does any one read my blog?

hello. i am just wondering if anyone reads my blog? or if i just post for my mother:) if you read my blog if you could just comment, then i will know if anyone reads. thanks!

finished with the rough draft of my first ever novel!

i am finished with the rough draft of my novel. it is the first one i have ever finished. but hopefully not the last. i may post it to read later, when i am finished.

on a different note, dad and i worked on his motorcycle the other day and finally got it running good. that was fun.for those that care the problem was in the carburetor. not sure if i spelled that right. spelling is not my strong point.:)

here are some picture of random things.

this is from the last tournament. i lost in the semi finals. that was sad.

this is one of the places i go mountain biking. Richard dared me to ride off of it. when i got close the the edge it crumbled. the reason i have a picture of it is that we were filming for a movie we are making.

OUR RUNNING TRAIL,

so here are some pictures of our running trail, not of the whole thing, only the end.

running +cobras=scary

well it happened like this. i was running peacefully along, when suddenly Richard (my friend who i was running with) jumped about crazily and yelled snake! i jumped over this long thick sausage like body, and turned around to see the cobra's head come up , and hiss at us. that was the end of the nice peaceful run, the last 4km were bad.we lost 2 minutes, and missed a best time. oh well.

Running

yesterday i went running with my friend. we did a mountain trail that is about 5 1/2 or 6 km long. our time was 24minutes and 44 seconds. i was trying a new running technique. next run we do is a 12km run. that is kind of long.

people are saying that there is another badminton tournament in a month or so. it has really big prizes. i am looking forward to that. i have been training hard. so maybe... if i play hard enough...

i am almost done with chapter 9 of my novel. that is cool.

here is what left of my cake... the energy that makes it so i can run. i like food.:)




here is some pictures of my dad flying.

Eagle lake

We got back from Eagle Lake on Saturday evening. we were there to celebrate my Grandpa and Grandma's 50th anniversary. we got there on Tuesday. Tuesday evening i went canoeing with my cousin Margret. we were having lots of fun until i decided i wanted to get off on the floating dock. getting off was no problem it was the jumping in that caused so much pain. anyway we ended up in freezing water (we are in Canada remember) with a sinking canoe. lots of fun. we got out ok. and we saved the canoe. if you think you have ever been cold you are right. oh i mean you have never been this cold. what was worse is 3 days later my cousin David made me go swimming in that very freezing water. i am sure i saw ice floating around.(just kidding) i stayed in for 10 minutes and when i got out i could not move i was so cold. i went and sat by a fire and after i warmed up a bit i started shivering a lot, as in i could hardly even sit. other things i enjoyed a little more would be:

• canoeing when i did not fall in
• hiking
  
• table tennis tournament (which i won)
  
• jumping on the trampoline
• shooting bows and arrows
• eating great

i am looking at my last blog and i did not say any thing about our trip. here it is.
we went to Indiana and stayed with some good friends. we stayed there 2 nights. we had lots of fun. then we went to Pennsylvania and stayed there a while. i don't know how long. while there i spoke to the teens of our church there. that was ok. i did not do well but hey who does on their first try? after that we went to Maine and stayed with my uncle and Aunt and all my cousins. that was fun too. we went back to Pennsylvania then we came home. i would put pictures but they are all on my moms computer.

Dirt Bikes, professionals, and other cool things

on Monday some people took us to Sandy Lands to dirt bike. we went on all kinds of cool trails, some if them very sandy. that was tons and tons of fun. when we got back to their house we went on a track. there where some huge jumps. i went on some of the smaller ones. that was fun!!! as in extremely cool!!! Awesome, and every thing along that line.

my dad cleaned out my computer and reinstalled every thing. this morning i thought i would do math. i turned on the computer and opened up my math. nothing..... tried again....nothing...again...nothing.... ahhhh!!! oh well no math today. oh no, how sad. sorry mom maybe tomorrow:)

yesterday we spent at the court. in the morning David Snider (the number 1 Canada singles player) asked me if i wanted to do some drills with him. that was cool!!! not many kids get to do that.

well maybe i should try to do some school even if i can't do math.

rafting, and other stuff.......i plan to put pictures on too.

yesterday we went to somebody's house for the afternoon. we had lots of fun. plus they had really really good food. while there we watched "Prince Caspian". that was cool.
My mom got an ipod yesterday. did i say the reason we were at peoples house is because my dad and mom went shopping? well that was the reason. so now we have and ipod. that is cool.

