LACROSSE
When young warriors of the Native American Iroquois tribe gathered for lacrosse games hundreds of years ago, they faced a truly Herculean test of stamina. Long before it became an hour-long game for 20 players, lacrosse was a mammoth team sport with hundreds of participants battling it out on a pitch that could be anything up to a mile long, sometimes for three days straight. As a result the Iroquois, who along with the Huron helped invent lacrosse, know a thing or two about playing the long game. Despite their reputation for astonishing endurance, the tribe's current crop of lacrosse players appear to have come up against two immovable objects: the bureaucratic might of the Home Office and the US State Department. for more information click http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/why-the-tribe-who-invented-lacrosse-cant-play-it-here-2025986.html

SOCCER- FALL HARVEST TOURNAMENT.
This weekend of November 20,2010 and November 21,2010 i had a soccer tournament.We won second place. We had four games and we tied all four of them. The first game was 0-0, second game 0-0, third game 1-1, and last 0-0. It was very hard competition. In the third game I SHOT THE GOAL! I was very happy because i was the only in the team who scored this whole weekend. I was very happy but until I sprained my ankle. I sprained it by landing in the wrong part of the foot because a very big girl pushed me. I tried to shake the pain of but i just couldn't. It hurt so bad. MY AMAZING DAD.. went to the store and bought many things. He rapped my whole ankle to protect it. It hurt really bad but i was strong enough to not cry. Well my team and I.. plus the parents went out to eat before the game my dad carried me everywhere! It was kind of embarrassing but it was all worth it. I had to sit out for the next game but at least i supported them. I guess my support was not enough because we tied 0-0. It was time to go home. I didn't know what my mom would say. I know she would be very upset. So in the long ride home i was thinking about how she would react........ We finnally got home my mom was upset but she was happy it wasn't anything worse. Well I'm here doing my blog just wondering what i should do when i get to school.

NEPTUNE...
Neptune is our 8th planet in our universe. Neptune is like our big blue gas giants. The methane gas gives neptune its blue color. The green dark spot in the planet is a storm like the big dark red spot on Jupiter. Neptune is another name for Persuis the god of the sea. You can tell they have lots in common because the sea is blue and Neptune is blue as well.

THANKSGIVING
Thanksgiving is one of those holidays where you can spend lots of time with your family. Every Thanksgiving my family and I would invite some family over and cook many delicious things like turkey for dinner. While the moms or aunts cook and set up everything everybody else would enjoy watching football. After football we would usually do something fun. When it is dinner time everybody would thanks each other say grace and start eating as a family. This is why I really like Thanksgiving because we can always spend more time with our family, like talk more and learn things new.
