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.*

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.

The Blarney Castle!

Hi! I went to Blarney Castle yesterday. Blarney Castle is in Cork and Cork is a really wonderful place to live, stay or visit. You have to wake up so early and take this huge train that goes super-duper-duper-duper fast. Because Cork is a long way from Dublin, yes indeedy!

The main reason I went to Blarney Castle was I got to kiss the Blarney Stone! The Blarney stone is just a big rock, but its not just a rock, its also a stone! And the whole castle is made of stones. You would want to kiss it because it would give you good luck - it gives you the gift of Blarney too - blarney is like bologna. I didn't really kiss the stone, when no one was looking I blew a kiss to it. It was weird that my Mom kissed it, because it was upside down.

I took lots of pictures at Blarney Castle. There was The Witches Kitchen, a big big fireplace made of rock. Its not in the castle, its on the grounds. I saw this chair, that was made out of a tree stump and a block of wood and its all glued together like this:

The Wishing Steps are around the castle and you go through this little passageway - its cool! You make a wish while you walk up these steps and my brother wished he was rich. I wished for a pony. I did not get a pony. and Calvin did not get rich so the Wishing Steps aren't real - when you make a wish, it doesn't come true.

I ate really good food at this pub, not bar, pub. Pubs are places where you can drink beer and have some food. I did not drink beer, I am too young. My daddy drank beer, my mommy drank beer, and Jacob drank beer and Grandpa drank beer, and that was it. But lots of people drank beer! They drank Guinness.

The train was super fast because we really wanted to get there but it took two whole hours. I ate a croissant, and played poker and I taught Jacob and Rachael how to play garbage. And I made up a new game thats called spinahat.

It was a good day but I never want to go back while its raining.

Singing "Away in a Manger"

Tonight I have this big singing thing and I have to sing "Away in a Manger". "Away in a Manger" has three verses. I like the last part and it goes like this:

And fit us for heaven,
to live with you there.

I'm really scared because everybody is going to watch. It's going to be at the church and first class through sixth class are going to be there. And my mom and dad and Calvin. I think its going to go really well. I think everybody is going to sing very, very good. I think in a few hours we're going to go to the church.

I'll report back after the concert...

...and we're back.

The concert went very good. It only took an hour. Everybody was really nice and there was so many people there. We had to go through a big crowd to go home. After the concert, there was this play that I didn't know about and it had singing in it and it was really pretty.

The end.
