Camping in WestHampton

Today is Friday. A week before I had a party were my parents had made arrangements with everybody about camping. Now I was waiting for the guests to come. Once they did my dad asked all about the directions. Since there wasn't enough space in my car, I got to sit in my Siraj,  friend's, car. We listened to Percy Jackson (sound recording) all the way there. This is where it was: http //koa.com/where/ma/21137/facilities/.http://koa.com/where/ma/21137/facilities/. When we got there my other friend, Sanjit, came with his DS to Siraj's car. We all got our DSes and connected it to his. Next my friends and I set up our tent and played more DS in there after taking a walk. Next we ate dinner, smores, and told ghost stories. When my friends and I got in our tent which we made for ourselves. We played more DS. Then we went to sleep. Suddenly in middle of the night Siraj woke up and said he was scared of the ghost stories. My dad was walking around and heard him so he took him to his parents tent. Next morning we ate breakfast and went to the playground. A little later we went to the pool with my friend. Next we took showers and then watched Harry Potter 6 from a laptop. Next we played DS and basketball . After that we went to a lake climbed rocks, and then pizza at a restaurant, came back played more DS and went to bed. Next morning I found out that Sanjit already left. I used the computer but it was too slow so I put it away, ate breakfast and searched for coins that can get you candy.
After that we packed and went to the lake again and climbed rocks. For some reason I'm always the experiment. I'm saying that because I had to be the person who had to climb up really steep rocks. Next we went to a mall eat, shopped there, and then went to another restaurant ate there and went home. THE END

Last Week

My most memorable day a week ago was the day at the beach with my family. The temperature was in the High 80s.The sun was shining brightly in the sky. When we first got there my mom had to go to the bathroom. That's is why I got to go into the water before everyone else did, while my dad waited. Once my mom came my parents set up the carpet. A little later I came back from the water and went to the carpet. Then my mom told me to look for my dad.Immediately I saw him and signaled him to come back. Once he came I set off for the water again. While I was diving waves I got some friends who seemed familiar. Next we found sand dollars and dug a big big hole in the sand. After that we cleaned up and left the beach.Since it was a long way back home we stopped dinner. But even then it was a long way to get to a civilized town which didn't sell just sea food.Once we got to a place we quickly ordered  food. After that we ate and we went back to the car. Half way we listened to music and half way we shared stories from Shakespeare. When I got home I played games from lego.com, and watched Harry Potter 6. PS I chose this day to write about because there was good whether and Plus who doesn't have fun on the beach.

The Profency Part Three

"What's after lunch Rex?" asked James." Art, Phis Edd, Double- "Stop making life worse" said James. "Due to poor weather circumstances school will close in 30 minutes and will be like that for the rest of the week "announced the speaker. Everybody rushed to there lockers got the important stuff out and raced to waiting buses or  went to their car to drive home. James, Maggie, and I got into the car and started to drive home but James just turned the car around at our street." Were are we going?" I asked . "You'll see when we get there" said James and Maggie handed me a flashlight and told me to put it away in my pocket. I'd did so but didn't understand why. "Look time is short, you are a son of the wind gods in Greek. We are taking you to a camp to train for combat and things that sort" said Maggie. "James, this taking too long can we shadow travel?" asked Maggie. "Sure"replied James. All around us turned black and then we were at a camp with a rectangle of cabins. "This is camp half blood mate"." I really am a son of hades and she is daughter of Zeus. Here we train to fight monsters. Do you still have that flashlight, if so click it, " said James. I clicked it and it grew into a sword made with bronze."Wow". "Plus you have brothers and sisters in your cabin. Its that one, you should go check it out". Once I entered the cabin I didn't wonder how they build it because the inside was clearly out cool stuff. My brothers and sisters were all looking at me like they knew me for ages. " Hey little bro I'll guild through the camp" said one of my brothers. He showed me the capture the flag area, arena, and other things."He even taught me how to to use my powers and wind gale. Tomorrow morning we had a game of capture the flag. I was the a little nervous because people could actually die but my brother told me that as long as I stayed close to him I'll be all right. Which reassured me. Once a horn blew the teams clashed together fighting like mad but the whole wind cabin flew over them making the wind push them through the skies. Some people noticed and shot arrows but everybody in the air dodged the arrows. Soon we located the flag swopped down reicved it got it back to our side and won the game.

The Profency Part Two

After I went to English class we had a lunch break. Maggie, James, and I weren't exactly popular so we were used to getting bullied alot. The bullies made us sit were they could spit food at us. Plus they made a newspaper looking like this at us: HELLO TO ALL THE NERDS IN THE SCHOOL. You guys should really get more wedgies from us. You know we are really kind not to stab you with a knife. And other sorts of junk insults with snide comments. But the good part is all the teachers are on our side and the help us by locating and destroying original copies so they couldn't copy them. They also have a secret club which they practice bulling. After lunch I go to the museum to learn about samurais. Here is the homework I handed in:amurai, (侍?) is the term for the military nobility of pre-industrial Japan. According to translator William Scott Wilson: "In Chinese, the character 侍 was originally a verb meaning to wait upon or accompany a person in the upper ranks of society, and this is also true of the original term in Japanese, saburau. In both countries the terms were nominalized to mean "those who serve in close attendance to the nobility," the pronunciation in Japanese changing to saburai." According to Wilson, an early reference to the word "samurai" appears in the Kokin Wakashū (905–914), the first imperial anthology of poems, completed in the first part of the ninth century.By the end of the 12th century, samurai became almost entirely synonymous with bushi (武士), and the word was closely associated with the middle and upper echelons of the warrior class. The samurai followed a set of rules that came to be known as Bushidō. While they numbered less than 10% of Japan's population[1] samurai teachings can still be found today in both everyday life and in martial arts such as Kendō, meaning the way of the sword.Following the Battle of Hakusukinoe against Tang China and Silla in 663 AD that led to Japanese retreat, Japan underwent widespread reform. One of the most important was that of the Taika Reform, issued by Prince Naka no Ōe (Emperor Tenji) in 646 AD. This edict allowed the Japanese aristocracy to adopt the Tang Dynasty political structure, bureaucracy, culture, religion, and philosophy.[2] As part of the Taihō Code, of 702 AD, and the later Yōrō Code,[3] the population was required to report regularly for census, which was used as a precursor for national conscription. With an understanding of how the population was distributed, Emperor Mommu introduced the law whereby 1 in 3–4 adult males were drafted into the national military. These soldiers were required to supply their own weapons, and in return were exempted from duties and taxes.[2] This was one of the first attempts by the Imperial government to form an organized army modeled after the Chinese system. It was called gundan-sei (軍団制) by later historians and is believed to have been short-lived.[citation needed]