i sit here writing and listening to music. i wonder....how it would be to live in the same house all your life, to know the same people. to never see any thing except what is here. of all the strange things that would be strange.
for me life is not knowing and yet trusting. uncertainty is forgotten by faith. yesterday is a memory of another world, a distant land. A fairy tale? maybe. dwarfs and elves? i would not be surprised. yesterday is a smell, a sight, a feeling that comes back only when unexpected. yesterday is something i will never know for sure. tomorrow? i don't know. God does and i will leave it to him. today is something i have never known, something that shocks me and yet brings back memories of of other places where the joy was the same. today is a joy, a journey, a God who never fails. I'm so mixed up i don't know what is up or down. God keeps showing me things about him and about my self. up or down doesn't matter any more, only he does. following him and getting to know him more is all that matters now. every thing may be new yet he stays the same. so worry is forgotten in the joy that overwhelms. i have peace in him. so why worry?

wow i just said a lot!!!! when i start writing i can't quit can i? so if you totoly got lost on what i was saying, it was just every thing that goes through my head. so now you know what i think about:)

kaleb and i made a raft and went rafting down the dich

our fort a long time ago before it turned to water:)

bike

one thing i forgot to say last time is that i got a bike!!! yea!!! if you don't already understand, i am very excited!!!
my mom is going to a concert this evening. i hope maybe i can go to the court while she is there. unfortunately i don't think it will work. oh well.

i just finished writing 2 more stories. now just editing.... or torture which ever you would rather.

we just found out that training here is over. to bad...to sad......I'm not glad....I'm just a lad....I'm not that mad..... its not a fad....or an add for that matter.....i think i lost my mind....will you help me to find?.....it would be kind....yikes I'm going insane.
maybe now you know why my mom some times gets headaches. but if you were to listen to Kaleb you would under why my head always hurts. (just joking Kaleb)
Kaleb broke a racket the other day in training. only the 3rd.




well now i am going to go eat because I'm hungry. that would be the reason i eat wouldn't it? man talking is so much work... i can say things so many wrong ways.

having not written in a long time

well I guess i have not written in years. Maybe not years, but you get what i mean. i have tried and tried to post but something happened on my computer because i could not. it has gotten a lot warmer since i wrote last. today is 0 degrees. i think. it was 15 a couple days ago. it did not stay.
i am not totally sure what i should say, lots of things have happened. i got a 2 day job at a turkey farm a week or so ago. i worked from about 2 till 4:30. that was cool. mmmmmmmm........ and i started carving a little man.
i finished writing another story. i am going to send it to some writer dude to look at. we went to somebody's cabin for a day, we drove a quad and a snowmobile. that was fun.

i got stuck with the snowmobile, one trucks got stuck and one of the quads got stuck and the other quad got a broken track. that made it even more fun!!!
to get to the cabin we drove on a frozen lake. that was awesome.

Words hide their meaning,

The false smile disguises pain,

Anger covers a broken heart,

But joy can never hide.

Smile. I hope they understand what I want it to mean. Hope they understand. Talk to them….. NO WAY!!! Why would I tell them? So I wait… hoping somebody tells them. But we have the gift of life so why do I sit smiling and hoping? Fear. Fear of people, fear of myself, that I won’t say the right thing. Is it courage I need, or faith and trust? Faith in the fact that He is stronger in me than he that is in the world, trusting He will give me the words to speak when the time comes. That is the courage that I need.

Moose hockey game and other stuff about something

on Saturday somebody gave us tickets to a hockey game. we had the best seats ever. It was really fun. My first ever hockey game! i have a cold today. a nasty cruel mean cold who for the sake of torture lives. he or it loves torture but i like getting rid of it. there is another tournament in 2 weeks.


on my last post i posted a video but it was not the one i wanted so here is the one i meant to put on.























they don't really understand what they talking about, if they did they would not say such silly things. science they say. were they there in the beginning? did they see it? so they believe some dude who says he knows every thing. if they have faith in a human dude that fails every day why don't they think the truth is true? why is faith in a human guy who is stuck up and self filled so much better then faith in a God who proves himself every day? humans always fail you will find, but God never does. the dude who knows every thing knows only what he wants to know. he might have found the truth but it was hard so he made up what he thinks is easy but what is really death. they fell to the trap.

others say it can't happen but they say they believe in God. if they really believe they would believe that he can do every thing, he is God after all! they saw but they did not believe, they heard but they did not believe.
