Adventures In Odyssey!
Sorry about the delay for 2 mondays. I forgot to do it on that day, PLUS I got grounded for 4 days.
Adventures In Odyssey. Have you ever heard of it? It's a series of christian radio dramas that have gone for 25 years! CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?!?!?!?!?! There's this old guy called John Avery Whittaker (everyone usually calls him Mr. Whittaker or Whit) who has appeared in about 95% of the series. (he used to be in 99.9% of the series, but when his first actor, Hal Smith died, Whit went to live at the Middle East for 2 years, until the crew found Paul Herlinger, the second Whit actor (his third and current actor is Andre Stojka (STOY-ka))) and he gives really good advice.
Here's a history:
Adventures In Odyssey started when it's first cassete album and first 13 episodes were a test series called "Family Portraits."
Anyway, after it got so popular, and it got it's own time slot, it chnged the name to "Odyssey USA." where the "truely first" album was made.
Shortly after, they changed the name to Adventures in Odyssey, where another "first" album was released.
Right after that, the team got some negative letters fom parents who disliked a silly police officer called Officer David Harley (due to his lack of authority). after that, the crew scanned the entire series for episodes with Harley so they could eliminate him from albums. Unexpectedly, he still appears in a few episodes that are in albums. also fortunatley, his first episode, "Lights Out At Whit's End" is being offered as a free download on Community Audio.
In 2008, to celebrate the 20th anniversery and the 50th album, they made an album called The Best Small Town. It brought back old characters such as Lucy Cunningham-Shultz and Jack Davis.

Here's where Whit was introduced for the first time in the series.

This week's journal
If you were expecting me to write this early in the morning, you'd be reading this the day after.
Wensday, May 30th, 2012: Volleyball
I got out of bed sometime near 10:00. Mom was taking a shower. I asked Isaiah: "Can you please turn on the downstairs computer? I wanna watch the Clone Wars episode that is on there!" Andrew said, "Did mom let you?" Later, I was looking for the Clone Wars movie disc. Finally I found it. Andrew was watching a silly Rhett & Link video. (see picture below)
He showed Isaiah it. Soon, I looked at the eHarmony Video Bio Remix by Schomyoho (see last post), and Andrew left. I did my Calculadders. Then I went to making a movie. Then I went to sorting things from a big box. Mom was watching The Biggest Loser (post coming soon!) on Netflix.I ate dinner, which was taco meat. Then I went to Volleyball at the church. It was fun! but I broke my glasses during the game. Then I went in the shower, then I played DS in bed, then went to sleep.
Thursday, May 31th, 2012: Happy Birthday
I got out of bed and realized... IT WAS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!! DUDE!!!!!!! Then I played Minecraft. I ate breakfast, which was pancakes (since it was my birthday). I got on the computer to look at LEGO Star Wars Commercials (post coming soon!), and editied my blog (a new label, and new links). I left to get 4 things: To get my glasses fixed, clothes, ice cream cake, and lunch at Mcdonalds. It was AWESOME!!!!!! Mom was leaving, and I watched parts of The Clone Wars. When she got back, my LEGOs were messed up! I put them back together, and here's a prayer that Jesus Christ answered: I FOUND MY LEGO MINIFIGURE OF R2-D2 THAT I LOST SINCE LAST WEEK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was a miracle! Mom was watching The Biggest Loser. I played Project 64, emulating Super Smash Bros, having fun with a glitch (see picture below)
. Soon after, I looked at birthday memories. Then I went to my birthday trip with Grammy. I had dinner at Grand Buffet, and I bought 4 LEGO sets at Wal Mart! It was AWESOME!!!!!!! I built one of my sets. Charles and his fiancee came over (he moved out recently), and we ate the ice cream cake, I showed him a couple of videos, and we built the biggest set. After they left, I continued 'till it was finished, put it on display, took a shower, built the other LEGO sets, then went to sleep.
Friday, June 1st, 2012: Going Fishing
I woke up. I decided to make a movie with my LEGO sets, but I had to water the plants. I did some of the movie, and ate hot dogs for lunch. I did a LOT of Time4Learning, and then I did most of the movie. We were going fishing, and I caught an instant sunfish! we went shopping, and when I got home, I filmed the last part. I ate tater tots for dinner, and we made some music. I took a shower, watched something that Andrew and Isaiah were watching. Then I went to sleep.
I didn't do the weekend because I was too busy editing the LEGO movie.
