Another day at Michael's

Today I went over to Michael's house at 1:00. Once I arrived I greeted Max (Michael's mom trains guide dogs) and me and Michael played Guitar Hero III. First we played Stricken and then Before I forget. Finally we ended with Welcome to the Jungle and Rock you like a Hurricane. After we finished we played Sins of a Solar Empire on computer. It was okay but I really didn't care for that game. It had too many things to do and it was too confusing. After we finished our game we played Guild Wars. He helped me with the mission in Napui Quarter in Factions. This mission you halve to destroy four star constellations: a turtle, a Phoenix, a dragon, and a gazelle/goat thing. I forget their names though. I finally beat Napui Quarter one of the hardest missions. Afterword we looked at armour on the Guild Wars Wiki. After we looked at varies armours we dicided to play Through the Fire and Flames on Guitar Hero III. Michael played on expert and I played on medium. I won the face-off (obviously Through the Fire and Flames is the hardest song). Then we decided to go outside and just talk for awhile (and pet Max). Finally we ended by playing Defend Your Castle on wii and Link's Crossbow Training.

The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor


On Saturday after noon my dad, Michael (brother), and I went to the movie theatre to see The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor. It was okay but I really didnt like it that much the first two were much better. Eve was played by a different actor in this movie and Alex was much older. I would give this movie a three star at the most.

Registering for High School

On friday the 8th I went to Pacific Grove High School for registration. We waited outside the multi-purpose room for it to open and finally we got in, turned in papers, and I got my picture taken. After we headed for the library where I got my books.

Alaska

Tomorrow my brother, mom, step-dad, and I head for Alaska for a week. We will be fly fishing like crazy up there. While everbody is fishing for salmon we will be catching the trout. Instead of fishing off the banks of a river or lake we will be float tubing. I have never float tubed before so it will be a new experience for me. We will fly into Anchorage at about midnight tomorrow.

Journey To The Center Of The Earth


On Saturday night my dad, my brother, and I went to see Journey To The Center Of The Earth. I never saw the original so I can't compare it but I thought it was pretty good. What I liked most about the movie was that it was never boring at any parts it just kept going and going with action at every corner. I would give it a four star.

Golf At Peter Hay

Today at 11:00 I went to the Bagel Bakery before we went to play golf. I had a plain bagel and Michael (brother) had a pizza bagel. After we were done eating we got in the car and went to Peter Hay golf course located in Pebble Beach. This course is a nine hole course all par 3. I did surprisingly well seeing that I have not played in a year. I got 5 pars (3), 3 bogeys (4), and 1 double bogey (5). The only clubs I used were my pitching wedge, sand wedge, and putter. Most of the time I got on the green or near the green. The longest hole was about 104 yards and the shortest was about 68 yards. My total score was only 5 over par.

Dawn of War At Michael's House


Today at approximately 3:00 I was picked up at the house and I went to Michael's. Upon arrival we immediately began playing Guitar Hero. After playing half of Smoke on the Water the game started to stop so we switched to Guitar Hero II. In the middle of Playing YYZ just passing by, Skyler arrived at the house and joined in. We switched to Guitar Hero III and me and Skyler did a face off on Through the Fire and Flames, I was victorious (ha ha). Me and Michael begun playing Guild Wars. He helped me find quests for my dervish-monk. We were not so lucky finding quests. We decided to quit and play Dawn of War. This game is based off of Warhammer 40,000 and is rated M but luckily you can turn off the blood (Only reason Michael was able to get it). I chose the space marines and quickly begun a game. I have never played before so it was new to me but the controls I pretty much new because it was an RTS game (Real Time Strategy). This game was one of the most fun games I have ever played (five star) and I highly recommend it for anyone who enjoys war games. It takes place 40,000 years into the future and it is all about guns, grenades, flamethrowers, plasma cannons, missile launchers, etc. At 5:00 my parents picked me up.
