Just Ben Franklin and Me

Hello,

This is Ben Franklin and Me------>


As I said in my last blog, I'm going to Australia for the People To People program! I earned this $100 bill for this trip! I have been doing fundraising programs to raise the $5,000 dollar fee to go to Australia! So far I have done a bake sale, and some work for some of my grandma and grandpa's friends. Next I'm going to do a concession stand at a Taekwondo tournament, and a Magic The Gathering (If you look in one of the earlier blogs, it'll tell you what it is.) tournament. So far I have made $145. I'm hoping that I can raise enough money to go. And I think It's a great opportunity to make new friends. All over all, I think it's going to be a great trip.

Question of the day: What was the trip of your life time?

Long time, No blog

Hello.

A couple of weeks ago, I went to the Seattle Aquarium. In doing so I finished up the sharks and fish subjects, and started a Sculpting subject. Some of the highlights were.
Eating in a Bistro, on a train.
Listening to my grandma every time the trains arrival time went up a minute. Here's what she would say in a guttural voice. "Oh god, now we are never going to be there on time."
Watching an octopus eat a crab.
Flicking a straw into somebodies hair. Here's my face *-()

And drinking a frappucino from the first Starbucks EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All over all it was a fun day.
