Winter Break wasting away

The break has been going by so fast! I wish it was summer already, I really don't want to go back to school. Anyway yesterday I went to my friend's house and stayed for about 3 hours. Then came home and used the computer and watched NCIS. Also I listened to my dog growl and growl and she wouldn't shut up. Lately I have been playing a video game I have not played in a LONG time, that game is Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. (An awesome game!) Today I went to go see Mission Impossible 4 Ghost Protocol. It was a great movie, I give it 10 stars! Below this post is the movie poster. Also another thing I did the other day was went bowling, every since then I really want to go again. I got an 88 then a 54 and well... I can't remember the rest, but at one point I got a double strike. Make sure to comment and check back.

The wait is finally over!

Finally after so long my custom Lego came in. Like I said I will post a pic of it.  The pic is right next to this post. Also yesterday I got a brand new, white, 4th generation Ipod. Another few things I got were 3 Lego sets, 75 bucks, and a six pack of Star Wars puzzles. The 3 Lego sets were: The Emperor's Shuttle, Luke's Landspeeder, and the Bounty Hunter Assualt Gunship (Below are some pics.) My family had these for me for a while but wanted to surprise me and things kept coming up so they finally got together to give them to me.  Anyway me and my mom also ordered a bunch of patches from Amazon so mom can add them to a quilt she wants to make for me.  Well, for the past few days, the mail lady has been cramming packages into our mailbox. Today
we got a Sonic patch, Mario mushroom patches, Pikachu, and Angry Birds.  Also, I finally used my Gamestop points to order a calender and my Mario keychain, which I got today too!  I love getting stuff in the mail!
Check back soon and comment!

More editing to this AWESOME blog

As you can see I have made many changes to this blog some of which include the background, my profile pic, and my header. I think they really show things about me (I love Sonic) Well so far in Winter break I have just stayed around the house and done chores. My sickness has been getting worse, for the past 2 days I have not been able to breathe through my nose. I pretty much feel like I have been hit constantly with a Mac truck. :( My package still hasn't come in yet I don't know why it's taking so long. Last night I went to redeem my Gamestop points online (I had 16,730, I was considered a Pro member.) I ordered 2 things--a mario keychain and a 2012 poster. I hate being sick. Right now like in my last post I'm barely awake, this needs to end soon! Anyway as of this post I have 342 viewers, also to do with stats this blog isn't limited to America I have viewers from: Russia, Germany, and the Ukraine, maybe we can get some more from other countries for instance my mom has some viewers from: the Phillipines, South Africa, Guam, and more. Comment and check back soon!

The end result of my essay

Okay so when I talked to my teacher again she assigned me a project on a man who wrote a major document.  I picked Thomas Jefferson.  Here is my finished project.

************************************************************************************
Many wonder about the men who created documents that changed America. Most times this is a subject shrouded in false facts and mystery I mean it’s understandable it was a long time ago. In this document I have included my report of the events in the creation of the Declaration of Independence. Yes every word of this is true, just the cold hard tough to take medicine (ok maybe not tough, but you get the idea.) After reading this you will be able to quote facts and dates from the time period in which it was made in. I am Henry King one of Jefferson’s closest associates. I will represent him in a neutral respectful manor. So enjoy this informational and easy to understand manuscript.    

This is the story of the Declaration of Independence and its main writer Thomas Jefferson. The period of the writing of the Declaration of Independence has a right to be called a time of America’s growth and a time in which America was under direct and oppressive rule of Great Britain. One of the writers of the five writer committee was a man who took the lead in this endeavor. This man’s name is Thomas Jefferson; some of you may know him as TJ. This document will explain the writing of the Declaration of Independence and influences that caused Thomas Jefferson to write the Declaration of Independence.

An armed conflict arised between America and Great Britain starting in April 1775. You could just say that going up against the British army wasn’t exactly taking candy from a baby dressed in a fluffy outfit. Even though you might think this as the ordinary colonist’s attitude “Break off from Britain, those obnoxious morons!” But really most were anxious about breaking off due to the fact that they weren’t use to the idea of complete independence. Those who were completely for the idea of independence were considered radical. But that all changed a year later when Britain tried to crush them all then everybody was on deck. On June 7, 1776 the Virginia delegate Richard Lee introduced a motion calling for the colonies’ freedom before the Continental Congress, it was a heated debate. They called for a recess for many weeks, but before separating the delegates appointed a 5 man committee which included John Adams, Roger Sherman, Benjamin Franklin, Robert Livingston, and the man who this report is all about Thomas Jefferson. This committee was created to right a declaration against Britain which later came to be called the Declaration of Independence.

