It's a wrap! (well, almost)

2008. It's coming to an end. I feel like only yesterday I wrote that wrap-up of 2007, and here we are, waiting for this eventful year to come to an end, and at the same time, we don't want this to fade. So we have this roll-call of events that happened this year. And my 50th post for 2008!

That's a more melodramatic version. Here, see it the "vanilla" way.

200 is ending, while we don't want it and want it to. And we have this "year of vats", another fancy word for wrap up of 2008 events. Let's go month-wise, shall we? And this is gonna be a long post, one of ym hardest as well. Hyper links take SUCH a long time! There's no "hyper" about it.

January:
My 12th birthday, on the 4th.
My VI-C class got a class court(paper ball massacre, remember that one? If not, go here)  on the 9th and our 5th Science teacher.
And we got a new Bio teacher(Read about her here)


February:
We played throwball with teachers. Read it here.

I told the Bloggifyers Munnetra Kazhagam what I liked, disliked and kablooieliked. Read it here.

Go read, I think you'll enjoy.

May:
I went to Peter Fest, wrote an article on it, and got published!
Okay, so you read the "Official Published Article" here and now:
Creativity Fest at Crossword, T. Nagar
By Varsha Mohan
Class 6, PSBB School, T. P. Road, T. Nagar


On the 5th of May, I had attended an Arts and Crafts Fest at Crossword in Kuppu Arcade, Venkatanarayan Road, T.Nagar.
It was organized by Mr. Rajashekar, the stores manager and was hosted by Shweta and Shantru. It started off at 6:30 pm with a welcome note and all of us introducing ourselves.
A dozen kids of all ages, from 3-14 came here and had a fun time.
We were divided into two groups, one for the tiny tots and one for the elder ones. We played lots of games and created fun items.
The tiny ones made a small teddy bear, which they got to name themselves. One of the bears was named 'I don't know'. Then they sang a fusillade of rhymes.
The elder ones had to create a Mickey Mouse key chain hanger made out of ribbons, chart paper and thermocol. It was really a messy activity but a load of fun.
There were supposed to be some contests but they didn't have time.
Crossword is also a nice place to buy books and if you have time, just sit and read. Shwetha, one of the hosts, also explained to us about animation and taught us how to draw cartoons, starting with a simple circle. There was time for all of us to talk about our favourite cartoon character, which I stated as Candice or Ferb from Phineas and Ferb, a show on Disney Channel at 4:30pm on Mondays-Fridays.
All of us there at Crossword had a great time creating items for ourselves with unique touches.
I made a lot of friends there and if you go there, may be coming Sunday (May 11) at 6:30 pm, you can also participate.
But don't worry if there is no fest on that day; spend time with yourself, reading books. It'll be nice to catch up with yourself. I had a blast, and I reckon that you'll have as much as a blast yourself.
And my version here.

I put pics of myself on my blog, here.

I admitted I was a slob here. And I wrote an account of my train ride here.

June:
School opened. Darn.
YOCee gave me a page( It's listed here.)
I got grandoise thought listed here.  And I gave this post me the slob(again!) here. And understatement of the century was made here.

July:
Not much, just one post. And it was like a battle-ground one, where Lavanya combats inoruvan. Read it here.
