The last post of the summer

This is the last post of the summer. I'd like to thank Karen and grandma and grandpa for reading it this summer. Today we went to Cuttyhunk on the boat. Cuttyhunk is an island not many people live there. It was a very nice day to go out on the boat. Tomorrow we are going to Boston to see Grandma and Grandpa. After we got home from the boat we were going to watch Stargate Atlantis but there was no new one:(. I am excited about going into fifth grade. This the first year that we have lockers. We also went to the dump this morning. It was very very very boring. We also went to the farm and saw peanut the turtle.

Day 65

This morning I watched Mythbusters. Today they tested the fastest ways to cool a six-pack of beer. The fastest way is to put the beer in a cooler and spray a CO2 fire extinguisher in it for 3 minutes. The fastest ordinary way to cool a beer is to put it in a cooler with ice and salt. For lunch today we went to Friendly's. Forget lunch! For dessert I had one scoop of Chocolate Brownie Cookie Crunch and one scoop of Cake Batter ice cream topped with hot fudge. I also went to the library. I found out they had graphic novels!!! I the first five volumes of One Pieces. It is about a boy who want to be a pirate. It is very interesting. Now Mom doesn't have to spend so much money in graphic novels.

Day 62 - 64

2 days ago we went to the Independance mall. We got some more school clothes. Esther also got a build-a-bear. It is a zebra. She got some clothes for the Zebra to. She named it striper. I went to game stop and got the games Castlevania Dawn of Sorrow. It is about a man that has to kill bad guys. I also got Nanostray 2 to it is like the arcade game were you control the ship and shoot the badguys. Yesterday I went to the grocery store. I we got a lot of stuff. Then Jarrett came over. He slept over. We played a lot of DS. We played GRID and Nanostray 2 in download play. Esther played with us. The next day I we went to the beach. Esther was being really mean to us. We were using the boogie board once and it was my turn to ride it and she won't give me a turn!! I had a lot of fun. We are going to go to karate today. It is the last summer fun day. Today is pretzel day. I get pretzels after class. We also do games with the pretzels.

Day 60 and 61

Yesterday I went to my friend Cooper's house. We played Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare. In the game you try to kill the other player(s). Cooper won every time. For almost the rest of the day I played GRID. I made a lot of progress in the U.S.A. Today I went to Aaron's and Adam's house. Their mom is my mom's friend. We went swimming in their pool. They have a really nice pool. We went swimming for 2 and a half hours. We went to the Conservatory where I was supposed to have a french horn lesson. It was cancelled though, so we went to the supermarket and bought bell peppers, orange juice, and gum; then, we went home. The lesson is going to be next week (unless it is cancelled again).

Day 58 &59

Yesterday was my last day of camp. Luckily I didn't have to do kickball again today. I did Capture the Flag though. Connor, my friend, made me a friendship bracelet. I love the colors. The color are green,red, and blue. Today Dad and I went to see Longshots. It is about a girl that is really good at football. Her dad ran away. It is sort of a sad movie. It is really good though. For lunch Dad and I went to Jimmy's BLT(breakfast, lunch, Takeout). I would of rated it 6 out of 10. There is a car show going on today and tomorrow. Dad and I might go tomorrow.

Day 54-57

I had camp Farley until Thursday. On Thursday I went to the open house at Morse pond school. I met my teacher and my team teacher. My team teacher teaches math and social studies. I also had lunch with Dad and Mom at Red Robin. I had the Banzai burger with a Boca Pattie. The Banzai Burger has teriyaki sauce, pineapple, mayonnaise, lettuce and, tomato. While I wait for the next Naruto to come out I am reading Toto. Toto is about a boy who wants to go on an adventure, so he sneaks aboard a ship. On that ship were gangsters and a dog that can turn into a monster. My crocs broke so we went to Olympia sports to get some new ones. They are blue and have the red sox symbol on them. I picked another elective on Wednesday. I picked kickball. I HATE it. The counselors aren't even paying attention. They serve a pretty good lunches. They almost never serve soup without meat though. I was watching Tae Kwon do this morning. The United States won bronze in the 57 KG woman. China won gold in the 67 KG mens. Tae Kwon do is fun to watch.

