Venice

Well, in the past week I haven't posted a lot, because I forgot to, and because we were in VENICE!

Well, in Venice they have a different kind of ice cream called gellato, and they sort of make it different - it's like, more bitter or more sweet - one of those. They make Pizza and pasta in Venice. A really old guy went to China and brought back noodles to make pasta and they put cheese on it and all kinds of sauce on it and now they have pasta all around the world! First they had noodles and then pasta. Yum yum yum!

I got to go on a Gondola with Debbie and Shyam. They are really good people. We filmed on the gondola ride - I like to call it a gondaloo ride. I liked it when I thought we were gonna tip over because we were so close to the water and the wall! Debbie and mommy and Daddy and Shyam said "its all right, we won't tip over!" and I was only a little scared.

I think we had six gellatos. The best flavors were cookie, chocolate and vanilla

In Venice they have a different language that I got to learn like this: grazie.

After we got home from Venice after school and just before dinner I lost my tooth. The tooth fairy still hasn't come and I tried for two nights!

<---This picture looks like I have butt-wings!

I got to feed pigeons and my brother was really really bad at it. At the end he just dropped the whole pack. It was weird.

Day after tomorrow I am going to Paris. I want to see the Eiffel Tower and the Mona Lisa that Leonardo Da Vinci painted.

Leeeeeonaaardoooo Da Vinciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!

Six Weird Things About Me

I got tagged by my mom so here I go:

1. My eyes can be different colors at the same time. Sometimes they can be green and sometimes one can be green and the other can be blue... and gray, blue and gray, gray and green...

2. I have a lot of nicknames: monkey, turkey, gigi, ginger snap, birdy, and g-liz.

3. I have four ugly toes. Cause I have chilblaines. Chilblaines are - oh I don't know. You can find out in Google.

4. I like almost ALL foods. I hate raw broccoli and olives. I love those little hoops that are made out of squid.

5. I look just like my father but not my mother. Except for me and my mother have blue eyes. My dad and I have the same chin, hair, nose and I don't have a beard.

6. Sometimes gymnastics makes me fart.*

Tag: Daddy!

School Project

This week including next week, well, SOME of next week I have a project for my homework. Instead of writing work, I'm doing a project about me with my history, my future, my favorites - like scrapbooking sort of. I have to write it in my own handwriting and put pictures on it and I get to use some of my mom's scrapbooking stuff!

In other news, my favorite colors are yellow, red, blue, pink, purple, yellow, turquoise, green, violet, indigo, aqua, beige, black, gold, silver, and white. I DO NOT like dark dark dark dark purple or gray or brown. I do not like light green, light brown, dark brown, or dark beige. It's weird. To me light green is the worst color in the world because it tries to be yellow.

Im looking forward to going to Venice and Paris and the USA soon! USA oooo ooo oooo USAAAAAAAAAYAY! In Venice I want to see the Carnival. In Paris I want to see the Eiffel Tower of Pisa. In the US I want to see new baby boys Markus and Mason!

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooodbye!

At school this week I changed something. I moved art from Monday alllllll the way over to Wednesday. So now on Wednesday I have art, PE, and Computers! Thats all I get to do so it's the funnest day of the week!

So this is really weird; my teacher teaches art and PE, but not computers. In California they used three different teachers for that and my mom taught art. I like going to different teachers back in the USA. I'm really sad because I cant go back to Los Angeles yet.

I have lots of classmates. There is a girl that I DO NOT LIKE AT ALL. She is Miss Fancypants. She just bothers me. She bothers me on the playground and in class and in line. Everywhere I go she bothers me, she bothers me, she bo bo bothers me e e. I tell the teacher but it doesn't work. I asked to move seats once. The teacher said maybe. And then finally we moved seats...

right across from her AGAIN! Hmmmm. I did not invite her to my birthday pahhtaaaaay...
and my birthday's sooooooo ooooooon. It's next week! BYE!

Food Blog: Introduction

When I grow up I want to be a food taster - a food judge maybe. A food judge tastes food and judges if it good or bad or tasty or sweet or bitter and then you go on to the next food. After you eat, you write down what you think. I am going to make a food blog here on my website.

These are some foods that I really like:
  • Macaroni and Cheese
  • Potatoes
  • Grapes
  • Apples
  • Carrots
  • Fish
  • Indian Food
  • Chinese Food
  • Chicken
  • Burritos
  • Nachos
  • Baked Beans
  • Burgers
  • Pork
  • Artichokes
  • Broccoli
  • Asparagus
  • Celery
  • Salad
  • Peas
  • Corn
  • Rice
  • Bread
  • Butter
  • Cheese
  • Bagels
  • Toast
  • Ice Cream
  • Turkey
  • Pizza
  • and
  • Candy
For my first judging, I have had a turkey sandwich almost every day for lunch. I like turkey sandwiches because they are very creamy in the middle and then when you get turkey in there it gets a little meatier and once you like it you will get used to it.
