#121: Read a Novel

The Hunger Games. First one I read in full on my Kindle! The book is amazing and there are two more to come. Katniss reminds me of my sister, so I quickly told her about it and of course she has already read all three. The book is just excellent.

The movie is going to be released in mid March, but if you want to read the book before hand you can quickly go through it. I read the first in about three days. Really great stuff.

#326: Make a Basket in a Basketball Game (Instant Goal)

I got two. AND ONE WAS A THREE POINTER!!

It was the last day of school before vacation in the faculty vs. student game. It was a game-winning shot! The faculty was up by about twenty points, and after my three pointer they were up by twenty three. Game winning.

I proceeded to do the gayest dance around the gym after each basket. Especially the one from down town.

The fourth graders even made me signs!!

#17: See and Opera I Haven't Seen

Boston Lyric Opera gave me Peter Maxwell Davies' one act opera: The Lighthouse! Turned out I knew two people in the pit--small world!

The opera was excellent. English was good, so I didn't feel bad knowing very little about the work before hand. The pit was great, and the three men in the cast did a nice job. It was based off a true story or three lighthouse keepers who vanished!

No time to write, but it was good and this is done!
