Tuesday, New Class, Career tests!

       Today was Tuesday. I had Moday off of school. I got up and put on my fancy clothes. It was wierd because I havent had to wear them in 4 days. I walked straight to the Bus. I played Pokemon Go on the way to school. Once I got to school, I got some Chocolate Covered Rasins from the vending machine because I had no food this morning.

          I went to registration first, and we were changing classes today. We have 8 rotations in a year. The first rotation was from beginning of school to September 26, which every Tuesday, I had biology. Now, I have a new subject every Tuesday for 2 periods. This new subject is "Cosmology" which is the study of the origin, evolution and the eventual fate of the universe. Its a pretty awesome topic. We talked about how small we really are compared to everything else and how small an atom is. We talked about how light can travel around the earth 4 times in 1 second but still takes 8.5 minutes to get from the Sun to here. We also learned our nearest star other than the Sun is 4.5 Light years away (distance in which it takes light to travel) And there are 500,000,000,000 Stars in our Galaxy. Then we learned how there are 500,000,000,000 Galaxys and its crazy.


      History, I suggested that we watch a John Oliver video about the Scandals with Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump and it was really funny. If you dont know who John Oliver is you should look him up. From after our break at 11:30, we had tests. We first had a 200 question test about what we like to do so they can put together what job would be best for us. They asked things like if we liked working outdoors or physically or if we likes beeing in an office all day. Then we had a series of timed tests that asked us questions that we would see on an IQ test. Find the next shape or object according to the past 3 objects things like that. We got to leave school early, but I stayed after for Model United Nations.

      Since I was knew I just watched. Basically someone reads our paper we have on what issue we discuss and if we are for or against it we raise our name of what country we are representing, then ask  a question to challenge the guy speaking for it or against it. It was confusing but I will get it soon.

Day Off, Graffiti Alleys, Pokemon Go!

      Monday, I had a day off because my School starts Earlier than others, so we get to have a day off to make up for the early start. Friday, Levi had his friend Jonah over for a sleepover right after school. Saturday, I went with Levi, Jonah and Oma to go to the 2 Markets that we went last weekend again to get more vegetables and eat lunch. We played Pokemon Go on the way there and back. We got to the first Food Co-Op and we all got Scrambled Eggs on Toast and then we each got our own Pancake. Then, we walked back home. We stopped and met my Mom at St Stevens Green Shopping Center.

       My Mom bought me a new pair of Tennis Shoes or "Trainers" as they call them here. I think that is weird so I call them Tennis Shoes. They were Blue and Green, really cool looking and Really Comfortable! Oma then took Levi and Jonah home, while Me and My mom went to get more things for me. First we had to go to Easons to get some school supplies for me to work on my first Transition Year Project. I got a Scrapbook and some Colored Paper. Next, we went out to find 2 Piano books my new Teacher Wanted me to buy. Watsons did not have any of them so we found another store that had them. Then we walked home finally.

          When we got home, Jonah Stayed for dinner. After Dinner, Jonahs family stopped by, and hung out with us for about an hour with Oma. My Mom left at about 7:30 PM to go see a play. I Met Jonahs Brother. We watched YouTube Videos, and then they all tried to do water bottle Flips. Saturday night, I stayed up until about 3:30 AM watching Season One of Stranger Things. Its my favorite Show now. I think I might need to watch Season one over because there is only one season.

          Sunday, We stayed in side the whole day basically. I had to do my Piano, and I cleaned the bathrooms. We had a good breakfast. My Mom made us Scrambled eggs.

          Monday was the most exciting day. I set my alarm for 7 AM. I actually Got up at 7 AM, and I was going to go Pokemoning. I had my 2 Chargers Charged. I got up, and I brought a Backpack to hold all of my things. It was raining, so I wore a Rain Coat outside. I got outside at about 7:30 AM, and It was raining and the water kept getting on my screen and It was really annoying. The rain wore off after about an hour. I walked down Leeson Street to the Canal. It is a river that runs through Dublin. Jonah told me that there was a lot of good Pokemon There. There was a ton of Magicarp and Staryus. I walked up and down the canal twice. I was by my Moms work at one point and by Levis school at another. Levi had school today because It was Monday.

