5/20/16

  Yesterday, we didn't eatch movie because we won't supposed to watch movie or TV on Thursday. But, as I have already mentioned, I got to play games on my computer. For the evening, I continued to read Clash, the third book kf the series Arinthian Line. I don't remembered what was in thearts that I read that day, but I do remembered what I read today so I would told you about that later. 

  This morning, I walked 3 miles, and the time was shorter than yesterday. The time this time was 44 minutes and 21 seconds. For, like, 4 straight days, I walked 3 miles with the time under 46 minutes. That was actually some feat. After I've finished jogging, my shirt was very wet with sweats. I couldn't see how much sweats were on my back, but on the front, it was wet like never before. Just like I was just exposed to the rain. In history, I learned stills learn about World War I. Mr. Smith said that the German's zeppelin (blimp like aircraft) were filled with hudrogen gas, making them a floating bomb. They had to fly so high up to avoid the antiaircraft guns, but that make the crew to develop frostbites along with making the diesel engines froze. So, as you can say, if you are a crew on a zeppelin, you were to either burn to death, or freeze to death. In mathematics, I learned about the formula to find the trapezoid's area. The formula are H(B1+B2) / 2. 

  The part in the book Clash that I read today was this. Augum Stone signed up to the Anitoc Classic, a warlock tournament, while was searching for books about how to control the Agonex, a bronze plate that allows them to controls Oculus' undead army that were armed with Dreadnought armors and weapons, in the Anitoc Library. He had fight with 3 out of 4 contestants that he need to defeat in order to get closed to the Divining Rod, the rod made by a witch named Magua to tracked the scions, and stole it. The next and last contestant that he need to defeat was Robin Scarson, Augum's nemesis. 

  Today, I went to see my sister's kindergarten performance. We just arrived home, and my dad and I gonna watched the 2008 Indiana Jones movie. This movie was the lastest Indiana Jones movie, at peast until 2019 where Harrison Ford will be starring as Indiana Jones again. But it was nearly 10:00 pm here. I wonder if we had enough time to watch it. But at least tomorrow was Saturday, so I don't have to wake up early. 

  It was either that my memories were messed up, or that I actually remember that we're gonna go somewhere tomorrow. But I'm not so sure about that now. But there's one thing for sure. I'm gonna finished Clash tomorrow.

  Yesterday, my dad and I watched Indiana Jones and the Last Crusades. Indy once again race against the Nazis to get an ancient artifact. The artifact this time was the Holy Grail, the cup which was supposed to be the cup that Christ used in the last supper and the cup that hold his blood while he was on the cross. First, the Nazis kidnapped Indy's father for his father had researched on this matter for years. He keep all of what he have found out in a notebook whcih he had send to Indy. At the end of the movie, it was revealed that Indy's real name was Henry Jones Jr. which I think he doesn't like it so he took the name Indiana Jones. It was also revealed that the name Indiana was the name of his dog. 

  Today, I learned about World War I, one of my favorite thing to learn in history. At the battle in Ypres, German lost over 500,000 men to gain just few miles of land. As for the French, they also lost about that much. In math, I learned about how to find the area of a triangle. The formula to find the area was A=.5BH. Other than that, there's no any other things special except that there's no lesson in Bible, allowing me to have more time to do stuffs. 

  Today, my dad went out to do something that he need to do. And when he came back, he brought back sox more guppies. He was really into fish. Well, at least I have translated one more article today. For the next 365 days from this passed Monday, I had to translated 100 articles. So far, I had translated three. Now it's was 3/100. Yep, 97 more to go. The due date was May 16th, 2017. Know, I have to repeat those every blog entry just so that I could find the statuses easier. Anyway, after I've translated the article about 5 ways to strengthen your will power, I played AtWar on my computer. I just realized that by capitalizing the A and the W in the word AtWar, the word looks somewhat cooler. I stills haven't watched the two, possibly three, new episodes of Steven Universe yet; and I still haven't have any idea when I will watch it. But the idea pf watching it on the next Wednesday, when I've already watched all the Indiana Jones movie, just recently come up right after I said I have no idea when I could watch the new episodes. 

  Tomorrow, my mom gonna cook the meat and I would prepare the other ingredients and put them together to make homemade hamburgers for breakfast. And in the evening, we will go and see my sister performance. The performance was part of her kindegarten program. I also used to do performances. One time that I remembered until now that when I got two role. It happened like this. I was taught the line of a role, but I just simply can't remember the lines. Ironically, I remembered the line of another role, so I was assigned to that role. When I already learned and memorized my new role lines, I suddenly remembered my old role lones. Thus, I got two roles to play.

