Blog Assignment #7
Rock paper scissors. I don't know what I would do without it. Three quick rounds can save a lot of arguing. This little game helps me make some pretty important decisions in life. Things like who gets shot gun, the last pizza slice and pick the music in the car are easier because of RPS. Its quite nerve racking because you really don't know who will win. I would say I win most of the time. We use this game at school a lot as well. Things like who gets the ball first in P.E. or who has to go put the laptops back. I never really realized how much time I save because of rock paper scissors. There would be no other fair way to settle things. You would just keep fighting and fighting and never solve anything. The games that are out of seven are the worst. You could be winning by three and all of a sudden the other person wins four in a row. You have to stay extra focused. All you can feel are your sweaty palms. The best feeling in the world is when you win. You get to rub it in the other persons face and enjoy what ever you won. I would say RPS saves a lot of relationships.

Summer! My favourite season of the year. There are a lot of things I love about summer. I just got a awesome new pool last year. Its really cool. Its got a rock climbing wall, water slide, 13 feet cliff and a bar. The rock climbing wall is really hard and i still haven't made it up! Its so frustrating. This summer for sure I'll make it all the way to the top! Even though I've jumped off the top a million times I still get scared every time. I still feel like I might die! The best part about the pool is at night flashing colours go through the whole pool. Another thing I love to do it go boating. The beach is my favourite place to go in the summer. We got a boat like two years ago. were always on the water. Im not big on tubing but I like to wakeboard. Im pretty sure our guests in the summer never get bored! Thats another thing that happens a lot in the summer, guests. Im pretty sure every week we have guests over. I didn't even know I knew that many people! It could get really annoying. We never really had family time. But it was still fun. I also went to Rattle Snake Canyon a lot! All my cousins work there and this summer I am too. I hope this summer is going to be as great as the last one !

blog assignment #5
I know some of you guys are going to talk about how you went to amazing places this spring break and how you saw great things! I actually did nothing. My sister and cousin went to Greece and Italy and my other cousin went to Vancouver and I stayed home. While they were trying Italian gelato I was watching Pretty Little Liars. I watched both seasons. Its really addicting. I would be lieing if I said thats all I did. I also hung out with my friends. It really sucked because there was no dance for two weeks as well. Sometimes sitting at home I would actually go insane. The most exciting thing I did was stay a night at Spirit Ridge with my friend Jenna. It was great to spend some time with grandparents after their long trip to India. But it would be nice to go to Greece and Italy! I know I should of took advantage of this oppurtunity and do some extra school work but I didn't. I decided to be lazy. I wasn't kidding when I said that I went insane. I would just pace around the house. I also talked to my self. My family thought I crazy. Oh! I almost forgot I also went to go watch The Hunger Games!

My full name is Nimrit Kaur Toor. I think maybe once or twice a sub has gotten my name right. In my culture all of people would call me Nimrat. I hate it! A lot of people will spell it like that as well. A lot of people wont even say my name because there afraid they will get it wrong. Sometimes they think if they get it wrong they will dis respect my culture. I find that really funny. Another thing I hate is that my name is really close to the word Nimrod. I hate that even more. Really my name means polite and nice. Not an insult you would say to someone. I remember in grade 7 a band sub was doing the attendance and he said my name and it wasn't even close to my name. I have no idea how he came up with that. I think every time a sub or a new teacher checks attendance they hesitate every time on my name. I mean its not that hard! All you have to do is sound it out. Nim-rit, no tricks no silent letter just Nimrit. I've gotten used to just saying my name before its called. Sometimes I wish my name would be simpler. But when I think about it my name is quite unique and no one in the school has the same name as me. Mrs.Harstone Im pretty sure you got my name right the first time which is quite surprising.

Assignment #3
Delicious and unhealthy, in other words the vending machine. The vending machine is a great invention. I love the vending machine! I've never gotten two things instead of one but I have stolen someone else's cookie. I didn't mean to I was only ten and it was after swimming lessons. It was very crowed around the vending machine so I accidentally took some other girls cookie. I did realize that it wasn't my cookie but I love cookies so much that I didn't give it back to the girl. So I am trying to say that I ate the cookie. Yes after I did feel kind of guilty but not all guilty because the cookie was really good like really really good. Later on I felt so bad that she didn't get to taste the scrumptious taste bud tingling cookie that I went back and bought her a new cookie. My mom was mad that I spent an extra dollar but it was worth it. The pressure was lifted off my shoulders. So what Im trying to say is never steal even if it's for cookies don't do it. But if I did get two things from the vending machine instead of one it would feel like I won the lottery. (By the way this is made up from my creative imagination.) (:

Bubble Wrap. It is a very simple but amusing subject. Its funny how kids are more excited to pop the bubble wrap in their new packages other then to be excited to see whats in it. When I was a kid I remember my parents used to hate the sound of bubble wrap popping but I loved it. To me it sounded like beautiful music. I don't remember playing with bubble wrap that much. My cousins and I were more into building forts, playing kickball and having grape wars when it was crushing season. I remember before we had the pool we had a big backyard that we used to play kickball on. We would find the weirdest things to make our bases and play.When it was crushing season our parents used to work till like ten at night. So we used to sneak out and hide behind the bins and have little grape wars. Im pretty sure that our parents wouldn't care if we played but sneaking around made it so much more fun. Now that we have the winery a lot of packages come in so there is a lot of bubble wrap! But we are all to lazy to walk to the winery and get it. Now you know my thoughts about bubble wrap bye!