       I got some cool pictures of the Canal, and with a random Statue sitting on a Bench:

Random Statue!

Me Walking on the Canal!

          When I walked up by Levis School, I was walking on a road off of the Canal, and I went down an Alley for a Pokestop, and It was filled with Graffiti and It looked really awesome!

               I ended up walking back to St. Stevens Green after I was done with the Canal. I went through the park playing Pokemon Go. I fought a Gym, then I went to Subway. I got a Footlong Turkey and Ham. I walked back through the Park to go home and bought a bottle of Fiji water on the way back home. When I got home, I ate my Subway and watched some YouTube Videos. After that I started piano. By the time Oma got Back I was still working on Piano but then she had to walk straight to go get Levi. Its 3:15 PM Right now and I think I will go Pokemon Go Hunting before Dinner. 

           Also Over the weekend I cant remember What Day, but I Walked down Grafton Street over the Liffey (Big river) to the Big part of Dublin. 

                          -9/26/2016

Pokemon Go, Bus Strike

     Wednesday was a half day. I got to leave school at 12:30 PM. I had my first real piano lesson that day. After school, my mom said that I had a piano lesson at 1:45 PM, so I went to the Piano Building and waited until 1:45 PM. He showed up, but then he told me that My lesson was suppose to be from 3-4 PM. My mom told me at 1:45 PM so I had to wait an hour until 3 PM to have my lesson. I got a Bach piece and a Chopin piece. I was annoyed because I did not really have a half day that day. I took the bus home.

        Thursday, My laptop was suppose to come today. I thought that the Busses were on strike but when I looked it up it said it was Friday and Saturday so I took the bus to school. We watched more Psycho in English, and History was fun. We wrote paragraphs in Spanish that we were going to say to the class next week. When I got home, There was a package, but it was only the Alienware Backpack that I had ordered, not the Laptop. The laptop was canceled apparently and they are trying to re do the order. I was kind of sad because I wanted my laptop because I could Record Videos.

      Before I had dinner at 6 PM on Thursday night, I went to St. Stevens Green park to go Pokemoning. I walked around the Park and there was a Valor Gym at the other side of it. I decided to take it. Once I took it, It was being fought right after I took it by a Username called: MrAndMrs. I think I knew who it was it was a guy and a girl standing under an umbrella (it was raining) looking down at a phone. I decided to hide behind a tree and wait. Right when the Gym was done, I sniped it (took the gym before they could make it Valor Again) And then they had to fight it again if they wanted it Valor. This happened about 5 more times. I put my Pokemon in before they could take the Gym then they had to fight it again. Now there was 3 all in a group fighting it and it was just funny because they never gave up.

       I took a picture of them. They were all mad because they could not find me and I kept stealing their Gym. Here is a Picture of them:

       They were all battling the Gym I kept stealing from them. I was hiding from behind a tree. It was raining also. Thats why they had rain gear and an umbrella on them. 

         Friday, I had to take the Dart because the Busses were on Strike Again. I got up at 6:50 AM and got to school at about 8:20 AM. I took the Instinct Gym by my school on the way there. In History we watched 2 Episodes of "Between 2 Ferns" With Zach Galifanacus. We watched the one with Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama. They were really funny. We had Jumpzone at 1:50 until 3:50. It was the last time we would have it. Next Friday our group had Golf. At Jumpzone, we played Dodgeball and jumped in the Foampits. We were really tired so we did not do a lot of jumping except for Dodgeball because Dodgeball is really fun. 

        I took the Dart home, and Levi had his friend Jonah over for a sleepover. We had dinner late because we did not have any hot water or Gas because a fire alarm went off yesterday in our Basement, but we had someone fix it tonight. I hope I can get my Laptop Soon.

Doing Badminton, Ordered a new Laptop!!!

