v:blog - Simple English Class cooks NZ-Style
So today was Simple English class, watch the video to see a few more of the classmates than the last video I did.
We went around to Elizabeth's house and we cooked Muffins, Scones, and Pikelets. Many of them had never heard of Pikelets at all before, and others were amazed at how easy it was to cook very nice tasting Muffins and Scones.
It was a big success!
Also, I recently invested in a new Tripod, so this is a Bonus Edition v:blog because I include travel footage with commentary on Christchurch's motorway & Cashmere Hills.
Enjoy!
The tracks in the video are:
The Doves - The Last Broadcast - 'Intro'
Chicane - Far From the Maddening Crowds - 'Offshore (original)'

'Alice in Videoland' is the coolest video/DVD rental store in New Zealand.
Situated corner of Tuam and High Streets in the heart of Christchurch (merely under five minutes away from where I flat, no less... hooah), it truly is a sight to behold.
Charlie Chaplin awaits you outside, and inside the fun really begins.
Think of a movie that you liked as a child, or one that you wonder has disappeared into the mist of time, and see if they have it on their website catalogue at
http://www.aliceinvideoland.co.nz/Their website even has a dynamic, searchable MAP so you can go straight to your DVD when you arrive in the flesh.
They've got everything: french, aussie, anime films (and more), action, thriller, sci-fi, geek (that small, dark room you see on the video. Its the best description for it!), kids, TV Series, blah blah blah and blah... *pant pant*
When I first discovered them I hired out 'The Last Unicorn' (sob!) just cause I COULD!
Above: Welcome to Alice in Videoland. Be jealous.
The owner and/or manager was nice enough to let me film around inside. Hooray!
It's pretty eye-catching, I hope you agree. Like... a candyland... where candy were DVDs and you watched them instead of eating them.
Music in the video is 'Busy Child' by
Crystal Method.
