Journal Entry 27/1/10

I don't really know what to write, so I'll talk about Warhammer 4000. Warhammer is a game where you have war with other races, this is game where you use action figures and fight, you need to calculate the army points and the distance for moving and shooting, this is a strategy game, and fun with a little math in it. You can play Warhammer in the Minichurs club after school, it's a great game.

Movies

I admit that I watched to many movies this vacation, I already watched 7 and have a chance of letting this number go up. Before the break I got a chance to go to Ratu Plaza to get some movies so I wont feel bored this break. The first movie I watched was Twilight, just after I finished the second book I watched this movie. Then I went and saw New Moon, the second movie in the Twilight Saga. After awhile Avatar came to the cinema and I saw it in 3D! After I saw Avatar I watched UP in my house, it's a pretty good movie. After UP I watched Transformers, so many action and fighting. Zombieland was the next movie I picked out, scary but with a bit of comedy also very bloody. The last movie is G-Force, about little hamsters being FBI and saving the world. This is a lot of movies.

SPORE

I finally got something I wanted, SPORE. I got it today from my next door neighbor Nicky Jo. Since SPORE is a very big file, and I don't have that big USB, we didn't know what to do. In the end thanks to Nicky's dad we burned it on a DVD. After it finished I raced to my laptop and put the disk in. It worked! Thanks to Nicky's dad I finally got SPORE! I played SPORE for an hour and didn't want to stop, but my dad said I have to study so I left my computer. I think this is the best thing happened to me in this vacation till now.
