Hello again! I have some interesting updates on my summer for you residents of this blog. The first update on summer happenings for me is that I got an awesome opportunity. I was able to go and see a rodeo. Ya, that’s right, one of those “cowboy rides a horse and ties up cows” rodeo. It didn’t start out so hot because it rainedand we didn’t bring anything for the rain because it was so hot that day. But then once the events actually started, the skies cleared up. The actual rodeo was pretty intense and there were people from all over the country at this rodeo to compete.
The next little update that I have for all of you is that as many of you know , “The Dark Knight”, the new batman movie, came out. Ya, this kid went and saw it. It may not be very exciting for some of you but for those of us who were looking forward to it, it was very exciting. I have to say that this movie was beyond good to me, the way everything happened was just spectacular and Heath Ledger played an awesome “Joker”. Alright, that’s all the updates I have for you guys and gals right now, I’ll blog to you later… O and less then a month until I’m back in the Haven…

Sing us a song…
Hello people of blog land allow me to tell you of what an awesome experience I recently had. I was hanging out in my living room when my sister tells me of this awesome thing that is happening in Hershey, Pa. What is happening, you ask? The man, the myth, the legend, Mr. Billy Joel is playing a concert in Hershey Stadium and she had tickets. I was super excited that I would be able to see one of the most excellent performers ever to play a piano.
So the day came and I could not wait to hear all the classics. I was so excited that I could barely stand the wait. When we got there we had to wait an extra 45minutes for the concert to start because as he explained he wanted it to be a little darker out, so he could set the mood. Man was that concert awesome, I was a little worried near the end of the concert because he had yet to sing “Piano Man”, which I was really looking forward to. But after he left the stage at the end of the concert he of course came back for an encore and played two more great songs, neither of which were “Piano Man”. At this point I was going to start throwing some punches as the band left and he was doing his last bows for the night. But of course he threw us a curve ball of awesome-ness when he quickly belted that classic out.
The night was amazing and I will never forget it. Until next time I talk you, just remember, it’s still rock n’ roll to me…