Day 53

Today I went to camp Farley. It was fun. I did archery. I good at it. I have a friend who has done it a lot and I am just as good as him and this is my first time. I also went swimming. One of my favorite things that I did was fort building. I teamed up with Jake and we passed all the tests (but so did everyone). Ours was the biggest. People kept taking our sticks so we barely had enough.

Day 52

Today we invited Jack and his dad out on the boat with us. Jack's dad caught a black bass. If it was one inch bigger we could of kept it. We also went tubing. I went off the wake. Then when I got close to the wake I would hang 10. It was fun. We also went to Basset's island. Dad caught a huge blue crab. The body was about nine inches. On the way home it was bumpy. Jack told my dad to go fast. We got to at least 30 miles per hour. Our boat can get up to 40 mile per hour. When we got back Mom took Esther, Jack, and I home. Jack's dad and my dad stayed to clean up the boat.

Day 51

Today I went to the beach. The beach we went to was called Old Silver. It is usually full by 10, we got there at 9 and we were the only ones there. We went swimming for two and a half hours. Then I had my friend Jarrett over. We had fun. Our neighbor Jack invited us over to swim while Jarrett was here. Jarrett and I played on there Heineken rubber raft. Jack and Esther tried to get it from us. Then Jarrett and Jack and I had a jumping contest. I won on most original. I jumped off the dock then pushed off the rubber raft into the water.

My 100th post!!

I have written 100 posts so far!! I showed Keighl my gecko today. Yes! I beat him at basketball again. We went to Petco. We got some more crickets for Spot. We also took Esther to her art class. She has a lot of fun and I have time away from Esther. Next week we are going to Camp Farley. I hope I am doing archery. I have always wanted to do archery. I have watched it in the Olympics. I also want to do outdoor living. I like watching Survivor Man on TV and I want to learn how to build a shelter. My mom was just talking to her belly (how weird).

Day 49

Today I went to the beach. I went swimming. Our friend Jack was there. Esther and I had ice cream from the ice cream truck. I had the worlds sourest snow cone. It was extra sour sour apple. Esther had cherry explosion sorbet. I was really windy. The are was really cold so I stayed in the water. I played splash tag with Esther and Jack. Then we moved on to ball tag. Grandma and grandpa left today. Dad was already at work when they left though. I miss grandma and grandpa. Luckily they will be staying in Boston for the next few months:)!!

Day 48

I got my gecko!!!! I had special names picked out depending on whether it was a boy or a girl, but I found out when I got it that you can't tell the sex until they're older. So I named it Spot. I've started to bond with it, but it still won't let me pick it up. Grandma and Grandpa are here. We went to the Chart Room for dinner. I had broccoli n' cream soup and grilled cheese with tomato. The soup was really good. I saw my teachers from 3rd and 4th grade there. It was Mrs. Karson's 40th birthday. Grandpa unloaded some of my dad's old stuff and I got his old puzzle ball and his fencing mask (he is going to teach me how to fence in the winter:).

Day 47

I didn't stay the whole night at Gibson's house:(. They weren't going to go to sleep and I was tired. I did have fun at party though! I lost one of my games at the party, Gibson's Mom said they were going to clean up tomorrow and they would find it. Gibson just called and said he found it so I could come and pick it up. I asked if they went to sleep at all. He said " we went to sleep at 4:00 AM." I had been saving up for a gecko and I finally have enough money for the gecko. I'm going to clean out the fish tank and use it for my gecko. It is probably just dusty so I could probably get him tomorrow:)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Day 46

Today we went out on the boat. We went tubing. Mom has the speed record at 20 MPH. Esther and I both tied her. It was really flat so we could go really fast on the tube. We could stay on a lot longer to. There is this show my dad and I watch called Stargate Atlantis. My favorite episode so far this season is the one were Ronan gets captured. My favorite character is Ronan because he is a Warrior. I can't wait to go to Gibson's party(review day 45). Finally a night away from Esther. I'm going to go swimming at Gibson's party also.