      Monday, I was going to bring my Sports outfit to School because after school from 4-5 PM, I had Badminton. I brought my Sports outfit and Shoes in a separate bag. I got to school early as usual. In English, we watched more of Psycho and talked about the Shower scene and how the whole set had to be movable to get all of the Camera Angles that they needed. History we talked about Prohibition and Speakeasies (secret places to drink when alcohol was banned). At the end of the day, I went with Ian to Badminton. We were playing each-other to see if we would make the school team. Ian and me played and he beat me 18-16.

       Monday night, I decided to finally order the new laptop I have been wanting to Order. It was an Alienware 17. It is a gaming laptop made my Dell but its their own different line of Gaming Laptops. Here is a picture of the Laptop:

          Its thicker than other computers because it is a Gaming Laptop. I can still transport it. I also Ordered a backpack with it and I can transport the Laptop around in that, but I will not need to Transport my laptop anywhere unless I go back to the US for a break or in the Summer.

         Today (Tuesday) I took the Bus to school, and had a Snack Bar for breakfast. I moved Spanish classes today because of the other Irish kids that took the Junior Certification last year. They were all getting moved based on their Exam results and I got moved also. I liked my new Spanish Teacher Mrs. Ryan. At the end of the day we had 2 periods of Lectures because it was Tuesday. They told us about the Uganda trip and the 3 things to get involved in. I was glad to hear none of them were from December 24 - January 9 because that was when I was going back to the US. They also talked about "The Project of Me" which is our first Transition Year Project. You basically make a scrapbook about your life and have pictures and text and I thought I would have one section for all the places I have traveled. 

     My Project of Me Project will be interesting because I have traveled to so many places and I just moved here from the US.

      My Laptop should be here Tomorrow or Thursday. Im excited for that so I can start making Videos. Tomorrow I have a piano lesson I think at 1:45. I might get Subway tomorrow also which is Exciting!

                     -9/20/2016

JumpZone, Cliffwalk & Mountain Climbing!!

      Friday, since the Busses were on strike, I had to take the Dart in the morning. I got up early so I could Get to school on time. I walked down to Pierce Street where I got on the Dart, and I waited until the next one. The dart made it about half way, then It shut off, and there was an announcement on the Speakers of the Dart that said they needed to call an Ambulance for one of the passengers and they would have to stay at the station. We ended up waiting at that station for about half an hour. I dont know why it took that long, Ambulances are suppose to be faster, but there were a ton of kids on the Dart from St. Andrews and we were all going to be late.

     I just played Pokemon Go on the Dart for about 30 minutes even though we were not moving. After about a half an hour, we were moving again. I got off the Dart and walked to St. Andrews. I went to History, since it was my first class on Friday. I told Mrs. Galvin what happened. I had English, Spanish and Math left that day, then at 1:50 PM, I had PE, and we were going to Jump-zone again. There was one new Girl in our group named Lee. She was in my history Class. She had lived in Belgium and New Jersey before.

      In English, we watched more of the movie Psycho by Alfred Hitchcock. We were studying the Shower scene where there were 77 different camera angels in just that scene to get all of the right shots and it took a week to film. We also talked about how there was color in Hitchcocks time but he chose to make the movie Black and White to make it more effective.

         At 1:50 PM, my group went down to the Bus and it took us to Jump Zone. We did the same thing, we played Dodgeball in their Trampoline Dodgeball court and then they had a huge big Court with just a lot of Trampolines and wall trampolines to bounce on. Then we had the foam pit and basketball trampolines. We got back to school and I took the dart home.

           Saturday, Me and Levi went Pokemoning in the morning from 7-10 AM. After that, Me, Levi and my Mom were going to go Cliff Walking at the same place Me, Ben, Caleb, Max and my dad went when they visited Ireland. It was from Bray to Greystones. We decided to not go around the Mountain, but to Climb up it and get to the Cross. We saw that last time Me and my friends did the cliff walk. Here are some Images. There were really steep cliffs we had to climb but it was really fun. I got a lot of Video im going to edit when I get my new Alienware Laptop.

The Mountain we would be climbing!

         Me and Levi Climbed a lot of More mountains and we ended up walking about 4 or 5 miles to get to Greystones. It was like 3-4 hours of walking / climbing mountains. We got Amazing Pictures though. We got to Greystones and ate at a place called The Happy Pear.

