Epic Surprise Party

Once a friend told me that he never celebrated his birthday, that he only had a cake and cookies with his family and that’s all. I and all the class felt sorry for him, so we decided to organize a surprise birthday party for him.

We prepared it for a week, we hired a DJ and we bought lots and lots of junk food, finally the special day arrived, we all got in his house at 7:00 PM we did the last arrangements and we looked for a place to hide, finally he arrived, we all jumped into the air and the music started playing, he got so happy and excited he cried.

Trip to Florianopolis, Brazil

When I arrived to Brazil I immediately felt the tropical climate, and I knew that some amazing vacations where about to start. We arrived to resort in a big white van; a very nice receptionist showed us our rooms, we dresses up with swimming suits and sandals and we ran to the pool and then to the beach.

The attention was very good and the food was great, near the pools and the beach there was a room where they had ice cream hamburgers and French fires, I met a Chilean boy of my age, his name was Humberto Piña Valle; we went to the beach every day.

I totally recommend this place for other people and I would definitely go back some day.

What a Simple Distraction Can Lead To

Today I was watching the bowling world cup semifinals between [TSM]TheOddOne and SKMC, it was a very close match until… [TSM]TheOddOne scored a strike, but only because he passed the throwing line by almost 6 yards and the referee didn’t notice because he had dropped his pancakes in his pants.

[TSM]TheOddOne advanced to the finals, but only because of the strike he scored, I think this is unacceptable, a rematch should be done and the retarded referee should be fired and never be able to be a referee again.

I have seen these types of “mistakes” a lot in basketball and football and something has to be done about it.
