one final note...
I do not know if our last lot of blogs had to be printed off and put into the drop box with a cover sheet?
but i do not see why when it is all down here by access of internet

As I reflect over this past semester, creativity and communication stands out. It stands out because it was a course on a idea that I was interested in as a life pursuit. Through this course I got to investigate something I never really understood
Throughout my life I was always told in different ways that I was very creative, But to me I thought this just meant I was eccentric and interested...
Night lights with Telecom
On Monday i went along to see the Night lights with Telecom down at the Auckland Ferry terminal.
It was a free event where the public could interact with the light show and i must say it was very impressive. I think it has huge potential to partake in future events or advertising.
If you didnt get along check it out -

Done!
And thats a wrap people!
I have handed in my individual investigation, i am happy with the work i have completed but as with anything there is always room for improvement.
I finished just in time so that i can fly to Queenstown and guess what…..fire a fireworks show!
I hope that minimal marking is on my side, but i have a feeling it may not
To be continued……
Tick Tock

I think i spent about five hours at the library today, At the christchurch central library! which was very helpful found lots of additional books about creativity to add onto De Bonos Theories.
I also had a chance to dig into the New Zealand heritage archives where i looked up old newspaper cuttings and data information about previous New Zealand telethons, i was then able to compare 1988’s...

The young lads went over to America a few years ago and visited the NASA centre and then there idea started rolling from there, if you do anything to do...
