Today I finally got my Z-List status on Lockerz. In case you don't know, LOCKERZ is an website where you can participate in polls and other stuff to get points. You can then redeem the points for free stuff like televisions, iPods, headphones and other cool stuff. I'm at 70 something points and if I can get 130 more, I can get some really awesome headphones. Since I have Z-List status I can get there even faster.

Dinner Party
Date: January 30th, 2010
Today, my parents had a dinner party with a few of their friends which meant I could play video games all night. Unfortunately, I also had to take care of my brother before I could actually start playing my video games. At first my brother was ok, but when it was time to actually go to bed he got really annoying and refused to go upstairs to go to sleep, which meant more video game time being eaten up.

Gymnastics
Date: January 29th, 2010
Today in gym I almost had to do my gymnastics routine. I was really scared because I never actually memorized my routine and I just finished it today. I didn't know that we were going to have to present it today so I didn't bring my routine plan home to practice. I was lucky that my gym teacher cut me a break and didn't make me present. Unfortunately, the gymnastics moves in my routine are really hard and my whole body is sore.

Skit
Date: January 28th, 2010
Today in social studies we were assigned to do a skit. We are working in groups of five and we are going to present on Friday. We were actually supposed to present today but too many of us weren't ready because he only gave us 20 minutes to prepare. My group is Zoe, Natalie, Gavin, Jamie and I. Our skit is set in a classroom and it's about two teachers teaching the kids about the famous people in Islam. I hope it's going to be good.

iPad
Date: January 27th, 2010
Today, Apple came out with their new piece of technology, the iPad. I've been waiting a long time for this tablet to come out because I really wanted to see what it was all about. It looks really cool with it's 10 inch screen. In fact, it looks just like a really really big iPhone. I don't really want to get one other than for reading books on it because I think that I would find it too big and bulky.

Jailbreak
Date: January 26th,2010
Today I finally managed to jailbreak my iPod. I've been trying to do it with blackra1n, this program I found that does jailbreaking. Today I found the secret to doing it. I had problems with doing it before but know I actually did it. Now I can customize the screen layout because the original one is really ugly and I don't like it. I really like the new themes that you can get on it.

Gymnastics
Date: January 25th, 2010
Today in gym I finally did some of the gymnastic moves that I didn't use to be able to do. I was able to do a round off, a bridge from standing, a scissor jump and some other stuff. I was really happy because now I have tested on enough stuff to be able to start to create my routine. I don't really want to do the routine because I have a feeling that I'm going to seize up and forget the moves I planned to do and end up failing.

Provincial tournament
Date: January 24th, 2010
Today, I had my provincial karate tournament. I qualified for it in December and I was really excited about it. The tournament was at BCIT, which is a location that I go to often for karate tournaments. This time I only qualified for form and not fighting because i didn't want to do it, and my toe was messed up at the time. I won gold in my form, defeating the Pan-American champion for my age group. The next step for me is preparing for the BC Winter Games in Terrace.

Growth
Date: January 23rd, 2010
Today, my dad showed me this clip on youtube. He's called Chris Martenson and he talks about how all the problems our Earth is facing is due to population growth. I found it really interesting. I like the part when he talks about exponential growth. He talks about how if you were at Fenway park and there was a drop of water dropping onto the pitcher's mound once every minute, and every minute the number of drops multiply. How long would it take for the park to fill up? It would take 49 minutes and you would only notice the water growing at the 44 minute mark. It's the same with population growth, every year the number of people multiplies and it's draining our resources. If you want to take a look here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/user/ChrisMartensondotcom#p/u/39/XnXZzx9pAmQ

New phone
Date: January 22nd, 2010
Today I got my new phone. Since my old phone got broken when I went snowboarding, I had to either repair it or get a new one. Since repairing the phone would be really expensive, I decided to get a less expensive phone. My new phone isn't as nice as my old one but I'm still really happy just to have a phone. It's a flip phone which is nice because now I won't have to worry about the screen getting damaged like my old one.