The Happy Pear

      

         They had healthy food and Chili and Peta bread sandwiches with like all healthy food. After we ate there we took the Dart back home which took about 45 minutes on the Dart because it was all the way at the end of the dart to Pierce Street Station. 

       Today (Sunday) was more of a Chill day. We went Pokemoning from 8-10 AM, and then we just hung around the house for the rest of the day. I cleaned the Bathrooms and Did piano, and Tonight Were going to eat at 5 PM and just hangout. 

            -9/18/2016

New Amazon Order came in!

      Today, It was Thursday so I had to walk down to the DART because the Busses would be on strike Today and Friday so I have to take the Dart Today and Friday. I woke up at 6:45 AM and got ready and walked down to Pierce Street Station. I got on the Dart and played Pokemon Go on the way to school like normal. I got to school about a half an hour early. Today was really easy because all of the Teachers think the kids are tired because they just got their Junior Certification Results back on Wednesday, and its really important but It was just another normal day for me.

       At lunch time, Me and Chance went down and out of St. Andrews just a block to take over a Instinct Gym. (Pokemon Go now) We are both on Mystic so we took it down together. Now the 2 Gyms at St. Andrews are Mystic. (As of lunch time, probably both gone now) I took the dart home also. My Mom had some of her friends over for Dinner. The dinner was really good, and I played them a couple songs on the Piano and showed them my Juggling Skills. They were impressed with my Piano Playing Abilities.



Also, Waiting at home for me was a Package from Amazon that I had ordered earlier This week. The Package came faster than I thought it would! They still said that they have not arrived yet on Amazon.co.uk! I got my Blue Ice Microphone, my new Logitech Webcam, and my new HD Elgado 60fps. All used to Record gameplay on Xbox 360 and Xbox one!

Blue Ice Microphone!

Logitech Webcam (One of the best in the world right now)

New Elgato used to Record Xbox 360 and Xbox one gameplay!

         I just now need to order my really expensive Laptop I want to buy. Its a big investment but Im going to get an Alienware 17 Laptop to use to Edit Videos, Record Gameplay and Play games and stuff like that. Im planning to start a YouTube Channel.

           Tomorrow is Friday so I get to wear my Sports Uniform to school tomorrow since I have PE at 1:50 PM. I have JumpZone again which will be really fun!

Half-Day, New Piano Teacher? (Juggling Balls!)

      Today is Wednesday. I was happy because I had a half day. Well, at least I thought that I did. Last night, my mom said that we had to be at school at 8:15 AM, and Monday, she had said that we had to be there at 8:15 PM, but she meant AM, so I had to get up a bit earlier. We had to be there at 8:15 AM because My Mom wanted to talk to Mrs. King more about Transition Year and how to get into the Uganda Trip. We learned about the U-Live concert held by Transition Year students and the Winter Fare. They both make money for the Uganda Trip. I had all my main classes today. The people who were at St. Andrews before were getting there Junior Certification results back today. Basically Junior Certification was a lot of Exams that the students at St. Andrews took at the end of 3rd year over their 1st through 3rd year (so 7th through 9th grade for me) and it was a lot of exams over those 3 years. They get their results today at 12:30 PM.


      I got to leave at 12:30 PM because I did not have to get my results because I did not take that test. I went on the dart one stop to BlackRock and walked to McDonalds. I got a Blueberry Muffin, a Medium Fries, a 6 Piece Chicken Nugget, and a Berry Ice Smoothie thingy.

More Pics. 

          Then I had to be back at St. Andrews at 1:45 PM for a Piano lesson with mabye a new teacher. He was russian and he was telling me how to play my Chopin faster and lightly, and to get a Hyden sonata and get the Bach Inventions book. I have probably played 3 Bach Inventions already. I got home and I had a package. It turned out that It was my new Juggling Balls that I had ordered from Amazon! I did not think that they would come that fast because I had just ordered them a Couple days ago!

       I tried using them and they were way easier to use than the bouncy balls. They were smaller and had little beads in them. I dont know how to explain it, I guess that they were just built for Jugglers!

