Bar Mitzvah

    About two weekends ago, my weekend was dedicated to my family friend's bar mitzvah, Ethan Madarsolouk. And let me tell you, it was one of the best weekends of my life, I had a blast! Well, just in case you didnt know, a bar mitzvah is from the Jewish religion. It occurs when a boy turns thirteen years old, and is techically considered your 'manhood'. When a boy turns 13, he takes on certain obigations and is basically part of a new society. Well, at least in the Jewish community. A girl has these obligations, too but that case it is defined as a bat mitzvah, rather than a bar mitzvah. Now, lets get back to the fun at Ethan's Bar Mitzvah. Saturday morning was his reading at the temple, which is basically where he reads from the Torah. I had a blast there for sure, but the only downside was I had to wake up very early. Well, the celebration continued the next day, Sunday when it was his party. His party was fun for so many different reasons! I danced, ate, partied, and at the end I even presented the speech I wrote for him in front of everyone. Wel, that was my action packed weekend, thank you for reading! :)

Forest Gump

    If I had to choose a favorite movie, there is no doubt that the movie Forest Gump would be right at the top. This movie, is one of my most favorite for a few reasons, but most importantly, it had anything you ever dreamed of in a movie. For one, there is love mixed into the whole plot. Another reason why is because it shows how a boy perseveres through all the struggles in his life and succeeds throughout it all. Finally, the message it gives out is amazing. It teaches us to be greatful for everything we have in life, not taking anything for granted, and shows that being honest and loyal pays off. Forest Gump ( Tom Hanks ) the main character, grew up with disabled legs and he had to walk with machine legs. One morning, on his way to his new school after moving to a ranch, he had to walk several miles there. He saw this young girl that helped Forest out a lot, and she protected him from many strangers and bullies. The young girl, Jenny and Forest practically were like young wedded kids. They had the love and relationship everyone dreams to have... They would hang out together, do homework, help each other out, climb trees, communicate and stayed together until high school. Forest and Jenny grew up together as kids when Forest became succeeding in many things and being very good at anything in his way. And with his disability, he preservered through it and went along. As Forest was going on as an innocent man doing many good things, Jenny got into many bad things and his mother was getting sick. He stopped by whenever he could, and one day in military boot camp, he saw Jenny on a very weird magazine. He decided to go stop by when he saw her getting involved in many bad things. He tried helping, but she refused. Forest went along doing many good things with his life, being heartbroken from Jenny not wanting or caring about him anymore. She stopped by at his house a few times, to sneak out of nowhere and leave him heartbroken and empty without a notice. Forest goes along to teach us to preserve and get through anything that goes your way, no matter how bad. Forest Gump, was definatly one of the best movies for anyone, anyone at all.

Tarzana Park

Hello, I know I am not blogging about movie reviews, but here I am with a new recent topic! Well, I hope you enjoy! If you didn't know, my favorite hobby is basketball and I love playing it. Usually, every season I play at Balboa Sports Center where they offer different seasons for basketball. But for some circumstances that are left unknown, they did not offer season to play. And instead of taking this season off, I decided to join Tarzana park. You might ask if I like it or not, but I do not know yet. This is my first season there and so far it is very fun. Practically, all of my friends from Portola play there and it is very fun to play basketball with them. Also, the coaches are all pretty much chill, or at least in my case just let us have fun and play for ourselves. This could have its ups and down, but mainly ups in my case for now. During practice, we practically play scrimmage the whole time which is basically a game between our own team for fun. I enjoy playing at Tarzana Park because it is very fun and I enjoy it a lot. But Balboa is way better in my opinion because the coaches help you inprove and take it more seriously. Well, that was my blog on Tarzana Park. Hope you enjoyed it :)

Cousins!

    This past Saturday was a very fun and calm day. Saturday morning my cousins from my moms side came over and we had a great time. Usually, I don't see these cousins because they life in LA, and it's hard for them to come to the Valley. So either we go to there house or go out, it is on rare occasions that they come to our house so it was new and fun! In the beginning, we started off eating and of course that was fun, because who doesn't like food? We had Persain food called Ghormeh Sabzi that my aunt makes. Then later on we played a 2 on 2 basketball game with my brother, Dylan and my two cousins. After 2 and a half house of playing, we were all tired because of all the playing and decided to get some juice and relax. After that we decided to play Nba 2k on Xbox, which was also really fun. My cousins are very good so it was a fun competition, but in the end he beat me and my brother! Later on, we decided to go to the Calabasas Commons where we all had an amazing time! We ate at Johnny Rockets and walked around for the rest of the time. My brother, cousins, and I spent a lot of time together and we all had a blast! At the end of the night we decided to spend way more time with each other and see each other more often rather than every once in a while. That was my Saturday, I hope you enjoyed it!
