Back to School..

   So, last Tuesday, I had to go back to school. And once you get to 7th grade, you find out that school is no longer fun. I was welcomed back with the happy news of three tests that week. How fun. I never feel like getting up in the morning anymore, even if I have no school. Lately, me and my brother have been watching the TV show Adventure Time, which seems like a kid show at first, but as you keep watching, you realize that it is actually pretty deep. And scary. And it has this whole complicate backstoryabout a mushroom war and mushroom bombs, and in some episodes you can see the wreckage. Other than being pretty creepy at points, this show can also be cute, since there is a candy kingdom with talking candy and all sorts of ther sweets. That's about all folks! I'll try to blog more later. I really can't think of anything to write right now.

My All-Nighter Experience

    So this last week, my church had an all-night lock-in for its youth group. Me and my brother attended and it was AMAZING!  If anyone does not know what a lock in is, it is a night where a bunch of people come together and stay up all night (or most of the night). We went to the church and we played that game where you have a name of a famous person stuck to your head. Then you try to guess it. Our big group then split and half of us played a card game named Bang, then the other half played Call of Duty. We were tired, so everything was funny. Some of us then played Baloney in the Snow. Then we played Hide and go seek in the dark. That was hilarious! After that is when I fell asleep, I then woke up to the sound of a discussion about a zombie apocalypse. By that point it was 5 in the morning. We just hung out for the next 3 hours and played more Call of Duty. At 8, some of the older boys went to McDonalds, and bought bought hashbrowns. That was delicious. I really don't remember the rest because i was too tired. THE END!

Minecraft in the Wall Street Journal!

As some of you may know, one of my favorite games ever in Minecraft. Today my friend at school said it was in the wall street journal so I thought I would share it with you guys

There you go! You can copy/paste that to get to the place. It talks about people who make parody songs for Minecraft. Some people who make songs are
1.CaptainSparklez
2.Blue Xephos
3.MineCraft4meh
A lot of people do this as you can see.

Huh? Where did Summer go?

Wait a second. School is TOMORROW? AHHHHHHHH!!! It really caught me buy surprise a week ago when I thought to myself, "Man, I should probably start shopping for supplies." Then a few days later, "Man, I have to get my schedule and text books!" Then today, "Tomorrow is school?" So as you can see I have gotten pretty used to the usual summer schedule. You know, waking up at 9 and going to sleep at 11. Because of this, I've had to practice going to bed at 9 and getting up at 6. Why is school so early? Well teachers just want to annoy you.....and themselves apparently because, well, they have to go to school too. You know who gets up early to go to work? Mr. Haley, our vice - principal. He is much nicer that our principal Mrs. Bowers. She doesn't do anything. She just sits in her office, talks to kids and sips on coffee. Mr. Haley does all the work. After getting my schedule this year I have seen that I am not in the same classes with a lot of my friends, so I guess I'll just have to make more huh? But I know I am in all the same classes with my friend Will. That could be either very good or veeeerrrrry bad. He's one of those guys who you are friends with and you invite him to your birthday party. When he talks to your other friends, you put your face in your hands and ask yourself why you became friends with a guy like him. But he is very nice when he's not annoying. Anyways, that's really all I can think up right now. T-T-F-N
Fun Fact!: Did you know that I got an award that year for being kind, considerate, and laughing at peoples jokes when they may not be funny? Please consider that I was given this award by my peers.

Back to School (again)

School is coming again. Unfortunately. This is the time of year that most middle school kids like me dread. In elementary school you are sort of excited to go back to school, get new supplies, see your friends. But when you are going into seventh grade like me these reasons to want to go back to school are drowned out by the fact that you remember how school was last year in sixth grade. The mile run, pre-algebra, essays, response to literature, and fitness testing that could actually affect your grade. This makes me not want to go back to school much. Last year I only had four teachers. One for band, math and science, english and history, and PE. This year I will have one for each subject. Ewwwwww. The only thing I'm excited for is Bengal Day. That is the day that I get all my text books, unimportant forms, and my schedule. Once I have my schedule I can compare it with my friends so I know who is in my class. My conclusion: School loses its excitement over the years. Das it! T-T-F-N

VBS

So last week my church had a VBS. (Vacation Bible School) I was a crew leader. This means that I have to watch over kids and make sure they have fun and pay attention. I already knew from training that I was in the Orange group. I was handed a piece of paper and I found out I had a group of all girls. There were five girls on the first day but Emily, one of the girls, was scared of me and did not come for the rest of the week.
:(    But for the rest of the week I had four happy girls, Lauren, Faith, Gabby, and Maddie. they were all well behaved and listened to the bible stories carefully.

Gabby: On Tuesday, Gabby, the youngest, listened to why we were collecting food and money. Our church was saving money for the Eskimos in Alaska. Gabby was given a packet of Top Ramen for her to eat if she got hungry. When she was told the story of the Eskimos in Alaska who had to pay about $14 for a box of cereal, she asked me for her Top Ramen. I thought she was hungry so I gave it to her. She grabbed it out of my hand and ran to the front of the sanctuary and placed the noodles in the basket where we were collecting donations. And I didn't even tell her to! I thought that was really cool.

Maddie: Maddie was probably the most talkative of all the girls, but has a very friendly personality. When I first met her, I hadn't met her before. We were complete strangers. I told her my name. She told me hers..............and talked about what she had done that morning like what cereal she ate and what time she woke up. She was so enthusiastic to talk about her family, her hobbies, and her pets. The worship team was walking onto the stage and I told her we had to start. She jumped up and when we started singing, she was sure she didn't miss one hand motion that Miss Kerry, did. (Miss Kerry made up hand motion to make the songs more fun.) I was amazed at how much she learned over the course of VBS, and she not only learned about how to tell others about Christ, but also how to trust God more.

Lauren: Lauren was the most silly but the most enthusiastic. She probably didn't sit out for anything that we did. I remember when I told my group to go play in the games rotation. In one of the games there was a collision. A girl was crying and no one really noticed except a few kids. Lauren was the one who took action. While the rest of the kids just watched the girl cry, she ran to me telling me what happened. Lauren may attack you with hugs when you don't expect her too but she is very caring and considerate to the people around her.

Faith: Probably the most timid of the group, Faith was my little helper. She held my bag, kept the girls in line when I wasn't watching, helped clean up the mess after snack, and much more. Faith kept everything organized. On the last day, the kids brought swimsuits for the slippin' slide. When they were changed all our stuff was a big pile of towels, sun block, bags, and clothing. Faith sat down next to the pile and folded the towels and clothes and made four neat piles of stuff. Wow. What kids can do without you telling them to.

So thats all folks. T-T-F-N!
