Dale's Birthday Party

This Saturday I went to my friend Dale's birthday at Sky High. In Sky High, there was free play arena where there is a room made up of trampolines. Another place is dodge ball trampoline arena. I was in the free play arena doing flips since I was jumping so high. I also ran onto the walls.

In the dodge ball I got out the first time I went in because a 16 year old hit me. Then the next few games I survived till the end. I kept on switching and racing with Dale. It was really fun. At the free play arena, I kept on jumping and racing. It was raining that day, but I was completely covered in sweat!

Next I ate pizza. I ate 2 slices of pepperoni pizza and ate cake. The cake was Oreo ice cream cake. It was one of the best I have ever tasted.

After I ate cake, I played one last game of dodge ball and went all the way home. At Home I had a good time and went to sleep.

Pumpkin Pie

Today at school we made pumpkin pie. First half of my group including me, made the crust. First we added 2 cups of flour, the 1 full cup of butter. We mashed those two together until they were combined. We opened a can of evaporated milk and poured a little bit and took it out of the plate. We made it into crust!

After we made a crust, my half of the group made the pie part. When we made the pie I put an egg, and cinnamon and lots of other things. We mixed it all together and took it to the ovens.

At 2:00 when we were all bored from work the pies came. My class's buddies also came to eat the pie we made.We at the pie and had lots of fun. But then, our buddies had to go we said good bye and went outside for free play.

What a fun afternoon I had!

King Arthur part 3

The roman soldiers all prepared themselves from the Saxon's oncoming attack.The knights dressed in roman armor and waited inside the castle.When the Saxons charged in, there was nobody there.

All of a sudden, a shower of arrows hit the Saxons through the mist. The woman with an army of archers stood upon a tall cliff where the Saxons couldn't see them.Through the mist charged the 8 knights. They slashed and hacked, and before any Saxons could react, the knights rode away.

This time the army shot flaming arrows. The knights rode out again, attacking the Saxons. By then there were no Saxons left.But, that was only a little part of the Saxon army.

The rest of the army,hearing silence all charged into the fortress. They ran straight into the arrows.The arrow army charged and got out their swords.Lots of the army died but the knights charged plus the romans.

At the end, Lancelot and 2 other knights died. I didn't explain the full story so you can watch it yourself

Pizza

Today at swim school I had a pizza party. We got to make our own pizza, which was pretty fun.I was one of the last to be called so I was starving by then.

When I actually got to the kitchens I found out that we made our own pizza. I put as much cheese as I could. Then I put some pepperoni and no olives. I went back to watch the movie as they put my pizza in the oven.

The pizza's bread smelled good and was covered in cheese. The cheese was really good. The pepperoni was almost like salami. I did not put that much of pepperoni. The olives were black.I did not put any olives!

When my pizza was good I started getting food. I got some grapes, alot of doritoes, and a ton of barbecue lays. Then I started watching a movie called Toy Story Three. At first I thought the movie was weird. But now I know the movie is actually really funny.

At 7:30 the movie ended. My mom picked me up and my dad drove us home.

King Arthur

Part 2 One of the nights with a big axe busted open the stones. He found another door that was looked from the inside. He kicked the door until it opened. Inside was a religious jail with priests and people. All the people were inside a green jail. Some were already dead but a child and woman were still alive.

They took the child and the woman and evacuated. All the knights rode ahead to scout while the townspeople walked or sat in carriages. They were all wondering if the Saxons would catch up to them.

All of a sudden, they got to a plain of ice. The knights said they would stay with alot of arrows and bows to attack the Saxons. By then, all of the villagers could hear the drums of the Saxon's army.

The Saxons stopped a about 50 yards in front of the Knights and started advancing. King Arthur told them to shoot at the right of the army to make the Saxons cluster. What he said worked the Saxons all went to clump together so the Knights could shoot them.

Without hesitation the Knight with the Axe rushed out and started attacking the ice. One arrow from the Saxons hit him, the 2 arrows, at last three. AT the third arrow though, he cracked the ice all open so must of the Saxons died in the water, of fled.

At last the knight with the rich family reached the roman wall again. They were given there freedom but the still had to fight the main army of the Anglo Saxons. The Battle had really just began.Part 2

King Arthur

On Sunday I watched a movie called "The Legend Of King Arthur". The movie was almost 2 hours long, but it was really good. In the movie it said King Arthur was related to a person thousands of years earlier in the dark ages. Now I'm going to tell you about it.

