Basketball Camp!

I'm off to basketball camp for two hours! I'll let you know how it went when I get back!

Jake's Daily Blog - 6/28

Today was well, interesting. Not the most enjoyable day of my life, that's for sure. That's because I was sick. :( I had a pretty bad bug and my stomach was sore almost all day. It hurt alot and I decided not to go to basketball camp today because I didn't want to "ralf" all over my teammates. Yeah, so pretty much all I did today was hang around and watch CSI. Fergus my dog kept me company, which of course made my day. Then my mother had to leave for work and there was nobody home except my little brother who had set his butt down in front of the TV in the basement for 6 hours straight. Then I watched some YouTube videos and updated my Wii! Yeah I know, total GEEK ALERT!!!!!! But Wii 4.6 is pretty lame anyway. I think all it did was install parental controls, which doesn't matter because if my parents hadn't of bought it, they wouldn't even know that we owned one. Yep basically the day was a complete bust and nothing notable even happened, even the fact that I never changed out of pajamas... and its 9:30 at night! WHoooPs! Well, I'm trying to come up with some kind of logo for iSplosion.net right now, so I better get going! Thanks for reading and I'll blog to you guys tomorrow!!!

iPad- The New Apple Phenom!

IPad is a new revolutionary device released by Apple and it’s a mix of the iPhone to Apple, Apple iTouch, and a full notebook or a laptop. Using the touch screen you can use the Internet for research applications along with the audio and video features by this new Apple iPad device. In recent years Tablet PC Apple was presented at the press conference for Apple, where many people have seen the recent outbreak of Apple. It is the same as the Apple iPhone but some visitors’ waits to the features on the iPad tablet latest version of Apple.

At the time of release the new IPAD presented many people refer to this as the updated version of Apple iPhone and Apple iTouch. So the users of iPhone and iTouch want to know the latest features of new Apple IPAD. The best features of this version that I like most as an iPad Lover is the battery Apple iPad about 10 hours with one battery charge will last 30 days in standby mode.

The iPad does everything most people do on their computers every day but the average user needs vast amounts of storage or processing power, they want to browse the web, watch a movie and send emails etc and Apple is to be believed that the iPad does all these things better than a computer. When you've an Apple iPad, the technology that is included using your device permits one to zoom in on the Safari webpages and see them quite clearly. Just tap the useful Multi-Touch touchscreen with your finger and it is possible to see your preferred webpages the way you want to see them at your new iPad version.

Expandable memory is not an option with the X6 however a generous 32GB of internal memory provides plenty of storage for media files, contacts and files of Wi-Fi database. RAM is 128MB and a variety of connectivity options include class32 GPRS and class32 EDGE. Internet connection is provided in by HSDPA at speeds of up to 3.6Mbps and Wi-Fi access lets users take advantage of various locations around the country because the Bluetooth version 2.0 is installed as standard allowing file transfer between compatible Bluetooth devices.

People will get many features of IPhone and ITouch form different devices with higher specs and lower prices - but that doesn’t mean a thing better then iPad because it did exactly what people needed perfectly, millions of people have chosen the iPad over more powerful devices for the same reason.

The combination of powerful applications and hardware X6’s operating system is symbian series 60 combined with a powerful RAM 11 434 processor, the X6 is a very capable iPad. Other included features are an organizer, photo editor, voice command/dial and T9 predictive text input etc.

massive headache, can't even stand to open my eyes without excruciating pain, blog tomorrow.

MONGO MAKE FLAME!!

Before I get started about today, here's some footage from yesterday!

Last night's bonfire was pretty funny. We played 20 Questions, which is really hard to play with my little brother because he never actually thinks of real things. His word is always some pokemon or star wars creature...

