Best Student Blogs 2013 - Edublog Awards

Reblogged from Blackwatertown: It's true. Early morning calls from TV - "Can we come round and film you?" Radio stations. Promotional CDs. Music video. Posters. The lot.

"We need to leave. Right NOW! That house is cursed." Nathanael shouted. "Why? I thought you wanted to play knock and run." Natasha replied. You could see the tears in her eyes as Natasha loves to play knock and run. Natasha is only 11, she has extremely long brown hair.

After running three blocks the partners dived into a bush , gasping for breath. "Why are you so scared of him?" Asked Liz, puzzled and frightened by how he acted. Just as Caleb started to reply the man bounded through the bushes. "Aha, I've found you!" He triumphed.

Black. All I could see was black. I felt my eyelids flutter and my tongue moisten my lips. "Oh good, you're awake." A voice, portraying it's owners old age, breaks through my hazy mind. I sit up, but colourful spots appear in front of my eyes and my head starts to throb.

"Who are you?" They were staring into the eyes of the Musomic, with luscious shaggy chestnut hair, a raggedy orange shirt and ripped denim jeans. The Musomic led them to his underground lair! Climbing up stairs, they found themselves in a house, a haunted house.

This piece has a lot of emotion to it and also a lot of challenging parts to it. When playing a duet, both players have to listen to each other in order to play the piece well. Sarah and I always have trouble with that as we both want to be in charge, however for this piece, the piano set the beat.
