Well, this is unfortunately once again the last post during this summer. Over two weeks ago, I went to see a movie called the Giver with my friend Etienne. We saw it because we both read the book, and we thought it would be fun to go see. We also played at the arcade while we were there. During that same day, I went to sleepover at another one of my friends called Nicolas' house. Since it was raining during nearly the whole time I was there, we stayed inside the whole time. Several days later, I went to my school orientation, where I got to know which class I'm in, and I also got to put all of my school things in my new locker. Two days later, I went to Calypso with yet again Etienne, Emily, my cousin Alexandra, her little brother Tristan, my dad and aunt Jennifer. We did a lot of fun rides including the Kongo, the Boomerango, the racing slide and an obstacle course. Afterwards, he came over to our house to play for a few hours, and after that he came to see a movie near a church called Heaven is for Real. A little while after, I went over to my aunt Jennifer's house with a lot of the cousins for a campfire. We basically played soccer, and just talked around the campfire. It was a nice and peaceful night. On the day before school started, I went our to play tennis with my mom. Even if I got destroyed in both games we played, it was still a lot of fun. Afterwards, we went to eat at Swiss Chalet. I ended up having chicken wings, ad I usually like to take when we're there. We also shared a brownie with ice cream on top. It was definitely very delicious! After that, I went to pre-order a new game for my DS called Super Smash Brothers. We also did some back to school shopping while we were out. I would like to thank everyone who read these posts, it means a lot to me. I had a great summer just like I always do. I'll see all of you next year!!

The meteor shower

Over a week ago, I went to Calypso with my family. We did lots of cool rides including the Congo, the lazy river, the racing slide and much more! The next day, I went to my aunt Jennifer's to shovel sand for her sandbox. We also went swimming and played a bit inside. The shoveling was a lot of work, but we managed to shovel all of the sand into the sandbox. Two days later, I went to the Navan Fair. There were so many fun rides over there, so I will only talk about a few. There was a maze with glass all around you, and we had to find our way to the other side of the maze. This was hard to do because it was difficult to tell the difference between an open path and a glass wall blocking our way. There was also a ride that went very quickly in circles, also bringing you upside-down a little bit. And finally, there was a ride where you also spin in circles, but without going upside-down. We also saw a demolition derby while we were there, and it was fun to watch. The next day, we had the meteor shower sleepover with all of the cousins. We did lots of things like play baseball, soccer, sat around the campfire, doing some really weird things with glowsticks, like drawing pictures and making cool effects with them. Me and my cousin Ben also did a couple of Magic the Gathering drafts. We also played some video games. Later that week, I basically relaxed since I was tired after doing all of those fun things.

Going to Miguel's cottage

Almost a week ago I went to Katie, Alex and Emma's birthday party. We played on the trampoline, did some basic birthday party things like a birthday cake and presents. Several days later, I went to my friend Miguel's cottage for four days. We played croquet, went on a boat ride, played washer, horseshoe toss, various card games, various video games, and much more. I had an amazing time. During the next couple days, I mostly relaxed. On Friday, I went mini-putting with my mom and Emily. I ended up coming in 2nd place. Afterwards, we had lunch at Subway and dessert at Dairy Queen. It was delicious! During that evening I basically relaxed.

Lots of Fun!

A few days ago, my sister and I went to Skyzone, an indoor trampoline playground. There are fun things like dodgeball, basketball, a foam pit, and just regular trampolines. Emily and I mostly went on the regular trampolines, but we did a bit of each. Afterwards, we went to see horses at the RCMP stables. The next day, I invited my friend Benoit to go to calypso. We did lots of rides with my family, and just the two of us. After that, I went to his trailer for a sleepover. During those two days, we went swimming, went for bike rides, played at a nearby park, watched some movies, played a bit of baseball, played a wide variety of card games, and we also ate s'mores. We both had lots of fun. That's all for this entry.

Visiting a bunch of friends

During this week, I pretty much went to multiple friends' houses. About five days ago, I went to my friend Benoit's house. We went swimming, played on his trampoline, just played outside in general, went for a walk, played on his Playstation and computer, and that's pretty much it. We played games like Minecraft, LittleBigPlanet, and Borderlands. The following day, I went to my friend Nicolas' house. We watched a movie about war where 4 people tried to survive against hundreds of opponents. They ended up just barely surviving with one of the four people staying alive. (I forget the name of the movie) We also played some video games. It was raining during nearly the whole time I was there, so we stayed inside the whole time. Right after that, I went to my grandma's house to play with my cousins. We biked, played soccer, and played some old Playstation 1 games. After that, I went to Bradley and Shane's house, where we went on the trampoline, played video games, and that's pretty much it for the day. Since I slept over there, the next day we played more video games, more trampoline, we went swimming and our grandma's house again, and did some other things outside. We then returned back to their house and watched a movie called Bad Grandpa. It's pretty much about, well, a bad grandpa. He does some really weird things, and is a terrible influence on his grandson. Since I slept over a second time in a row, we basically did the same things the next day except we went mini-putting with my dad and Emily. I ended up coming 2nd place, only losing to my dad. They then came over to my house for a bit until they got picked up by our grandma again. I then relaxed for quite a bit the next day since I was tired after going over to all these friends' houses.

