Friend of Bo?

Perhaps something too fast?

Tonight when I sat behind the computer, I saw that aunt Suus from Cananda had send me a very cute picture! He seems indeed a bit like Bo, only I hope that Dad will not drive that fast as the owner of that doggie, when Bo comes along in the car. Aunt Suus this really is a very cute pic, thanks for sending it to me!

Yes, I’ve got it!

My new saxophone...

This afternoon at my music lessons I got my saxophone. It’s beautiful man! Playing it is so great! It only was a bit strange to play because a saxophone has a straw to blow in that is quite different from the trumpet. But I love it, it’s so cool man!

The teacher has showed me entirely how I must clean the saxophone every time when I played it. Than there is a small piece of leather on a string that I’ve to pull through the whole saxophone a couple of times. I only have to buy myself the little straws for the mouth piece but that is not very expensive the teacher said, only they break, however, fast.

To day at school was my lucky day. This afternoon we had to help the teacher by getting some new desks from the lorry and get them into the school. The school ordered 21 new desks but the people from the factory delivered 32 desks, much too much and the people who brought them didn’t want to take them back to de factory. Then the teacher asked if one of us just wanted one of those desks. I told the teacher that I directly could call my Mom and ask her if it was oke, something like that I can’t let that pass a way. Mom approved and so I had a beautiful new desk. Also Mark succeeded in getting one. Mark’s father came by and picked us up and brought my desk to our house and now it’s standing in my room, so cool man! I’m so very glad with it!

Go upstairs.... bye … see you tomorrow!

New sweat jacket!

A beautiful sweat jacket eh?

Yesterday there was an advertisement in the newspaper from the sport shop here in our village. In that ad was a very cool sweat jacket from the brand Russell on sale from $105,- for $ 26,-.

Tonight after dinner we went to the shop just to see what the offer was. They were cool man! I have bought 2 of them, a red one and a dark blue one. Here above at the photo I’m wearing on, cool he?

Go and play outside at the square for awhile, everyone is still outside.... bye...see you tomorrow!

Playing outside, playing outside!

Bo is tired, so very tired........

Today the weather was splendid and so Bo played outside in the garden the entire day. Man he was so busy!

This afternoon when I came home from school Bo was already running in the garden. Later on this afternoon I played soccer at the square in front of our home and also Bo came along.

Tonight when we had dinner, Bo immediately fell asleep on the sofa. It just turned 8.30PM but he is still asleep… Man, playing outside is a hard job….

Go to bed....bye… see you tomorrow!

Homework!

History paper for tomorrow….

This afternoon, after a little game with Bo of course, I started to do my homework. Tomorrow we are having a history test concerning World War 2.

• When did Germany invade the Netherlands?
• When did Hitler get a thorough grasp?
• When was February strike?
• When did the NSB arise and by who?
  

And much more questions we all have to know by tomorrow…...... Is there someone out there who knows the answer to these questions?

I go to bed.... bye… see you tomorrow!

School musical!

Cd with on it the songs of the farewell musical.....

Today at school we got the CD with all the songs on it for the farewell musical.

All those songs we have to learn and there are many of them, very, very many songs to learn, 25 numbers! The musical is called Take Off and is all about an airport. Well that means a lot of studying to do! But fortunately we have enough time to learn them all, the musical will be in the last school week and that is in July.

This afternoon I immediately have put all of those numbers on my iPod this way can I learn them much easier.

Go and listen some music now…. bye… see you tomorrow!

My iPod!

The iPod nano....

Yesterday morning we went out of bed pretty early because there was at the V&D a prices circus (a very big sale). There they had a very beautiful offer of the iPod nano which I wanted so badly for so long.

At 7.55AM yesterday morning we were standing in front op de doors of the V&D and when the doors were opened we immediately went to the department were they sold the iPods. Man there already was a very big line of people who also wanted the iPod. We were in that line for more over than 30 minutes before we were served at the counter. But fortunately they still had one iPod for me left….

Man it really is such a cool thing! But the nicest thing is that you can put so much music on it. That is what Mark and I did this afternoon, putting the music on it. It is an expensive thing and I had to save my money for months but now I’ve got it and it’s so very, very cool!

