Journal Entry 10/12/13: The Birthday Party

Today, I tried waking up at 6:00, but my glasses were on my DS, so I woke up at 8:23. I got up and listened to today’s Adventure in Odyssey (Life Expectancy, Part 3) and Sophie listened to it afterwards. I came up and ate a ramen soup.

 I turned on the computer with Mom’s permission to start this journal. Mom said it was Isaiah’s fiancée’s sister’s birthday party today! And Andrew’s birthday is tomorrow! It was cloudy, leaves were falling... and I wasn’t really sure about going to the birthday party. It’s a girl’s party... but I don’t want to turn down an invitation. I might have fun, I was at another girl’s party and I had fun...So I am gonna go. I showed Mom my journal so far, and we talked about humor. Then, I used the Dell computer and played Mario 64 on an emulator.

Then I wrote a blog post (My School Journal!) and afterwards I ate hot dogs and watched an Adventures in Odyssey video (Star Quest) on TV.

 Then, I used the Dell computer for a while. I unloaded the dishwasher 

and then took a shower. Then I used the computer for another while. Dad made some juice. We were going to leave in 20 minutes. Sophie cleaned up, I changed my clothes, and we left. We had fun, I ate a lot of Goldfish crakers, and we ate some cake and ice cream, and there was lots of other things.

 We came home, I ate some sloppy joes for dinner, and used the computer for a while. Then, we all watched The Princess Bride, then I went to bed.     

My School Journal!

Right now, I am working on a school project. I started on the first day of school, and I am planning to finish it after my evaluations. It's kinda like a project of what I did during the summer, just backwards. I will post one of them that I am working on today, tomorrow. (even though it's a Sunday) And once in a while, I might do this. Thanks for reading!

Journal Entry 02/27/13

I woke up at 6:44. I came out to see Sophie watching Shaun the Sheep on Netflix. When she was done, she started watching Arthur. Mom woke up, and Sophie finished the episode. She wanted to watch another one, but Mom said that was enough TV right now. So I decided to use the computer for journaling. Mom told me that she will go clean Grammie's house today. (We live in a duplex) She said that Grammie will pay her tonight, and tomorrow she will go shopping. (We are running out of food) I got paid last night for shoveling the big snowstorm. Sophie and I were saving up for a LEGO set, and Mom recently was loaned $8.40 (plus Dad with $2.50, making it $11.90) from our savings. I thought she could pay me back tomorrow, and we could go to WalMart for shopping, (to get the LEGO set) but we were getting our check on Friday, 2 days from now, and we are going to WalMart on that day. Mom made breakfast, which was pancakes, and I posted last post, which gave me an idea! Make another Gaming Saturday episode! Mom said she was not going to clean Grammie's house, because Grampa was home. Speaking of which, it was snowing! and I could shovel, so I went down and asked Grampa. He said it was not much now, but later, we will have 6'' of snow! Mom saw this part, and she told me that I had to go to the library before there is 6'' of snow, because there is a book I have on hold. It was raining, and we went. I got my book, as well as some Arthur books. When we got home, I knocked the Nintendo 64 USB Controller down, so I tested it to work. I unloaded the dishwasher. Then I read part of one of the books. Then I checked me and Sophie's money, and we had $2.35, and Mom will pay back $11.90 when she gets her check. I calculated this and I got $14.25, more than enough to buy the LEGO set, so I calculated our money minus $12.99, the price of the LEGO set, and I got $1.26, so Sophie could buy her own piece of candy when we (Sophie and I) can buy the set. Then I got back on the computer to journal this, and Mom read the last chapter of The 21 Balloons. I loaned the money for Andrew to go shopping. He went, and I did Khan Academy. I finished, and after a while, Andrew came home. We had dinner, which was spaghetti, and then I took a long shower. I listened to Teddy's Button audiobook with Mom and Sophie, finished this journal, listened to the Arthur Audiobook in bed, then went to sleep.

Journal Entry 02/24/13

I was going to write a journal a couple days ago, but I kept PUTTING IT OFF!!!!! This time I wrote a note and I am doing the journal now.       