Babysitting Tristan

Two days ago, I helped my dad set up the hardwood flooring in my room. I also helped cut the wood pieces to make them fit. That was honestly all I really did that day. The next day, I babysat my cousin Tristan. We played NHL 12, a "sea monster" game as he calls it, freeze tag, basketball, just a normal "monster" game, and much more. In the monster games, someone is a monster and someone else tries to not let the monster get to him. We both  had fun. Later that day, I was tired so I did some relaxing things like watching YouTube videos.

Going to the beach

Yesterday, I went to the beach with my cousin Alexia and aunt Yulia. We went on the swings next to the beach, played in the water and in the sand, and I had some water races with Emily. After that, we went to an Ikea store to get ideas for our new rooms. The next day, we pretty much just relaxed.

The baseball tournament

On Friday, I had my first baseball game from the tournament. We ended up winning by quite a bit. During the same day, I went to Alexandra and Tristan's house to swim for a few hours. We also played Just Dance, and did other activities outside. The next day, I had two more baseball games. The first one was much closer than the first game, we won 20-12. Even if it wasn't extremely close, I still had fun. After that, we had a break, so I had Subway, and had my friend Nicolas over for a bit. After that, me and him had our second game of the day, and we whopped the other team around 16-0. On the next day were the grand finals. It was a very close match, and we ended up winning 1st place by only 4 points. After that, our team had a pool party at Nicolas' house. We played basketball, swam, went on bikes, and even had cake! It was a fun night. Today, I went to Calypso with my friend Miguel even if it was pretty cold. We nearly did all of the rides. It was cold, but fun.

Painting Emily's room

Two days ago, I had a baseball game, in which I was first basemen the whole game. I helped with 3 double plays, and got 4 people out. In the end we won by quite a bit. The next day, I helped my sister get her room prepared for painting. I removed the carpet, some nails, and some other things that I can't quite remember. Afterwards, she painted her room in purple. That's it for these two days.

Canada Day!

This year, on Canada day, I didn't volunteer. Instead, I went to Vars for a bit and afterwards went to my Grandma's house for the rest of the day. I went swimming, and after that we ate supper and I got to play with my little cousins Lily and Alexia. I had a fun time. The following day, my family and I went to Calypso a bit, since we have our passes and we really like to take advantage of them. After that, we went to Dairy Queen and I had a chocolate Blizzard, which is what I usually take. We then dropped my mom off at her physio-therapy. While she was there, we went to Home Depot to get the painting things so that we can paint my sister and I's rooms. Afterwards, we picked my mom up once again, and we relaxed for the rest of the day.

Emily's birthday party

On Sunday, my sister had her birthday party for her tenth birthday. All of the younger kids threw massive amounts of water balloons at me. (Which was actually very fun.) Me and my twin cousins tried making a fire, and we were somewhat successful at doing so. Afterwards, we had some chocolate cheesecake, and it was the best cake I've had in a long time. (Not that I've had much cake recently anyways.) After that, my sister opened her presents, and got lots of clothes, a cake pop machine, a grip bag, and even an outing with Alexandra at Skyzone. The following day, I went to my cousin Tristan's house to go swimming. We had lots of fun. After that, we had ice cream and some more of that chocolate cheesecake. Me and him watched a Monsters vs. Aliens short which was about haunted pumpkins attempting to invade the world. After that, I went back home and pretty much relaxed for the rest of the day.


Thank you for reading.

Calypso Once Again!

We went back to Calypso on Friday because the English schools were still in school, so we knew it wasn't going to be too busy. Luckily, it wasn't. I pretty much did the same rides as last time, maybe even more since there were less people. It was a lot of fun. I don't really have anything to talk about for Wednesday and Saturday.

A short but pleasant day

Today I had an orthodontist appointment. My orthodontist said that I could possibly get braces sooner than later. They took multiple pictures of my teeth, which was  pretty much all that happened. Afterwards, my friend Miguel came over for about the whole day. We played video games, basketball, nerf guns, capture the flag, etc. It was very fun. That pretty much wraps up today.

Calypso!!

Two days ago, some of my family members and I went to Calypso for almost the whole day. We tried various rides together and by ourselves. It was a lot of fun. The following day, I went to my friend Etienne's house for the day. We did lots of things like swim, play video games, play outside and much more. I honestly didn't do much more that day, so that will conclude this blog entry.

I'm back!

Well, schools over, so it's time to start blogging! As you all probably know, this year I started Junior High. I must say that it was a great experience; I made new friends, had some fun teachers, and I pretty much just loved the overall school year. It was definitely a big change from last year, since this school was a LOT bigger, with a much more organized schedule. I loved this year more than any of my elementary years by far.
At the new school, I joined lots of fun clubs and extra curricular stuff, like an "activity club" where we just do all sorts of different things each time, I joined the school band, did two math competitions, a spelling test (dictée), and I also tried out for the basketball and badminton teams. Our school band toured multiple primary schools, and we even had a concert at our own school. We were very good in each of those concerts. Our band also had a school end trip to La Ronde. I had lots of fun trying multiple cool rides, being with some of my new friends and best of all, missing school. For my actual school end trip, all of the 7th and 8th graders went to Calypso. I did at least half of the rides over there, including the newer ones. After school was all done for the year, I pretty much relaxed for the first few days, since the trip to Calypso came with some free sunburns. On Sunday, me and my dad's side of the family went to eat at Johnny Canucks, and afterwards, we went to my grandpa's memorial, like we usually do every year. That's all to pretty much talk about for this entry.

The blogger,

Kyle ;)