Go and listen to my new music now… bye… see you tomorrow!

Soccer!

A little game of soccer on the square.... Click on the photograph and see how Bo every time plays the ball....

This afternoon we played a nice game of soccer on the little square in front of our door.

Bo loved to play soccer again. In the short film under the photograph we are playing soccer with a couple kids from our street. Later on Justin from my class came by and he thought he could easily take the ball from Bo… but pretty soon he said: “Man that dog is so fast!” Justin fell down on the street and Bo continues to play the ball…. So cool man!

Bo is now entirely worn-out and fell asleep on the sofa…. But he is a very, very great soccer player!

Go and watch some TV now….. see you tomorrow!

Bye, bye trumpet.........

My trumpet.....

Tonight when I went to my trumpet lesson I had to tell the teacher that I can’t play my trumpet anymore because of my new teeth brace.

The teeth brace is not placed normally right in my mouth the orthodontist placed it a bit crooked in my mouth because it has to push the eyetooth just between the other teeth so because of that I can’t play my trumpet anymore. The mouth piece of my trumpet pushes the wire of my brace away and that is not very nice.

So I asked Bob my teacher if it’s possible that I go and play the saxophone. The mouth piece of the saxophone is not on your lips but goes into your mouth that will be much better than.

Last week when we had the performance with the band there was a saxophone which I tried to play and that really played so great. Bob saw and understood quite well what the problem is and thinks it’s a great idea and he will see what he can do for me next week.















Yeeeh.. just waiting for my brace to come out isn’t an option, that will last there for at least 2 ½ years. Hope that the teacher will help me to change to another instrument and that he has a saxophone available so I can continue my music lessons…..

Go to bed... bye… see you tomorrow!

Eating is not nice now!

Will he have as much pain as I do!

Last night I couldn’t sleep caused by the pain..... I woke up so many times just from the pain in my mouth all caused by the new teeth brace.

So when I came out of bed I was very tired and was in so much pain. This morning I couldn’t chew at all. So I stayed home from school for a day and spend the entire day on the sofa in front of the TV. From time to time mom came along with a nice plate with some food. I just look like a baby again mom had made all the food very fine and some was almost liquid.... ridiculous but it had to be this way today.

Tonight mom had made a very deliciously fish dish from the oven with cheese all over it, man that was very nice I didn’t have to chew it at all. Hope the pain will disappear very rapidly because this is so awful! Baby food….....bbbbrrr....

Go upstairs... bye…. see you tomorrow!

Brace!

Bahhhhhh... that hurts man!

This afternoon I went to the orthodontist again and I got my brace. In the beginning it went rather well, however, when we had dinner the pain started. Chewing hurts so much man! I couldn’t eat my meat tonight.

I’m not feeling very well, just got to bed now…. bye… see you tomorrow!

Tennis ball!

Found a tennis ball….... Click on the photo to see how much Bo liked the ball!

This afternoon I found a tennis ball just out on the street. I thought of Bo immediately when I saw it, that had to be something very cool for him to play with!

Well, Bo loved it! Mark and I threw away the ball all the time and Bo had to catch it. On the small film behind the photo you can see that we showed Bo the new ball. He couldn’t wait to catch it and yes he finally got it! When he got it he wouldn’t let it go.

Finally we had to hide the ball because he became so tired by it, he was so warm! His tongue was almost hanging on the floor!

After that game we went to my room and we sat down behind the play station, also Bo came along that was very companionable!

Bo is playing so nicely with his rope....

Go upstairs.... bye…. see you tomorrow!

Playing with Bo!

Here is Bo eating a nice doggie biscuit....

Click on the photo and you can see Bo and me playing….

Bo likes to play with his long rope. But after awhile he grabs the Waf, his stuffed animal from the dinner table and goes on playing with that!

Performance with the Band!

This is the opening of the show... I am the second blue jeans one on the left side.

This morning I had to be at the municipal house (The Olm) at 11.30 AM just to prepare everything for the show this afternoon. At first we had to put all attributes ready for the performance and after that Michel and I went to the entrance of the municipal house and we took place behind the desk to sell all the tickets to the public. Later on Casper helped me to sell the tickets.

Selling the tickets to the public with Casper …..

