Rock, Paper scissors. One of the most used games to solve an argument. I honestly use it all the time. When me and my dad play 1 0n 1 we go absolutely hard. Like to the point where we're going at each other. It's intense. I or he makes a bad call that he or I disagree with, Rock paper scissors is the way to end it. One round winner gets ball or if he made the basket, the basket now counts. Or the other way we end the fight we just do, do or die. Basically just you make the free throw you get the ball back. RPS also helps with getting a bed or not. When we go on basketball trips there is always the room of 3 with 2 beds, do the math only one person gets to sleep alone. So RSP helps us decide who gets to sleep by themselves while the losers sleep together. and or RSP games or draw the name out of the ice box get intense also.

Having ice cream in the summer is like hot chocolate in the winter, its awesome. Especially going to tickle berry’s on the way up to Kelowna for a snack is great. They have to best ice cream in the Okanagan. And even if it isn’t tickle berry ice cream, in the summer anything cold is great here. Especially if you’re playing basketball and you go into a pool right after or the river to refresh you, it feels great. Right now this weather has been great and it has been a hint of what we can expect this summer and it is crazy. I remember last summer I had these kids from Belgium stay at my house because they were going to NBN with me. It was awesome we played ball every day and went swimming and even climbed sandy on a 30+ day which was blazing hot but also fun. I also love the summer because every other year we go to stay in Italy about an hour away from Venice and live with my Grandma who has had a house there since she was a kid! It is great and so much fun. This summer is going to be a blast.

spring break

<My spring break a real awesome. The first week was pretty cool. on saturday I think I hopped on a plane to Vancouver to go to the well known DRIVE basketball camp. It was acutally really helpful and i enjoyed it very much. I stayed at my crazy Aunty Dianna and Uncle Doug's house. It was really fun. On wensday after camp we went to this indoor go-carting place in richmond and it was sick! Real fast but had alot of rules and the enforcers were really strict. Anyways on the last day I decided to go to camp 2 hours earlier (7 instead of 9) and the lady at the Oval wouldnt let me in! She said "it was to early" even though the damn thing was as open as a emergency room. So i pissed her off by tapping me feet really damn loud. Like really loud. after 45 minutes straight she finally said stop it so I mumbled about her loud enough so she could hear. It was a little disapointing but fun. The second week was epic. I came back from DRIVE friday night and had saturday and sunday to play some ball before I went to go see my favourite player in the game right now. On monday me and my mom drove to Spokane Was. to get on a plane to Portland Or. The big game was wensday and my mom wanted to go a day early so we had tuesday to go around town. The transit system was extremely cheap and simple. 3.50 for me and my mom to get from the airport to our hotel. It was called MAX. It was easy, and clean. We went to the biggest mall in the state and to PSU. The game was so fun lots of thunder fans and I had a great time. I talked to some people from BC (small world!) and they let me join them chear and junk. It was a sick game and was definatly worth it. Oh and also Sumeet went and I saw him. Haha it was a great time and I loved this spring break.

class list

This new post really never has affected me. My name for all of the time is said correctly. Its simple Austin so easy. Most people would be like well its your own name of course its easy but its not a rare unknown name also. Most substitutes usually say oh Austin sweet Austin Powers hahah but really in my head I just think oh funny guy eh ya its not funny at all big deal my name has the same thing as Austin Powers, or even Austin Texas. And I'm not being negative about it because i dislike my name its because it gets annoying. But i would change my and to be honest i didn't even have a name for my first weeks of live. Even ask Mrs. Pod she told me, she said one day when taking attendance did you know that it took your parents forever to name you and I didn't know that so i laughed. They were deciding it between Austin and Massimo and i would rather be Massimo Basso then Austin.

#winning


Getting more than 1 thing in a pop machine is cool, but how bout finding a way to "hack it or trick it. well thats what i figrued out. In Vancouver around Canada day my mom went to the pop machine. the diet coke was out so she pressed a sprite and out came a sprite but the money came out with it. so she came back and told me about it so i went to try it out and it worked all you had tro do was put the money in press diet coke then sprite or nestea (all the other ones didnt work) and it gave you the sprite or nestea with full money back so i came back to the hotel room with probably 10 cans of sprite and nestea and my family all laughed. but it was exicting the whole ride home we had sprite and iced tea to drink. Its really fun when a pop machine does it but I also rember watching on discovery channel that the stickers you sometimes see on the sides says don’t shake it and say you could die its true. There was a episode were the guys shook the machine so violently that it fell on him and he died.

Bubble wrap


Bubble wrap to me right now isn’t helpful.im not in use of it and I do t really care for it. It's only fun when you have it and right now I don't so it's really a dumb topic. When you do have it though it can be pretty fun and like the guy said it "Awesome". It can also be useful in packaging. About bubble wrap I got my Kevin Durant rookie autograph warped in it when it arrived. It was pretty awesome because Kevin Durant is my favorite player and I'm going to go watch him play in March. Also in march I'm going to an DRIVE ball camp before that and it going to be sick. But back to bubble wrap I have seen a video of this guy popping bubble wrap to a beat it was pretty cool, but also he must’ve been extremely bored. Bubble wrap is used in he song white and nerdy I would use the lyric but it's pretty bad. Bubble wrap would be cool if you could make a pit of it and jump of a high place into it. Bubble wrap is a hard topic to talk about  especially when your litening to music but oh well that’s 211 words anyways

Me


Hey  my name is Austin and I am turning 15. My favourite class is PE, because you get to do all the sports and I love to play them. My favourite sport is basketball I have been playing since I can rember because my dad got me involved young. My favourite basketball team is the OKC thunder because they are so fun to watch and I’m even going to watch them in march @ Portland!  I don’t like to read books because  they are not intriguing enough for me. I like to read sports biographies that’s pretty  much it. I’ve traveled to many places in the world mostly Europe because my grandma has a house there in Italy (the same one she grew up in!). I dislike the cold and love the heat so most summers we either go to Italy or just stay in the heat of Oliver! I love watching basketball I’ve been to a lot of NBA games including PHX,LA,BOS, and SEA. And in march like I said im going to watch OKC and POR.  I play some video games but only a couple because some are to stupid or just hard. I love to play nba 2k12 or when I was addicted to it MW2 (sadly).  The only thing I am interested in collecting is sports memorabilia such as autographs, posters , cards etc. mainly bball stuff but some football.  Also I hate it when people stare me or other people that they don’t know personally I find it creepy, when their  friends and it’s a joke its funny but other than that is stupid. I don’t like it when people make a charity case out of your injury or something else that happened I find it to be negative attention when most of the time they could care less. That’s all about me and im stoping here because i`ve gone over the limit.
