#1-Birthday

My Birthday

Delish! Lime-flavored filling between the cake layers. Yum!

My mom did not want any of us messing up the living room, so she put this sign up. The symbol at the bottom means radioactive danger. She fibbed. There was no radioactivity at my party.

At the very end of my book, I mentioned how super cool and very different my eleventh birthday party was. (August 16.) It was a science party. If you think a science birthday party would be maximum nerdy, you’re just completely wrong! It was maximum, unstoppable fun!

We made fake snow by adding lots of water (the snow felt dry!) to this powdery plastic polymer material that is kind of like the stuff they put in diapers (ew!). We did all kinds of experiments where substances changed color with the addition of tiny drops of chemicals. We squirted one special kind of liquid (that we pre-colored) into a different special kind of liquid to make cool-looking plastic worms. I made a worm that was two feet long! Georgie made a worm moustache.

I taped this on Goon’s door. I thought she’d be upset. Actually, she liked it!

This went on Mom’s office door. She didn’t want any kids messing around her computer stuff.

Best of all was when we did the Mentos-in-soda experiment. Doesn’t everybody do that? We went into the back yard and put Mentos into a big bottle of soda and made a geyser shoot out. It was great! I was hoping it would rain soda down on Goon, but no such luck. Unfortunately, Mom forgot to take pictures of our geysers, so I checked on the internet. IMO, here’s the all-time greatest Mentos/soda experiment.

If you had a super cool and very different birthday party, please tell me and everyone else who reads this webpage all about it.

    But my stupid, stubborn little sister, says that I’m a bowl. Like how rude os that?
    I told her that she’s jealous that her birthday is not on Super Bowl Sunday. Her birthday is in 7 days but she doesn’t deserve it. I was accually born on Super Bowl Sunday. My mom says that while I was being born some kids came in and changed the channel to a kids channel.

        How this works:
        There’s a Christmas tree
        Under the tree is a present
        Under the present is celebrating
        Under the celebrating is more celebrating
        Under the celebrating is a iPod touch
        Under the iPod touch is a computer
        Under the computer is cd discs to your favorite songs
        Under the cds is an old fashioned tv.

        That is all what you got for Christmas
