The rest of the days were skiing and snowboarding days. Most of the nights we went out to have dinner sometimes only the four of us and other days with the whole family, which was pretty fun. I have to admit that the food in Whistler is much better than the food in Vail, for the past six years I have been going to Vail and I prefer Whistler's temperature and food but not the mountain as for skiing.
This was my first year at Whistler and I really have a big desire to go back. But apparently this year 2011 our family will go to Europe in December some part in Germany to ski instead of Vail or Whistler.

Christmas Break!!!
For Christmas I went with my family and my mother's family to Whistler in Canada and my dad, sister, mom and me stayed in Toronto for 2 days. In Toronto y got the chance to go and have dinner at the CN Tower which if I'm correct it is the tallest building in the world!!! Having dinner there was probably the best dinner of my life until now since the food was very good and also the restaurant was turning a 360 all the time, so your view kept on changing all the time and i was able to see all of Toronto from above. The next day we went back to the CN Tower again because there is a glass floor where we could stand on, which was nerve cracking since all you saw was the big drop and how little the cars and people were from above.
After Toronto we when finally to Whistler...(I was desperate to start Snowboarding), sadly I didn't have enough time to go and snowboard on the first day since there it got started getting dark at 4 pm and most of the lifts got closed at 3:30 pm. That day I rented my snowboard and boots, but before of that we had to go and buy all the food. The next day me and my dad finally got the chance to go out and ski, my mom and sister were to lazy to go out. That day was a relief to be because I was insanely desperate to start snowboarding.
More coming soon

Assigment Reading
Ok, so for English class we are now reading "First They Killed My Father a daughter of Cambodia remembers" the title is kind of long and sounds really sad.
NOTE: if you have not read the book and don't want me to spoil the book for you DO NOT read this.
Before we started reading this book our teacher told us that the book is not as sad as it sounds, now I think she meant the book is sadder than it sounds and unpleasant. It is a really descriptive book that Loung the protagonist and author of the book relates her story of when the Khmer Rouge took over Phnom Penh, what happen to her family and what they had to do in order to not get killed or starve to death.
I personally find the book very unpleasant and sad because lots of her family members die and the descriptions about some things are very detailed, for example:
If Loung (protagonist) sees a rotten dead body it will be describe in a lot of detail and even smells.

But at the same time I find it very interesting since she is telling something which is true, it is a real story and it makes you realize that “wow, I could not believe through what this people have gone through” (that is what I personally think).

Grounded
It is my first time I have been grounded so badly, and why? because of my bad grades. The first quarter of the year I have taken it with a lot of laziness and I have not been doing my home work. So now every after noon I have to stay for an extra hour at school and instead of arriving at 8:15am I have to arrive at 7:35am, I can not play xbox and my dad is about to take away my Mac which makes no sense since I still have my school computer, and I also have to catch up with all of the home works i did not do plus the ones I have to do without falling back in the other works. Oh and I also have to go to swimming twice a week.

Fall Break..... is over.
I really did not do much this break apart from sleeping, watch TV, read and study so get to make my grades go up. To tell the truth even if my parents were traveling I actually did not brake the house apart (victory)... not even a plate and the best is that my sister was not as annoying as I expected (victory). But something interesting that happened to me as a video gamer is that I found the real truth of WoW (World of Warcraft), I tried the free 10 day trial because lots of friends that actually play or played it tolled me it was a very addicting game and that it was a lot of fun. So I downloaded the game from their actual website and when it finished downloading I asked for the free trial they give you, I really was very exited to play it and at first it seemed very good but then I started to get bored of it and did not find it as exiting and addicting as people said and i was able to control my self from playing it (victory).
Even if I was really bored during this fall break I really do not want to go to school tomorrow to again hear the words "so your homework will be....." but I got to face it, and I know it is going to be a word that a will hear for four years I think.

Fall BREAK!!!!!! XD
HELLO! Well right now I'm in Fall break XD, and my parents decided to take a trip for 12 days, which has been great for them, but sadly for me I had to stay with my annoying 16-year-old sister. I have to post something in my blog for my English class that has to be at least 200 words long and right now I don't even have the sliest idea of what I am going to right about.
Well this Fall Brake has not been the best since I am really bored at my house with nothing to do because all of my friends are traveling, lets say that the last 2 vacations haven't been the best because in summer break I only had 3 weeks of vacations and one of I passed inside my fathers office, and this October has been like "Home Alone" but instead of adventurous... BORING.
So right now I don't know what I will do for the rest of this break, something must come up.
And something I am surely doing to do is study because my grades right now are not that good, so that means I will have to read see if I can do some extra work and those kind of things to get my grades up.

I'm Happy!!!
This is so great, today my father is going on a business trip and that means that I’m going to be able to play Xbox360 but i will still have to do my homework but still.
Father in trip + 14 year old teenager + Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 = FFFUUNN
My problem is that I made a bet with my dad that was that if i didn't pass the Math Exam he wouldn’t let me play Xbox until i passed math the first term but if i did pass it he would let me play whenever i wanted (What a stupid bet from my part) obviously I lost.
Gladly my mom doesn’t take it that seriously so i will still be able to play from today till Sunday.
