Middle School brings Jasmine to the land of science fairs. A showcase of experimental minds formulating hypothesis, collecting data and presenting elaborate poster boards.
Science Fair
The Birds
This post is not for the faint of heart. We had a crow invasion in Portland one day. It put all the scenes in The Birds to shame. Hitchcock would have been proud. I’m proud of the fact I made it to my car without poop on my head. The car was not so lucky.
Spring
That time of year! The calendar may say that March 21 is the first day of spring, but here it usually can be found in late February, when the cherry blossoms and daffodils start blooming. Unfortunately early March winds blew all of the yellow petals off my daffodils before I could get a picture.
Bowling
We spent Valentine’s Day bowling with friends of ours – Lisa, Chris and their son Andrew. None of us are all that great at bowling and some of us (me) are quite terrible at it. I decided to commander assistance in the form of a plastic dragon luge that sends your ball down the lanes at speeds approaching 1 mile an hour.
Everyone had fun trying it out, but since we wanted to actually finish a game, most opted for a more traditionally swing. Jasmine ended up doing quite well, finishing in the top three in all of the games. Bumpers are a girl’s best friend.
By the way, Sunset Lanes has some pretty amazing french fries and tater tots. More than enough reason to spend a nice afternoon with good friends.
Red Lobster food experience
This is Jasmine and today it was my job in doing a blog article. I am excited to be sharing my dad and I’s Red Lobster experience. We both had a fun time, my dad got the seafood platter while I got the chicken strips and a ceasar salad. You are probably wondering why I didn’t get any seafood well that’s because I don’t really like the taste of it. My dad on the other hand loves it. In fact he can remove crab leg meat without breaking the actual shell!
I picked the ceasar salad, because I never had it before and I LOVE trying new things. As an example during the meal I asked my dad if I could try something off of his plate. But I didn’t really like any of it especially the lobster. It was a rather dull in taste! So I guess I’ll never grow to enjoy sea food :(!