In Visual Arts on Monday, I forgot to write about this, but I had to think of 100 things to draw for the word "Travel" as I wrote last week. But I decided to go with the Rocket drawing. We made 2 sketches as what we picked, and I picked the Rocket, so we drew a few sketches for how we would be making them out of clay. Monday, we took the sketches and made them into a clay model! After we baked them in the Kiln oven (used to harden clay and make clay art) then we could paint a certain layer to make it colorful! Heres what mine looked like before it went in the Kiln!

         

            Here is a nice view from the window on the 2nd floor where the Laptop and TVs are!

New Phone! Learning to Juggle! (Past 3 Days)

       I think I will be posting now every other or 3 days because not a lot happens but each post will be more information and cool to write! First, on Sunday, we were walking down on Grafton just for fun and we stopped in at the 3 Store to check out when Oma could switch her plan later this month when her contract in the US ran out. Just for fun we looked at some phones and plans that I could get if I wanted a Phone in Ireland. There was a cool deal that we found at the 3 store where it was you buy the phone, then its 20 euro a month to have unlimited data and calls, and you have to stay with them 7 months, but after that you can use the phone with any phone service you want! We wanted that one if I was to get a phone since I would be in GR for a whole summer and I would want phone service. We looked at a couple of phones, and we saw a HTC for 160 Euro, and I decided to get it!

       It looked like a really nice phone! It ran off of Android, but I still kept my Ipod. I would mostly use it for Calling, Texting and playing Pokemon Go everyday. I tried it and it was really cool. At first it could not download apps but it worked after about an hour. I got all the apps I wanted then I tried playing Pokemon Go. It did not seem to work. I quickly went over to the 3 store and the guy helping me had the same phone and checked what his settings was on and there was like a "High Accuracy" setting for the GPS part of settings and he fixed it. Now I can play Pokemon Go everyday! And I have unlimited Data! Also I make 20 Euro a week so thats good to pay off my Bill each Month.

        Also, I have been learning how to Juggle. The most throws I have gotten now is about 30 now. I just got that about a minute ago. I took a video of me juggling on my New Phone for Instagram:

     Its hard because you always have to be looking up at the balls and you cant look when you catch them. You have to be able to catch them without looking at your hands. The Circus guy said "Its all about perfect throws." I have 3 bouncy balls that I can use as Juggling balls, but I ordered some off of Amazon in Ireland and they should be here in a week or so. 

      On Grafton Street, there is always someone performing or playing music or something. 

      

         I play Pokemon Go on the ways to School and back because I can play while riding on the bus, and it gets me far on my eggs that I need to walk either 2k, 5k or 10k to hatch. I have 2 10k eggs right now. One is at like 9k the other is at like 5.7k and riding the bus helps me hatch them. Since they are both 10k eggs they are rare so I cant wait to see what I will get out of them. I will probably hatch my closest 10k egg thats at 9k tonight when I go Pokemoning. It doesnt take long to walk 1k mabye one time around St Stevens Green. 

       School Is more fun now. The food is good and I know where everything Is now. Im going to Sign up for Badmitton, and go to Creative Writing Clubs Thursday during lunch. I tried eating Lunch at break and It felt better eating at 11:30 instead of at 1:10. I dont understand how they can eat Lunch so late in the day.

      I ordered a lot of things off of Amazon. Juggling balls, an Elgato (records xbox gameplay), a new Webcam, a new cord for the xbox 360 and I am planning to order a new Alienware laptop soon. It is one of the best gaming laptops that you can find. It will be for recording gameplay and stuff so I will order that soon. The Busses plan to be on strike again Thursday and Friday so I will have to take the dart. The dart is right next to the Water so mabye I can get some more Water Type Pokemons. And the DART, for people who dont know, is like a train that goes on the coast and transports up and down Dublin. I can take that or the Bus to school. The Bus is faster, but when I take the Dart, there is a Subway on my way from the dart station to home on the way home from school. I usually get home at 4:40 - 4:50 PM when I take the Dart which is not that much later than 4:30 PM when I get home taking the Bus. 