At 2 o'clock we went to the stage to open the show. Afterwards there was a performance of the ballet school and a performance of the color guards. After that it was our turn to do our job. We played a few beautiful parts.

I am again the second blue jeans on the left side …

It really went fantastic, really so cool man! We also went on stage to close the show and that was great… everyone applauded very hard!

Here is everyone applauding for us…...

Afterwards there was a photographer who took photos of the entire band and later on he made photos of everyone separately.

Here we are standing ready for the photographer to take his photos and so did Mom take her photo, great eh?

I must stop blogging now because I have to go. I’m having dinner with the band in our club house tonight….bye… see you tomorrow!

Click on the photo see a little film!

Oysters!

Roy eating a raw oyster......

This afternoon Roy and Kim came over because uncle Ruud had to go away this weekend. Mom was in the kitchen all afternoon because we had the neighbors’ dinner club tonight and it was Mom’s turn to cook.

Roy loves it when Mom is in the kitchen cooking ….When he waits long enough there is always a little change he will get something…. Today the oysters were on the menu. Nobody of us had ever eaten hose things. Roy was the first who, however, who dared to taste one. Well he didn’t think much of it, there wasn’t much to taste, the oysters were just salty….

For the neighbors dinner club Mom had cooked the oysters in the oven with herbs butter and some cheese..... But also this way I did not really like them… Everyone did try the oysters but me.....no I didn’t... But further on dinner tonight was really delicious, especially the Spoom, champagne with cranberry ice-cream… that really was so cool man! It was a very nice evening and we had a delicious dinner!

Go to bed.... bye…. see you tomorrow!

Couldn’t play the trumpet today !

Bo looking for his ball…

This afternoon Bo played with his ball in the garden again. He loves it when you hide the ball and he has to look for it. Here at the photo he just found it but can’t get it out of the plant, it’s very deep in the bush. But he goes on trying to get it as long as it takes and finally he always succeeds, sometimes he has to jump in the plant but that doesn’t mind him at all!

This afternoon I’ve been to my trumpet lessons, but that wasn’t very successful. I couldn’t blow in the trumpet at all, man what did that hurt in my mouth. Yesterday I had 2 tooth got out by the dentist because of the tooth brace I’ll get next week. It didn’t hurt all day but playing my trumpet wasn’t feeling very nice, it wasn’t possible to play today. That is in fact isn’t a good time right now, now I’m missing the last lessons before the performance were having next Sunday here in our village in the municipal house.....

Tonight there will be the last lessons with the whole band but I nevertheless won’t play there but I have to go and watch just to see what the teacher will tell us about next Sunday. So I won’t play tonight, that’s a pity… next time better…

Must stop now it’s almost 07.00 PM and the lesson will start in a few minutes….. bye… see you tomorrow!

Bad day!

My teeth……

This afternoon I went to dentist to let 2 teeth out. I don’t have enough space in my mouth for all my teeth and for this reason I had to have them out. Next week I have to go to the orthodontist again, than I’ll get my tooth brace.

Getting those teeth out didn’t hurt but after that I couldn’t talk for an hour and I had a lot of bandages in my mouth against bleeding, it wasn’t nice at all….

Go to bed....bye…see you tomorrow!

Outside again!

Bo is having fun!

Today the weather was very nice again; today it was really warm man! I played outside at the school yard all afternoon. Also Bo was outside in our garden all day…..... man it really seems like summer over here!

I don’t have anything more to say about today………go to bed....bye…. see you tomorrow!

Bo playing outside!

Bo gives his ball to Timmie....

Today the weather was nice again! So Timmie was in his summer rabbit hutch the entire afternoon and Bo played the entire afternoon in the garden.

Bo loved it and was running around all the time and played with his ball. Every time he gave the ball to Timmie, but Timmie couldn’t catch it because the wire netting was between them.

Running with the ball...



Just resting.....

Bo is very tired and is asleep now, playing outside is a hard job!

Go upstairs...bye... see you tomorrow!

Busy across the bowling!

All fire brigades, ambulances, police cars and funeral cars just across the bowling centre......

This afternoon when we went to the bowling we saw that it was very busy across the road near the railway. On the radio we had already heard that a man with his 2 children had jumped in front of the coming train…. bbbbrrrr..... Inside the bowling centre there were all photographers from the press and fire men.