Day 45

Yesterday Gibson and I went to the 99 Restaurant with Mom and Esther. Gibson and I had toasted ravioli. I finished it all. Gibson ate all but three ravioli. We sang Pocketful of Sunshine,while we waited for our food. Strangely, no one looked at us weirdly. Saturday, he is having his birthday party. I got him a card that makes sounds when you open it. On the front it says "How does 50 bucks for your birthday sound?" Then when you open it, it bucks like a chicken 50 times. I am also going to get him a present but I don't know what to get him. Dad might get me the next Naruto volumes (number 30-31). In the last volume I read, Naruto is outside the Atsuki's hideout. Inside Naruto, there is the nine-tailed fox spirit. The Atsuki want to take the spirit and use it for themselves. They are trying to rescue Gaara (he has the one-tailed spirit inside him). There were all the spirits (one through nine) but now only these two are left (that we know about).

Day 44

Today I played LIFE with Mom. She won. She had $ 1,600,000. I only had $ 1,330,000:(. I kicked her butt two days ago in LIFE: Twist and Turns. LIFE: Twist and Turns is a modern version of LIFE. There is a Life pod (kind of like a calculator) that keeps track of all your money and Life points. Life Points are like Life tiles in LIFE. I'm bringing Gibson to Bring-a-Buddy day but he isn't sleeping over. We are having dinner out somewhere. We will probably go to the 99 Restaurant. Gibson and I are vegetarians. I have been a vegetarian for about 6 months now. Gibson has been a vegetarian for his whole life. His Mom is vegan so he was raised as a vegetarian. Did you know more than 25% of the world is vegetarian?

Day 43

Today I had my friend Gibson over. We went to the park. There is a library at the park. Gibson didn't want to go into the library. I might have Gibson over for a sleepover tomorrow. Tomorrow at karate it is Bring a Buddy day. I am going to bring Gibson to karate, then he might sleep over!!!!!!!! Tonight for dinner we are having meatball subs. I am having veggie meatballs. My dad isn't happy because some builder guys are putting stakes on our property. They are building the bike path. It is going to go behind our house.

Day 42

Today was my first full day at home. It was pretty dull. I watched a lot of TV. We did have to do some grocery shopping. We went to the Grand Union. It was having some work done on the outside; it could use some improvements. We saw Eileen there. Eileen is our baby sitter. She was taking care of Gooey while we were in CA. I had a french horn lesson. I know half a scale!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's really fun to play the french horn. A lot of people will tell you the french horn is really hard, but it isn't, it's fun. I love to play the french horn. That is all I did today(that and write my blog). Pretty boring huh?

Day 41

Today I was on an airplane (and at the airport). Our plane was delayed because the plane we were supposed to go on had something wrong with the engine. Then (to make it worse) the pilot said the engine wouldn't be fixed for eight to ten hours!!!! Luckily they had a plane coming in from New York and we would get on that plane:). But the people that were supposed to get on that plane couldn't because we were getting on it. That's their problem though! I played Nintendo DS most of the way. The game I played was Bionicle Heros. In the game you are a Bionicle and you have to kill the Piraka(the bad guys). It's FUN.

Day 36-40

On Sunday I went to watch Indiana Jones : the kingdom of the crystal skull. It was good but I didn't like how there was aliens in it. Then we packed up for Yosemite. On Monday we drove to Yosemite. It was pretty boring. We got in trouble for being to loud:(. Tuesday we were very tired because there were some drunk college kids next to are tent partying all night. That morning we woke up at six to go horse back riding. I hated it but, my sister loved it. My horse was named Moose, Esther's was named Peco, Mom rode Poco, and My dad rode on Prusila. My horse was slow. Then we moved into another lodge called Curry Village. I had the best sleep in a while. The next day we took a bus up to Glacier Point and hiked down. I loved it and my sister hated it. Wednesday we walked to lower Yosemite falls. It was amazing. Esther got a little souvenir raccoon. I didn't get anything at Yosemite. Then we drove to Sequoya. That was boring also. In Sequoya we slept in hotel. The next day we saw the tree that has the largest volume in the world. It's called General Sherman. Then we walked up 399 steps to Moro rock. You can alot at the top. The last thing we did was drive under a red wood tree. It was cool. Then we drove to Livermore. That was boring too. Today I went flying with grandpa and Uncle Rob in his plane and had breakfast at Two-niner diner. I had Cinnamon french toast it was good. Then we went over the Golden Gate bridge. I loved it.

