I was on the show


When I was in 5th grade which was about 2 or 3 years ago (I am in 8th now) While You Were Out came and re did my classroom. We had lots of fun and got to help a little. I got to meet Even, and the other people on the show and they were all really nice. They finished the room like 3 hours before my teacher showed up. It was so amazing and fun!!!

Oh cool! Was that the one where Mark Montano designed the room for the science teacher?
I really liked that one. Is the room still holding up or has it changed?
Its great to hear from people who were on the show and get updates on things.
From what I've heard one of the homeowners died recently. :-(
A few others have been auctioning off stuff on ebay.

yes Mark Montano was the designer. My teacher is an elementry school teacher so he tought all the subjects but the room was made to be spacey. There are some things that were removed from the room and things that were made poorly that broke and ofcourse he has junked it up a bit, but the book shelfs and paint and the cool chairs are still there.

I hope the photo booth still works. That was pretty cool. I did like the ceiling lights but I wouldn't be surprised if the fabric came down.
What stuff was poorly made? Stuff out of styrofoam?
I imagine it would be hard not to clutter things up.

Well the photo booth was a box and a digital camera that they gave us. It still works but was taken out of the room when one kid wanted to make it a kissing booth. The lights are actually still up. The carbet was taped together and fell apart quickly. the banbags exploded and the desks got really scratched up. Uhh.. now he is having his students draw on the book shelves for fun and he has rearanged the room a little. I think the hanging planets are still up but the broke often but are easy to fix.

it was really awesome. I remember I walked into school on monday and everyone was like "clean out your desk, While You Were Out is coming." I was a huge fan of the show before so I was freaking out and calling my mom and running up to my sis on the play ground and stuff. It still gives me chills to think that it actually happened. Since then the teacher who signed my teacher up got married and my teacher who the room was made for has had a baby!!!