  Yesterday, I watched Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.  This movie was loke this. After Indiana Jones, played by Harrison Ford, failed to get the diamond from Lao Che, a rich Chinese guy, in exchange for the ashes of a Chinese emperor, get away on a plane that was "accidentally" Lao Che's plane. The pilots of the plane flew it to the Himalayas then jumped off the plane with parachutes on their back. The plane crashed after Indy, Shorty, and Chinese boy, and Wille, a singer, jumped of the plane on a small boat. They meet and India elder who led them to his village and told them about their lost sacred stone that was supposed to protect them from the evil spirits. And the children also went missing. The elder said the evil started from Pankot Palace, so Indy and his friends, along with some other Indian guides who would later run of before the got to Pankot Palace, started of to Pankot Palace. They finally found out that the people there wanted all five of the sacred stones. They already had two with the one they stoled from the village. The other two stones were under the palace, and they used the children that they have kidnapped to dig and find the last two stones. After some discoveries, fighting, and near death moments, Indy was able to retrieve all three stones of which two were throw into the river while fighting the boss of the people in Pankot Palace and returned the sacred stone along with the children to the village. My dad made yet another feat for not falling asleep while watching the movie. Later, I also found out that there's already two episodes in season two of Steven Universe already. I was still considering that should I watch those two episodes or watch the next Indiana Jones movie. But now, the decision of watching the next Indiana Jones movie was "overwhelming" the other choice. I now have decided to "go with the flow", which means that I will watch the next Indiana Jones movie, if you don't know what I meant by what I said earlier. 

  Today, I only have one exam, and it was Bible content exam, which was as easy as a piece of cake. But I stills have one question unable to answered. The question was "who's son did Jesus healed by just saying so". I left it blank for now. 

  Today, my dad also bought 14 more guppies, in which one died shortly after being purchased. That fishes wasn't a guppy. My dad bought it for my sister because she likes it. Anyway, tonight we're gonna watch the next Indiana Jones movie. I think the next movie was released on 1989 or something.

  Yesterday, my dad said we're gonna watch the next episode of the Indiana Jones franchise. But after the family meeting, my dad realized that it wasn't the day for us to watch movie as we had planned. As for the family meeting, I was the one who had to present the story. I deciced to present the article that I just translated earlier that day. The article that I translated earlier that day was about how to not mind what people think about you. But I didn't talked fluently, so the speech was a bit of confusion. And I also started on reading the third book of the Arinthian Line series. I stills enjoyed then even though this is the second time I read this book. 

  Today, I had ton to tests. History, language, literature, science, and Bible, all of them had a test. Most of those tests are Nine Week Exam. The Bible exam was a verse exam. I did quite good at the first and last test, but the second one wasn't so good. It actually only consists of two long verses, but I shorten then greatly. I think it was an interesting coincidence that I related about the Bible exam first, and I also work on the Bible exam test first. In math, which we don't have any test or exam today, we learned about the area measures and area of rectangle and square. 

  Now, I shall tell you about the Arinthian Line series, or as written in old English, I shalt tell thou about ye Arinthian Line series. Augum Stone, the main protagonist of the series, was at the town called Willowbrook when the Legion, and army that came to power in Solia, attacked the town. He was training with Sir Westwood. Unfortunately, Sir Westwood were killed while Augum ran away. Later, he met Anna Atticus Stone, a legendary warlock and, as augum would later found out, his great grandmother. Mrs. Stone taught him arcane along with Bridget Burns and Leera Jones, who parents died when the Legion attacked the town of warlocks, Sparrow Perch. Lord of Legion, Lividius Stone, was Augum's father. Lividius intended to get all of the scions to open the portal to Ley, where there's people who were immortal and hold ancient arcane secrets. Augum's great grandfather was a Leyan. 

  Tonight, my dad and I gonna watch the next movie in the Indiana Jones franchise. My dad also bought a bunch of small sishes for us. We used to have fishes until they all died of some disease.

  It has been few days from the last time I updated my blog. I forgot to make a blog entry from May 6th to May 7th and from May 13th to May 15th. In between of those times, I was at Nha Trang, a city near the beach in southern Vietnam. The temperature there at noon and morning was hot. Even scorching, as some might say, not literally, of course. On the first day we reached Nha Trang, I got to play iPad a lot. I played Asphalt 8, Dungeon Hunter, Plants vs Zombies, and Blitz Brigade. We usually woke up late about 9:00am. And it costs me a trip to Vinpearlland. Vinpearlland was an island near Nha Trang. There's only two ways to entered it. Either through a skyline trampoline, or a boat. But if some were rich enough, they might took planes, but I doubted that there's a place to land a helicopter, and jets were impossible to land there since there's no runway. Instead of going to Vinpearlland, my family went to a beach called Doc Let. I don't usually like swimming in the ocean, but I admitted that it was quite good. But that's wasn't the event that I like the most. What I like the most was that my dad bought be the fourth book of the Arinthian Line series. The book was named Clash. I finished the book after I've arrived home shortly. 

  Last Friday, I started to study as usual. But after I've finished with my schoolday, my dad bought the first two books of the Arinthian Line series. My dad, because he didn't checked what was the order of the series of the book that he bought, bought the third book of the series. He bought the first two books of the series, and I just have to pay 100,000 vnd because the first book was completely free. And I have already finished both of them. Now, I'm gonna read the third book again, then moved on to the fourth. And I may even read one more round. 

