My Audi A6

An Audi A6 is hopefully going to be my first car. About 2 weeks ago my mom said your birthday is coming up in about a month and a half what kind of a present do you want. I told her theirs only 1 thing I want and that is a car and she told me well what kind and how much? I had already picked out the car I want online and it is at a BMW moterworks dealership in Minnetonka. The car I had picked out was a black Audi A6 4.2 Quattro for $8,160. With it comes tinted windows new tires and a great sound system. At first I was wondering why it was so low priced when it was such a nice car. Well it had 100,000 miles on it but it didn’t matter because it had just got repairs on it so it wouldn’t have a lot of repairs when I got it. My mom then said well we will see...so for my birthday hopefully I can get that car because I really want it and I will be really happy if I get it cause then if anyone wanted to race me they would just look at my car and say well im going to lose so never mind and I would never have to race anyone cause I would be unstoppable. I also looked in to getting NOS(from fast and the furious), but it turns out it is illegal so ill just get big subs in the car as well or just get a couple more cylinders so I can go fast...

Thoughts on the Odyssey #2

My thoughts on the Odyssey have not changed since the last time I posted but I have to admit it was a pretty good ending when Odysseus comes back and slaughters all the suitors and him and Penelope reunite. I hate the how the book leads up to all that. It was kind off a short but alright ending. For how it was leading up to it should have been The Dark Knight material...It did not even come close. But that’s alright because I am a very picky book reader and I don not like a lot of books if you have noticed Mrs. B. I liked how we watched the movie class though. That helped me a lot when it comes to the study guides, quizzes, and the test hopefully. Also I like the movie because the book was sometimes confusing to me with the way they talked it but that’s alright because we and the movie. I am Very excited for next unit though when we get to watch Brother Where art though. It should be a fun unit and we don not have to read a book which is always a plus in my book. It will be fun I am sure.

Thoughts on the Odyssey

My thoughts on the odyssey right now are that it is a very good book. I really like it. It is my kind of read because it is a lot of fighting and gore. It also explains our life today just in is everyday life. I do admit I would probably like the lliad more because from what I hear it is a lot more fighting and I love those kinds of books. But this book is just fine because I love how adventurous it is and how it moves very quickly. Also I love the names of the people in it. You never see people today walking down the street saying "o look there’s Telemachus son of Odysseus". No you just don’t see it. But a lot of what they did back then transferred over to how we do things in life today. For instance the houses, cities, islands, and countries. They also built there own ships just like we do today and they believe in a ruler just like we do. They believed in things to trade instead today we have money for that. But as of right now I am really enjoying the book and I love the suspense in it and it is kind off like a book written today just in the language they had back then.

Outside Reading 2

Last weekend I finished my outside reading book (The Ghost War). In the end I did not like the book as much as I wanted to but not bad. It was a very predicting book. You always knew what was going to happen next. They author tried to make it suspenseful but it really was not at all. As far as adventurous goes it was pretty good because it toke place all over the world. The main plot of the book I thought was very good but the way he told it, it kind of sucked. It is more of and adult book than a teenager book for sure. I would recommend it to people older than 30 years old because at times it was hard to follow as well. But I suppose it is my fault for choosing the book even though my dad recommended it to me. But I understand why he wanted me to read it. Because he is a lot smarter than me and understands things more than I do. Overall I would rate the book about 4 out of 10 for me. It was also pretty long so it was pretty painful to read at times. I would recommend it to you though Ms. B

Detroit @ Vikings

Last weekend on Sunday the Minnesota Vikings Played the Detroit Lions at the Metrodome. I was watching it at my house and doing my homework. It was a very good game but the Vikings were supposed to kill them and Detroit made a game out of it. Detroit w as leading for the whole game but in the 4th quarter the Vikings decided to start trying and they came back and won with a last second field goal by Ryan Longwell to raise the Vikings over the Lions 12-10. It all started out with the Vikings getting a safety then the lions coming back and scoring on a touchdown by Calvin Johnson to make it 7-2. Then the Lions scored a field goal to make it 10-2. Then with 5 minutes left in the game AP (Adrian Peterson) scored a TD to make it 10-9 and then the Lions ended punting and with 5 seconds left the Vikings pulled off a 52-yard field goal to make it 12-10 and lift them to 3-3 and make the Lions 0-5. So that was my Sunday experience watching 1 of many good games that day. Until next blogger I am out. Boo yaaa

Homecoming

This weekend was homecoming. The game was a lot of fun and I was glad that we won in the final minute of the game. But the real fun was the dance. My date for homecoming was Gabbie Brown. We had a lot of fun together. Other people in my group consisted of Joe Stafford Cole Briggs Kyle Engler John and David Erdall Nate Carlson Chris Klobacar Brendan Canova and Nick Wiedner and there dates. We started out with pictures which were at the Briggs and it was kind of boring. Then we got in are 20 foot white Escalade limo and trucked around for 2 hours. Went around the lakes and pumped the tunes. Then we all went to Maggionos which was Delicious and I was completely stuffed after it. Then came the dance and other than it was around 200 degrees in the dance area it was really fun. I saw a lot of people that I knew. Then we went to the after party at the Stafford's house and that was fun. Just kind of a chill time there. Just sat around the bonfire and hung out. So that was my Homecoming and it was a lot of fun and I cant wait for next year.
