Lloyd center! and mac

Sorry there hasn't been an update for a while, I mean it's winter break! I'm not gonna sit around posting all day. Anyways yesterday my family and I went to the Mac store at the Lancaster Mall and we were going to get an iMac but they were out of stock of the one we wanted. So hopefully today they call and we can pick it up.
Also today we are going to the Lloyd Center up in Portland and I am going to go ice skating for the first time. Well we need to leave!

Big little things

I am posting this from a computer at a coffee shop in Portland because we came to see a play called Big little things. It is play at the Imago theatre here in Portland.We are here with Henry and Mika. I have heard good things about this play. I can't figure out how to make a link to the site on this computer because it's really old. The show starts at 2:00 and right now it's 1:37 so we have some time.

Early christmas

Well yesterday we went out to Keizer to buy my new phone. It is and Lg versa. It is a fantastic phone. I was going to have to wait till Christmas to use it but my parents are nice and let me use it. Well I have a busy schedule for the next 2 days. 1. I have a birthday party to go to tomorrow. 2. I have a elementary school reunion sleepover with my two friends we haven't seen since the end of the 5th grade school year. So I doubt I will update too much over that time. So I wish you all a very merry Christmas (or Hanuka or Quanza) :-)

Blind side

Today we went to see "The Blind Side" with Henry and Mika. It was a very well done movie, Sandra Bullock did a fantastic job as a mother, Tim McGraw played a funny father in this true story. I never would have guessed that I would enjoy this movie but I was wrong. This was a funny and very well laid out movie. I would give 3 and 1/2 stars out of 4.

Birthday party

So today I went to my friend Coleman's birthday party at Pietro's pizza. We played a round of lazed tag and it was fun. Coleman got ranked 1 and I got ranked 2 so it was close. Then we played some video games. After that we played a round of minigolf. On the last hole 2 people got the jackpot. :-(

Wow, really? another sleepover?

Yes, I slept over at Henry's house last night. He will sleepover at my house tonight and we are making movies all night. My student conference is today and REALLY don't want to go. But I have to. Life sucks

More shop!

So finished my banana hanger and here is a picture of it. I also made an ice scraper out of plastic, I don't have a picture of it because my dad put it in his car. So right now in shop I am making a box out of metal. I just need to weld it and I will be done.

Special Olympics Bowling

Well today was a big day for Nick because it was the day of his special Olympics bowling tournament in Portland. I played my iPod touch on the way up and when we got there we had to wait a while for Nick to start. In his first game he got a double and ended with a 125. Then in the second game he got a 112. Overall on Nick's lane he got fourth place, which was kind of disappointing to him. After bowling we went to the Washington Square Mall. At the mall we went to Dick's sporting goods and Nick was looking for a Blazer's t-shirt but didn't find it. Then we ate at the Cheesecake Factory with Kris and Kyle. We went to the Mac store for a while then headed home.

All-nighter

So I sometimes go to Nathan's church on Wednesday nights to have fun. But last night there was an all-nighter where we stayed up all night, from 6:00 PM to 7:00 AM. It was a whole bunch of fun. First we went to the Kroc center. It was SO MUCH FUN! The water slide there was super fast and long. I played some basketball too. Then we came back to church. We played a couple of games and then at 1:00 in the morning, we went bowling at town and country lanes. That was fun too, I got a 124 and a 96. Then when we got back, we had to do challenge. Nathan had to drink a concoction of sardines, mustard, mayonnaise, relish and water. So he took one sip and spat it out right away. It was funny. Then we had free time until 7:00 AM when we would be picked up. I had a good time.

OMSI

So today there was no school so my parents, Nick and Mika and Henry and I went to OMSI to see the new exhibit SCREAM! You have to face your fears at this exhibit. When you walk in you first face a fear of animals. In this room there are three tanks. In one, there is a snake, in another, there is a tarantula, and in the last one, a scorpion. There was a black tube coming from one tank to a box with an area you put your hand in. Then you go to the next one which is fear of electric shock. You put your finger in this little hole and it shocks you. Them there was fear of loud noises. Where you sit down in front of a camera and you wait and then out of nowhere a huge bang goes off and it records your reaction. Then fear of falling where they strap you into this big, rectangular thing that is standing straight up and the it drops you really fast. At the end of it there was, THE GUILLOTINE! Where you put your head in and there is even a basket to catch your head in. There is a mirror so you can see the blade drop and ALMOST cut off your head. IT WAS FUN.

