk to ourselve: Shark Boy, you are not bad! Keep up the good job!.....agree with me?
