See this little baby? It’s mine! I got it as a belated, belated, belated birthday present, since I’m doing more activities and need a phone. (But I mainly play on it!) I’ve kind of hopelessly wished for years, and now I have one!

See the slide out qwerty key pad? Perfect for my fat fingers. The screen is so big I don’t have to squint without my contacts! And the screen is touchscreen! It even connects to the internet when we are at a hotspot!

But, it is best for playing games. You know ANGRY BIRDS! Sadly, I’ve been warped by my little brother to  play the games too. Don’t worry, I’m not as far gone.

The other day we went to a theatre practice and I had my phone belted on to my waist with one of those clippy cases. Bad idea! It fell off, and I couldn’t find it! I searched that theatre high and low and the car! I called and caled it! We finally had to leave. The next day Mom thought that we should search the grass where we parked. We were pulling in and I yelled,” That’s it!” It was in the parking lot all night, and it didn’t get stolen or run over! Now I have learned my lesson, and am much more careful. Speaking of my phone, I had better go find it….

It finally comes out this weekend, after waiting for years! The Hobbit has always been one of our family’s favorite books. And I recently saw The Lord of the Rings for the first time, so that will make it increasingly appropriate. After waiting this long, it had better be good!

From a young age I’ve listened to The Hobbit, and I just recently read it. Who couldn’t love Bilbo? All of the characters are excellent, though.  It’s surprising that they made that little book into three movies, though!

I enjoyed the Lord of the Rings. I think I’ll like this one better though, because I am more into adventure than war. (And because we were forced to look away for a third of it!) I like more of the focus on Bilbo and finding out how a little hobbit can make such a difference in the world!

But, I am sure I will like the other two movies better. This one has…… dare I say his name…… Gollum! (shiver) I’ve had a lifelong fear of him. If you’d have seen the old cartoon version you would understand. He looked like a frog and had such an evil voice.  And it doesn’t help that my siblings go around saying “Precious” and “IT came to me on my birthday!” So you can pity me as I lie in bed shivering one dark night after I see it…..

Super Mario Galaxy

Super Mario Galaxy-

My personal favorite of the two. Super Mario Galaxy stunned gamers everywhere with it’s amazing graphics. I’ve played this game on my own, but I have mainly served as “top co-star” for my dad. He has beaten this game with Mario and Luigi. (Quite an impressive feat!) When he played as Mario, he kept telling my mom only a couple more stars and then I have beaten it!  Then Luigi was unlocked, and of course he had to beat it with him too!

Super Mario Galaxy 2-

The graphics are even clearer and brighter than the first.  My job as co-star had a dramatic increase, since I was a luna instead just being able to click on things. There also is a few

new items such as the cloud suit and boulder suit, and Yoshi appears. In my opinion, the first game is better. Why? Well, the first hundred or so levels are really easy for the champion of the first game. Once you get through the those levels you get a few INCREDIBLY hard levels. Also disappointed, was the lack of storyline like the first. In the first game we got to know Rosalina and her story but here it’s pretty much just the same old “Save the princess” or “The princess is in another castle” storyline. It is still a very good game and worth playing though.

Super Mario Galaxy 3?

I still check periodically for confirmed news of this. They might do it on the Wii-U or the 3DS, but being a house of wii players I’m hoping it will be for the wii. I’m guessing the co-star job will increase and a few new power ups will also appear.

Bonjour!
I just started Rosetta Stone French. I couldn’t let the little garcon of our house outdo me. For some reason I have a lot of trouble pronouncing “Garcon”, but other than that it is going well.

He is trying to save up for “Angry Birds Knock on Wood”, so he gets a quarter for every lesson he does. For some reason the Angry Birds obsession that has swept the nation has taken over him too. He has three plush toys of the birds. There is a lot of squawking going on at our house.

Angry Birds Knock on Wood

The sea wasp is the most venomous jellyfish. Its poisoning ability is greater than any snake. Its search for shrimp leads it to the beach where people are often found swimming. It’s so deadly that when stung, a swimmer dies in the attempt to stagger to shore.  This transparent creature, which is difficult to see, is only found in Australia’s oceans.  This blob of neurotoxin can kill over 50 people.  The sea wasp is the deadliest creature alive.

This well known phrase written by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton definitely describes tonight. A dark gruesome cloud fills the oddly lit sky. My scared dog looks nervously around while sitting at my side in the basement. The ominous questions that lurk in mind are: will we have to spend hours in the basement with my freaked out dog and nutty little brother? Will I get dinner? These are the questions that haunt me.