Reveiw

Sorry I haven't reviewed Christmas carol so here it is. "A Christmas Carol" is sort of like the original. It does have some kind of scary parts and weird parts. But it told a good story. So since I have seen the original already, I will base my review off of that. I give this movie 2 1/2 stars out of 4.

Well the weekend has finally ended. Over this weekend Nathan spent the night on Friday, we went bowling on Saturday, I slept over at Henry's last night and now I am sitting at home blogging because I have nothing better to do.

So here is what has happened so far this weekend. Nathan is still here from when he slept over yesterday, we went bowling and now we are going to see the movie " a Christmas carol" so I will rate and review when we get back home.

Halloween sucks

Ok so tonight is Halloween and I am not trick or treating. I am not trick or treating because Nathan and I were helping with this thing at his church and near the end of it I threw up. So I get home and then I throw up again. While I was sleeping last night I woke up and threw up too. So I missed trick or treating and the costume contest we always have at bowling.

Blazer Game

So last night I went to a Blazer Basketball game with my parents and my brother. When we got there, we ate dinner at this tiny buffet next to the Rose garden called, "The Game," I seriously would not recommend it. We got to watch this really cool group of kids around my age play some sweet percussion music. When we left last night the score was 67 to 66 Blazers were up, (oh, by the way the Blazers played the Denver nuggets.) But the Nuggets won by 3 points in the end.

Weekend

I have had a fantastic weekend so far. Henry spent the night yesterday And Kris and Kyle came over and spent the night too. Today was bowling, I sucked the second game and rocked the end of the third game. I am having good weekend.

Where the wild things are

So I saw where the wild things are and here is my review. Where the wild things are is a story about a young boy named Max who goes to an island to meet the wild things. In the movie, the storyline is much more complex than the book. It is a sad story but a very well laid out plot. The characters each have their own unique personalities while acting the same as one another. Spike Jonze did a fantastic job on this movie, I would not recommend it to children who cannot fully understand the differences between characters and the relationships to each other. I would give this movie 3 out of 4 stars.

Where the wild things are

So today we are going with Mika and Henry to see where the wild things are. I will rate and review when we get back, and no I don't have an iPhone, I have an iPod touch.

Jack's birthday party

So today after Nathan left I waited until 3:30 to go to my friend jack's birthday party. He is on our bowling team. When I got there we had a nerf war for an hour and a half. Our base was in the garage and we got a smoke machine in our base. Then we did presents and ate pizza and played flag football and our team lost. I also will review Land of the lost, it was a humorous movie with a storyline that makes sense and I give it 4 1/2 out of 5 stars

Another sleepover

So Nathan is sleeping over again and we will go bowling tomorrow and have lots of fun. We are going to watch Land of the Lost tonight, I will rate and review.

Mandy speech

So for health class so far, I have written 2 skits and both of them were awesome and hilarious. Right now we have to write and give a speech on something we value so I am doing mine on our dog Mandy. I gave already written it but I still need to practice it. So that's what I'm doing in health so I guess I will just go through my classes backwards. In PE we are going to run the mile in our class, this week we are doing conditioning to get ready. In math we are focusing on linear relationships between graphs, equations and tables. e.g. y=24+12x things like that. In computers we have done Mavis Beacon (typing program) Microsoft Paint, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher, Paint shop pro and animation shop pro. Today is the last day of the first 6 week term so I will be switching classes ( I am in this thing called the wheel and I do a different elective every term) to shop, wood and metal.So in block (Reading, writing, Social studies) we are learning how to locate information in ads, movie times etc.

So that's all I am doing, I know, not that much.

Birthday party

So today I went to Malibu Raceway for my 12th birthday party. We took Nathan, Henry, my friends Jaret, Bryan, Jimin and Aric. It was SOOO much fun! We drove like crazy, played video games and ate pizza! My real birthday is on the 15th. For my birthday party I got quite a few gift cards and some candy. I am getting an ipod touch for my real birthday. I is a happy camper.

Toy story double feature

Today at 3:00 I am going to see the Toy Story and Toy story 2 double feature in 3-D! I will review and rate when we get back, it is a 2 hour 53 minute feature, about 3 hours so wish me luck. I have my trusty Jelly Bellies. :-)

Bye mom!

So tonight at 6:00 am my mom is getting on a plane with my sister Kris to go to Colorado to see my relatives. She has to leave at 3:00 am to get to the airport. I will miss her but I hope she has fun. :-)

sorry again

Sorry no posts in a while, I have been very busy. Today I am going to a house warming party for Kristin and her boyfriend Kyle.