The alarm woke me up at 6:00. I got out of my room to see Dad watching Derren Brown: Inside Your Mind, a British show about mind tricks (sorta like "These are not the droids you are looking for." from Star Wars: A New Hope.) One part of it was where this guy was put in a fake photo booth, where he was hypnotized by flashing lights and fell asleep. The people brought the guy to Morocco, where he woke up, very confused. (Dad skipped the scary parts) Mom woke up, and I told her all about it. I asked her to use the computer, but she said no. I decided to make a list of things to do, and here it is:

• 8:00 AM: Play Game with Mom
• 11:30 AM: Cook Lunch
• 11:45 AM: Play Paper Mario on Project 64
• 3:00 PM: Practice Everyone Makes Mistakes with Andrew
• 6:00 PM: Watch Arthur on Netflix

I found my note, saying that I had to do this journal, so I asked Mom to use the computer to do journaling, and she said yes, so I wrote. While I wrote, Dad gave me a quiz on the 5 (Dad was corrected; actually 7) continents in the world. That's when I learned that there's no land on the North Pole! I was shocked, and I said, "So Santa Claus' workshop is on a cruise ship of ice!" (LOL!) I wrote up to Here{} After that, I danced to some very cool video game music. Mom told me there was some saltine crackers, so I ate some. Then Mom and Isaiah watched the show that we watched this morning. I started lunch, which was French Fries, and watched a couple of parts with them. At the near end, Hulu said "Which ad experience would you like?" LOL! At 11:38, I played a THX logo, because there is an old movie called THX 1138! LOL again! We had lunch, and I played Paper Mario on my N64 emulator. Mom told us to get ready for Charles coming here. I had my own idea. I could make my own nostalgic playlist on Grooveshark! It didn't work (as it kept having issues with the computer) but we had fun! We played Fuzion Frenzy, we ate ice cream, we watched Red Dwarf and Comedy Bang! Bang! on Netflix, we played the Noun Game, and then Charles and the family started watching The Matrix. It was an adultish movie, so me and Sophie watched Arthur. It was time for bed, no shower, and I went to sleep.

During the night, I woke up to see my door open at 4:00 in the morning. I went back to sleep.

Journal Entry 2/4/13

Today I will try not to include Youtube videos on this post. Instead, I'm putting links.


I woke up by my 6:00 alarm. I came out to see Dad playing Minecraft and watching Red Dwarf (currently paused) on Netflix for Wii. It was pretty funny, and I was cold, so I got Dad's sweater, and I played Minecraft too. We ate some pretzels. After I got bored with Minecraft, I started going on another blog, and watched his fake Messy Mondays, and then one of his Lego animations. Mom woke up, and she didn't want the computer on with its noise (My Mom's computer's fan makes this noise that doesn't sound very good), so I watched Arthur on Netflix for Android Tablet on our Nabi. (see the Christmas post) Sophie woke up, and then I did my Morning Routine. I started this journal, and Sophie started putting the word "you" on my first sentences. ("I woke up you" "I woke up by my you" "I woke up by my 6:00 alarmyou" " ...Dad playing Minecraft you" (LOL)) I thought this was very funny, and so did Sophie. Andrew went on the computer for "one second," and then Sophie, Mom, and I had our prayer time. Andrew got off, and I wrote some more while Sophie was doing her AWANA verses. Then Mom read aloud The School Story with us, while me and Sophie drew pictures. (see pictures below (NOTE: they are scanned by me))

My Picture (Both sides)

 

 

 Sophie's Picture (she stenciled it)

I did Khan Academy for math, then I did some normal math. It took me about an hour! Then we had some hot chocolate. It was yummy. I continued watching Arthur. I stopped, but Sophie continued. After I ate chips (without asking) I went to Quizlet.com and played Space Race, a typing fast/word roots educational online game, to get ready for the educational game, Rummy Roots. We played, and I won! I scanned the pictures that me and Sophie drew, and then Sophie played the "Spelling Game" online, while I did grammer. She finished, and after Mom got off the phone during grammer, she told Sophie that her friend was coming over every Monday for a 1/2 'n' Hr. (because her Dad was coming for bass guitar lessons from Andrew), and Sophie was glad to hear that. I finished grammer, and I read a little on Arthur Wiki. Sophie was going to watch Arthur on Netflix for Android Tablet on our Nabi, until the internet on it stopped. She guessed that it must be caused by 2 computers running the internet. She told me to X one of the Internet Explorer programs on the Kitchen Computer, so I typed this part (with Sophie constantly telling me to type faster) and shut it off. We ate dinner, which was pasta, soon after that. I read some more Arthur Wiki, and I was bored, so I asked Mom if we could play a game. Mom said "Yes" and we decided to play Boggle, so we did. Sophie's friend came over during the game of Boggle. After Boggle, me, Sophie and her friend played Chrades. The game stopped when her Dad told her it was time to go. I was carried away reading a post on Arthur Wiki. Later, I got bored, and then surfed the web. Then I finished this post, took a shower, and then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Final Chapter: Christmas!