  On Saturday and Sunday, my family for a memorial feast for our ancestor. That was where I finished the first book of the Arinthian Line series. I might told you more about the series on someday. It's funny how I kept writing series to seires. It feels less bored because I have two books to ready. The first book was about 360 pages long. And the second book was nearly 700 pages long. 

  Yesterday, my dad and I watched Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark. My dad downloaded all four of the movies of the franchise. I suddenly wished to watch all of them again when I told him about the upcoming Indiana Jones 5, coming in 2019 with Harrison Ford as Indiana Jones. But this movie was about Indiana "Indy" Jones on the race to find the Ark of the Covenants before the Nazis under Hitler got the Ark. A congratulation should have been given to my dad for staying awoke through the whole movie, which was some feat.

  Yesterday, I watched Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl. I "suspected" that this is the first movie of Pirates of the Caribbean series. In the first event in the movie was when Elizabeth Swann first find Will Turner while on a England's ship with her dad, the governor of an island in the Caribbean. She find out that Will was a pirate after she have seen his medallion. Years later, we first see Jack Sparrow as he was sailing to Royal's port in a small sinking boat with a sail. Thr boat sunk right when he reached the dock. He was eventually taking to prison, then escaped with the help of Will Turner who thought that Jack would helped him find Elizabeth whom was kidnapped by the pirate on the Black Pearl. The current captain of the Black Pearl was Barbossa. He started a riot and overthrown Jack Sparrow who was then the capitain. They had taken the treasure that Cortez has from the Aztecs. The treasures were cursed. Whoever take even one coin from the chest was cursed that foods turned to ash in their mouth, wine have no taste, and they couldn't die. The only way to stopped the curse in to returned the coins to the chest with blood of the one who took it out. And bla bla bla and bla bla bla Jack Sparrow defeated Barbossa and take back the Black Pearl. I didn't feel like writing all of the movie out. And at this speed, it would take as long as my usual blog entry for the description of the story only. 

  I also found out that I didn't tuned my guitar strings correctly. I just tuned them back yesterday, and they sounds better. Imperial March sounds cool on it. 

  Today, I made a new Bionicle MOC. His basic construction, or skeleton, was similar to one MOC that I've made. But somehow, he was bigger than the one I've made. This one has different colors, had only two hands, and one weapon instead of four like the last one. He was pretty big and I'm quite proud of it. After all, I have to take five others MOCs to make it. 

   Next week's Sunday, we gonna go to Nha Trang. I can't wait to go to Nha Trang. It's one of my favorite cities in Vietnam. Too bad that we were only there for five days.

  Last Saturday, I was allowed to play on my computer. I played the game atWar. AtWar was a game like the cardboard game Risk. I forgot every other things that happened on Saturday. Oh, except that my dad and I went to the supermarket to buy stuffs to make hamburgers when we went my to grandparents' house on Sunday. 

  On Sunday, I went to my grandparents' house on the bus with my cousin. Because my cousin went with me, I had someone to talk to. And it was quite fun. We talked about a lot of things, but one of the things we talked about that I remembered we about songs. We talked about songs that one of us know and the other don't. After we arrived there and have lunch, I found out that my mom forgot to bring the bread with her. As the result, we have to use the mayonnaise for her spaghetti. I played atWar on the iPad that we brought with us. Even though the wifi wasn't very good and I usually be disconnected, I could stills play it. For dinner that day, we have chicken and my mom's spaghetti. Her spaghetti sauce contains of meats, tomatoes, mayonnaise, and ketchup, or tomato sauce, as some might called it so. It was delicious. That night, my dad downloaded Plants vs Zombies on iPad for my sister since the TV was unable to watched, and she had "nothing" to do. 

  On Monday, not much happened that I remembered. One of the thing that I'm most proud of happened on Monday. I myself mixed mayonnaise, ketchup, and tomato sauce for me and my cousin. And both of us think that it has enough mayonnaise and ketchup mixed together. I played iPad for few hours before lunch. After we arrived home, I watched a movie called Meet the Parents. It talkes about and guy name Greg and his trip to his girlfriend's parents' house. Things was quite messed up. And near the end of the movie, it was revealed that Greg's real name was Gaylord. 

  On Tuesday, we stills have a day off. I also played atWar. My when I was playing and had conquered most of Asia, my mom told me to go out and buy some milk for my sister. When I returned home, I was disconnected from the game because I was AFK(Away From Keyboard) too long. So that means that I lost 30 minutes worth of playing. Oh, and my dad started to learn about marketing from early in the morning untill 6:00 pm. 

  Today, I started to learn as usual. My dad, when he went to school, took with him the iPhone that I used to timed my walking speed so I have to walk without the phone. I also reached the 13th percent of the autobiography of Thomas Jefferson.
