Vienna Vacation

Guten Tag! Vienna is only a couple days away! I am super excited to spend a week exploring outside of the U.S and seeing so many interesting sights. I can barely contain myself to try new foods and study fascinating museums.

 I just wanted to take this time to thank a few people:
  • Nana and Papa (for getting this whole trip planned and organized and being expert packers).
  • Mom (for saying "yes" to going on the trip and helping me pack).
  • Dad and Noah (for their support in this idea).
  • The rest of the people (who helped encourage and kept me excited for the trip).
So, a big thanks to those kind and who can forget helpful people.

To keep Nana and Papa updated, I am almost packed. All I need to do is get new packing bags and then put my stuff inside. Before you know it: I'll be all packing and ready for Vienna. 
Well, Vienna is coming upon us and we better be ready!

THANKS!

This beautiful building I believe is called the Schonbrunn Palace

Woody Words

The aftermath of Calwood in a 3 word summary would be: Tired and exciting.
 Let me start off by saying that it wasn't as fun as I thought... no pillow fights and staying up until midnight... (lights out was 9:30 anyway). But, it still was pretty exciting and a valuable and great amount of time.
 When we got up there, there was something called the bench circle. We all sat around it while the instructor explained all the guidelines and expectations. Once the instructor was finished, he read off our cabins and cabin mates. I was with: Maddie, Varshini, Elizabeth, Gabbie (some of my friends); and of course myself.
 During the day, we would get served breakfast, lunch and, dinner.
 Then we would go out for our "Learning Groups" (Which were not the same as our cabin groups). During that time, we would hike, one day my group and I went on a 7 hour hike... that was long and beginning to get painful considering our counselor didn't let us stop unless it was a water break or lunchtime.
 Then after a long day, we would have something called "B.O.B Time". Which meant "Body on Bunk" or as my counselor called it, "Butt on Bunk". After B.O.B Time, we would have dinner and then lights out.
 Last but not least, "Tick Talk". When you are up in the mountains, you can get little bugs that will latch on to you usually in the woods, and will suck your blood. I fortunately only had 1 tick.
 Overall, Calwood was a very enjoyable experience and if I had the opportunity to do it again, I would.


Beautiful!

Calling Calwood

I'm going to Calwood tomorrow! In case you didn't know, Calwood is a environmental learning center were anyone can find out about nature and animals.
  I will be staying two nights and three days. I'm stoked!
 I am also obsessed with animals that whenever I see a dog, I follow it until it runs away from me... (and then I chase after it). Anyway, there will be some excellent wildlife and nature there and those are in my "Favorite Things" list.
 Anyway, I hope Calwood is as fun as it seems hanging out with friends, nature and, good food! (All of my favorite things). 
 In case you didn't know, Calwood is in Jamestown. (My lectures are quite boring eh)?
  I think while I'm there, I'm going to do this:


  
So fun am I right?!

Summer Song

Happy May 1st everyone! Summer is just around the corner...
 Anyway, I was at the Talent show on Friday night and witnessed something so beautiful I was like this:



A girl at my school who is an excellent piano player by the way, played a song that opened my heart and just made my jaw drop. (That's why you always bring an oxygen tank to the talent show).

Take a listen:


~ This song seriously is dabomb.com bruh! :) (me embracing how 5th graders talk).

Stay Summer

Oh, how summer is taunting us. "Just 6 more weeks..." it says. Then, once it is summer, it goes by so quickly and before you know it, it's August.
 But, the time we do have during summer, I want to live it up! Have parties, play around, and most of all, have fun! Summer is great time off, and most people don't take advantage of it. I however, do. I view it as a time for catching up on academics, sports, and fun.
 I have made a full list of things I want to do this summer. Here it is (still to be revised):

  1. Work my tail off on math.
  2. Read, read, read.
  3. Write stories and books.
  4. Re-do my whole entire room.
  5. Get active.
  6. Stay up late.
  7. Have as much fun as possible.
I hope this summer is warm, fun, and time filling! Also, a time to hang out with friends, family and most of all, have fun!


  
I wish my summers were as warm and fun as this!

Suprising Springsteen

Oh man, yesterday night. "Baby we are born to run!" When we finally found our seats I was bouncing off the walls. Suddenly, the lights dimmed and people started cheering and chanting "Bruuuce!" I joined in and was ready to be transformed. Several minutes later, the lights dimmed again and came on again. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street band hopped on stage. I went wild. Then, he shouted out, "Denverrr, I'm so glad to be in the Mile High city tonight!" I went crazy once again. Yes Dad, you were right. He played "Meet Me in the City" first. Springsteen's still got that awesome voice and upbeat movement. Later, the song I was waiting for started. "I got a wife and kids in Baltimore Jack, I went out for a ride and I never went back..." I sang along to every song and cheered like a maniac. The concert went on a while but, we left a bit early. I am so glad that I went and yes, it did change my life.

Dream Daze

Yesterday night I had a very interesting dream. So interesting that I still had it in my head today. Playing over and over again just like a movie. It might of been as annoying and overplayed such as this:
My dream if my mind would let me get to it was that I was sitting in a room with so many overly happy people that they started to get more creepy by the second. These dreams annoy me because sometimes I wake up in a sweaty panic hoping this isn't reality. Luckily, it isn't. I do love dreams that distract me from the worst experiences though. I have learned to be happy over the years. Which has helped, a lot.