Although this post is marked a journal, this is not a journal at all. this is a post with lots of pictures.


Welcome! It was an awesome Christmas! It was Jesus Christ's 2012 human birthday! I got a cool Lego set, a Snow-Brick Maker, a Nabi (Sophie is holding it) (for me, Sophie and Isaiah) which is really a kid-proof Android Tablet with apps already in there, a 1 Player 20 Questions thingy, and an MP3 Player, which I gave to Sophie because I already got it 2 days ago.

Sophie got 3 Webkinz pets.

 and an Indian robe

 We made a cake

We had fun playing The Office DVD Game and the "noun game" that night. I hoped you liked that post.

 

 

 

 

 

Merry Christmas!

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 11: Christmas Eve

This is the third time I wrote my journal after my dinner. I remember a little bit about this day. Have you ever read the short lasting 25 Days of Christmas series I wrote? I stopped at chapter 5 because of tiring issues. I hope this series lasts 'till late Christmas night, when I'll publish next post.




I woke up. Mom's computer would not work, so I could not journal the whole day. Mom left for the dollar store (to get some top secret stocking stuffings). I almost went with her because I didn't know that, and I wanted to get an eat-in-the-car size potato chip bag with my money, but Mom told me to stay because she was getting those stuffings. Well at least I had time to build my other Erector set I got for early Christmas. A while after Mom came home, our friend came. We had fun with her. That night, we watched a movie with our friend, and when it started having swears/curses, I went to my room, and (Mom's computer started working) watched Cars 2 on Mom's computer. After that I did this whole journal. as always, I took a shower, and then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 10: Early Christmas with Granmmie and Grandpa!

I slept in 'till 11:00. Somehow, the DS alarm didn't go off at 6:00. I came out, and no one was here, except Mom. We weren't going to church, as she told me, but the others did. I was bored.  Mom was on Facebook looking at funny, cute and cool pictures. I decided to build my Erector set I got yesterday. (see last post) Everybody was coming home. After I finished, I decided to play a mini-game (Sonic Chaos for Game Gear) on Sonic Adventure DX on the Wii. I stopped, and then (I can't remember) much later, I played some Super Smash Bros Melee, and then I wrote some of this journal. We went down to my Grandparents, (we usually call them Grammie and Grandpa) (see pictures below)

 

 

 We had Chinese food dinner with cousins of mine

 

 

 

 

 

And we had lots and LOOOOOTS of fun and I got what I wanted: AN MP3 PLAYER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(I almost put a video where I was screaming for joy for it on this blog, but it wouldn't finish uploading) It was a wonderful night,and when the party was over, we were looking for a movie to watch on the Xbox. We found Arthur Christmas, and it was a good movie. We watched some Youtube videos on the Xbox overnight. We watched for a LOOOONG time. I did my bedtime stuff, then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 9: Early Christmas with Charles and Jenna

I woke up by my DS alarm at 6:00. I came out to see Dad and Sophie watching a movie on Netflix for Wii. I watched it, but when it was getting boring, we switched movies to a different one. After the internet stopped working on Netflix, I decided to watch Youtube for Wii. I watched some Freddiew videos. After that, I watched a cool Sonic the Hedgehog video. (that video is at sonicawesome.blogspot.com) Mom told me to stop, and later, Charles and his wife, Jenna (my brother and sister-in-law) came over! They brought pancake mix. I had some eggnog, we played some games, and open presents of course. (see pictures below) (Sophie is on the way left, Andrew is next to her, I am the one standing up with the cool toy, and Charles is on the right sitting down. In other words: From left: Sophie, Andew, me, and Charles)

What I am holding up is...