        One thing that I have noticed about Ireland is that the kids in school say that Its to hot when Its not really hot and Its to cold when its not that cold. I guess they are not used to very hot or cold and need it just the exact right temperature. I dont really feel that it has ever been to cold or to hot since I have moved to Dublin. Since it never snows I will probably never have to wear a coat or anything so thats cool. 

       Also, Me, and 2 other students were called in to the Transition Year office to pick 18 names at random of who would not be going on the Ski Trip to Italy in the winter. We each had to pick 6 random numbers in-between 1-88, I hope that I got in, I probably did. But if I did not, it is still not horrible, at least I would have a break where I could fly back to the US for about a week and see my Dad and go to a few concerts. Run In the Dark I also signed up for. It is at 11 PM I think on November 16, which was the date of the Selena Gomez concert that I was going to see at 3 Arena, but she canceled. Now I can do the run in the dark. I chose the 5k not the 10k. Ofcourse the first thing I thought about was Pokemon Go, and I could run with my Phone on in my Pocket and hatch a 5k egg. Thats all I think that I have done the past 3 days. 

          We are having Tacos Tonight in an hour at 6 PM, its 5:10 PM now. Comment If you like this blog more than every day blogs because there is more Information or if you just like a daily blog with not as much info. This seems like it would be more fun to read but thats just my opinion. I have to do some Spanish Homework (probably like 14 minutes) and I did most of my Piano when I got home. I will practice more Juggling and mabye I can juggle for a straight 60 seconds!

             -9/13/2016 

                            

Saturday - More Pokemon, Food Market!

     Today, I got to sleep in until about 9 AM. We were planning to go walk down to a Fresh Market inside that had Vegetables and everything like Me and Oma did last weekend but a different place today. We tried to leave at 10:30 AM. We were planning to eat there because they had a little food place inside of it. Before we went I had to get Levi to come down so we could start walking.

     The walk was not that far. While we were walking, we saw a really cool alley that had nice graffiti and a church.

 

     When we got to the market, it looked nice. There was a lot of fruits and Veggies to buy.

     After Oma and Mama went shopping for Veggies and healthy stuff, we were going to eat at the place in the back of the market. It had cool things like eggs with mushrooms and really good pancakes as me and Levi discovered. We split a pancake and had some eggs also. The Pancake came with syrup, and strawberry syrup and it also had powdered sugar ontop of it. It was probably one of the best pancakes I have had in my Life in all honesty. It was like a pancake but it was somehow kind of deep fried but still pancakeish. We sat outside at a picnic table and there was nice art on the wall. 

            On the way out of the market, I got 3 bouncy balls that I could use to Juggle. I was kind of good. I showed Oma, Levi, and Mama. They were impressed. We went to one more shop and got some meat.

        We did not get the Pig foot but we did get some Steaks. We had those for dinner. We got home then Me and Levi went over to the park. We played with a frisbee type thing, and I practiced Juggling more. I got like 12 throws in a row juggling. Its fun! Then, After dinner, Me and Levi went Pokemon Go hunting again. I evolved a Horsea, and I also Evolved a Kraby! It was a fun day!

       -9/10/2016    (Also Ariana Grande just released her dates for her Dangerous Women tour so I want to go to the US to see one of her shows)

Thursday + Friday (Busses go on Strike!)

     Thursday, I went to get up, got my Uniform on and walked to the Bus stop as usual. When I got there, the Bus sign that usually displayed the Information on When the next busses were coming said that the Busses were not running due to some error or something. I was confused so I walked back to the House to tell my Mom what was happening. My mom looked it up, and it said that the Busses were on Strike. That was surprising. That never would have happened in GR, but now I had to find another way to school.

      My mom called me an Uber for me to take to school. I got to school at about 8:15 AM. I had to find a way to get home. I would figure that out later in the day. Today, in Math we did more equations and Friday we would be doing Graphs. I had a website and coding class. We learned to make our first HTML website. I ended up calling my mom at the end of the day and taking the DART home. The dart is a good way of transportation. I got home at about 4:45 PM instead of 4:30 PM which is not that bad.