Julien and Brenda from the bowling had seen the train when they arrived at the bowling, and it was entirely full with blood.... ooohhh.... man it really was terrible! Tonight on the TV they were talking all about it and so I heard the mayor of Haarlem also was in the bowling centre just to talk to the press, and that all when I was bowling in the same building! Well I didn’t see him there….

Go to bed... bye… see you tomorrow!

Great time in the forest!

Bo loved the forest….

This morning I had a bowling tournament again, today it was in Haarlem. Today I had my day and it went very well, I threw high games but it all wasn’t enough to get in the finals. I became 9th...... that was a pity, but it was a nice game!

After the bowling we have been with Bo to the Spaarnwouder forest. Just had a nice walk with Bo in the sun, the weather was very nice today! Bo loved it all. Especially the dogs it didn’t matter if they were small or big, he liked them all.

Tonight I worked on my essay again I have to hand it in next Tuesday...... This one was very difficulty, it was the most difficult one I’ve ever made, it’s about Saddam Hussein. Man what a nasty man that was! He did things man that really isn’t normal at all! I didn’t finish the books about him; they were so hard to read, so horrible. That man has really assassinated thousands of people in very nasty ways. No... really I became sick of reading those books concerning him. Still I finished the essay and I’m so happy that it’s all over now and it nevertheless became a beautiful essay. (hope the teacher thinks so too!)

Go to bed....bye… see you tomorrow!

Schoolbowling finals!

Franka Patrick and Justin at the winner’s platform!

This morning we left home at about 11.15AM to go to the bowling in Schiedam for the school bowling finals. At 12.45PM we were ready with our 3 school teams to start the game.

Here is Franka throwing here ball...

I did not start this game very nice, also Mark and Romay did not play as they did in the trainings last week. We didn’t make it to the last finals.

Also our 3^rd team from our school, the Kingpins with Thomas, Fanny and Moniek didn’t obtained enough points to get there. But the Masters of Bowling with Franka, Patrick and Justin, made it and they played a pretty good final. They became 3^rd ..., 3^rd of all the Netherlands, which is so cool man!

Waiting for the prize distribution.... do you see the cup that is for the ones who won the first prize, isn’t that big?

The triple X became 26^th, well 26^th isn’t to bad is it, 26^th of all of the Netherlands?

Go and have some dinner now…bye… see you tomorrow!

Tomorrow the finals!

Tomorrow the finals!

Tomorrow at last there will be the school bowling finals and the Triple X is going to Schiedam! Woooouuuw... can’t wait, it’s so exciting!

Tomorrow morning before we go to Schiedam I’ll go to my bowling club just fore half an hour and do some training and after that at about 11.00AM we’ll go Schiedam. There we have to check in at 12.15PM. Here on this site you can see the list of the participants, we (Triple XXX) have to be ready to throw our balls at 12.45PM. We’re the number 2 in our series and we’re 5^th of the entire Netherlands, well done eh?

Go to bed... bye… see you tomorrow!

Bowling!

The triple XXX....

This afternoon after school we went to the bowling again just to practise for the school-bowling tournament which will be next Saturday. To bad Mark couldn’t join us today, he had to play soccer this afternoon.

In the beginning Romay and I didn’t play very well. But after Dad ordered a very big plate full of very nice snacks, bitterballen, cheese sticks chicken nuggets and much, much more, so deliciously man, it all went so great! I never can play well with an empty stomach.

Well the triple X is ready for the finals, let the games begin!

Go to bed... bye… see you tomorrow!

Bands!

Bands with hooks around my last molars….

This afternoon I had to go to the orthodontist again and they removed the elastic rubber bands which were placed there last week. Now they attached metal bands with hooks around my last molars and in about two weeks I will get my brace which they will attach to those metal bands. It feels a bit strange those bands with those hooks on it.

It is late already so I’ll go upstairs… bye …see you tomorrow!

Bo has entered puberty!

Made his basket all to pieces….

This afternoon when Mom came home from work Bo had made a hole in his basket and he had all the stuffing taken out of it. The stuffing was almost throughout the entire living room… man what a mess!

