Laser Tag

Today was Tristan’s birthday party. The party was at Laser Zone. Jasmine and Tristan were playing in the Thriller Zone so we joined them. There were three big slides, and I liked the middle one the best. I liked it because I felt safe and it looked the fastest. The thing that I liked the least was the rock wall that you had to climb to get up to the slides. I wasn’t very good at it. Laser Zone was a fun place so far, but I couldn’t wait until the cake and Laser Tag.

Finally it was time for Laser Tag. My code name was CC. JJ’s code name was…JJ. I wanted it to be boys against girls, but my sister was on the opposite team. It was me, Connie, Jasmine and Tristan for the green team. I was #04. My light blue shirt glowed, but my shoes were glowing so hard. It looked really cool. I wished I had worn darker clothes. We got huge and very heavy vests. The laser guns were attached to the vests. The laser gun was a two hand motion. I kind of liked that, because I could hold the gun steady and I was ready at all times. I was getting even more excited. The lady introduced us to our bases. There were huge obstacles that glowed. But that was good because you could hide behind them. She showed us how to get points. I was excited to start. Then a microphone said, “The game has begun”. I saw some red starting to come over. The green team was hiding and shooting people, so we were getting a lot of points. The first game we won. The second game I was braver to go over to the red base. When the thing said I was invincible, I went and got a couple five hundreds. Then, I saw JJ and shot her and shot her. Then my invincibility was terminated. I went back and recharged. This game we won again! I had a lot of fun, but there were only two games. Waa!

For lunch we had ONE slice of pizza. And the pizza was very small! We had a chocolate cake and we went to play games. I didn’t really like the cake. We each got six tokens to play games. I earned tickets, and with the tickets I got two tiny airplanes for prizes. Another fun thing we did is a train on the huge slide. We connected hands on the big slides. I liked to be the caboose because I didn’t have to worry about someone grasping on my shoulders. That was very fun too! The day was very fun. I really want to play laser tag again. I was bothering my mom with that sentence. I really want to play laser tag again!

Pool Party in Vicky's House

Yesterday I went to my best friend Jasmine’s house. It was a pool party. I was very excited because I hadn’t been to her house in a LONG time. We were playing around on the computers first. Luckily I brought my laptop. While we were playing, Vicky painted my sisters’ nails. When my sister was done, I wished I could have got my nails painted too. It wasn’t just a solid color it had very pretty designs on it. But before I could ask to get my nails painted, but Connie came and we started to play again. Playing was fun, but I really couldn’t wait until we got in the pool!

After lunch, we changed into our swim suits. I brought my blue one. I was the last one to go in the pool. I was scared that the water would be cold. I was going to dive off the board, but I got scared. Then my mom yelled, “Bryan, push her off!” Then I didn’t want that to happen so I screamed and dived off. The water wasn’t too cold. But I still shivered. Then Jasmine called out, “My dad is going to jump! Everyone get out of the pool!” I hopped out and Bryan dived. He only made a tiny splash. I was surprised.
Later, we started playing “Marco Polo”. At first I didn’t want to be “IT” but then Bryan got me. It was actually pretty fun. Then I got tagged right before mama came in the pool. I heard a splash and knew my mom got in. I started crying mama! Bryan kept on tapping on my back and I finally turned around and said, “I’m ONLY tagging my mom”. Finally I tagged her. When it was one of the kids, I liked to spray them. Once I was even brave enough to tap on Bryan’s foot when he was it. The adults liked to sacrifice me, but every single time I got away. I liked being it, so I purposely tried to be it. I had a strategy to catch Bryan. I would call Marco, and I would hear his low voice coming from the same place. I would reach the wall and I knew he pushes off diagonally, so I do that quickly. If I am fast enough, I will get him before I get to the other wall, but if I am not fast enough I get to the wall and push off horizontally. It was fun. At the very end of the day, my mom didn’t let me get my nails painted so I was mad. I really wanted them painted, not just a solid color. The rest of my day was really fun!