King Arthur had a group of eight knights called the Knights of the Round Table. They were escorting a roman cart to go behind a roman wall. The Knights had to be working for the romans until they got freedom.

The knights plus the cart was going forward when suddenly a big rabble of wild people came to attack them. The knights rode on their horses, and charged across the hill to attack the wild men. They fought most and the rest ran away. Then the romans reached the roman wall.

The roman wall was an ancient wall that was 63 miles long with roman guards patrolling the walls. When the knights got back to the wall, the Bishop said that they had one more mission to do before they were set free. The mission was to escort a rich family to the wall and help them defeat a raid of Saxons. The Saxons were viking like people with big beards and lots of fur. They were also like vikings when it comes to temper. The can fight amongst themselves 5 times a day.

So a first light the knight rode on horses to finish their mission. At the woods there suddenly was a shower of arrows with spiky chains so the horses cannot move. The knight drew the sword and cut the chains. They attacked the wild men that was attacking them back and then made their horses get out of the woods to the plains.

They were crossing the mountains when it started snowing. But they got to the rich person's house all ready. The rich person refused to go. But at the end he went. They were about to go when the saw a person piling bricks on a stone door... part 1

TV

On many days I sit on the sofa and turn on the TV. TV is probably the most popular thing in the house. When my dad gets home we eat dinner. Then sometimes my dad will go to the TV to watch football or basketball.

On many weekends I also watch TV on my free time. I watch lots of things. I go channel after channel to find something good to watch. Sometimes I even go on demand to watch other shows so I won't be annoyed by lots of ads.

On a few Fridays I watch a movie with my family. The fist time we did that my family watched Lord Of the Rings. It was a pretty good movie. The bad thing was it was 3 hours long so it took us three Fridays in stead of one.

For one thing, my mom does not watch TV a lot. It's only when she finds one of those movies with a bunch of episodes when she watches. At most she watches 10 times a year. My mom also likes watching horror movies.

My dad watches a lot of Sunday night football. I don't really care but I get annoyed when I want to watch a video or movie.

After all, almost everyone likes TV. Don't you?

School

After a few months of school, school got more interesting even though it was harder than the first few days. I have math, science, geography, and reading.

Every day after recess I have math. I have to run to my class, get my math materials and run to my math class. I am in advanced math so I have to go to a different class to learn math. At math I do daily spiral first then I correct my homework from last night. After correcting the class does math problems from a book. At 11:30 I leave and go to my room for reading.

In reading time The class reads a big book with lots of stories. The company is called Houghton Mifflin. The last story we read a story that was called Boss Of The Plains. That story was about a really useful hat. After we finished that story, we open a practice book and do four pages of work.

On some Fridays I go to the science lab. Last session we were learning about plants and environment. We also got some insects and bugs. For the plants we planted them in a big plastic box, watered did and then sealed it of from the air. but there was still air inside the box so the plants lived. The plants all grew pretty tall. The week after that the science teacher told us to put beetles and isopods inside the box.That sealed of box is actually called a terrarium. Did you no that isopod means equal feet?

AT 1:00 I have geography. In geography, I read a book for about 40 minutes long. In the book there is a bunch of boring stuff about California soil, petroleum oil,blah blah blah blah blah on and on and on about those things. Geography is the most boring thing in school now.


About then we right down our homework and I go home.

Halloween

On October 23, I went trick-or-treating at 6:00 to 8:00. I used an empty trash bag for getting candy. Boy, it was fun. I ran around with my friends to get candy. I had my trash bag filled half way when I finished.

I went to my friend Dale's house on Halloween with some of his friends.First we played a little computer. Then, when it was 6:00 we went out to go trick-or-treating when it was not even dark yet. But anyway we ran across from house to house for candy.

We ran a lot. Then we ran off and Dale's dad lost us. We were walking in complete darkness with a dark old house and creepy music coming from it. It was creeping me out. I didn't know what was there, so we advanced slowly to the house. No one was there. So we all ran away. Everyone was relieved to get out of that place and go back to a place with lights.

When Dale's dad found us, Dale hid under a blue car. Tom, one of the people that were invited, told Dale's dad were he was hiding. To Dale's dad's surprise, Dale popped up behind another car!

At 8:00 I got back to my dad's house and waited for my mom and my sister to come back while watching the world series. Giants won! Well that's all I did on Sunday.
