crusie to the bahamas part one

About 5 or 6 years ago my parents and I went on a cruise around the Bahamas. We ported out from New York which I have talked about in an earlier blog. I remember pulling up to the place where we were docking and seeing the biggest cruise ship I have ever seen. My mom told me that I was the biggest cruise ship that carnival has until recently they built a new bigger one. To get your baggage and to show your pass port and all that good stuff takes hours to be done. That to me is the worst part of the trip. By the time we get on the ship we only have like 30 minutes till we have to do this thing called mustard. Which is like a thing were they show what to do if something wrong happens on the ship and that also takes about an hour.

After that you can do what ever you want on the ship. That is my favorite part of cruises. It is like having so much freedom; you can eat a nice meal at anytime and do anything on the ship at any time. Being on the ship is like being on a boat that has a little city on it. And there is so much that you can do on the cruise too. In the beginnings of when you are on the ship you get lost real easily and on this cruise ship i was lost for almost an hour. I finally found the front deck to ask how to get back.


One of the fun things to do on the ship was to get dressed up for dinner and having a fancy dinner every night if you wanted one. On this cruise we had the same waiter every night he was really nice. Him and my dad use to joke a lot it was cool. And through out the there were a lot of show that you can watch through out the day like magic show, music and theatre shows, and comedy shows. I like the comedy ones the most because I love to watch comedy acts. The magic shows are pretty fun too. On this cruise ship they had a huge art gallery that had amazing pictures in it I really enjoyed walking through it. This cruise ship had three or four pools on it and a water slide. on the top floor it had a huge club for kids just to hanging out and next to it a smaller like dance club, which was still pretty big, for older people. One of the bad things about the trip is that it feels like it goes by to fast. I am always sad about going home because ill miss being on the cruise. Going on cruises are probably the most fun trips I have been on. On the next blog ill talk about the islands that we went to on the cruise. This trip was a very memorable vacation to go on with my family.

skateboarding 101

I have been skating for about four or five years now. Late I have not been going out to skate because the group of friends that I have been hanging out with kind of stopped skating, but I still love it. The first time I have ever got on to a skateboard I was at my cousin’s house. He had a skateboard in the garage and I went out side with it. At that time he had just began to skate too but he was able to Ollie. Within the first day I was able to Ollie. Since then I have not got off a board. My first board was a cheap big five board because I had no clue about anything to deal with skating. It is weird going to the skate park now looking at all the little kids skating. When you first go to the skate park you don’t really know anything like, you don’t know to stay out of people’s lines and to watch out for other people.

Watching other people’s skate videos is a big part of skating if you want to improve. Watching a good skate video can give you motivation to go out and skate. When I first started skating I only knew the famous people that skate like tony hawk Rodney Mullen and so on, but now I think I watched almost every video on Youtube about skating and I know about every skate team.

I remember trying to Ollie my first 4 stair which is easy now but then I was pretty scared. All my friends were like come on you can do it. And that’s what I like about skating, that it all up to you. You have complete control for what you are doing. And you always have your friend there to back you up. *<]:')

100 things to do

Since watching this television show on Mtv called The Buried Life, I have been thinking about what I want to do with my life. This show is about these 5 guys that made a list of 100 things to do before they die. So far in this season they have snuck into the playboy mansion and partied with celebrities. The last episode they snuck on to the premiere of transformers 2 and tried to ask out Megan Fox. Seeing these guys do this it is pretty inspiring. I started thinking things I want to in my life time.
One thing I want to do before I die is go sky diving. I always had a dream of flying and sky diving i the closest thing to that. Another thing that I want to before I die us to make someone's dreams come true.
