Lawn Mowing


Well today was nice! I actually woke up for Cross country. And i was rewarded too! After we ran, smitty treated us to Donuts! So that wa snice, then came home and found the lawn needed a mowing. So i tried to mow then th emower wasnt workin, so i charged it battery and went inside. While inside I was bored so i decided to tackle the flickrcolourcontest project! It was like some contest flickr offered when they were unexpectedly down the other day. I had some fun possing for the pictures. Then by the time i finished that, i went back to try the mower, and it was working so i mowed. I even mowed a huge amount of weeds. It was quite fun. Then after that went to start the watching of Loki and Kayna (two dogs). I get to watch them every evening until the 31st, so that should be fun. Loki has a bunch of energy, its amazing. Then after that we went bowling! That was fun, we hadnt done that in a bit. And now here I am. Though i have cameras from someone a tmy mom's work who wants me to be a photographer on Saturday. So he has all these expensive cameras. Like a Nikon D2X and a Nikon D200. They are really nice cameras with all these other toys that come with them! Like a 18-200 lens, 50mm lense, and a fisheye! I've never used a fisheye, but they are kind of fun! So I plan to have some fun tomorrow with it! But its amazing, and i have alot to learn in like a day. But other than that, thats about all! Havent been up to much more!

So on that note, I'm going to get some sleep!

Relax

Today was a nice day to relax. First I woke up late and missed practice this morning. But that allowed me to sleep liek like 12:30! so that was great and relaxing. Then i hung around the house for the afternoon, made a sandwich, but really thats all. Then we went to that concert on the common, which was aweful. So we left and walked ot crokeys. Where we got a nice ride on the pond, which was very pretty! If only i had brought the camera! Then we came in and hung out and watched Parent Trap. And then thats about it for th enight. Thats really all ive done! Pretty relaxing day!

And now im going to bed!

Heat Stroke

Heat. I've had enough of it! Well in extremes i guess. I mean i love a nice like 70s day or something. Trouble is, New England weather doesnt permit such a thing! No we either get like freezing cold, or soo freaking hot that when u step outside you are on the ground halfway into your heat stroke.

Now i made the stupid move of going to ross coutnry practice today. I mean around 10:30, the heat of the day has settled in and its purty warm! And its not only warm, its humid. So yeah, i Woke up and then went off to practice, which happened to be quite long, well not long but challenging. Our home course which has a huge hill that you have to run up twice. Now in this weather that wasnt too easy. So i did the only thing i thought best...WALK! That was good, and th eonly way i survived. Afterword i finally got home and nearly fainted when i entered the air conditioned house. It felt so amazing. So i stood infront of the AC, then i had drum lessons. But after that i had to mow a lawn. Now luckily i got to get wet and cool me down. then afterwords we got to go swimming! Which felt amazingly good! Then headed off to mikes to spend the night and playing some intense jenga, which the dares i did not like! But then i wound up at home!

So the day went from bad to good! This morning started off frustrating, but at the end now, im quite happy! So thats a good day for ya! Now I think i might head off to bed! It's getting late, and i kno im gunna make th emistake of going to practice. But i guess torture is good for some time!

So with that said...I'm gunna go! Talk to you all later, as long as i dont die from heat stroke!


Stay Cool,

Tired

Wow...quite tired. I'll make this quite brief. The beach this morning was really fun! Got some sun, think i burned a bit, but ive noticed it doesnt hurt like i remember sunburns doing. Which I am veery happy about. Let's see after that the whole drivers ed didnt work out. Which once again they have failed to respond. This driver ed company is making me quite mad. But i was able to get over that because instead we all went and saw Superman Returns which i thought was quite good! I mean at some times i found it a bit predictable, but i mean its gotta be hard not to make it predictable. He's superman for crying out loud! Of course hes not going to die! But te plot was pretty cool and i think they did a good job trying to bring superman back into the spotlight.

O and today i hit random buttons and i found out how to do an upside down question mark! ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ hehehee! See you press shift+alt+? Atleast on the mac thats what it is. Let me go test the PC. Huh didnt work! But thanks to google :-) I figured it out! but geeze, windows has to be complicated. Hold alt then on the numberpad type "0191". It works but is so much more work. Well wasnt that informative!

Other than that the day was alright, some frustrations but whatever. Now i am pretty tired so i think im gunna end it there. Night all!

Here We Go Again

Ok well looks like i got bored again and have decided that to entertain myself I'll keep this blog! Now first things first everyone must be like why the heck is it called The Lilliputian. Now I wish i had some creative and clever reasoning for naming it so, but in reality, it is just a word I had stuck in my head from a prior vocab lesson. It's a fun word if you actually look at it. So yea thats about the half of the name. Well actually maybe the full. Because by saying thats the half you might expect more, as in I've only told you half of the reason. But actually thats all of it. I just had it stuck in my head and well it kinda sounds like a cool blog name! So thats the deal with that.

Now i am exploring this whole blog thing again. You know I dont usually keep these things up, but i figre that its summer and I really don't have anything to keep me busy so what the heck, this will keep me busy and make me type and mabe tire me out enough and force me to go to bed. But after summer is over, forget it, next school year will be busy enough without worry whether or not i've kept my blog updated. And the true question is...Who reads my blog anyway. I mean its a bunch of words, i imagine its quite boring, but hey its kind of fun for me, plus its always fun to look back on it.

But now I think i wasted enough of your time! I think ill sit around and listen to some more musacc, then head off to bed! Yea get to enjoy the beach life tomorrow morning! Then hopefully drivers ed. You kno its agrivating with this driving school, she tells us we can drive with her, then she calls and tells us she cant and that we have to call Andy, and then he wont pick up the phone and we will end up not going! So i hope that works out. But hopefully a nice peaceful day tomorrow! Hmmm.... Yea well that about all i got for you! Night all, or morning or afternoon depending on when you read this!

Chow!
