Rossi is STILL our champion
Finally, the H1 race is over. Sadly, we did not win. We got the last place instead. I was really sad to see Rossi being the last in the race. All my team members were depressed to know the results.
However, this is not all. The truth is, trough this race we were able to have stronger bonds among our team member. I believe that this is even more valuable than being the championship. Friendship made is priceless. I really aprreciate Miss Tan's effort for organising this race for us. It is not only about winning but also meant to teach us the importance of teamwork.
On top of that, I would say that we are more determined after the race. Before tha race, we faced several obstacles. Our circuit was not long enough and Rossi was not looking very well. However, all our team members did not give up. All of us did our best to overcome each obstacle. I was really impressed by the power of teamwork.
Last but not least, I would really want to thank all my team members: ally, vitoria, andrea, bern, van, shan qi. You guys are awesome. Without any of you, we would not even be able to carry out the race! Thanks a lot! Through this race, I also get to know each one of you better. And I realise what a great group of friends I have. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

The POSTER!!!! weee :D and the sponsor!!!!
Finally it is Tuesday! Two more days to H1 race! hehe I will be drawing the poster tonight. People out there, I will insert the poster into the blog later. I really hope that you can leave some comments for me to improve on it. I would really appreciate it! =) I cannot wait any longer to draw the poster tonight. All my team members are working really hard for this grand race. I really hope that our effort is not fruitless. After school, I will be going to the school's Popular bookshop to buy some materials for the poster. I will need colour pencils and some colour pens.

And one good news! I found a sponsor for Rossi! It is the Kaytee Forti-Diet Hamster Food. It is a fortified diet which includes a variety of fresh, palatable seeds and grains to ensure that Rossi will enjoy mealtime. Fort-Diet was developed by the nutritional experts at Kaytee to supply all the nutrients pets need. Only the best ingredients go into Forti-Diet for ROSSI!!! This ensures Rossi to be healthy and energetic for the upcoming race!
Last but not least, a lot of thanks to tha Kaytee Trading!

Next Step! -How to design the poster?? =)
It is a Sunday morning! I love weekends but I am really looking forward to going school this week. This is chiefly because of the upcoming exciting Hamster Race! After all the effort my team members and I put in, I am really anxious to see what is going to happen on the 'BIG' day.hehe.
So, the next step is to organise and design a poster. Here are some of the questions which I should think about.
1) The type of paper used
2) Draw it or create it at Photoshop
3) The graphic on the poster
4) The wordings on the poster
5) The choice of colour
I think that is all. It seems to be a long list. haha. Well,first of all, I think a A4- sized paper would be the best choice. Its size is just perfect for a poster. Besides, it is also more convenient as I would be able to stick it around the racing venue during the Hamster Race Day. If I were to choose a bigger piece of paper, I might not be able to find a suitable place to stick the poster. Then, it would be totally pointless designing it.=( Besides, I should also use a PLAIN paper. This is because a plain piece of paper matches with any colours. If i were to use a coloured paper, I would have to consider about the colour of the paper before adding in any other colours. On top of that, I am NOT an artistic person! haha So, I guess I should not take the risk to ruin the poster!
Next, I think I should draw the poster instead of using Photoshop. It is mainly because I do not know how to use Photoshop and I do not have the programme in my computer.haha. So, I would choose to draw the poster. But do not worry!After completing the poster, I will scan it into my computer. Then, I will post it into this blog so that all of you will be able to see it. hehe. I hope it looks great by then.
Well, I was thinking about how to poster should look like for a couple of days. I came out with all sorf of ... umm WEIRD ideas.haha. I pictured Rossi grabbing the trophy on the poster. Then, I realised it was quite impossible because I could not find a trophy that is small enough for Rossi! Sigh. Then, I though of having a poster of Rossi in a race car. And once again, I could not find a suitable race car for Rossi. haha. Well, finally I came out with the most 'possible' design. I would picture Rossi as a COOL racer! hehe. Rossi would be wearing a pair of black sunglasses and posing on the poster. I think it would turn out quite well. hehe
"Rossi Is The BEST" "And The BEST Don't Mess With The Rest" "Cuz' ROSSI is the CHAMPION"
I would be putting in these wordings in the poster. I hope it really works! Personally, I think it is quite cool.haha. Well, ignore me. I am crapping a lot these days. Lastly, is the choice of colours. I think red and black should be the main colour of the poster. Umm..These are the main colours used in a Formula One Race. Besides, the combination of red and black is quite unique and outstanding. Thus, it could easily capture ATTENTION! Then, more and more people would notice Rossi's poster! That would be fantastic! hehe :D
Guess that is all for now. I would be continue searching on the internet to find out more information on the graphics that I could include in the poster. Now, I am waiting for Vitoria to send me a picture of our almighty hamster!hehe I could not wait to start on it.
"ROSSI, OUR CHAMPION"

I made a decision! hehe:D
All a day of serious consideration, I came up with a final decision! This is really great! Not only did I know which method to use, but I am also more sure of how to make it a success. Intinially, the three possible ways are drawing a poster, designing fliers and creating a banner.
My decision is to draw a poster to publicise Rossi! A poster is a simple graphic piece which can convey a message clearly. This is exactly what I need! Using a poster, I would be able to illustrate how great our hamster is! I shall design a poster which can portray Rossi as the best hamster racer.Beside being able to show its redeeming qualities, a poster can also convince others that Rossi will be the one who grabs the champhion title for the Formula One Hamster Race.
Moreover, it is also more effective as a poster can easily attract attention as compared to banner or fliers. People would probably throw the fliers away and ignore the banners hanging around. So, a poster will be the most effective and efficient way to capture attention! And ATTENTION is what I need to publicise Rossi!
On the other hand, a poster is a more economical method compared to printing fliers and banners. If i were to choose to use fliers, I would have to print hundreds and hundreds of copies to be distributed to the public. This will be extremely costly. Hence by using a more economical way such a designing poster, I would be able to save on the cost used for publicity. Thus, more money could be used in other aspects such as food, training, and circuit making. That would be fantastic!
In addition, designing a poster is better than designing a banner because a banner needs a lot of time, money and effort to be completed. A banner invloves a more complicated process. It needs someone who is skillful to paint the banner. Since the grand race is just around the corner, designing a simple poster would be the most reliable way! Besides, I would also have to spend money on the paint needed. Thus, it would be rather costly to do so.
Hence, I am certain that a poster will be the best way to publicise Rossi! Next, I should spend some time thinking on how to design the poster and what materials are needed. I am really excited to see how will the poster look like! I promise that it would be the best poster ever seen!