Bo was also very very busy today and tried to tease us al the time. If you went outside with him, he refused to do his wee-wee and when you went back inside he immediately did it almost on the doormat. When we punished him he was so pitiful for half an hour and after that he was so sweet. Giving kisses all the time and crawled up to you and did a lot of licking. Such a gangster man!

This afternoon we have been training with the triple X (school bowling team) at the bowling, Saturday we must play in the half finals in Schiedam, exciting!

Go upstairs... bye… see you tomorrow!

Back to school!

Making homework….

Today I went to school the holiday’s are over. Right away we had a test at school! This Afternoon after school I immediately started doing my homework, were having 2 tests tomorrow, Geography and French!

Got an e-mail from aunt Suus from Canada Toronto this afternoon, man what snow over there! Cool man such package of snow!

Just see that snow!

Beautiful eh, that tree? Wish we had so much snow over here….

Well aunt Suus thanks for the beautiful photo’s, they are very cool!

Go to bed.... bye… see you tomorrow!

Cool game!

James Bond.....

This afternoon I’ve been at Mark’s place and we played a cool game at the Gamecube….. James Bond, 007! That is such a cool game…..

But now I have to go upstairs…. tomorrow school starts again the spring holidays are over, have to get up early tomorrow morning! Bye… see you tomorrow!

Eclipse of the moon!

Tonight at 10.30PM....

Just about 15 minutes ago I was outside with Dad to let Bo out and then I saw that there was a little part of the moon missing.

Then I remembered that there would be a total eclipse of the moon tonight, but I never expected to see it right above our house. In general there are too many clouds but tonight there weren’t, cool eh?

This is just 15 minutes later….

Go to bed.... bye…. see you tomorrow!

New Waf!

Old Waf and new Waf......

Yesterday morning Bo had fixed it all. The Waf was entirely demolished! He had pulled out the entire filling from the Waf’s paw. The entire living room was full of cotton pieces from the Waf.

For this reason Mom and Dad went yesterday evening to the pet shop to buy Bo a new Waf. Man what is that Waf beautiful! The old Waf had become much larger by all that pulling from Bo. He lost his ears and became entirely black. How long will it last before the new Waf will look the same as the old one?

Later!

Bo at the children's farm!

Watching all the little animals.....

This afternoon we have been with Bo to the children's farm here in our village. Bo loved it but sometimes he had to bark at the turkeys.

Afterwards I went to Grandma and I stuck saving stamps in her saving stamps books. (you can buy one saving stamp at the supermarket by every euro you spend there. Then you have to stick them in a special book and when that is completed you’ll get back the money you’ve spend and a few extra euros for free).

Late in the afternoon Ruud and Roy also came to Grandma and Grandpa for dinner and I stayed as well. We had Thai pasta, it was very nice!

After dinner Ruud and Roy brought me home and we all played with Bo for awhile.

Go upstairs... bye…. see you tomorrow!

It's working!

Blogger is nice but sometimes....bbbbrrrr......

Yesterday I tried to login at blogger for at least 10 times but it didn’t work so I had to give up. Blogger was down again. Every time I got a failure report. But today it’s working again…... jippie!

Yesterday afternoon I have been to the orthodontist again. In about a couple of weeks I will get a dental brace. Yesterday I got a couple of elastic rubber bands between my first molars to make some space so later on they can put on the clamps around my molars where they will attach the brace to.

The elastic rubber bands...

But this is not my mouth on the photo; it’s just one from the Internet. By me there are 4 rubber bands, but they are just the same as at the photo. It’s a strange feeling those bands between your teeth. Now I’m not allowed to eat chewing gum or any other sticky things otherwise those bands will come out. This afternoon it all started to hurt a bit and eating feels crazy. Next week the rubber bands will go out and I’ll get some bands (clamps) around my molars, it’s rather thrilling!

Donald Duck pocket....so cool man!

This afternoon we have been to Hoofddorp there is a bookshop where they sell lots of Donald Duck pockets which I collect. Those pockets are so cool; I’ve got quite a lot of them already! Mom bought me 2 new examples, can’t wait to read them!

Go upstairs so I can read in one of my new books….. bye… see you tomorrow!
