My First Post

I'm really excited for my first post! I've never had a blog before that is my very own.
With my new blog, I intend to improve on my writing and be able to tell others about my life.

One of the most exciting highlights of my week was going to " Cue!" in Rowland Heights with my friends. For those who don't know what "Cue!" is, it's a Japanese store with booths to take fun pictures on the props provided. Once you're finished taking pictures, there's a machine that lets you add backgrounds, pictures, and writing. Then your pictures are printed out onto sticker sheets.

Because it was our first time, be walked in not having the slightest idea of how to start. We decided to start off by finding a good booth. We inserted the money and caught on how to work the machine. My friends and I had the most fun time making up poses and facial expressions. When we got to the decorating stage, it was very crowded as we all wanted to add different things. Once they printed out, we were amazed at how pretty they turned out.

Immediately after, we all agreed on another booth that had a bunch of poles and such like a jungle gym with some seats closer to the camera. After we inserted our money once again, we all got set up on the equipment. All of a sudden, curtains appeared in front of us. Confused, we ran to the front to the seats. That first picture turned out to be horrible. When the curtain went back up, we figured it was going to take a picture with the equipment so we hurried back. When the another colored curtain came down, we ran to the front again. This went on for about two more pictures until my mom finally asked the employee what was happening. She said it takes six pictures in the front and six in the back. By then, the curtains had stopped coming down and we were able to take the pictures we had intended to take on the equipment. Again, the pictures turned out great.

We had a lot of fun figuring out the Japanese buttons and machines. I will surely remember my first "Cue!" the rest of my life!

Interesting, but I'm not sure what you mean about the curtains.

Curtains were coming down in front of the equipment. Is that more clear?