Sorry

Sorry I haven't posted for a while. I have been busy with middle school. So yea, life is great and uh... OH YEA last night I went to Nathan's house for a party. There were people from our small group at church. First we had an airsoft fight. First we played a normal round of tag. How it works is there are 2 teams each at opposite ends of the area you're playing in. The rules are if you get hit once then you have to go back to your base, if you get shot again the you have to go inside. Your goal is to kill everyone on the opposite team or make them surrender. Then we played capture the flag. It's simple, try to get the other teams flag and take it to your base. If you get hit go to your base. My team won, mainly because I got to use an automatic gun that time. Then we played medic. Your medic can revive people that have died out in the field. Your goal is to kill the other team's medic. Then we watched Extreme Days the movie. Well I need to leave. We are going to the grape stomp at the Willamette valley vineyard with mika and henry. BYE

Judson middle school

So yesterday the 7th and 8th graders started school and it was CRAZY. The bus was way more packed and the halls were super crowded. I am getting used to it though.

1st day of school

Today was my first day at Judson. It was pretty fun. I love having a locker. Nathan my AWESOME locker partner baught a whole jug of pretzels and put them in our locker. I have some awesome teachers too. Tomorrow the 7th and 8th graders come so that should be fun. Anywho wish me luck!

Labor day

Well today is Labor day and that means I HAVE TO START SCHOOL TOMORROW which I am sort of nervous about. But today we are having a Labor day BBQ with all of our friends. Mika and Henry are coming. Our friend johnny or as we call him: The grill guru will be coming and helping my dad with the grilling. Johnny is bringing tri-tip, his AWESOME pulled pork, and beef ribs. Also my dad's friend ken is coming to mainly be our bartender. So it should be a very fun last day of summer.

UP!

Ok so today I am going to see the new movie UP! For the 3rd time. I think it is a very good movie with a well written storyline. Oh and we are seeing it at Nothern lights theatre pub. So I will give it a rating of 4 and 1/2 stars out of 5. You should see it if you haven't.

Oregon state fair

Today I went to the Oregon State Fair with our friends henry and mika. When we first got there henry and I rode the Starship 2000 which is a ride where you just stand up against the inside walls and it spins really fast. So fast that you can lift your feet off the ground and you will stick to the walls. Then we saw Travis Fox who is a funny hypnotist. Then we got some dinner and came home. It was a long day.

Sorry

Sorry I haven't posted anything about Matilda yet. It turns out when we checked her medical record her real name is Mandy, so that is her official name. So here are some pictures of her AND some pictures from when we went to the Oregon Zoo with our friends Henry and Mika. So enjoy!

Matilda

So we were not able to get Braxton. He was going to be our new dog but somebody adopted him. So we went there tonight and we found this AWESOME pug named Matilda. If you want to find out more about her here is the link to her page: http://www.willamettehumane.org/animal/shelter/adopt/available_pets/ THANKS

Aric

I just got back from a sleepover at my friend Aric's house. We had a lot of fun. For dinner we roasted hot dogs and s'mores over a warm fire. Then we watched some movies and went to bed. This morning we had rasberry pancakes for breakfast. It was a really great sleepover.

Reese

So yeserday we went to the gravens house to look at their new puppy Reese. He is a Boykin Spaniel and he is just the cutest thing. The cat is their new cat Denaly (den-alee) or lil' D.

Last day of jumpstart

Today was my last day of jumpstart. So after my class we went to the cafeteria and ate lunch and then we started walking to northern lights. We saw Night at the Museum battle of the Smithsonian. It was the 2nd time I saw it and it was just as funny the 2nd time. I would probably give it 4 out of 5 stars.

Jumpstart day 2

Yesterday was my second day of jumpstart and it was FUN. So the class I took is just playing games all day. It's super fun to just kill at ping-pong, dominate at foosball and I haven't played air hocky yet. After our class we had lunch in the cafeteria. In the cafeteria there were 3 lists. One was yellow, one pink and one blue. These lists were lists of the people who would be on which bus. People on the pink list went to the pink bus. (the bus wasn't really colored pink.) Blue list on the blue bus and so on. Bowling was really fun beacause they turned off the lights and made it blacklight bowling. I had 1 soda and 1 pack of m&ms. Today we are walking down to northern lights theatre pub to see Night at the Museum 2. This should be a very good day.