We had so much fun with Doodle Tales, and the "noun game" and we had so much fun. So after that, we watched a movie. Since it was an adulty movie called The Source Codes, Mom told me that me and Sophie should watch a movie in Sophie's room on Mom's computer, and we decided to take turns. It's a brother/sister annoyment when Sophie insists that she should pick first. We went on Netflix and she asked me, "What do you wanna watch?" I could not pick immediately, and she asked, "If you were picking, what would you pick?" It was hard to choose right away. I got on the computer and when I scrolled down to New Releases, I found You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown. I wanted to see that movie for a year. (not really. I had been really into Charlie Brown once, and I haven't seen a clip of the movie I wanted to watch in a year.) The only two problems were, that Mom told me to watch a half-an-hour movie each pick, and at times, the internet would get real slow. I decided to watch the DVD that we got from the library, (and mentioned earlier in the series) but Sophie wanted to watch The Garfield Show, something I totally didn't want to watch. She ended up watching it, and when she was done the half-hour episode, I put in Cars 2. She went out of the room, and I watched a commentary during the movie. It was very intresting! It was brought into my room, and when I was done, I came out and finished my journal while Dad, Andrew, and Isaiah were watching silly Saturday Night Live episodes on Netflix for Xbox 360. So, as always, I set my DS alarm, then I went to sleep.

 

On the nineth day of Christmas,

These things happened to me

I went to the Youthgroup party

I played Chess with Sophie

We went to AWANA

WE SET UP OUR CHRISTMAS TREE

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 8: The Youthgroup Party

I slept in. Today was the day before Charles and Jenna (my brother and sister-in-law) Later this day, Isaiah and Mom left. She went to Target for Christmas shopping. While she was gone, me, Andrew and Sophie watched these Youtube videos on the Wii. (see video below)


They were very funny. Me and Sophie decided to watch movies on Netflix on Wii. When Mom got home, she got........... EGGNOG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (EGGNOG IS THE BEST!!!!!) She said that it was for tomorrow. I watched some more Youtube videos, such as this (see video below)

Mom remembered that it was Youthgroup today. I realized that it was a gift exchange party there. I brought a gift that I bought for a friend. My friend gave me a Hot Wheels car which when I got home, I gave to Sophie. When I got home, I watched some glitch videos on the computer. Tommorow is when Charles and his wife, Jenna are  coming over for an early Christmas celebration. I took a shower, and then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 7

I woke up at 6:45. My alarm clock wasn't set to the right time. I didn't even bother to turn on the alarm! (see near end of last post, before the song verse) I got up and started watching Youtube videos on the Wii. After a while, (and Mom waking up) I decided to use the internet on the Wii and go to Sonic Retro. Sophie woke up, and I started playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Mom told me to stop, so I started this journal. during that, (since I am writing this on a computer) I decided to put The Wizard on our Netflix queue. (Not to be confused with The Wizard of Oz) (see trailer below)


The reason why I chose it is because a Youtube video series that talks about the history of Nintenendo showed clips of The Wizard showing Super Mario Bros. 3, and I'd thought I'd like to see that movie. Mom told me to do my Morning Routine, so I did. After drying the dishes, I played a lot of games. Mom told me to stop playing for the rest of the day because of that. She told me to go do something constructive. I decided to play some games (not video, it's board, card, etc.) with Sophie. I ended up playing Chess with her. I can't remember much, so this is VERY shortened. Andrew left on Sonic Generations on the Xbox, so I snuck (and paused and turned off the TV when  people came) the game, and Mom caught me. "I'll think about your punishment" she said. Dad and the family were watching the Tintin movie and I decided to journal this. I also did something on my other blog, Sonic's Awesomeness. We watched a documentary about Monopoly. We almost played Monopoly, but it was getting near bedtime. I took a shower, watched a movie that Andrew, Isaiah, and Dad were watching, and then went to sleep.

Guess what? Only 5 days 'till Christmas!

On the seventh day of Christmas,

These things happened to me

I played Chess with Sophie

We went to AWANA

WE SET UP OUR CHRISTMAS TREE

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 6

I'm so sorry that these journals are getting shorter and shorter these days. I just couldn't get the time to finish it.


