Goodbye, Leonis…

Last week was the last game that we played. Tomorrow is a survey about the game. I really love the game because it is interesting and I can learn something about Social Studies with more understanding. Especially, the part that I was a President and I realise that if I had planned properly, I would have gone up to level 8….Well, it would be bored if we did not have any games anymore. Whatever it is, I just wanna thanks to Mr. Ken for willing letting my class to try out your game.. I really appreciate it. Thanks a lot & Goodbye Leonis!!!

President in Leonis

21February2007

Today, we were playing a role as a President. The job is to make the place be peace and make the place to have more people live happily. This time, the game is quite tough because it has to reach the goal. I was already at mission 2 but suddenly, I failed the mission so I had to start from mission 1 again.
