choices for life
the other week we went to a concert thing called choices for life. we went along and there were over 7000 children there. we sat down and then they had a fake fire drill lol. there were two presenters and through out the whole day we saw snippets of a video about a girl called stacey who started to take drugs and she got in huge trouble for it. we also saw videos about a true story when a boy called paul started to take drugs and stuff because his dad was neglecting him. it was really sad. but we had a game of family fortunes. it was the simpson family againts the adams family. it was just pretend familys. half the hall was on the adams family side *us* and the other half were the opponents. every time our family got it right we would all shout and stamp our feet at the other side it was so fun! there were singers all through the like bell’s boys and a scottish singer but i have forgot her name. haha. there was also a REALLY good play. there were three main characters and it showed their time throuh high school. one of the girls started to take drugs and then the others did it to but one of them died and then at the end they all stood up and said ‘we used to be like you. we used to have a futre. make the right choices’ and i was nearly crying! it was great! then it was the best part! LIL CHRIS PLAYED! he came out and sang two songs, one of which was ch ch ch ch ch checking it out! lol. it was so good! we were all jumping around lyk mad! then we all got goody bags and went back to skl.
