My Trip to Boston
Recently, I drove to Boston. Eight hours of sitting in my car, not knowing what to do.
We left at around 4:30pm which is after my school hours. I was all packed up and ready to go. So off we went. I didn't actually realize myself how long it would take to get there from where I live.
After four hours, we stopped at one of those little places which are in the middle of the highway for you to get food and merchandise and et cetera. I ate some pizza that was so greasy, the oil dripped off. But it was still tasty (obviously).
We hit the road again for another four hours. I slept, listened to music, looked outside. I don't know about you, but I find it difficult to read in cars because it makes me dizzy? Is that only me?
Anyway, after four looong hours, we finally reached Boston. It was 2:30am. Our trip took an additional two hours because we stopped to eat and freshen up. I fell asleep reluctantly.
The next day, we decided to go to downtown Boston to just explore. I saw the TD Garden and got very excited because that's where the Boston Bruins play!
We went to a museum (forgot the name, oops) with IMAX movies about nature, displays, hands-on activities. I enjoyed myself a lot!
Later, we bought tickets to go see one of the few IMAX movies playing. It was about the Pacific Ocean and how a child from a small island was chosen to go to a school, stationed on a boat to learn about the oceans. The movie was in 180° view which was cool, but dizzying!
The day after that, we went sledding at a nearby park. I really wanted to sled, but I couldn't because I was holding my camera. I took some pictures of my brother going full speed down the hill. It was hilarious! When we came home, my toes were numb and I had to sit by the radiator for a few minutes.
The day after that one, it was time for us to leave. We packed our bags, waved goodbye, and set off back home. The same amount of time, only we got home earlier. What a fun trip that was!

My Opinion on the "Harry Potter" Books
I absolutely adore the Harry Potter books. I was apprehensive to read it at first because I assumed it was boring just because it was so thick. Wow, was I wrong.
I started reading the first book two years ago. I was recommended by a friend to read it. I kept saying no, but after some arguments, I decided to give it a go.
At this time, I had already watched a few of the movies. I barely remembered them (which was a good thing) or I would have read the books, knowing what will happen.
I got through the first few pages thinking, well this is pretty detailed. As I got more into the book, I was amazed. Literally, I could not put the book down. I read it for hours on end until I was complete. Normally, I have a really short attention-span, but not with this book. I had (and still haven't) read a book this brilliantly put together. From the creative thinking behind it to the accurate word choice. I was utterly in shock. I felt as though I was actually there, in Hogwarts itself!
Now after this book, I wanted to read the second one badly. I immediately put it on hold at the library. I waited. And waited. It was only a week but it felt like months. When it finally arrived, I started reading for hours again. You can guess what happened next. Yes, I got the next book.
The cycle continued until I was finished the series. When I has finished, I literally felt like hiding under my bed and never coming out. It was actually that good. You could say it changed my life, and for good.
So you can probably guess what I am going to say. If you haven't yet read the series, go read it. I know the books are thick and "seem boring" but look at my situation. This series ended up becoming my all-time favourite. I ask of you, go to your library, get out your card, and pick up the first Harry Potter book!
Thanks for reading this blog post!
