Not Much But Still Fun

I finished reading The Science Of James Bond. It is one of the best books I have read.

I also did quite bit of cooking today. I made Potato and Leek soup as well as biscuits with lemon icing. :D

Intelligence & Stamina

For most of the day, I've been reading a very interesting book called "The Science of James Bond". It goes into many different sciences including, physics, chemistry, forensics, ballistics and avionics just to name a few. The book looks at different gadgets used in the James Bond series and uses science principles to prove whether these gadgets are fiction or could actually be fact. It also includes historical backgrounds to gadgets and plots from the movie. Very fascinating.

I played boxing on Wii Sports and decided to get right into it. I threw punches like I meant it to hurt the person. I actually worked up a sweat! After I did that for a while, I played the training boxing and baseball games.

After dinner, Dad, Stephen and I went to my aunty's house to use her pool. It was nice to swim after a hot day.

Lauren just called me. I'm going over her house for a party on Saturday. Should be good!

Reading, Viewing, Gaming

Most of my day was spent reading the CSI book Double Dealer. I have so many books to read before the 11th it's crazy. I got a bit behind during Christmas and New Years...

I watched Father of the Bride: Part II. It isn't a good as the first one, but it was watchable.

I played a game of multiplayer Sonic and The Secret Rings on the Wii with Stephen. We turned the difficulty of the bots to hard and we got pwned...

Heat Wave

For the last year, I have been looking for the CSI: Miami books. Today when I went to the library, I found some. I originally went to go find Mermaids by Patty Dann (the book based on the movie Mermaids) but they didn't have it. I ended up getting out a CSI: and CSI:Miami book and a book that Mum wanted to get out. I signed up to get a library card as well.

After that, my family and I did some general shopping, including getting some digital photos put in.

I went home and I made some Potato and Leek soup, which I haven't made in such a long time, but with a different recipe. I had to blend it when it was cooked. I put it all in, put my hand over the cover and turned it on. The cover then came off and a little flew out. Mum then told me not to push on the lid because I am putting pressure on the motor. I told her we have to hold the cover. Mum turned it on and the cover flew off and soup went everywhere! It went all over Mum's clothes, the bench and the floor. Luckily for me, none got on me, but unfortunate for Mum, she burnt herself on the hot soup.

I started reading the CSI: Miami book called Heat Wave. The book is set before Speedle dies. The characters act exactly the same, way like on the show with Eric and Speedle joking around and Horatio acting like he usual does (the whole hands on hips, I'm in control gig) . What is strange though is that it is set when it is raining. It hardly ever rains on the show...

Signing off.

Just Another Day

Didn't do much today.

I woke up and watched some episodes of The Nanny on YouTube.

I read some more of Dateline, reading all of the dates on January and the starting of February which took me three hours to read. I read the book outside on a blanket on the lawn with my head in the shade and my legs in the sun. I was really nice.

Signing off.
