Lots of Christmasy Goodness!

This is my... Graham Cracker Hut!  Talk about a Gingerbread House! 

This is my vegetable tree... just not as realistic as the one below. 

This is our Christmas tree, which is not a real tree, but it is still our "tree". 

Here I am, plugging in one of my presents to my tablet;  A Micro USB to Regular USB Mini-Wire! 

This is a snowman, but I made an in-perfect spiraling ramp-way up the snowman, starting from the snow on the ground and up to the top of the snowman! 

My own Glass Paperweight That I Made, and The Elf On the Shelf!

 I am making a glass paperweight. 

 Here I am thinning the rest of the glass from my paperweight.  I like having one.  I was also afraid that I would get burned.  I was glad the instructor was helping me. 

 Festari, my Elf on the Shelf, will be coming...

Like this! 

Gillette Castle and K'nex

 This was at the Gillette Castle, which was owned by Mr. Gillette.  It is a huge house (well, nowadays museum), and has a building that can tell you some other stuff about it.  There are also refreshments. 

 Here is another picture of Gillette castle, in the same room. 

I had a K'nex set, which was called the Screamin' Serpent.  It came with sound effects, and also a conveyor belt that is moved by a motor.  The sound effects go whenever the rollercoaster passes by. 

NaNoWriMo, Children's Museum of New Hampshire, Enterprise City, and the Fact That Christmas is Almost Here!

 

 I participated in NaNoWriMo, and I got an award for that, so yay! 

 I blocked all the blue balls from passing through the glass (maybe plastic, I forget though). 

A two-floored car with a back-up car!  I guess that the only disadvantage is that its back-up car has no windows, a roof, or even walls! 

 It is a gear mechanism.  It even works, and it takes a turn, as you can maybe see. 

 This is the computer world of Enterprise City.  It is called...  the Awesome Technology Center of Enterprise City. 

 ASAR Creations indeed...  and the advertisement by me!  This was also at Enterprise City. 

It's almost Christmas time!  The tree is set up, the stocking are hung, and the presents are getting prepared. 

Turkey Here, Turkey There, Turkey Here and Everywhere!

Buck buck, buck buck buck!  I made this turkey, which is made entirely out of vegetables (besides some toothpicks, which were put there to hold up some of the face bits.). 

Here are some colored turkeys that look like Easter eggs!  The below pictures are also images of those turkeys. 

My Tablet

I have had a tablet for a bit, and I like having it.  You can play games on it, have guest modes on it, have a calendar on it, have it work like a universal remote, do research on it, have it work as an alarm clock, use it as a camera, have lots of options for cool backgrounds, have it tell the weather in several places (and also give weather alerts), have it give notifications, have its clock do either do 13:00 or 1:00, have the apps be in folders with names of your choice, plug headphones into it, plug a mini USB cable into it, insert an SD card into it, and lots more! 

Hurricane Sandy + Snow = Disaster for New Jersey

There was a lot of snow (there's still some), and for a good reason.  Yesterday it was about 17 degrees out at around 5:45 PM.  It has, fortunately, stopped snowing, but I bet it's still cold out.  In New Jersey, some people are still out of power from Hurricane Sandy, but this just adds to the horror of it all for them.  It might also delay their power turning back on.  They might not have power for quite a while, which is too bad. 

My Hair, a Decorated Pumpkin, and an Eiffel Tower

 This is me... never mind the hairstyle!  You see, the electricity made my hairstyle.  I call it the Up-With-the-Hair hairstyle.  That is a Van De Graaff generator in the background.  It looks like a silver sphere on a stick. 

 This is a pumpkin that I half decorated.  My mom decorated the other half.  I think it looks good. 

 Even the back is decorated, as you can see. 

Bonjour(Hello)!  I am the Eiffel Tower, and I am four-sided!  Au revoir(Good bye)! 

The Blaze and the Celebration at Washington Irving's Property

  This is from a celebration at Washington Irving's house.  Washington Irving was the author of the book called The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.  In the picture below, also from the celebration, a mime has caught me, when he meant to catch a fake butterfly he was holding!  I think he's funny. 

 This actual scene and the ones below it are all made of pumpkins.  Some of the pictures have designs that I liked.  These were at the blaze. 

 This is pumpkin Big Ben! 

Yes, there are pumpkin-in-the-pumpkin-boxes out there!  Just like this one here.  

The Hueblein Tower, Dead Fish with Shells on the Side, and a Fancy Style of TV

 This is at the Hueblein tower, after I walked all the way up the trail.  you see that background?  I walked most of that distance from that ground in the top of the image. 

 These are shells at the Hartford old state house of Connecticut.  There are two old state houses, one in New Haven and one in Hartford.  These shells and fish are real! 

This is a new type of TV that I think looks fancy.  It was also in the old state house in Hartford.  I also like the pole that it is on, especially since it has a platform you can put stuff on. 

Houses, Corn Mazes, and Chocolate Bowls!

I was at a corn maze, since it is fall.  The plant in the background is corn.  We did the big maze. 

 This is a dessert in a chocolate bowl, so you eat a bowl... and not have a hard time at all! 

This is a fancy house that we saw on an architecture tour that we did.  I think it looks neat, especially considering that it is very old. 

My Friend and I at a Mathnasium Math Contest

I tied for first with my friend, Aresh, in a math competition.  I got second, because of a tie-breaker with him, and he got first.  I think they should always have a back-up medal (they are made of real metal!).  I really doubt that they are real silver and gold metals, but it is still obviously metal, which I think is cool. 

It was a surprise meeting my friend, Aresh, even though he is extremely good at math and is probably going to a lot of math competitions.  He is very friendly, and yet that is only partly why I like him.  I also like him because I can discuss math subjects with him and he would understand.  We are almost at the same grade in math. 

Aunt Sarah's Garage Sale

This is at Aunt Sarah's house.  It is a garage sale!  I'm the person in the right corner.  I got to sell two different types of lemonade, for 25 cents, as well as small popcorn bags for 25 cents, and big popcorn and pretzel bags for 75 cents.  I did well earning money, earning about $5.50 in profits. 

The Big E and a Picture

 This is a cool trick that these ladies did at the Big E a few days ago. 

 When I saw these flexible mirrors, I thought, "how do they move the bends in the mirror?!".  This is also from the Big E. 

This is a neat picture that I thought I'd show you.  I think it was taken by accident, but I thought it looked cool.