Day 35

Today we went to San Fransisco. We also went to china town. I got a shirt that said Got Rice and Esther got some Chinese PJ's. Then we went on a tour of China town. Only men got to perform in Chinese opera in olden days. Most Chinese moved here at the time of the gold rush. Most of them were from the Pearl River Delta region. It was a really really poor region. They were also right next to a river and there was a lot of flooding. They didn't really come for the gold as to improve there life.

Day 34

Today I saw Journey to the Center of the Earth. It was in 3D. I saw it with Esther and Grandma. My mom and dad saw The Dark Knight. Journey to the Center of the Earth ended about 45 minutes before The Dark Knight so we went to Barnes and Nobles. I got the next two volumes of Naruto. I am obsessed with Japanese Graphic novels. They are actually really good. I suggest picking one up there are really good. The best ones are Naruto. For lunch we went to Fuddruckers. Fuddruckers specialty is burgers. They give you a plain burger and there is like a salad bar with the toppings I had a veggie burger.

Day 33

Today I went to the Giants game. It was fun. The Giants pitchers name was Matt Cain. They played the Washington nationals. The final score was 1-0 Giants. Matt Cain threw his second shut out. There was a giant Coke bottle slide. There was a long line. It was fun but it wasn't worth the wait. Yesterday I went on Grandpa's plane. I got some good pictures from and of the plane. I don't have the uploader so I can't post a picture:(, but trust me there good. We were at about 300 feet and going over 100 MPH. It was fun.

Day 32

Today I woke up at 3:30 to go to CA. When we got to CA it was only 10:00! The rental car we got is a Toyota Highlander. It was really hot on the plane. I got a new video game. I got the game Lego Indiana Jones. So far I have beaten Raiders of the lost ark and half of The Temple of Doom. Esther got a DS. she also got the game Crayola Color Adventure. Then we went to the pool in CA. There was a big slide. I went round and round. There was also a water playground. I didn't do that much. There was also just a pool. I went on the slide a lot along with the pool

Day 31

Today I had my last day of acting camp:( because we're going to CA:). I just beat Keighl (again) 17-14. Today I got a book by Mike Lowell, with a forward by Josh Beckett. I'm going to read it on the plane. It's about Mike Lowell and his story about winning the World Series last year. I really like this show on TV called Air Racer. It's like an obstacle course but, pilots fly through it. There are 13 gates the planes have to fly through and whoever has completes the course with the fastest time wins. Yesterday a British pilot won against an American pilot by 1.84 seconds.

Day 30

Today I had acting camp. We watched the movies we made. I posted the movie on my blog today. After camp,I went to Wal-Mart with Mom and Esther. For the plane ride, I got myself Naruto Volume 25:Brothers. Naruto is a graphic novel about a ninja with powers. It should take me about 2 or 3 hours to read the whole thing. If the comic wasn't read right to left(like in Japan) it would only take an hour. We went to Subway for lunch. I had a Veggie Delite. It is a sandwich with veggies and honey mustard.

Day 29

Today we stayed at home most of the day packing for California. It was really boring! But at about 4:00 we went to Old Silver beach. There big waves. We went under the waves and over the waves. My dad gave us missions. He told us to ride the waves. I went about 20 feet. It was really fun. I played basketball with Keighl yesterday. I once again beat him 30-24. It was a really good game. We were playing first one to 30 points. It was 24-23, Keighl. Then I came back and won it. I can't wait to go to California. It's going to be fun.

day 28

Today I went to the county fair. I won a medium sized husky. I named him Snowy. Esther won a rainbow dog and a blue dog. She hasn't named them yet, I don't think. Then we came home and watched the second episode of Stargate Atlantis. In it Jeniffer Keller(the doctor)got infected by a hive. A hive is were the wraith(one species of bad guys) live. My favorite character is Rhonan because he is a warrior. Rhonan mostly carries guns and sometimes swords. Then we went out for dinner. We went to The 99's(You'll always come back for more). I got a veggie burger. Then for dessert I had Smore Pudding. It was vanilla pudding for the first layer then under that was chocolate moose. Under that was crushed graham cracker mixed with cinnamon sugar. Topped with marshmallows and hot fudge. Boy, I wish I had s'more.

