Wrote some last night (i was in St. George 2 nights ago)
Well I guess I have quite a bit to talk about. I want to talk about what I did yesterday and today, and about radio dramas so I guess I better get started.
Yesterday, I was on my computer editing this picture when my nan walked in and asked "Do you want to go to the cottage in St. George for the night?" I had to think that over because it was already 6 at night and getting late. Eventually, I was convinced because I wanted to go water skiing because I've never done it before.
I got there around 7 and on the way up listened to a podcast.
When I got there I went water skiing right away. It took me 5 try's to get up out of the water. When I actually got up, I only went about 5 feet before falling again. Then I watch my little cousin do it like nothing. After that, we went and looked for the eels that were near the dock. That night we spent an hour trying to catch one, with no luck. Then I went into the cottage, read my cousins a book, watch a bit of some sort of a movie (i forgot the name so it probably wasn't memorable) then went to bed.
The next day, I was woke up by 2 screaming kids playing there DS. Even worse, it was 7am. I told them to be quiet and half-slept till 9, when I was woke up by them (this time they were told to). We went out to eat at a restaurant in the St. George mall. When we got back from eating, I went swimming with 6 or so little kids for an hour or 2. Then this guy my age who i'd played soccer with before named Brandon showed up. He went water skiing while I watched on the boat. After about 5 try's he got up and stayed up for a long time.
Then, it was my turn. I tryed with the ski's he was using but didn't like them, so we went back and got the bigger pair. Finally, I got up and stayed up for a long time. When I finally fell, I was proud of myself.
We went swimming some more and saw the eels, and after about an hour of trying, brandon cauht one. I grabbed the line and pulled to into a bucket of water. I tryed to take the hook out, but it was on really good so I broke the line. We let him back in the bucket and I tryed to get the hook out again. He floped around and the hook just fell out. Then I played washers for awhile and came back home.
Anyways, I wanted to talk about radio dramas today. Before the time of television, people listened to shows on there radios for fun. They started around 1920 and were popular until the tv came. The way I found out about them was when I was going to scout camp in quebec in 2007 and our leader had The Star Wars radio drama on CD. We listened to them on the way up, and later our leader let me make copys of the cds. I just recently found out about other radio dramas and now im hooked. I really like the twilight zone radio dramas and the star wars ones. I downloaded the War of the Worlds which was a radio drama that got people scared because it was a fake news brodcast that said aliens landed on earth. I listened to it and see how people could of got scared. Anyways, I found Lord of the Rings radio drama and some Narnia radio drama. I think all of this audio should fit in nicely with my podcasts and audiobooks. Oh ya, I like to listen to these things when im supposed to be alseep. Its nice because it doesnt use light to wake up my grandparents like a psp does.
