Sonic and the Black Knight

The newest title in the series, every one's favorite hedgehog is plunging into the world of King Arthur. This adventure has an almost Narnia type feel to it. Actually, in this game, Sonic uses a sword for combat. Sir Lancelot appears as Shadow the hedgehog and Sir Gawain appears as Knuckles along with other familiar Sonic faces. It is coming out March 3rd and I plan on renting it. I will give my full review latter. Anyway for those who are interested, I have a Sonic and the Black Knight trailer so you can decide whether you would like to purchase this game. I also have a trailer for the previous game, Sonic Unleashed. Make sure you scroll down to the bottom of the page and turn of my music before viewing videos.

Atlanta Open Results: Bitter and Sweet

As you guys know, I was competing at the Atlanta Open. The first day went pretty well. We won 6 games and lost 2. We did so well that we qualified for the first division to compete for the gold the second day. After 6 hard matches we were 5-1, tied for first place. So we had a playoff match against the team we were tied up against. Sadly, we lost. But hey, second place isn't something to sneeze at. Not only that, out of our 7 quizzers who came with us to the Atlanta Open, 5 were given All Star trophies including me. However, at the end of the trip, 5 out of 7 of us became really sick, once again including me. My friend's temperature was at 105 degrees! Not cool. My temperature when I got back almost reached 106 degrees! But I'm feeling better and all of us are on the road to recovery.

The Story of Me: Part 2

Hello again. Part Two of, ' The Story of Me.

After my year of public school kindergarten, my father got an offer for a job with a better salary than he already had in the Tampa Bay area of Florida. So after telling our family members goodbye, we headed down to the Sunshine State. We stayed with a pastor for the first few months then moved into an apartment in downtown Tampa. My mother decided to give homeschooling another try when I was about 7 years old. At this point with one sister and one brother when my mother announced she was having yet another sister in this apartment. During this time, my family did not have a permanent church home yet until we attended Victorious Life Church in Wesley Chapel with Senior Pastor Ed Russo, who has always emphasized on evangelism. We liked his style and stayed there for about 3 1/2 years.

The Verdict: Awesome, But Could Have Been Better

My team did very well this match. We started out by beating the team that was in first place, but came up short in another match to another team. We won 7 games out of 8 and overall did very well. Unofficially, we ended the season second in the state. I'm pretty satisfied with that, but of course would have rather been the 1st place team. Oh well, on to the next match in Atlanta, Georgia. Yeah, I'm excited. I get to stay at a hotel there for a whole day and quiz against some of the top teams in the nation. I'll keep you guys posted.

Day Before Match

Here I am the day before my match. I can't lie, I'm very nervous. My team can possibly be first place in the state if we go undefeated. I'm trying to distract myself from thinking too hard about it. Please pray for me that my team will do well and we will keep Jesus in our minds while competing.

Today....

Today I'm going to my TBQ Coach's house to have our monthly practice before our match. I am proud to say that my team is second in the state at this point of the season. In a couple of week's we will be traveling to a tournament in Atlanta. Yeah, it is time consuming. Anyway, that's what's going on with me right now. Maybe later this week I will finish my stories about myself when I have the time.