Day 27

Today was the last day of science school. I gave my teacher Cory the smokey quartz today which I got from the Stone Store. He liked it. My class went to Stoney Beach and found some souvenirs. I found a rock that had a lot of this soccer ball shaped mineral called garnet. I also found a rock. Cory could not tell what it was. The color of the rock is whitish and orangeish. Last night I had karate. The power went out during karate last night. Even worse it was popcorn day so they couldn't make more popcorn for my class! On the bright side, we had enough popcorn for 1/2 a cup each.

Day 26

Today I went to acting camp. Since we were done filming we played theater games. It was fun. At the end of class we had a dance off. Our group danced to "No Parking". Then I went to science school. We went to Webster Woods. There were big piles of clay and rock(murain). There some cool rocks in the pile - gneiss and quartzite. Then we went to the Stone Store. Esther got some wind chimes but instead of metal the chimes are rock. I got a bracelet made out of Mah Jong stones. It's cool. I got some smokey quartz as a thank you present for my teacher, Cory.

Day 25

Today my group taped "Boys in Blue". I think it came out really well. I'm going to get a DVD of all the movies. I will be able to post my video when I get the DVD. The movie is about 3 1/2 minutes long. Today in science school we went on OceanQuest, a boating service that takes people on educational cruises through Woods Hole passage. We looked at the murain on the first island in the Elizabeth Island Chain. A murain is all the different sized sediments the glaciers from the last ice age left behind. Surprisingly MOST(everywhere except Falmouth)of Cape Cod is murain, but Falmouth is an Outwash Plain. That means the melted ice ran down and picked up some murain and made Falmouth.

day 24

Today I went to acting camp. We practiced our movies. We could film tomorrow but my group won't be ready. We will start filming on Thursday. As I said in my last post(I think) we're doing silent movies so we're having a soundtrack in the background. We are doing one song. I forget its name. Then when we are about to catch a tourist the "Jaws" music comes on. I have that in my music library because there is a lot of french horn in it. In science school we did an experiment on glaciers. We covered big chunks of ice with sand then saw how long it took for them to melt. By the time we were done with science school they still hadn't melted. We'll just have to wait 'til tomorrow:(.

day 23

Today I had acting camp. This week we are making movies. My group's movie is "Boys in Blue" a parody of "Men in Black". Instead of aliens there are tourists. My friend Tyler and I are the "Boys in Blue". My friend Emma is the chief. Everyone else are tourists. We are doing it all around Woods Hole. We first see the tourist at the sundial. Then they scatter to tourist traps like the aquarium, Cape Cod Sweats, Candy go Nuts, and the bridge. Our finished movie should be approximately 3 minutes. I can't wait to see all the other films!

day 22

Today I went to the Purisky's. The Purisky's are my Dad's friends. He knows Jill Purisky from college. Jill and her husband John have a son named Brian that is my age. They also have a daughter named Kim that is 13, and one more daughter, Sara, that is 15. Sara is visiting Berkeley, CA right now so she wasn't there. I played mostly with Brian. We went to their beach. They live in New Seabury (a neighborhood on Cape Cod). The people who live there have a private beach. We went there. There were big waves. I strained my neck swimming in the waves.

Day 21

Today my babysitter came to our house because Mom and Dad ran the Paul E. White Road Race. It's 4.81 miles. Dad ran it in 42:30. Mom was 1 minute slower. I was surprised that Dad was faster than Mom. Mom ran track in high school and Dad didn't so she has more practice. Plus she usually beats him anyway. There was a softball game going on at the field near the end of the race. I watched some of that game. It was 7-7 when I left. There were Italian ices for the runners, but Esther and I had one, too.