I woke up by my new DS alarm at 6:30. I went out and started watching Youtube videos on the Wii. I decided to play a game. I played Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Later, Isaiah left to the library. (he has a driving liscence now) I showed Andrew and Sophie a Youtube video. I played Mario 64 DS in my room for a while and then played Mario Galaxy. My grandfather came up, and he tried to fix the dishwasher (it was broken, which is the reason why we sometimes use my grandparents' dishwasher) and Isaiah helped. Isaiah left to meet his friend. I forgot to mention that this is School Vacation Week, and that's why I'm playing video games so much. Andrew left Isaiah's Xbox on, so I decided to play Sonic Generations on it. I can't remember much from yesterday. I usually write throughout the day, but this time, I finished it the day after. Back to the post.


               When Isaiah came home, he brought me and Andrew to AWANA. We had fun and played Gaga.When we came home, I did stuff, (I CAN'T REMEMBER!!!) and then accidently went to sleep due to staying under the covers in my bed thinking about stuff.

On the sixth day of Christmas,

I had this dream that we ate some of the candy canes that we bought yesterday (those candy canes were supposed to go on the Christmas tree) I slept in. I woke up to find the DS! I haven't found it for almost a YEAR! I went out and started my journal, while Andrew started playing Mario Galaxy. After he played, I started playing Sonic Adventure 2 Battle. Later, we left to ????????. (Shhhhh! it's a secret!) When we got home, the Christmas tree was set up! (see pictures below)

 

 

So, it was decorated, and I started playing Super Smash Bros. Melee and then Brawl. I watched an intresting Youtube video on the Wii, and then everybody started watching a Rhett & Link video. I ate dinner, took a shower, played DS in bed, and then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 4: Only 7 Days 'till Christmas!

I woke up. "What the heck?!!?!?" I said when I saw Sophie, Mom and Dad were watching Fat Albert (on Netflix on Wii). (we do not usually watch that show) After that, I decided to watch How It's Made and learn about factory made paper, jeans, old school computers, and glass. After that, I was thinking that they should put Sonic X on Netflix. Later, when I was folding the towels, Sophie was setting up her "store" (she likes to sell small things for pennies) and to be nice, she gave me most of her money. ($2.47) Later, Mom was on Facebook, and she said "Wow! Only a week 'till Christmas!" I said that we should get a Christmas tree. Later, we went and did. When we came back, we didn't set up the tree. We put it outback for today. We watched Game On! and then a bunch of Youtube videos all night. Then I went to sleep.

Andrew, Sophie and Mom woke up. (not simultaneously) I ate crackers. (I was thinking "This is not officially my breakfast.") So Andrew left to church. (today was Sunday) My Grandmother was going to drop me, Sophie, and Isaiah off to church later on. At 10:00, she did. We went to church and Market Basket. When we came home, my friend came to the party.That was the first guest who came. We had the party, (With only 3 guests) and Andrew started his. we had his, and I had fun playing Sonic Heroes and then Sonic Generations. I took a shower, and then went to sleep.

The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 2: The Dollar Store

I woke up at 7:00. I stayed in my room 'till 7:30. I came out, and suprisingly, no one was awake. I usally wake everybody up with my TV stuff at 6:00, but the alarm wasn't set. I started playing Sonic Adventure 2 Battle on the Wii, having fun with some glitches, including this: (see video below)
After that, Sophie woke up, and Mom did too. A friend came here, and picked up Andrew. Mom and I wanted to go to the Dollar Store and buy things for the Christmas party coming tomorrow. Sophie wanted to come, but she was coming to her friend's birthday party. She REALLY wanted to come, so Mom decided to go early. She told us to go do our Morning Routine, so we did. I listened to the Elf soundtrack and put it on for everyone. After that, she let me use the computer to do this journal. I wrote up to Here. {}

                       We put on our socks and shoes and I went down to get Sophie. She came up from the other side of the duplex. In other words, my Grandmother's house. I started the camera batteries charging so that Mom will be able to take pictures at the party. We left. I brought my GBA with 3 games. (Sonic Advance 3, LarryBoy and the Bad Apple, and Pac-Man) We went to the Dollar Store, Sophie's friend's party, a friend of Mom's and mine, and the library. I didn't know we were going to the last 2 places, so it was an unexpected handfull---I mean armfull to bring inside. I wanted to play Sonic Heroes, but Isaiah was using his Xbox. Later, he let me use it. (see video below)



                              I played 'till 5:00. Mom and Dad were going to watch a movie. They did. After that, me and Sophie watched Cars 2. (see trailer below)

We watched 2 hilarious shorts after that. (which were included in the DVD we got at the library) We prayed, I finished this journal, I took a shower, played GBA in bed, then went to sleep.