     Friday, I had to take the Dart to School in the morning. I went a lot earlier because I did not know when I would get to school taking the DART. I got there just on time. Friday, after lunch, we had PE/ Outward Bound. I had PE, and we were taking the Bus to JumpZone. Chance was in my group along with 6 other people. We were getting to go to JumpZone which is where there is a lot of Trampolines on the floors and walls and you can play Dodgeball and bounce around. It was fun. The bus took us back to St. Andrews then I took the Dart back Home. It was rainy, and I got subway on the way back to my house. From the DART station that I walk from to my house, there is a Subway on the way and I got subway. I had that for dinner and everyone else had pizza.

       At about 8 PM, I went Pokemon Go Hunting for about an hour. I walked about 3 KM in the end. I walked all the way down to a river and back and almost caught a Squritle.

     

Half Day (Wednesday)

        Today was Wednesday. I had my first Half Day. I got to get out at 1:10 PM. I had Spanish, English, Math, and History. In English, we got Laptops and did a draft of typing a letter to the person who we were planning on going to do Work Experience With. I had to put down some of my personal skills like using the Computer, and how I worked on a Lobster Boat, and I can type fast also. It was cool. Math we just did more math and History learning more about the Henry Ford and General Motors making cars and the 6 and 4 cylinder engine. I got to leave school at 1:10 PM.

      I got on the Bus, and I was able to sit on the 2nd floor, in the very front which is my favorite place to sit.

       I got home at about 2, then I did an hour of piano because I would be starting Lessons soon again since I havent played in like 4 months. I took the summer off because I had so much stuff to do like trips and things like that and working in Maine. I will start playing again though. At about 4:30 PM, My Mom, Me and Levi went to Trinity College and we got some great pokemonz. My Mom knew that it was a good place for pokemon. On the way back, I got Subway. Oma Made Dinner and It was very good! I had the footlong Sub at about 8 PM after my shower. I had 2 dinners tonight.

Tuesday(Onion Microscope)

      Today is Tuesday. I got up at 7:10 AM. I was feeling sick yesterday, but I was feeling better today. I got up got my clothes on and walked straight to the bus. I listened to music as I walked to School and Registration. My first class was 2 Periods of Biology so 80 Minutes. We learned about cells, and we got an Onion sample and we dropped 2 drops of Iodine on it. Then, we put a glass cover over the Slide of glass that had the onion on it so we could look through a Microscope to see it. This is what a Slide, and Cover are:

         So we put the Onion sample on the Slide (Big Rectangle Glass) then dropped 2 drops of Iodine on it then put the small glass Covering on-top of the Slide. It looked cool. We also had samples of things from Humans like Muscle, Liver, an etc that we could look at through a Micropscope. 

     Then I had History, we talked more about Henry Ford and his Son and the Model T and new Model A. Then I had Math, then a Break. I had a snackbar. Its weird at St. Andrews because they eat lunch at 1:10 PM, but in City we ate at like 12 or 11:30 AM. I had CAD, the computer class after break for 2 periods. Then after Lunch for 40 minutes (which is more than City lunch) I had Spanish. We learned some phrases for the first page of our project that is due September 16. Last, since It is tuesday today, we had 2 periods of Lectures at the end of today. They did not have anyone to lecture, so we got out at 3:25 instead of 3:50 which was cool.

       I took the bus home, and when I got to my stop, I looked across the Street, and saw a huge crowd of people waiting for the bus across the street from me It was crazy!

        We had Tacos for dinner. After Dinner, Me and levi went out to play Pokemon Go. We played for about One hour and a Half. We went to St. Stephens Green, I got to level 11. We got some new Pokemons I have never had before. Levi had to be home by 8 so I took him home.

       Yesterday, I got a Package from Papa. It was my SremmLife2 Package. It had a Shirt, the CD, and the autographed Booklet.

      Tomorrow, I have a Half day, so we will see how that Goes. When School actually gets harder I might not get to post every day, so I might post only mabye twice or once a week but that will be enough because school Isnt that fun. It will get more cool when I go on more trips and stuff.