day 20

There was no acting camp today:(. Instead we went to the beach:). Yesterday I got a skim board. The way you use a skim board is you throw it on the edge of the water and jump on it. I used it at the beach today. It was really hard to use. In the water I was giving Esther piggyback rides when we got stung by a red jellyfish. It really hurt, but if you put wet sand on the spot where you got stung it feels a little better. In science school we went to Beebe woods. We looked at an erratic rock. Erratic means it doesn't look right where it is. Glaciers from the last ice age brought all the big rocks to Cape Cod.

day19

Today in acting camp we did trust drills. First, we stood in a circle and one person stood in the middle. The person in the middle fell back then each person in the circle had to push them to keep them up. Then, we did a second drill where the lightest person laid down in the middle. Then, the people in the circle picked up the person in the middle and moved him/her. We paired up for the last trust drill. One person in the pair was blindfolded and the other told the blind person where to go. My partner almost led me into a telephone pole. I also went to science school. Tomorrow we are going to Beebe Woods. I was just there yesterday. My teacher said we were going to visit something and he thought we would wonder it got there. Because I was just there, I know that he's talking about a big rock in the middle of Beebe Woods.

day 18

Today we put on our performances at the Woods Hole Library. It went really well. The picture is of my play, Caps for Sale, where we were selling all the hats to the owner of the orphanage. I also went to Science School. We learned Cape Cod is just one big dirt pile. After science school we went to Esther's guitar lesson. Joe Scott(her teacher) was running late. Her lesson was supposed to start at 4:00 but they didn't start until 4:20. The we walked through Beebe woods. We walked in one big circle. It was really fun. We also climbed a rock in Beebe Woods.

day 17

Today in acting camp we practiced our skits. We had our costumes today. I wore a ripped shirt and a lot of hats stacked on top of each other. Tomorrow we are showing our plays at the Woods Hole Library. My friend Sam is coming to watch. I can't wait. I also had Science School. We went to Stoney Beach. There are three types of rock; Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic. Igneous rocks are formed by cooling magma. Sedimentary rocks are formed by sediments being squished together. Metamorphic rocks are formed by rocks being heated, squished, or a combination of both. We found out that Stoney beach is made up of mostly igneous rock.

Day 16

Today I went to acting camp. It was fun. We are dramatizing stories this week. My group is doing the story "Caps for Sale." The story is about a poor man that is selling caps. He falls asleep under a tree after not selling any of his hats. Then some monkeys steal his hats. Then the man wakes up and throws his hat on the ground. Then all the monkeys do the same. I'm the man who sells the caps. We changed the story so I have an assistant. Other than that the story is the same. We are doing the plays at the Woods Hole library on Wednesday at 11:00.

Day 15

Today we went out on the boat. I was fun. I caught the fish in the picture. We had it for dinner. It was yummy. Unfortunately half the lure we used was bitten off. We were in Buzzards Bay when I caught my fish. After we got home from from boating I went to the end of the season baseball party. It was a pool party. I had fun. It was at my coaches house. My whole team was there except one player.

day 14

Today Kay, our neighbor, had a yard sale. She let Esther and I sell some of our old toys there. I sold my old action figures. I made $9.25. Esther sold her old dolls and toys. She made $9.00. I had fun. I made some good money. I'm getting some money for writing my blog, too. I can't decide what to save up for. I'm either going to get Rock Band for Wii or Guitar Hero III:Legends of Rock for Wii. Mom and Dad cleaned out to the garage and took some things to the dump. I was in the Falmouth Youth Baseball raffle. I won Red Sox tickets. Unfortunately the game is while we're in California. My dad and I are going for a bike ride after I finish writing. I like going on bike rides with my dad. We get to hang out.

day 13 (4th of July)

Today I went to Water Wizz. I went with my mom, my dad, and Esther. For the first time I went on all the rides in one visit. I went on the tallest ride there a couple times. It's called Pirates Plunge. If you click on the link below you will see me going down Pirates Plunge. There are also not so scary rides like the Lazy River. In the Lazy River you go around and around in a circle while on a tube. It's really relaxing. My favorite ride is the Pirates Plunge. My mom and Dad didn't really like it. But I think it was fun.

