Magical Meeting

Magical Meeting

If I had to chose three real or fictional, dead or alive characters or people to spend an afternoon with, I think I would have to pick Tony Stark (aka Iron Man),  Ed Boon (Creator of Mortal Kombat), and my dead dog, Morusek. There are a lot of things I would do with these three. I would play with Morusek and show my family that he's back (Tina, my current dog, would get jealous and my grandpa would freak out from the happiness overload),  I would ask Tony Stark to teach me how to build robots and exo suits, and I would give Ed Boon all of the millions of ideas I have for the Mortal Kombat 11 storyline, which is in the making right now. Tony Stark teaching me how to be a superhero would be AWESOME,  Morusek's return would make my family beyond happy because we had such a strong connection with him and he was with us for 13 years (which is a long lifespan for a labrador). Anyway, I was a bit disappointed with the storyline for Mortal Kombat X (a majority of players, including me, thought the story mode in Mortal Kombat 9 was better). Feedback from fans is essential when it comes to making a sequel, so I would help Ed Boon make Mortal Kombat 11 the best fighting game of all time.

Field Trip

Favorite Field Trip

My favorite field trip ever would have to have been the time I went to Camp MacLean in 7th grade. Everything about it was outstanding, and I am so excited that we are going back there this May. Everyone had to bring a pillow, blanket, toothbrush, etc. because we stayed the night over there. I am really happy that I brought my camera there, and I recorded a lot over there and took many pictures. I got to stay in a cabin, and a couple of my closest friends were in the same cabin as me, too. The food was pretty good. The activities and things we did there were awesome. We got to do archery, fishing (I didn´t catch anything), teamwork course, and best of all - the rock climbing course. In the time gaps between each activity, we got to roam around the camp with our friends and talk, and we also got to play gaga ball. I got to record a couple of our games, and I recorded myself rock-climbing. The best part of it was when we did boys vs. girls capture the flag in the middle of the night. It was so cool! My best friend and I kept sneaking into the girls team to look for the flag, but we didn´t have any luck. One of our teachers broke the rules and told our team where the girls flag is, and we won. After the long 2 hour game, we all had to go to sleep. Our teacher had to leave my cabin, so we all played games in there and told scary stories. When we saw him through the window, walking back to our cabin, we immediately raced to our bunk beds and fell asleep. I had so much fun over there and I am more than excited to go back there in just a couple months.

Movie Post

My Favorite Movie Genres and My Favorites of Each Genre

I have 3 favorite movie genres. Horror, comedy, and action. My favorite horror movie would definitely be ¨Lights Out (2016)¨. It´s purpose was to revive the audience´s fear of the dark that they had when they were little kids. It´s about this evil dark entity named Diana terrorizing this family, but she can only live in darkness. If you are in the light, you are safe. If you are in a dark area, she will get you. However, she can also destroy the lights that the people have. And unlike most horror films these days, this movie is not just cheap jumpscares. It actually made the hairs on my arms stand up at times! I´m not going to lie, I wanted to put a night light in my room after watching Lights Out.

My favorite comedy would probably be ¨Planes, Trains, and Automobiles (1987)¨. I´m sure a lot of people would agree with me on this one. This is a Thanksgiving classic. It´s about a man trying to get to Chicago to see his family for Thanksgiving, and he meets a man who is kind of a loser, but has a very kind heart. Its one of those comedies which the main character has so much bad luck for the whole movie, and I teared up from laughing a couple times in it. Even though this movie is rated R because one of the scenes has a lot of F-bombs, my family and I watch it every Thanksgiving after the feast.

I have a lot of favorite action movies, but five really stand out. They are; ¨Terminator 2: Judgement Day (1991)¨, ¨Captain America Civil War (2016)¨,  "Leon: The Professional (1994)'', ''Thor (2011)", and ''Guardians of the Galaxy (2014)''. These are all amazing films and I have definitely watched them more than once. They have great acting, amazing plots, and if you're a fan of watching professional action scenes, these are the movies for you.

Music

Music
I'm not really a big fan of music, but my family is. They like listening to classical music and rock music. I like rock music myself, but not nearly as much as my friends and family do. Everyone in my family loves Metallica, but I don't remember listening to any of their songs. I guess my favorite song would have to be Chop Suey by System of a Down. I also like the song Seven Nation Army a lot. Lots of people like rap the most, but I really don't see why. Its just someone talking really fast. I used to be OBSESSED with Gangnam Style by Psy back when I was in fourth grade. I used to love the song PPAP a few months ago, but it feels like no one even remembers that song anymore. My least favorite song is Sweatshirt by Jacob Sartorious. It makes me want to rip out my eardrums every time I hear it.

Which U.S. President Do I Admire The Most?

My Favorite President And Why
I think this is a very interesting question and I think my favorite president would have to be Abraham Lincoln. If you really think about it, he saved so many of us. I know there are other presidents who saved the way we live today, too, but can you imagine what life would be like if the Confederates won the American Civil War? It would be chaotic and a complete disaster. Abraham Lincoln succeeded in putting an end to slavery and preserving the Union. By doing this, he saved all of us and this is why he is my favorite president.

School Job

School Job
''If you had to be a teacher, what subject would you teach?''  That, in my opinion, is a very interesting and difficult question. I've thought about it for a while now, and I think I could be a History teacher. This is because I've always been thinking how different the world was like hundreds and even thousands of years ago, and I honestly feel like people's lives these days are much less awesome than people from the middle ages. History also has a lot of Geography in it, which I can say is one of the things I am really smart in. I also like learning about wars, it's one of the few things in school that doesn't nearly make me practically fall asleep in class. My answer to this question used to be a PE teacher, but I feel like it's pretty sadistic to watch the non-athletic kids struggle during exercises. History, Spanish, and sometimes PE and English Language Arts are really fun subjects in my opinion, and if I had to teach one of those, it would probably be History.

Christmas Gift

                                                              Christmas Gift
           It was Christmas Eve of 2016, and I was so excited to see what presents I got! Its a tradition with my family that we open the presents on Christmas Eve. I guess that is a Polish thing. Anyway, everyone just finished eating their food, and, like every previous Christmas, it was time to reveal what all of us got for being good people this year. There were so many nice presents sitting under the huge tree, and there was a big one at the very end with ''For Rafy'' written on it. The curiosity in me was going insane, but I held in me the anticipation. My mom asked ''Ok, so who wants to give out the presents?''. Everyone but me had eaten a LOT of food, so I thought I would be able to do it, I mean, its not that hard at all. No one was volunteering, so I said ''I will''. And as I was reading the names on the presents and passing them out to whoever it belonged to, the anticipation was growing more and more. I was around halfway done passing out the presents, I had already gotten a couple of presents so far for myself. Just a sweater and a bunch of cheetos bags. Then, I got a nice leather jacket. After a few more minutes of giving people their gifts, I was at the end of the row of presents. So, it was time to see what was inside that nice big box. I started opening it... And it... Was.... A PS4!!!!! I wanted one so much! I was so happy with what I got, and it also came with Uncharted 4. Then I noticed, there was a small box that had ''Rafy'' written on it. ANOTHER PRESENT??? This can't be real! And this is the part where I practically have a seizure from the happiness. I got my most anticipated game of all time.... Mortal Kombat XL for my PS4. This sure was the best day of 2016.
