Game Review: Despicable Me - Minion Rush

Despicable Me - Minion Rush is a game that is available on the Android Market and the App Store. It is a free game available for anyone with a touch screen device. It is a game that is basically like the worldwide phenomenon Temple Rush.

 In the game you can upgrade pick ups, your character and buy new characters. During the game you travel through various scenes including Gru's Lab, The Neibourhood, The Beach & The Evil Lair. Whilst playing the game you collect bananas which is basically the despicable currency. You can also collect pickups which give super abilities.

This game was made by Gameloft Studios and was released in November 2013.
I would recommend this game for younger children, around the age of 5-8, because along the way you experience funny moments, videos & pictures. It is an all round enjoyable game.

Tauranga Boys College Orientation Day

Today the year 8 boys had a visit to Tauranga Boys College for our orientation. We firstly entered the gym and were greeted my the year 9 boys performing a haka. We then moved out to our form rooms with a tour guide/teacher. His name was Mr H. We were given some forms to fill out about ourselves. After that we were taken to the GYYT (Graeme Young Youth Center.) We found out that we were in the Accelerant System. After that we were shown around the rest of the school. We met back in the Gym for our final briefing and all of the extra information about the school.

Dystopia: A Ruined Future

Describing Dystopian Picture

 A row of red lights descending in the distance. Cars lined up like an army of red ants in battle formation. Murky smoke rising from the many factories on the hill.
I clenched my wheel in anger, "Get out of the way!" All that was in my head was frustration. The seat beneath me started to reach great temperatures.

12 Hour Relay Poem

12 Hour Relay, Can't Get Enough!
2013, It was so tough.
The weather was nice, warm and sunny.
We still just kept on running and running.
At the end of the night we were all really puffed.
But with the amount of laps I did I was really chuffed.
