Fun With Paper Airplanes, and Some Introductions

I hope you all are enjoying this new blog of mine. Hopefully you've seen my blog on RySpace, and have taken part in the new contest. But seriously, enough about RySpace. Let's talk about me!

For starters, I'd like toshare my opinion on something; how many of you have seen that new TV show on ABC called "Crash Course"? Now, how many of you have seen that TV show on ABC called "Wipeout"? Both are very entertaining shows, but I have a bit of a problem with Crash Course. It seems very similar to Wipeout, in lots of ways; both are based on going through a series of obstacle courses that are treacherous, and cause the contestants to, dare I say, "Wipeout". It's a bit hard to explain, but I think those two shows have a lot in common- just see the shows, and find out yourself. The reason I have a problem with Crash Course, and not Wipeout, is that Wipeout came first, and it seems like the producers of Crash Course simply knew that a show based on obstacles like that made for good TV. I don't know.... just my opinion.

In other news, I yesterday was quite something. I meant to write about this yesterday, but didn't get around to it (I'll explain in a minute).
It started off at my grandparents' house. My little brothers and I were spending the afternoon there with my grandfather (also known as "Pa"), so my mom could take my cousin school shopping with my grandma (also known as "Gramma"). Before I left that morning, I decided I'd need something to occupy myself while with Pa, so I grabbed an old book I had laying around my room; The Klutz Book of Paper Airplanes. I figured it be fun to have some races, or something with my little brothers using paper airplanes, so I thought, "What the hey?".
So, we get there, and I start to make some planes, and eevryone seems to be interested in this. When I finally finish one, Pa, my cousin (Chloe), my brothers (Jack and Mike- did I mention they're twins?), and my mom all start to play around with it. That thing is flying around the house, getting stuck in window sills, on top of the frames of paintings and pictures- ahh, so much fun. I made two more for Jack and Mike, and we were making loops, and corkscrews, and everything! I don't know how long we did all that for, but one thing is for sure; It's amazing how much fun you can have with a piece of paper!

So, after all that shenanigans at my grandparents' house, we headed home.
Have you ever played manhunt? Ever heard of it.
Fun game.
My brothers, my neighbor (Jessica), about seven of our friends, and I all played manhunt that night.
For those of you who have never played manhunt, it's basically hide and seek, but all the people hiding have to try to get to a designated "base" without getting tagged by one of the "seekers". It's also usually played at night (playing this game during the day has been nicknamed by some of my friends as "Ladyhunt").
So, that's always a blast, especially when you play with a large group of people, like we did.

So, that's basically another day in the life of me (and my friends/family)! But what about you? I'd love to hear what you have to say about all- or any- of this! Just post a comment on this post, and either introduce yourself, or let me hear what's on your mind! I'll be sure to get back to you ASAP.

 Until next time!

Yours in awesomeness,
~Ry.
