    That's the main book I have to read for summer reading. It's an ok book to me so far, since I'm only like on page 100 or so, but there are some parts that are just..why is that in there?
     
    If you haven't read or heard about it, the story takes place in Afghanistan. As far as I know, it involves the friendship of 2 boys and their families. The main character is Amir and his friend is Hassan. The worst, sickest, and in my opinion, the most unnecessary part so far in this book has to be where Hassan gets..well let's say r'd by a bully, named Assef. When I read that I was like, "What kind of boy would do that to another boy? Doesn't that make him gay?" I don't care if it shows he thinks Hassan is absolute garbage compared to him, I think that a bully would have beat the crud out of him.
     
    I'm really beginning to dislike Amir where I am at right now in the book. He saw Hassan's incident and didn't even try to charge in and protect Hassan. Then he feels guilty whenever Hassan is around him and he tries to get Hassan out of the house since Hassan and his father are servants to Amir and his dad. Hassan and his dad eventually move out when Amir says that Hassan stole his watch and money, which is a complete lie since he planted it under Hassan's pillow. I'm thinking of Amir as a real sissy since he didn't even try to beat up Assef and his buddies. Sure Assef may have been bigger than him, but that didn't seem to scare Hassan. I mean, why wouldn't he just throw even one punch at Assef?
     
    Sometimes I hate the books teachers make us read. If I ever become an English Teacher, I would let students read comic books if they want to for summer reading. Much more easier to follow with all the pictures and not to mention, much more interesting with all the action.

    I don't the exact day we are going camping, but it's coming up soon. Might as well let people know why I'm gone now when they wonder why I'm gone later.
     
    I think we are going to Maine and Niagra Falls. This will be our 1st vacation where we travel the east part of the U.S. instead of going west like we have been doing recently in our past summer vacations.
     
    Here's some random things: I've been playing a lot of Metal Gear Solid 3 and I've been trying to write the new chapter of my comedy. I want to get the Stealth Camo and the Infinity face paint in MGS 3. The new chapter of my comedy has been coming along but..I don't know, sometimes I feel like I should do something else besides sit and type comedy chapters on my computer. It will get done sometime, that's what I know for sure. And no, sometime does not mean by the time you die
     
    Other than that, not much else going on for me.

    They are so awesome! I really love the infected masks and the jaw snapping function. I can't believe I've been missing this set for 9 years!
    They are just so fun!
     
    I got them from eBay for $50, which is not a bad deal since it's been used and they were originally $75 or $70. Unfortunately, they are missing some pieces, but not too many. I was able to build them completely except for the mask parts. So Muaka is complete but the Kane-Ra isn't because of the mask rod parts. A lot of the rubber bands that were sent were replacement ones that didn't even fit the sets, or some of them that broke too easily. Oh well, I still like them.

    Well, a few weeks ago I read a Hulk comic. I can't remember the title of the series right now (help me out Starparu ) but it's when Red Hulk and Red She-Hulk's origins are revealed. It turns out that Red Hulk is General Ross and Red She-Hulk is Betty Ross. but that was known since last comic. I figured Red Hulk used LMDs to make them think Ross was dead, but Betty's resurrection was kind of unexpected.
     
    Anyway, what's your favorite plot twist of any story?

    Of course, when I have summer break from school, that means that I have to work even more. I have to read 3 books before school starts (not doing a good job on that), do lots more chores than I would if school was in session like splitting firewood that is too big for our wood stove and putting on sealant over our blacktop, and football nearly everyday that seems to be eating my time. I've been wanting to write a new chapter for my comedy, but I haven't gotten that far on it. I still want to start on my Nuva project that I planned a long time ago. Oh what to do..
     
    So, what's everyone else up to? Can't respond to this because you're too busy doing something else? I understand perfectly. I would love to hear that somebody is doing more stuff than me, because even I know that what I have to do is not all that hard.