day 12

Today was the last day of acting camp for the week. Mr.Switzer gave us the first line and we could do what we wanted to with it. Our first line was "I have a great idea." Me and my friends Sarah and Ruth were robbers. I said the first line. Then Sarah said "every time you have a good idea it goes wrong." My dad just got back from camping and he actually had a beard. This morning he shaved it so he has a goatee. I just beat my dad in The Bigs (a baseball game for the Wii) 11-10. The score in the fourth inning was 10-7, my dad. Then he changed his pitcher and I just crushed the ball and won.

day 11

Today in acting camp we did commercials. My group actually did an infomercial. It was about recycling. Holly and I were spokespeople, James and Lucy were celebrities, and Gus was a random person on the street. Riley and Emma were people who sang "Recycle!" every time any one said recycle. After they did that a couple times I said to Holly, "Can we shut them up?" Lucy's first line was, "Cut! Is my hair OK?" Then Holly said, "Sorry. We can't cut. We're live!" It was really fun. After that, I went to science school. We looked at the rock buildings in Woods Hole.

day 10

Today in acting camp we worked on "who" we are. In the first skit I was with Elijah, Bob, and Bennett. Bennett and I were fathers. Elijah and Bob were our toddlers. Elijah was really misbehaved, while Bob was really good. I had to drag Elijah out of there, then Bennett said, "Come on Bob! Let's go get some ice cream." The second skit we did was called "The Teacher's Pet". It would take way too long to go into detail but I'll tell you a little. The problem was Elijah(the Teacher) wouldn't call on anyone but Ann. He sent everyone else to the principal. Then Magical Janitor John(Me) turned Elijah into a frog. The last line was "That's some teacher's pet." The rest of the people had to guess what the play was called. They guessed it on the first try.

Day 9

Today I went to acting camp. The teacher is Brian Switzer. He teaches at Morse Pond School, where I am going this fall. We worked on "where" today. We did little skits with 2, 3 , and 6 people per team. The first skit I did was with one of the counselors named James. We were tourists in a car. Then we did where we came from. I was with Tyler and Jordan. I was a magician. Tyler and Jordan pretended they were fans of my magic show. The last skit I did was with Tyler, Jordan, Thomas, Jackson, and Thomas (Yes there were 2 Thomases :). We were at an office. Everybody except one Thomas were office workers. Thomas was the boss. Mr. Switzer really liked our skit. He said it was simple but good. Then I went to science school. I'm taking the Geology course. My teacher is Cory. He is a 6th grade science teacher. We focused on how to tell the difference between rocks and minerals. Rocks are more than one color and minerals are one color.

Day 8

Today I saw Wall-E. I went with my mom and my sister. It was a good movie. It gave a really good message. The message was "Don't let machines run your life". All the people were caught up in talking on their cell phones. They didn't even look outside! All the machines were running their lives. My dad got me this software that lets you write songs. I've been doing that a lot. Then you can burn your songs onto discs. If you would like one please write a comment telling me:). I have all sorts of genres, from Jazz to Metal and R&B to Hip Hop. So far I've done every genre except R&B and Hip Hop. My dad is hiking right now and guess what? It's pouring. It's really a bad day to go hiking. Sorry Dad! Before it started I played basketball with Keighl. I just beat Keighl again 16-10.

day 7

I had my friend Nicky over today. We played some fun things like jacks. We also played video games. We had fun playing with Keighl. Keighl lives down the street from me and we like to play basketball together. Nicky and I won! The score was 10-2! Keighl wasn't doing so well today:). I went to the Falmouth Commodores game (Cape Cod Baseball League - amateur) last night. When we left the score was 7 Cotuit to 1 Falmouth. Cotuit ended up winning 9-2. No wonder they're the best team on Cape Cod! My Dad is leaving for New Hampshire early tomorrow morning. He is going backpacking for four days. I'll miss him. He's going with John Richardson. They're hiking through the White Mountains. This week we're NOT going to have to go to karate because it's the week of the 4th of July. Next week we start the summer fun schedule at karate.