Early dismissal
Date: January 21st, 2010
Today was early dismissal because of the parent teacher conferences. I was happy because then I can go home and do nothing for an extra hour. I went to my grandparent's house afterschool instead of tomorrow because my mom is going to the parent teacher conferences. I also learned that my french tutoring class is going to have another person, one of Zoe's friends from Brittania. I'm sure it will be even more fun now.

Today..
Date: January 20th, 2010
Today I didn't do anything that was special. All I did was go to japanese school and then go to karate and do homework. Today was really boring and I can't wait for the pro-d day on Friday when I'm going to play Modern Warfare 2 all day with Ronald.

Science experiment
Date: January 19th, 2010
Today, I went to Eric's house to do a science experiment. Our group was me, Eric and Edward. Mrs.Smedley said to find out what the density of the human body is. It took a really long time to do. We had to fill up a bathtub with 100L and then I had to go in to see how much water I displaced. It turns out that my volume is 28L. Then we had to calculate to find out the density. We found that the density is a little over 1 g/cm3.

Debit card
Date: January 18th, 2010
Today, my debit card finally came in the mail. I applied for it a week ago and now it's finally here. It looks really cool. It's all shiny and it has my name on it nad everything. I got it from RBC which is where my mom used to work and where she banks now. I've been asking for a debit for a long time and now I finally got it. I wanted one because I wanted to be able to carry around a lot of money without my parents being worried I was going to get mugged.

Sound system
Date: January 17th, 2010
Today, my dad and I set up a sound system for our living room television. We hooked it up to the playstation we have so that when we play modern warfare 2 it'll be really crazy. It took a long time though. We couldn't figure out how to make the sound come out of all the speakers. We finally had to reset the tv settings to allow for audio speakers and do the same for the ps3. It took a long time but it was totally worth it. When we watch movies the sound is amazing.

X-Men
Date: January 16th, 2010
Today, I watched X-Men Origins. I didn't really remember the plot so it was like watching the whole movie again for the first time. The storyline is really good. The main character Wolverine is really good in his part. There is a special mutant team which specializes in killing people. And at the end, there is this super bad guy who has a ton of powers. He was supposed to be a military weapon but Wolverine and his brother end up killing him.

Movies
Date: January 15th, 2010
Today my parents got two blu-ray movies. One of them was X-Men Origins. I saw that movie in theaters and I really liked it. I also got Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. My whole family likes the Harry Potter Series. We have all the books and the movies so far. Tomorrow we are going to watch one of them and on Sunday the other. The discs also came with two digital copies so I can put them on my iPod.

Finished a scarf
Date: January 14th, 2010
Today I finished my first scarf. It took a while but I finally finished one. I'm going to keep this one because it's my first one and know I can say I can actually knit ( kinda ). It's a plain blue one with a plain garter stitch. It's not that magnificent but I think it's awesome. It feels good knowing I'm doing something good for someone in need. I would like to know whether I'm knitting for kids the same age as me or like young kids. Do you know?

Remember the name
Date: January 13th, 2010
Today I got addicted to this awesome song called: "Remember the Name" by this underground hip hop group called Fort Minor. The song has been featured in a lot of action movies like the new Karate Kid movie. I've heard the song before but I never knew what it was called. I've been listening to it all day. I find it really inspirational especially the chorus. My parents don't like the song but they don't like anything that's new music or anything of genuine greatness.

NEW SHOES
Date: January 12th, 2010
Today I got some new shoes. I like shoes a lot but my parents don't like me getting a lot of pair of shoes so when I do I get really excited. I got new shoes from NIKE at Oakridge because they were having a big sale and I got them at half price. They're black and have fuzzy stuff at the top of the heel. They are high-tops which are my first pair. I got my friend Jonathan Frydman to help me pick them out because he was at Oakridge too.

My phone is still busted... :(
Date: January 11th, 2009
Today, I woke up to go look at my phone to see if it was fixed after I tried drying it out. It's still really messed up even after I let it dry. I looked up to see what was wrong with my phone and apparently, it has a bleeding screen. That means that the LCD screen is cracked on the inside and all the liquids are flowing out of it. The liquid isn't flowing out of the phone it just kind of looks like that. I'm going to have to go to the solo mobile store tomorrow to see what I can do.

