PCA, VBS

This year I will be going to Providence Christian Academy. We get to learn latin and HAVE to wear uniforms. Some my friends from church go there. At the end of VBS we had to do a skit. Our class's was reacting the Battle of Jericho. When we ran in Jericho and killed the soldiers, I jumped off the stage and stabbed a guy with my staff.

Pool, air soft, etc.

I've been spending a lot more time outside than I usually do. One reason is that I got an air soft gun. They shoot out pellets that can give you a little welt. I shoot root beer cans. Another reason is that dad got a little pool that we can sit in, splash around in, and cool off.

For the Fourth of July we invited some friends over, played with fire crackers, and saw unbelievable fireworks. We just walked to our local rec. center. Because of this, we got to stay up until 10 o' clock.

Edgar & George

The other day I was outside and I remembered how we got our turtles. We were coming back from school and mom says something like: " We got something really cool today." Mom told us it was in the bathroom. I looked in the bathtub and there was a turtle. Mom told us she found him on Edgar Road, so we decided to name him Edgar.

Another day, that same month, we were at the bird sanctuary when Dad saw a round thing on the side of the road and claimed it was a turtle. We got out of the car and picked it up. It was a turtle. While we were driving home, James suggested that we should name him George after the turtle Lonesome George.

Well, the turtles have escaped so we took down their chicken wire fence and threw out watermelon rinds just incase their still in our yard.

Ugggggggggggggggggggh. More Media.

Why does everyone in my family do three hours of media each day? Because they say there's "nothing" else to do. Charlie will play on the computer for 2 hours and then go and play Xbox for another hour. James watches a movie and plays the computer as well as game boy, and mom and dad sit in the living room and watch their pointless shows. If I ever have a chance to use the TV, I usually watch shows with Jeff Corwin. Jeff Corwin is a naturalist that comes on Animal Planet and Travel channel. His newest show is called : INTO AMERICA'S WEST with JEFF CORWIN.

Lately, I've been writing a story. I write a chapter a day after I read. I'll talk about it when I'm finished with my book.

Zoo

Yesterday, at the zoo I went into the flight cage and saw: a Canvasback duck, which has a red head and a white back, a Bobwhite fly down from a tree and land in the bushes, a Blue Jay that wasn't supposed to be there, and a Double Crested Cormorant with a blue eyes and half a wing.

I will be going to Alabama and Mississippi on June 14th. Those of you who live in Alabama will know that we are there for 3 days. I will also get to see an old friend from Gulf Drive.

Conan the Barbarian and Bird sanctuary

Conan is actually not much of a barbarian. If you grip an almond with two fingers and hand it to him, he's going to take it so gently that you don't feel him grabbing on it. He acts like a sock police dog. My mom just took off her socks, and he has them 5 seconds later. You can tell he's happy to see you when you come home from school or church because he'll jump in your arms and actually HUG you. When he curls up you can't tell that sometimes he can hop around the room non stop for 10 minutes.

I went to the bird sanctuary with my mom today, they got a Kookaburra which I made talk. We noticed that the Sandhill Cranes have an egg. We were looking at the common Raven when a bluebird flew over our heads and landed on the top of a vulture cage. It was amazing.

More stuff. (BORING)

Lately, I've been reading the series Percy Jackson and the Olympians. This series is about a boy ( Perseus Jackson ) that goes to a summer camp in the 21st century where Greek Myths are there. He goes on adventures with his friends, fights monsters, and goes on quests. I've read the first, second, and third book and there are four books.
There is a Gray Crested Flycatcher in our backyard. It has a bright yellow belly and a long crest.

We only have three days of school left before the summer. Next year, I will go to Providence Christian Academy. Happy summer.


(Applause.)


Thank you, thank you.