Today was a pretty productive day. I played around with this site for a while and you may have noticed some slight changes, such as the addition of a poll! You can now vote on what I should do this summer! I'll have a different poll each week for you guys to vote on! So let's see how that works. I also worked on some video ideas and I have some pretty cool web series coming up soon as well. How do you guys feel about me doing a little thing on this blog called "Daily Dose of Dog" or something along those lines. This would be me posting a small video or picture of my dog or other dogs I see throughout the day, of course along with the usual blog like the one you're reading. Well, tomorrow I start basketball camp, which is basically just 4 days of basic skill drills and exercises and then scrimmages against other "teams". It's alot of fun and they run you hard for an hour and fifteen minutes straight!!!! I decided to start blogging in color to make it more aesthetically pleasing. Another funny little tidbit about my family; my dad recently taught my brother how to make quesidillas (tortilla with cheese in the microwave) and now Chris wants quesidillas for pretty much every meal... *rolling eyes* Wow. I told Chris this video would never go online, but here it is!

That's about it for now! I'll let you know how B-ball camp goes tomorrow! BY3!

STORM!!!

SUPER FREAKY AND HUGE!

Today was a pretty fun day. Chris (my little brother) and myself chased each other around with nerf guns for a while, which was pretty funny. I mainly hung around the house and played some poker with our spare change, watched some movies on TV, and went for a walk on the bike path we live by. Oh yeah, on the 17th, there was this HUGE storm covering almost the entire state of MN at one point or another and here's a video I made of the clouds. The video is on the post above! It's pretty cool. The clouds were really weird and the whole sky turned like orange and yellow. SUPER FREAKY! I took a quick video of Fergus playing and talking with his little doggy neighbor/friend. I can't get it to work right now and I'm pretty tired, so I think I'll post that tomorrow. The walk that me and my family went on was nice. It's short, about a quarter-mile and it's nice for Fergus (my little pup) because there's lots of tall grasses with lots of smells. He's a funny dog!

Back from Brainerd!

Ta-Da!! I'm back from vacation in Brainerd, Minnesota! We stayed in a cabin near a really nice lake with a beach with many, many ducks...






While we were there, we got hit with unfortunate weather, where it rained 2/3 of the time. We did play lots of card games such as Texas Hold 'em. It was fun altogether, but I would've liked to get in the water a bit more, but a few hours of jumping off a water tramp and canoeing was sufficient. Well, we also went to a very interesting museum. The museum was in a Minnesotan Army Training Camp, Camp Ripley. Here are a bunch of pictures!













It was alot of fun and I'm glad I can share it with you guys! Blog to you guys tomorrow!

UGH...

Okay, I've got a bunch of pictures and a few little videos from my trip to brainerd, but I'm really tired from over 3 hours of riding in a car. Coming home from a vacation really sucks. I'll have a whole lot of new stuff tomorrow, since (thank god) its SUMMER!!!!!!! Woooohooooooo!!!!

~Exhausted and depressed.

CRAP!!

Falling asleep on the couch watching TV is not the best way to blog on time! I'm going on vacation in Brainerd, MN for a few days. I'll write the blogs just like I usually do, but I'll post them all when I get home. Thanks! :D

Jake SUCKS AT BLOGGING!

Wow, Jake FAIL! Been busy doing a bunch of stuff, and I totally just realized that I've done zero blogging since Wednesday. Nothing notable to report, so I'll talk to you guys later on tonight. Thanks for understanding! :D

SCHOOL'S OUT FOR SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!

Well, today was my last day as an eighth grader. I'm now going to be a freshman in high school. wow, time goes fast, doesn't it!? I didn't do much today other than watching a 5 hour marathon of my favorite TV show, NCIS. After school, I went to my friend's house (AeroSwift125 on youtube) and we hung out. We didn't do much, tossed around the old pigskin and jumped off a shed. And then, the most fun activity of the day by far, the microwaving of a CD.

So that's about it for today. I'm a little late because I got sucked into CSI:NY again... Darn it Gary Sinise!!!

DEVIL WOMAN ATTACKS and I succeed at ART!