Snowboarding
Date: January 10th, 2010
Today I went snowboarding with my friends. We went to Grouse Mountain. We all snowboard so we could all stock together. We wen down all of the blue runs and on one of them I totally bailed and it was a really steep run. I was rolling down really fast and I couldn't stop and I was really freaking out. I finally stopped when I hit a snowbank and flipped up. I had a ton of fun with my friends today and I can't wait to go boarding again.

Hockey game LIVE
Date: January 9th, 2010
Today I went to the Canucks vs. Flames game. It was really exciting and I was really pumped. I was cheering for Calgary because they are my favorite team and they're the best. I knew that the Flames would have won and of course, they did. Whenever the Flames scored I stood up in my seat and cheered, while everybody around me looked at me like I had a fatal sickness, which being a Flames fan in Vancouver, might as well be one.

Karate tournament
Date: January 8th, 2010
Today, I had a karate tournament in Stevston. It was an invitational tournament so there were American kids competing there too. There were a lot of really good competitors there so I had a tough time. I almost won gold but there was a rule that if the other competitor scored a score higher than you, even if you tie, he still wins. I was kinda upset about that but I didn't let it get to me. Then, I fought an American kid and he beat me really bad.

Diet
Date: January 7th, 2010
Today I learned a horrible thing. I have to be on a diet. I don't really have to be but I choose to go on a diet because of my karate. I want to stay in the lightweight division for fighting so I don't have to fight kids twice my size. I have a big tournament coming up and I'm over the weight limit so I need to start losing weight. I'm not really worried because I'm only 0.7 kg over the limit and the tournament is 2 months away so I have lots of time.

I suck at knitting
Date: January 6th, 2010
Today I realized something. I suck at knitting. I have gotten a couple lessons from my mom about knitting a couple of days ago so I thought I would have actually not have screwed up so much, but of course I did. I'm ok at casting off but when it gets to the first row I always mess up and since you can't fix the first row I'm stuck. Well like you said: "you're not learning to ride a bike if you're not falling off".

Canada lost
Date: January 5th, 2010
Today one of the saddest things in the history of sports happened. The Canadian Juniors lost in the finals. Never in my lifetime has this happened. I was so upset when I first heard it that I yelled out in anger. They would have won if the goalie hadn't totally sucked. He let in a ton of goals and got pulled. I guess he was under pressure and he choked or something. The USA goalie didn't do that well either so I have no idea why we didn't win. I guess there is always next year...

Knitting
Date: January 4th, 2010
Today, I learned that I was supposed to knit scarves for homeless children. I think that it's a great idea and I was excited to do it. My mom is really into knitting so I figured I could get some tips from her. She also has a ton of patterns that I can do. I've tried doing knitting before and I didn't like it. Since I'm doing it for others who are less fortunate I make more of an effort to like it.

Deluxe Blog 2
Date: December 29th-31st 2009 - January 1-3 2010
Well here is another Deluxe Blog. This blog is for Tuesday to Sunday. On Tuesday I didn't really do anything. As usual I went to my grandparent's house for dinner. On Wednesday, I played Modern Warfare a ton. I was having a ton of fun playing online matches with my friends and other people. I also played some missions with my dad. He likes the game a lot too, almost as much as me. On Thursday, I went over to my dad's friend's house for a New Years Eve party. My dad's friend always cooks a really good dinner. This time we had sushi, curry and chicken. Then at midnight, we all watched the Dick Clark New Years Special and we watched all the performances by people like the Black Eyed Peas, Jennifer Lopez and Chris Daughtry. On Friday, I went to my relative's house for New Years Dinner. I played video games and played cards and stuff like that. On Saturday, I was going to go Richmond Center with some other Synergy kids but I couldn't go because I was going to dinner with my parent's friends so I wouldn't have enough time to go see the movie. When went to their house I played more video games. Today, I went to my friend's house and enjoyed the last day of my freedom until reality comes and slaps me in the face. We played video games and went to the park and played with a frisbee and played some cards. This was a fun winter break!