Day 6

I'm in Marion at my dads work. I just finished playing Guitar Hero: On Tour for an hour. We took the boat over. It wasn't real bumpy. It will be on the way home. We went fishing off of seal rocks. We caught a lobster trap. My dad lost 2 of his favorite lures in 2 weeks. There were alot of birds but no fish. I had to get up at 6:45 this morning and have a small yogurt for breakfast then we left. I'm righting on a plasma screen computer. The screen used to be a HDTV. Know its a computer screen. Big step up huh? Me and my dad have been using this tracker and we brought it on the boat. If you want to see where we are click the address below. I gives a new position every 10 minutes. Cool right? But this company can compete with my dads. His company bought it so they could see how it works. My dads taking it backpacking next week.

day 5

Today I went to the beach. I went with Mom, Esther,and Jarrett. The water was really nice. I saw my old basketball coach's son. Jarrett, my old basketball coach's son, and I played ball tag, Marco Polo, and Pickle. I also saw my friend Jeremy there. Then Mom, Esther, Jarrett, and I went to Tedeschi's (a general store). Jarrett and I got baseball cards, Esther got Hannah Montana cards, and Mom got 1% Garelick farms milk:). Ichiro, Jeremy Bonderman, and Clay Buckholz are the rare cards I got. I also got some people I've never heard of, like Jason Tyner, Ian Snell, and Rafael Betancourt. If you've ever heard of them please send me a comment telling me. Jarrett and I played Need for Speed. Neither of us ever finished because our cars exploded before we could finish.

day 4

Yesterday we didn't really have anything to do. My baseball team lost the championship game. 1-0 was the score. We played under the lights. It was really cool. Today my friend Jarrett is coming over. My sister had a guitar lesson yesterday. She is taught by Joe Scott at the Cape Cod Conservatory. He uses the Suzuki method so Mom has to sit in on the lesson, too. Yesterday we (tried) to go on a picnic to the Cautamet playground. It was full of cicadas. They were making a loud, buzzing, siren-like sound. So we a went to Nye park instead. I had pizza with pepper, pineapple, and olives. Esther had 2 grilled hot dogs (the anti-vegetarian meal). Mom stole some of my pizza. Then we played on the playground (the one with no cicadas:). I went on the see-saw with Mom and Esther. I made my mom's side hit the ground hard while she was on it.

day 3

Today we went to Chatham. We went on a seal cruise. We saw 300-400 seals. I learned a lot. Did you know grey seals are bigger than harbor seals? Last night we went to the Flying Bridge. We were eating outside when it started to rain so we had to move everything inside. I had a salad and pasta. My mom had a salad with lobster salad and a pina colada for her birthday. Dad had a chef salad and Esther had a hamburger. Then we fed french fries to some blue fish. They would jump up and grab the french fries and come back down. Sometimes ducks would steal the french fries from the blue fish. The baseball championship was postponed till tomorrow because of a thunderstorm. I went to Cooper's beach today. We were there for 10 minutes then left because of thunder. Then we went to his house and played.

day 2

My friend Cooper Peterson just left. We had fun. He came at 10:00 and left at 1:3o! Long time, huh? We built with Legos then we walked up to the school. We played Nintendo DS then we played basketball. Yesterday my dad and I went up to Hyannis and my dad got some camping gear. I got Guitar Hero: On tour for the DS. It's a lot of fun. There are some really cool songs. All the Small Things by Blink 182 and Breed by Nirvana are some of the songs on Guitar Hero. It's my Mom's birthday today. We are having german chocolate cake with coconut pecan frosting (and another vanilla frosted one for my dad). Tomorrow we are going on a seal cruise in Chatham. I want to see some seals. That's going to be fun. I'm going to ask you one question. Where are my loyal readers :(?

day 1 (Summer after 4th grade)

Next year I'm going to Morse Pond. It is the middle school in Falmouth. I have Mrs.Buscher. She gives allot of homework. At least 5 pages. The reason she gives so much homework is we do so many fun things in the class room we have to do some work. Yesterday I didn't have to do anything or go any where,for once. I played allot of gameboy and Wii. I had batting practice for my baseball game today. I'm on Pizza1 Subs2. We are 10-1. Which means we won 10 and lost 1. We are now in the playoffs if we win tommorow against Amvets we go to the championships. My friend Keighl. is home from college. We play Basketball and practice Baseball. I won't be able to ride my bike to school until the bike path is finished. Then I would ride to the hospital light and ride straight till I got to school.
