Rock Paper Scissors


Rock paper scissors is undoubtedly one of the best ways to make decisions that are hard and not too important. The only thing that I can think of that comes close to that is flipping a coin. Flipping a coin is pretty good but you don’t always have a coin so rock paper scissors is still better. I’ve had a few times that we couldn’t decide what to do so we relied on rock paper scissors. Mostly deciding on where to go for dinner or what to watch on TV. Sometimes its decisions that are much more important than that, or to me at least. I think that a pretty important decision that I’ve made with rock paper is what airsoft gun I get and which one my brother gets. If you get the one that you have to reload after every shot then you tend to get shot a lot more often than if you have a gun where you can just keep on shooting. Usually I lose and end up with the gun that doesn’t work that great. I get shot a lot. Rock paper scissors isn’t exactly my forte. Actually I’m not very good at any type of game of chance. I have bad luck when it comes to games. Oh well. Doesn’t matter. Thank you for reading. Bye.

Summer


In my opinion the summer doesn’t have one part that is the best so I’ll tell you about just one of my favorites. Camping. That is probably one of my very favorite things to do in the summer because you get to do more than just one thing. You can go fishing, ride your bike, go swimming, buy ice cream at the campground store, or just hang up your hammock and relax. There are so many different things to do when you go camping and so many places to go. My favorite place to go is Wanacut Lake up in the mountains about 45 minutes from Orville. It’s a really nice campsite where you can do lots of these different summer things. Even though it’s not quite summer yet we go to Wanacut Lake every year on the May long weekend. Its lots of fun, but the drive isn’t. But hey driving is never fun unless you’re on a race track or something. It’s also more fun if you’re the one driving. I’ve never got to drive on public roads or anything. I have however gotten to drive a little bit around the house and to the end of our road to get the mail or whatever. Ok right back to camping. Wanacut Lake isn’t the only place we go camping but it is my favorite. All in all camping is my favorite summer activity and I think it’s the favorite summer activity of a lot of other people too. Thanks for reading. Talk to you later.

My Awsome Spring Break


On my spring break I did lots of different and fun activities, but to explain my whole spring break would take way too long so I'm just going to sum it up in a couple hundred words. Here we go. On the first weekend of spring break we went to Mt baldy and skied for the weekend. On Saturday my mom went to Kelowna and picked up my cousins (Connell and Kingsley) who live in Armstrong. My uncle drove them to Kelowna and my mom drove them the rest of the way to Mt Baldy. We skied till Monday and went down to our house Tuesday morning. Sometime that day we ended up talking about rock climbing somehow and we decided that’s what we were going to do the next day. The only problem with this otherwise great idea was that we only had one harness. So we looked around and found some webbing that we could make a harness out of. Once we had the pieces cut to the proper lengths we started sewing them together with the strongest thread we could find which just happened to be dental floss (No joke). After a few hours of sewing we had a harness that actually looked pretty good. The next morning we went rock climbing with it and it worked fairly well. The one thing that was wrong with it was that it wasn’t very comfortable. Well that’s what I was told because I got to use the fancy store bought one. Me and Connell spent the rest of the week climbing various cliff faces and such. It was fun. Connell and Kingsley left that Sunday because they had to go back to school. Their spring break started a week before ours. I spent the next week just hanging out and climbing with my brother. On the last weekend of spring break we went up to Mt Baldy again. We entered in the cardboard box race on Saturday and we didn’t win anything but it was still fun. On Sunday I entered in the slush cup and that was really fun. I got pretty wet but I’m still going to go in it next year. After that we went home and got ready for school the next day. Well that pretty much sums up my spring break and it was definitely one that went by way too fast.

Thanks for reading.

