July 21, 2011 Spanish, Tennis, 15 Minute Walks, and Cats

First of all, if you are reading this, I want you to write a comment, no matter how short! I feel like I'm typing/blogging to no one (okay, that may be true but....) and that is not a good feeling. Anyways, please comment on my posts and continue reading this one.
Today, I woke up early compared to yesterday. Yesterday, I woke up at 1:30pm and today I woke up at eight something! There's such a big difference between the two times. Anyways, after a ate a breakfast of cereal and some juice, my mom made my brother and I continue using our Spanish learning program. In this program, you memorize words and their definitions and then you are quizzed on the content of that section. The number of questions you got correct are added to the other questions you got right. To finish one disk, you have to get 1800 points. Everyone has different accounts so you can see their progress separately. Unfortunately, my brother (768 questions right) has a higher number than me (751 questions right)!!! At least he isn't on a different disk (we're both on disk one still) which would be a horrible thing.

After a few hours of reading and doing other stuff, my mom, my brother, and I went to this tennis court where we played tennis with these two boys (Randall and Kevin) that my brother met (and kind of made friends with them) last year when we were in Boulder. We played for about an hour and a half and then my mom, my brother, and I had to pick up my dad from where his work dropped him off.
Flash forward for a bit (actually, a lot more than a bit) and my family are just walking around the neighborhood and the shops on the outskirts of it. Eventually, we turned around and then began walking back to the neighborhood where we observed this community garden sort of thing and we tried searching for our mailbox with no luck. Soon, we were being eaten alive by mosquitoes so we walked back to our house for some ice-cream and such. The whole walk lasted for about fifteen minutes. I know, that's such a long walk.
Around the neighborhood, there has been many cat spottings. On the first day we came here, there was a cat waiting outside our door just looking at us. (it was cute!) Also, when we were going to the uncomfortable car, there was a cute black white cat just staring at the flowers that are in the front of the house. We saw some cats on our short walk, too. Four to be exact. There was the cute black and white cat, a white and silver one, and two others who's color I can't describe. Since my brother's pictures of the cats turned out blurry, I'll just put a picture of a cat I found off the internet. Bye-bye. (~_~)Meow.