On the second day of Christmas,

These things happened to me

We went to the Dollar Store

And we went to Animal Club and presented seals



The 12 Days of Christmas Chapter 1: Animal Club

Welcome to The 12 Days of Christmas! Just to let you know, I will be putting LOTS and LOTS of Youtube videos and web links to show you what I was watching, playing, etc. because that you might not know what they are.

I slept in. Today was Sophie's seal presentation. (Let me rephrase that: Sophie is making a report on the beach seal for the Animal Club) Mom and Sophie were printing out pictures and putting them on a trifold. My Dad's computer (the "computer" that I was talking about in the last few journals) had bluescreened again yesterday, and it was damaged. We've used it so much, and it had something that I needed for Sunday. It was the plans for my Chistmas party. I had woked hard on it TWICE! I cried over it. after that, I decided to use Sophie's educational Leapster 2. I put the Sonic X cartride in and played it. (Even though it's a little kiddy device, I like to use it.) (see video below)


Finally the computer had booted up, and later, people started using it. I decided to go for 1 split second to jump drive my plan to my Mom's computer, which I used to journal this. Mom and Sophie were getting ready to leave, and I had to go too. I went. I brought my camera, and my GBA, with LarryBoy and the Bad Apple game inserted. We went to Animal Club, and Sophie presented her seal report and trifold. I met my friends and we had fun. Sophie's friend gave her a stuffed seal. When we got home, I read Bible and science and then played Super Smash Bros. Brawl. (see video below)

I wanted to play Sonic Heroes, but Isaiah told me that I can play tommorow. I worked on my Christmas party plan. I had one single thing left. Mom, Sophie and I watched an episode of How It's Made and we learned about CDs, cheese, nylon, and eridecent lights. After that, Sophie wanted to watch Chistmas with a Capital C. I decided to work on that one last thing. I finished the page and printed it. I listened to the Elf soundtrack I got for Christmas a couple years ago. I drew pictures about the songs. After that, I took a shower, played my GBA in bed, then went to sleep.

On the first day of Christmas,

This thing happened to me

We went to Animal Club and presented seals

Journal Entry 12/12/12: Wii Wednesday and AWANA

Today marks an important day. It's the last day of the centry where there are 3 digits of the same number in a row. Oh! Where was I? Oh yes! The post! Enjoy!

             I woke up at 6:00 by the alarm. Dad was watching a british car show called Top Gear on Netflix on Wii. When Dad left the room and left it on, I turned off Top Gear and looked for something else. Dad came out and we decided to watch America's Funniest Home Videos. (AFV) after it finished, we decided to watch Mythbusters. When Dad left the room after a while, I turned on The AristoCats. The Wii's internet stopped working, so I switched consles to the old Xbox 360. Mom woke up, and she asked me what I was watching. She was basically asking if I was watching AFV. I said yes, and Mom explained to me that when I watch it, I LTL, (Laugh Too Loud) which wakes her up. I told her that Dad didn't think of that. I asked her if I could journal, and she said yes, and I wrote up to Here. {}

Anyway, I was watching something silly that my brother (as Tuesday) did in A Year of Questions (see video below)

 My grandmother (we call her Grammy) came up from her side of the duplex, and she talked to Mom.

Sophie, my younger sister went on the computer. She looked on my blog, then she went to Nyan Cat. What stopped her was that Mom told her to get ready for zumba class. She told me to get dressed, make my bed, and read, so I did. I did some work when Mom got home. I cleaned the closet and put away clothes. After that, I went to Wii Wednesday at the library (see pictures below)

       Turns out the library was celebrating 12/12/12 too!. They gave away candies. When we got home, I ate dinner, which was pasta. After that we went to AWANA. (see pictures below)

When we got home, Andrew got a cool speaker set. We played them with music from Dad's Macbook. It was Autotune-y music at first, and then it went to regular music. I was looking on the computer, and also looking at old stuff, such as this (see video below)

 

After that, the computer bluescreened and Mom let me use her computer to finish this post. After that I took a shower, set my alarm, and went to sleep.