What happened today? Well, not much. My locker now contains only a few binders, and a pencil or two. Why do we even bother having a last week of school, anyway? We've only learned new things in math class because my math teacher's an air head and thinks we're going to pay attention and remember new material the day before our big graduation stuff. Well, I'm glad the PAIN is over with, as tonight we were assigned our last math assignment of the eighth grade. It is unnecessarily confusing and absolutely pointless. I didn't like my math teacher very much, she kinda wanted to make me scream "DEVIL WOMAN!" every time I walked near her classroom. And that, my fellow reader, is an understatement. Hmmmm... What happened today? Well, today in art we were allowed to bring home our projects that we worked on this year. The pictures above are of a clay jar we made, and an etched mirror, that says music with some weird designs on it. Pretty cool, right? I got an A- on both projects, which is the best two grades I've ever gotten in art class. Well, I got to go for today. Blog to the rest of y'all tomorrow!

Bottle Rockets and Hyper Teenage Girls!

Well, today was another one of those days. A day where nothing really occurs but yet many things do. Like, for instance, today I attended a meeting at the library because I'm a teen volunteer (which, believe it or not, my parents had no part in). The meeting was so we could get our schedules and be trained on what we're supposed to do during our 12 hours of volunteering during this summer. This "important" meeting was supposed to last one hour, which seemed lengthy considering the agenda. Half of an hour later we were dismissed. Luckily for me, I live within 5 mins. walking distance of our library, and most of the other teens needed to get rides back home, so they ended up waiting at the library for a half an hour playing Pictionary with the librarians (which didn't sound like the most appealing invitation ever). That was one of the most pointless meetings I have ever been to. Basically half of the time spent during this important gathering was the girl behind me that was in the ninth or tenth grade, was acting much more like a fifth grader who had eaten many pixie stix just minutes before, and she wouldn't stop talking and then she would ask the librarian what she had just said because she "didn't hear what she said". AAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH! It seems like I type that alot, especially when I'm talking about things that occur in my life. One of the coolest things that I've ever done in school happened today; we launched bottle rockets! Not the firework, but in Astronomy class, we built pop bottle rockets the last few days. Today was launch day, which was really, really AWESOME! The way it works is that we hook up an air compressor to a pole attached to a wooden rack and we compress about 90 pounds of force with about 50% water in the first 2 liter pop bottle you see above in the picture. Then we have the countdown from five, and then, BOOM! Those little pop bottles go at least 300 ft in the air and go about 90-100 yards. That is one of the coolest things I've ever done! My friend got some HD video of the launch, so I'll probably have that tomorrow or Wednesday. That about wraps it up for today, so I guess I'll blog y'all later! (wow, that was sooo lame Jake. )

School's Out and Yearbook Troubles :D

I'm really excited right now, because there's only three more days of school left! Then we have Thursday off, and Friday is eighth-grade graduation, which sounds long, lame, and frankly, quite pointless. We sit there for 2 hours listening to names being named and a few speeches from teachers. Big whip-de-doo! I'm also very frustrated because our school is very stupid. My mom bought a year book for 20 bucks at the beginning of the year with some online thing for our school. Apparently, the school doesn't have any record that my mom or me bought a year book and now i have to go in before school starts tomorrow and buy one for a whopping 31 dollars!!!! Arrrggggghhhhhh! What actually happened today is that me, my brother, and my mom went camping. We went to a campsite where we went last July, the Nerstrand Big Woods State Park in Nerstrand, MN. The name Big Woods, means they've got BIG woods! We walked about two miles on Saturday, and today, we walked over 3 miles! The paths were very muddy because of a recent rain, so pretty much every step we took sounded pretty, uh, gross. Haha. I'm glad we didn't bring our dog, Fergus, because he would've been black! And he's a white dog! Now back to another random topic! You can tell when school is pretty much over when you are told to bring home all of your gym clothes and you're taking everything out of your locker and you no longer have any textbooks. Another sign is when all you do in class is watch movies. Ahhh, our tax dollars at work, right? Well, I guess I better get started with my english paper, that is due wednesday... oops.

Blog to you guys later, Jake