Jumpstart day 1

Today was the first of three days of jumpstart at judson. Today we got oriented with the school and learned about the electives and ect. After that we played some games with some people from YWAM or Youth with a mission. Camden or flamefreak works there. Tomorrow we will be doing the classes we signed up for. Bryce, Nathan and I are signed up for a ping-pong, air hockey and foosball class. After we do our classes tomorrow we are going to town and country bowling to bowl. Then on Wednesday after our classes we are going to Nothern Lights theatre pub to see a movie. IT WILL BE AWESOME!

Past, present and future

So I am going to tell you the past, prestent and future of today. Past: This morning My dad's friends Hanz (Honz) and Jay and I (and my dad) went disc golfing at corban college. We had a bunch of fun. It is a 9 hole course very short but super technical. On one hole I got a 2 which was a birdie on that hole. I had a lot of fun. After that is was around lunchtime so all of us (and nick and my mom) ate lunch at french press. French Press is this place the makes french press coffee and the BEST crepes ever. (look up crepes if you have no clue.) My brother had his special olympics bowling practice today and on the way to french press they stopped at Toys 'R' Us and baught this new version of the game clue. It sends clues for the game TO your cell phone. So we just finished a round of that and here I am. Present: I am waiting for time to go by. FUTURE: We are going to a Volcanoes Minor league baseball game. Our friend Johnny has seats for box seats or a suite.

That is why I am Phycic... :-D

Pacific City 2

So today we went to pacific city and these are some pics. When we were packing up the car, we let Riley out and he just hopped into the back of the car like he OWNED it. Then when we got to the beach we started to play some golf but then we started toward this HUGE sand dune. We wanted to climb it. It was easily around 1000 feet tall and MAN it got steep. My mom, my dad and I all made it to the top. Nick did a really good job he made it over half way. (that is really good for him.) Running down the hill was SUPER FUN. I just wish I had a sand board or something to ride down on. Then we ate at this place called the pelican brewery. They had the best fries I have ever tasted. Then after we ate we went to the Village Merchants a group of stores and then we went to the marketplace 1. beacause I had to go pee and 2. I wanted some fudge. Then we came home and here I am blogging about it.

Pacific city

Today we will be in Pacific city OR. I wish we could bring Riley and Cosmo but we are going this restaraunt called the pellican brewery. We also bought this toddlers golf set to play golf on the beach. I will post a pic of the golf clubs after the beach. Oh, and we are getting a healthy breakfast at Mcdonalds on the way. Wish us luck!

Sorry

Sorry I haven't posted for a while I was at nathan's house and they don't have internet. So we watched JAWS on their new projector screen. It is on the back of their house and they will set up their inflatable pool back there too so they can watch movies while in the pool. They were trying to set it up but there was a hole in the pool so I think they are getting a new one.

Swimming

Today I am going swimming with my friends Nathan and Bryce. Also my friend Aric will be there. It will be oodles of fun. WISH US LUCK! :-D

Today

So last night my friend nathan slept over at my house. My mom had tennis this morning so Nathan my brother Nick and I were alone for about 3 hours. Then we went to Arby's to have lunch. Then we went to Judson middle school for locker sign-up day. Nathan is my locker partner and our locker is in a very good spot in the school. Two of our friends are right next to use. Bryce is one of them he goes to our church. Then there is Jenny, she was in my 5th grade class. Oh and there is Sean. He was in my pre-kindergarten class and in my drama camp I took at Corban college. Then Nathan, Bryce and I went bowling. Overall... it was a pretty average day. ;-)

yesterday and today

Yesterday I slept over at my friend Nathan's house. We caught 2 crawdads, 2 frogs 6 geckos and 2 fish. I had a lot of fun. Now he is going to sleep over at my house. Wish us luck!

The party

So I got home from the party and it was pretty fun. First I had some food and a coke. Then I played ping-pong with Will. He is Ken graven's son and we had a lot of fun playing ping-pong. Then I went down and played some badminton with my dad and my mom it was a lot of fun. Then i got into the big bouncy castle and repeatedly went down the sllide in it. I also played bocce ball (if you don't know what it is google it) and that was fun too. Overall it was a great party and I probably had about 5 cokes while I was there. IT WAS FUN.

Party

Today my dad's doctor friend Ken Graven is holding the annual medical picnic at his house and he has a BIG house so it should be lots of fun there will be 2 bouncy castles (one big and one small) soccer, volleyball, badminton, table tennis (my fave) air hockey, croquet, bocce ball, foosball and frisbee. It is a potluck so there will be tons to eat. So I will tell more about it after it when I get home.