Journal Entry 12/11/12: Gone Shopping Again

6:00--8:30

I woke up by the alarm at 6:00. Surprisingly, Mom was awake. (I always try to wake up before everyone (with the exception of Dad sometimes) every morning) She told me that Dad woke her up accidently at 5:00. I told her that I wake up every morning before everyone else to get on the Wii and watch a movie on Netflix. (well, unless Dad is awake and watching something adulty on Netflix) She asked me if I could watch downstairs. (because she wanted quiet time) I thought of my brother Isaiah. Recently he bought a brand new Xbox from Gamestop. Since he bought it, he doesen't let me use it much, (and I'm saving up for a Gamecube copy of Sonic Heroes (we already have that for the old Xbox) for the same reason) and he only lets me if I ask him sometimes. I disagreed with Mom and she asked me what I'd watch upstairs. I decided Mythbusters. The myth to confirm on the episode I was watching was about if you could make a catapult out of a boom lift. After watching most of the episode I stopped and decided to watch Game On!, the documetary about the history of video games. I learned a lot from that, including that Sonic the Hedgehog was supposed to represent how fast the Sega Genesis runned. I decided to journal what just happened. I wrote up to Here. {}

8:30--2:30

                         So, I decided to plan for a Christmas party coming on the 16th. Mom was leaving Christmas shopping again. When she left, she turned off the computer. After she left, Sophie watched a couple episodes of the Curios George TV show on Netflix. I ate an Instant Lunch Hot and Spicy Beef Flavor. THOSE ARE AWESOME AND ADDICTING!!!! My brother Andrew turned back on the computer, allowing me to write this. After that, I decided to watch Sesame Street: Follow That Bird!. Sophie was watching Cars Toons: Mater's Tall Tales on the computer, (see trailer below)



 and I couldn't find something else to watch on Netflix on the Wii. I started The AristoCats, but stopped, and me and Sophie got into a fight for going on the computer. I decided to watch Youtube on the Wii, and this is what I watched. (see videos below)




Anyway, I helped Sophie at times, and at the end, the computer mysteriously shut off, and Dad told me and Sophie to go outside, and after 5 minutes, I came inside and watched Pocahontis II with her. After that, Sophie decided to watch a really girly movie, so I decided to go downstairs in the other side of the duplex to watch AFV on my Grandmother's (we mainly call her Grammy) TV on Dish Network. Mom came home, and I asked her to turn on the computer to journal. Mom let me, and after a little, she told me to both put away the dishes and load the dishwasher. She left AGAIN, this time to a friend's house. I did this journal and wrote up to Here. {}

                           3:00--10:00


                I watched a really cool video, then did Funbrain. Then I did my reading. I went to the computer and worked on my Christmas party, and she didn't come back 'till 6:00. I ate dinner, took a shower, played GBA in bed, same game as last post, then went to sleep.

Journal Entry 12/10/12: Mom went Christmas Shopping

I woke up at 6:19. (I didn't have the alarm set up last night.) Dad was watching the NBC news on our Xbox. After a little, Dad let me use it. We watched Stuart Little 2 on Netflix (See trailer below)


After we watched that, Mom told me to do my Morning Routine, so I did. (see pictures below)

 

 

I coudn't finish, because Mom told me to organize the card piles of Quelf and Apples to Apples. She also told me to fold and put away the clothes. After that, Sophie wanted me to make her a Ramen Soup, so I did. Later, Mom was leaving to go Christmas shopping, so I did reading. After that, we watched a movie. The movie was Elf. SO FUNNY YOU GOTTA SEE THAT!!!!!! HERE'S A TRAILER!!!!! (see trailer below)

So after THAT, I decided to watch another movie, but Sophie chose one that I didn't want, which was Curious George 2 (Trust me, I like a few little kiddy stuff, but I just wanted to choose the movie, that's all.) (see trailer below)

Mom came home with groceries (I asked her for food). We started cooking Pasta for dinner. It was yummy! At 7:30, me and sophie both went to our rooms and I looked at the Great Big Book of Childeren's Games and found the game Assasin. It's not violent! I think that would be a good game. So Sophie came into my room and we played together. I took a shower after a little, and after that I played my Game Boy Advance, Sonic Advance 3 in bed, then went to sleep.