My Name

My name is Foster Kane and I like it. Its kind of an unusual name but i still like it. The only time when I don't think my name is so great is when people misread it and call me Forest. I politely correct them but inside i just wanna yell. That is not my name! I dislike the name forest. I don't know why but it just doesn't sound that good to me. It also annoys me a little when people yell, run Forest run. thankfully people don't get my name wrong too often.That would be ridiculous because its not that hard of a name to pronounce. My name has led to me having a few nicknames some i like such as Fozyosborne,and some of which I'm not to fond of such as Fozywozy which is what my mom calls me on occasion. I don't like it when she does that. Usually she only does it to annoy me or embarrass me. Even with my mom doing that I still like my name because when you say it right it sounds pretty good and its pretty darn original too. Darn that's only 192 words and i need 200 so ill just fill in the space with a few words of my choice. Here we go, Goat, sandwich, upside down, television.There, that should do it. I hope you liked my words and the rest too i guess. Thanks for reading.

Getting 2 Things From a Vending Machine for the Price of One

Getting two things from a vending machine when your only expecting one is great.  It's like losing a ten and finding a twenty or expecting a toy truck on Christmas and getting a luxury sports car.  You just cant help but smile.  Then there's the opposite of it which is when you put in your money and then you press F3 and the coils turn but your candy just hangs on the edge and you wait for it to fall but it doesn't.  Next thing you know your pounding on the glass and trying to tilt the machine so you can have your candy.  But I'd say that about 90 percent of the time all that shaking and pounding doesn't help at all.  What a devastation!  And then there's all those people who claim they can "Hack" the machines and get more than they're supposed to. Most of the time these people are just full of hot air and haven't even actually tried these "Hacks". Well at least that's my opinion because I tried a couple just to see if they worked but they didn't.  Its probably better just to leave it to chance anyway. Its kinda like cheating if you Find something that actually does work and you use it.

200 words or so on bubble wrap and whatever else I go off topic onto

When I was little I guess I liked popping bubble wrap but I couldn't get it to pop a lot of the time so I would use a rolling pin to pop the bubbles. I would of rather had the box it came in instead though because I loved building stuff. I still do. I remember when I was in beavers,which is like scouts for little kids. Every year we would do a camp in a box with a bunch of other beaver groups.Each year there would be a different theme and each person would make a house out of boxes to sleep in and I remember wanting to make a two story box house but thinking it would be to hard. I never did make a two story box house but I did make some pretty cool box houses. Building stuff is just my kind of thing. That's why my best classes are shops. They're the only classes that I can get A's in without struggling too much because that's the kind of mind I have. Building and problem solving, not exactly socials and English.but I figure that I can probably get straight A's if I really try hard and that's what I want to do. The reason is that my mom made a deal with me that if i got straight A's for two semesters in a row starting this semester she'd buy me a truck. I really want a truck! Well that's all I can think to say for now so talk to you later. Thanks.

Hi.My name is Foster Edward Lorne Kane. I was born in Edmonton on April 27 1997. When i was like two i moved to Calgary then i moved again when i was almost 4. That time we moved to Oliver and we've lived here since. I learned to ski when i was little and now its one of my favourite sports along with hunting and dirt biking. A few things on my bucket list are go Helli skiing, go skydiving, get my bush pilots licence and set a Guinness world record. My favourite food is beef jerky and my favourite TV channel is Discovery. my favourite drink is coca cola and I think it tastes way better in glass bottles.My best classes are shop classes because they're so easy. See how i used the right they're there and there and there... well you get the point. Anyway. I have one brother and one sister. They fight a lot! My dad is a vineyard and winery owner and a wine maker. My mom is a doctor. I've been on quite a few trip and they've all been fun. I've been to Mexico twice and i don't really remember the first time that well because i was really little but the second time was only a couple years ago so i remember it really well. It was fun. We stopped at my uncles in Texas on the way there then we flew to Oaxaca city and stayed there for two weeks taking Spanish lessons. Then we took this bus along this really twisty road to the beach and my dad got super car sick but i felt fine which is weird because i usually get more car sick than anyone else. We stayed there for two weeks then flew back to Oaxaca because my dad did not want to take the bus! From Oaxaca we flew back home. Ive been to Disney land a few times and that's really fun especially the roller coasters. Anyway I really like travelling. that about sums up my first blog assignment. Thanks for reading!:)