The Profency Part One

Intro: Hi I'm Rex an ordinary teenage guy who is really good at fencing, archery , and other outdoor activities like climbing trees. I lived most of my life outside of USA until now. I now go to high school with my friends Maggie and James and live with my uncle and cousin James. I also work in the museum in our school.

Chapter 1

English class has always been difficult for me because I traveled all over the world learning almost all the languges everywhere I went. Today we were supposed to hand in a report on the movie Avatar The Last Airbender. Here is the report I handed in :The movie was fair. Big sigh. Where do I start? Well let's start at the sticking point that everyone has had with this movie. In case you missed it, a lot of noise has been made because Noah Ringer (Aang), Nicola Petlz (Katara) and Jackson Rathbone (Sokka) are White actors cast in the roles of Inuit and Asian characters. While I didn't like the fact that they white washed 3 of the main characters it was not that much of a distraction, especially once they left the Southern Water Nation. The biggest problem with these actors is that they sucked. I found the mispronunciation of Aang, Sokka and Iroh (mispronounced as Ong, Sukka and Earro respectively) unbelievably distracting, especially as the whispers in the theater acknowledged the mispronunciation several times. This was the equivalent of calling Bruce Wayne Brice Wong. In addition, his version of the material left no time for character building. Without character building how do we understand why they care for each other or get to the point where we care about the characters?The amazing martial arts (Tai Chi, Northern Shaolin, Hung Gar and Ba Gua Zhang) that the element bending of each nation is based on was weak and rare. Shyamalan decided that the firebenders actually needed fire to be present for them to fire bend then changed his mind in the end. Aang's airbending left much to be desired. Katara didn't really need to learn waterbending, but still wasn't good at it. And while they did include Zuko as the Blue Spirit, the amazing firebending that he did in the series was left wanting (they did show him sparing and Dev Patel was good). Not to mention the imprisoned earthbenders that made no attempt to escape despite being surrounded by earth instead of metal. It also would have been nice to see more of Damon Gupton (Master Gyatso) but there wasn't time for that either. 'The Last Airbender' definitely has an extremely diverse cast but once again the 3 White main characters spoiled. I got an A on it but I'm not sure how?

Some Physics Facts.

Physics is a science of measurement. Standard units of measurements are needed so that every body is using the same method. Mass, length, time and temperature are the basic units. The metric system is the SI system. In SI length is metres, mass is kilograms, time is seconds and temperature is kelvin. Length is the distance between two points. Mass is the amount contained in a body. A gap between two events is time. Degree of hot or cold is temperature. Estimates are not reliable. That's why measurments are needed.

Magic

In time before time lived a great sorcerer called Pan. He fairly ruled his kingdom of Del. His people said that he had a perfect personality. The people were even thinking to make him a palace of gold as a gift. But he kindly refused and said that they should use that energy to help people in need. Though everybody in his kingdom liked his company the neighboring kingdoms had other plans to over through Pan. So they held a meeting to destroy Pan. At the meeting.............K1-We don't have enough forces to attack Del directly. We must destroy it by convincing that Pan is wicked sorcerer who cursed us into complete darkness for 20 years just for not walking with him. Then we will have to tell them that he has a wicked past that leads him to many miseries. K3-Yes we do that but what about him he can just vaporize people in an instant. K2- We can poison him. K4-But he can heal himself or remove the poison and we won't even know. K4-Lets build him a mansion with death traps he goes in and gets himself killed. And so the kings still can't find a way to destroy Del's perfectness even today.

As an ant I would see the world as a labyrinth. I'm saying that because wherever I go, there always is someone there to kill me. Here is my dying schedule: Monday, go to New York. Today I got a car ride to NY city where I almost died. Here is how it went. First a guy picked me up  put me in his hot dog and would have ate me if I hadn't  hopped on to his mustache jumped of waited in the car that brought me here until they drove me home. Tuesday, back at home. Now that I'm back at home I do chores every day which are extremly dangerous. What I have to do is lead a bunch of ants into a ant trap not get caught and survive home.     Wednesday, welcome to Hawaii. I got stuck on a boat went to Hawaii get attacked by mutans and come back on starfish. Trip to soccer city. A crazy sicentist shipped me of to soccer city to be examaned . Just then a rat freed me, took me on his back and ran for the exits. Though alarms went off we escaped from the lab. We kept running but humans were catching up. They were coming from all direction and surrounding us. We hid in a hole but the people smoked us out. they caught the rat on the other side but I escaped. There was a lake nearby so the animals in the water took me home.
