Riley's Hack School

I went scuba diving. It was fun. My air tank was silver. It was easy and I got used to it very quickly. I am going again tomorrow. bye

On Wednesday I took two Melrose center classes focusing on lighting techniques and fundamentals. The first class was pretty boring because it was a piece of paper telling everyone the history of lights. The second class was better because I actually got to use some of the lights. After the classes I went to a pool party with my friends. I stayed for a while and I even got a mild sunburn on my shoulders. After I left the party my sailing classes were to begin. We met at the fashion square mall and learned about tacking and what all the parts of the sail boat are.

On tuesday I didn't really accomplish anything very important. I did my usual school stuff but I skipped out on the activities because I didn't feel great.

On Thursday I got up an let my chickens out. After that Aubrie and I went to airheads for trampoline jumping. Before we arrived we went to Starbucks ad got coffee. After jumping I brought my friend Phil home. He didn’t stay long because he felt sick. Right after Phil left I went to stardust cafe to watch robin to a nerd night talk.

On Monday I went to the Science Center at 11 and look around the exhibits. When I was there I met up with some other homeschooled people and walked around with them for a little while. When it was 12:00 I went down to the movie theatre and watched a documentary on butterflies. Right after the documentary I left the Science center to go rock climbing. They changed a lot of the paths up the walls so I had new ways to climb.

On Saturday I had my farm volunteering and it wasn't as great as it usually is. Since summer decided to start without any notice, it was pouring rain all day. I only stayed for and hour and a half before I called Aubrie. On the way back home I got food at Brio and called it a day.

On Friday I was taken out for a shopping adventure at the Florida mall. When we got there the first thing we looked for was Old Navy. We spent about 30 minutes looking through there. After we left the store we wandered around the mall in search of more places to spend money. After little searching we decided to get Starbucks. We wandered around for a while when we stumbled upon this awesome tea shop. We bought 60 dollars worth of tea. It was definitely worth it.

On Thursday I woke up at around 10:00 so I would be able to go the trampoline place. There were a lot of new people there. After jumping my sister and I went out to get Thai food to plan next week. at 3:00 I had ultimate frisbee. I stayed for a little over an hour and I got really tired. When I got home I almost went to bed. Later that day, Robin made dinner and it was really good. He made noodle and vegetable casserole.

On Wednesday I went to the library early in the morning to take a flight simulator class. I ultimately failed but it was still pretty fun. After the flight simulator I got to play video games with my friends. After I left the library my father took me clothes shopping because was in desperate need of new clothing. For dinner I went out with my family.

On Tuesday I was assigned the project of painting a new lounge chair in my yard.  I couldn't paint that day due to rain so I will be finishing on Wednesday. Right after the chair project, I left with my brother to go to ultimate frisbee. It was really fun. When I arrived home from ultimate my father had made pasta and I fell asleep rather happy.

On Monday I woke up early to deal with my pets and finally eat breakfast. A little after breakfast I went outside to paint a bench that I have. It took about 2 hours because I had to do multiple coats. For dinner my dad brought back some really good bread and we made lots of sandwiches.

On Sunday I woke up really early to let my chickens out and surprisingly enough I actually stayed awake. At about 11 A.M. my dad made his waffles from scratch. My dad's waffles are the best thing in the world. After I ate I went inside to work on test and play some video games.

Today I went rock climbing at Aiguille. It was really fun until my friends had to leave which meant I had to stop climbing. My sister Aubrie brought her little baby boy and there was no one to watch him while she belayed. After climbing I went to Hubbly bubbly to partake in some delicious falafel.

Towards the end of the class the teacher brought out fruits and vegetables that had been jarred previously. There were apricots and radishes. Also onions and banana peppers. My favorite was the apricots. The banana peppers tasted like curry, and the onions were really sweet. In the end I am really glad that I learned how to jar and I would like to take the class again.

The reason I rock climb is for an after class activity. It is also a way to work out gain new strength, endurance, and stamina. Rock climbing is awesome and I hope to be doing it for a while.

Today, I went rockclimbing after missing last week. I was really tired today on account of the rather large breakfast that I had and did not climb as much as usual. After I arrived back at my house I made plans to go to my friend Charlie's house on Tuesday night. I also did some math today. 

Today I didn't do very much. My sister Aubrie came home from Guatemala so I finally had some motivation to get some work done. Other than that it was a relaxing day.
