"When life gives you lemon's" is a very common expression,but something is normaly added to it such as : "When life gives you lemon's make lemonade" ect ...

This list includes things you realy should with lemon's and things to add on to the expression.
Things to actualy do :
.Make lemonade
.Make batteries
.Make a lemon powerd clock
.Eat them
.Grate lemon zest and use it some how
.Squeeze lemon juice in your enemy's cut
.Put it in somebodys drink
There are plenty more reasons but im not that bored.

Adding to the expression :

This was a short post but I was bored.
Thanks for reading.
Goodbye !

Summer Games to Play When Your Bored

I don't know about you but I get bored quite easily so I thought up of some games to play during the summer when you get bored. There are millions of things to do but here is 10 things to do !
  1. Create a homemade Olympics. First each person picks a country each and then you think up of sports to play and compete in them sports against your friends and who ever wins gets three points for their picked country.The person with most points at the end wins the Olympics!
  2. Have a water fight.Gather six (including you) friends and split you in to two groups of three Next you pick water weapons such as water guns,water balloons etc... and start the fight ! It isn't a game where a teams wins its just for fun and to cool you down in the hot weather.
  3. Set up a lemonade stand.Setting up a lemonade stand is fun ! you earn money,you get
  4. Lemonade...  Find somewhere busy like a local beach or village or some place like that to set up your stand.
  5. Wash your parents car. My brother and I were sooo bored we volunteered to do it and we got paid a euro each to do it.It's fun if you put on your swimming suit and wash the car so if you spray your brother with the hose it's OK... and then it turns into a water fight!
  6. Find a beach to go to and go for a swim.It may be cold but.... it's fun I suppose.
  7. Train your dog.I have three  dogs and I have decided to train our puppy pippin!
  8. Direct a mini movie. Get props and costumes and write out a script and make a mini movie !
  9. Go for a picnic.get some food,a football,a frisbee and go for a picnic on the beach or in a field or ... anywhere realy !
  10. Go cycling.You could go cycling or rolerblading,walking,jogging and skipping.The list goes on but I don't have that much time.
Thats all for now ! please comment and read my next post . goodbye !

Book v Movie ........ The Hunger Games !!!

Hello readers,
Just before I begin my post I would like to apologise for not posting in ages ! moving on .........
I will warn you , IF YOU HAVN'T READ  OR SEEN THE HUNGER GAMES AND YOU WOULD LIKE TO DO NOT READ THIS AS IT CONTAINS MAJOR SPOILERS !!! :)

Both the movie and the book of the hunger games are EPIC but are in several ways different as I will point out for you.

So here we have the diferences,

  • In the movie the avox girl isn't  mentioned at all
  • One of the biggest differences is how Katniss gets the mockingjay pin.In the movie she is walking around a sort of market place when she spots the pin and is given it for free where as in the book Katniss is given the pin from madge the mayors daughter.
  • Haymitch doesn't fall off the stage at the reaping in the movie but does in the book
  • Before Katniss leaves she has three visitors:Gale,Prim and her mother but in the book Peetas dad also visits and gives her cookies which she later thows out the train window :( I would have eaten them !
  • In the book it's Cinna who tells the couple to hold hands where as in the movie it's Peetas's idea
  • in the movie before the games start Katniss doesn't get distracted and loose time when the games begin but in the book she gets distracted and looses time
  • In the book Katniss finds water a day after the games begin but she finds a pond straight away in the movie
  • In the book Rue points out the tracker jacker nest about Katniss to warn her but in the movie Rue tells her to drop the nest on their heads rather than warning her of the nest
  • In the book after Rue's death Katniss recieves a gift from district 11 but this doesn't happen in th movie
  • In the book when Peeta is sick Katniss tells him a story about how she got Prims goat but this doesn't happen in the movie
They are some of the many differences in both the book and movie .
Personaly I prefer the book because it gives more detail than the movie and out of all the changes that were made I prefer the way they have them in the book.I still love the movie but i prefer the book a little bit more. I would give the movie a ..........9/10 and the book a ............. 9.5/10 !!!

That is pretty much all I hve to say about the hunger games and I will certainly do this again when the second movie comes out ! thanks for reading goodbye !!!
