Basketball Practice

Yesterday I had basketball practice. I did impressingly well for having an injured leg. I ran as fast as I could, and the coach said he would like me to run that fast in the game. We did a lot of scrimmaging and I took a couple long shots. The coach said that he was impressed and that he was going to have me take in the ball and try to make a 3 pointer. ( I thought in my head, well dah, I can do that) So I will keep you updated to let you know how that goes.

Basketball Game


On Saturday I had my basketball game. I scored 2 baskets and got 4 rebounds! My mom said that for every basket I make, and every rebound I get she would pay me 50 cents. So that means that I would get 3 dollars. I am very proud of myself, I usually suck and don't make any baskets, but on Saturday I made 2! Also I had to play with an injured leg. (you can read about that on the other post)

Injured Leg


On Friday I injured my leg at school. At first I just thought it was just a scrape. But that day after school it started to swell, and there were a lot of bruises around it. So I rapped it in the Bandage and then put some ice on it and it still started to swell. Then Saturday morning I looked at it, and it had scabbed over, and it was still swollen. Then Saturday night I put some more ice on it and it was still swollen. So my mom said that if it is still swollen by Sunday or Monday she is going to take me to the doctor.


I injured it at school because somebody tripped me. (it doesn't seem that hurtful, but it was)

Science Fair


At my school we had a science fair. My topic was: Does Storage Temperature Affect Popcorn Popping. It was an interesting topic, and I learned a lot of information about it. After expirementing I found out that you would want to store your kernels in a room Temperature area. I found out that if you store kernels in the freezer then when you pop them, they will be small and they might burn! But if you store them in a room temperature area then they will be fluffy and big. (if you try this out and that is not what happend it is not my fault)

Valentines Day!


Today is Valentines Day! My mom always gives us some gifts on valentines Day. One of the gifts she gave me was a hot chocolate mug that you could write on with chalk. It is "sweet". She also gave me some candy. My brother came yesterday to celebrate his 16th birthday! So he stayed here today too. Also today I had my basketball game. "IT SUCKED"!!!!! I didn't make one basket. And we lost by 2 points. If I would have made a baket than it would have been tied, then we would have to go into overtime, then we could of won! But that didn't happen. Well, HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!