Jefferson prior to being selected to draft the Declaration of Independence had established a reputation of being a great speaker for a patriotic cause. The Declaration was divided into 5 sections which includes: introduction, the preamble, the body (cut into 2 sections), and the conclusion. The introduction clearly stated that independence was “necessary” to the colonies.  The body efficiently describes grievances against Britain. The Continental Congress re-adjourned on July 1st and the next day 12 of 13 colonies adopted Lee’s resolution for independence. Consideration of revisions of the draft continued on July 3rd and early morning of July 4th. Congress adopted the draft on July 4th. Although most accept that the document was not signed until August 2nd. This document became a land mark in the history of the United States and democracy. In addition to changing America it also affected France during the French Revolution. It is considered to be one of the three documents that molded the future government. In conclusion Jefferson was a man who didn’t want much just, credit for his greatest accomplishments which includes the Declaration of Independence. I have given that credit to him in this document.

Weekly poem #2

Leaves    

Ah, at last fall is here

This very well might be my favorite time of year

The leaves falling to Earth with all their colors

They soar in the wind like eagles

I do wish I could experience this all year round

But alas, winter must yet come

Most humans just take fall for granted

But yet they do not know what they are missing

 

 

Winter Break ever closer

This week has been going slower and slower and slower and well you get the point. Well yesterday I got an e-mail from the Lego company saying that they just shipped out my order so that means today was the eighth day and I waited for NOTHING! Hopefully it will come some time this week. Anyway I have 269 viewers and we need to get that higher. Another thing that I have been into lately...it is 2 words, Duct Tape. I have covered my school agenda with it, my folders with it, my friend's binder with it, and a lot more. Duct Tape is able to be virtually used for anything. I mean look at how much fun babies can have with it! Also here are a few pics of a Ferret I held at the local pet store.  He was shaking like a vibrating back massager. Another thing is last night I went to the local skating rink and dominated at Laser Tag (I got 1st place.) At school yesterday I got a positive referral for reading 8 of the Virginia Readers Choice books. Later tonight I will upload a review of Star Wars Republic Commando. Check back soon!

1 week untill Winter Break!

This week of school was THE SLOWEST EVER! Every class dragged on and on. But now that it's the weekend, it goes by so fast! The other day I ordered a Lego my friend Mark designed on Lego's Design by me. He made me a Rancor from Star Wars the Force Unleashed, I got to design the box and everything! I ordered it six days ago (It said it would take 3-8 days for delivery IT IS DAY 6 this is annoying they always make it 8 days. Also today is Saturday it's a day where you want to go do something, but today I have no idea of what to do. I had no idea of what to do so my mom said "How about you post on your blog while I lay down, so that't where I am now. My mom just called my uncle and now he is trying to think of something. She got off the phone with him nothing. Below this post is a pic of a Rancor (I will upload a pic of the Lego model once I get it.)

Teachers don't understand!

Okay so today was a really bad day. It was a rainy dreary day, that, along with what happened today, really sucked. Before class I asked my teacher to go my locker she said yes. Right before I went one of my other teachers came up to me and the conversation goes as the following...

Teacher: "Where's your essay?"

Me: "What's essay?"

Teacher: "It was an essay due yesterday."

Me:  "When was it assigned?"

Teacher: "While you were at the beach."

Me: "It wasn't in the work you said I missed, and you never mentioned it to me."

Teacher:  "You should have asked me."

Me: "You said that what you gave me was all the work."

Teacher: "Stop playing this game. You decieved me!

Me: "Okay then..."

As you can see today was really bad!

Weekly poetry #1

As of this post I have started to post a poem I have wrote weekly, here's number one...


Life

Is life important some may ask

Why am I here

Life has so many twists and turns

You never really know what’s going to happen

Life is like a cross word you have to solve it

You can’t just expect it to be done

So don’t take life for granted

Enjoy it to the full while you still can!

I got grounded again

I had once again, been grounded. Every time I get grounded I lose my computer use, which includes Facebook, my blog and all other internet use. That's one reason why I try to stay away from getting in trouble.Today I got my computer use back. But anyway I went to dinner last night at a you could say popular restraunt in my area, I got a pick 2 seafood platter, I got fried shrimp and a crab cake. Today I went to Toys R Us and got a new lego set #3367 the Space Shuttle below are some built pics, including some of it's features.

What else could go wrong

Many things could go wrong, like today, School was rough enough and then the fact that my binder fell while I was walking down the stairs and, all my papers dropped out. I barely made it to class without being late, then in gym, we played a game where we ran around the gym dribbling Basketballs while our partners shot baskets but of course when it was my turn my team was screaming at me FASTER FASTER FASTER! It's never enough for them, then when it was my turn to shoot I made 8 shots in 30 seconds THEY STILL WEREN'T HAPPY! You just can't please them. After gym it wasn't as bad but, in third period we were assigned new seats and the predictable hapened, I was sat with all girls. Then in my mom's car I got one of my favorite sodas a Faygo Creme Soda. As soon as I oppened it shhhhhhhh it shot out all over me :( As of this post I have 189 viewers. Check back soon!
