Tannenbaum's model of giftedness

Chess Tournament

Last week, 24 people went to the chess Tournament in Dunedin and one of them was me.  My team came third and my brother's team came second.  I won 4 games, 1 loss and 2 stalemates.  We drove up in a bus and came back down in it.  The games were hard and others were sometime easy.  The first 2 games I won, then a loss, next was a stalemate and again was a win and then a stalemate and a win for the last game.  On the way home we had subway for tea.

Kowhaiwhai patterns

Last week we started to draw our Kowhaiwha patterns or Tapa cloth, and I decided to pick Kowhaiwhai patterns.  I had some trouble thinking of what design I wanted to do but I eventually I thought of something. Today I started to paint my Kowhaiwhai pattern and today I finished it.  I gave it a red inside and gave it a black background.  I think that it looks awesome.  What do you think?
