hey guys!

So! Tea time! Yeah. . . @kingthanos was really immature! And the story @nhoopee was really depressing! But all in all i had a good time! I had a lot of sugar to. . . (‾ω‾) hee hee hee. . . And i’m […]

On Friday, October 2nd, @thewitchqueen908 and @serenagermany slaved away at the stove, while @kingthanos and @panda joked around and played word games that involved human body parts and other stuff we don’t […]

Happy first week of Autumn!!!! The air is chilly and the leaves are changing. And I have seasonal allergy sniffles; time for honey and oregano oil (@kingthanos‘ favorite).

I got sucked into some legally, […]

Hey guys!

Today I made (and ate) some spaghetti and meat balls (@kingthanos and his horny rimes), I played one round of hide and seek, I went to little seizer’s pizza with @Hannah and @Serena (I didn’t buy […]

And this one immediately after:

oh, and try this one for the second verse:

Enjoi!

This Friday @nhoopee made her glorious return for cooking class!  We decided to make an (easy, tried, and true) old favorite- pizza. @kingthanos, @heartabby, and @failspy joined @nhoopee and @ryanschollenberger to […]

This week I played Pokémon (the card game) with @ryanshollenberger and @kingthanos.  One time Ryan won, mostly because he got Meowth.  I won the other two rounds using my Electross and Dusknoir.

 

I also did […]

@abbyo and @failspy joined @kingthanos and I for lyrical analysis.  First up was one I have been wanting to examine for a while…

Kendrick Lamar- “Money Trees”

lyrics

 

We had to transcribe the […]

This week there was a LOT of snow.  On Tuesday we had a snow-day. I stayed at home and had a huge snowball fight on the roof and killed my dad.  I even built a base for myself.

On Monday, I played “Different Tag” with @ryanshollenberger, @likeaboss, @kingthanos, @douglasawesome, @abramdb, and @failspy.  It’s an awesome game that’s like capture the flag, tag, foam sword-fighting, and flag football all-in-one.

Today I smelled cupcakes and wished I was eating them (Next week I want to join cooking class so I can eat lasagna)!

I also played on the survival world “Ryan Shollenberger’s Beard” with @kingthanos and @ryanshollenberger.  I made myself a leather tunic, leather pants, iron leggings, iron helmet and iron boots.  Thanks gave me two extra iron ingots so I could make an iron sword.  Thanos also made me the guard of the house!  Here it is:

I watched a bunch of videos by the Diamond Minecart this week.  One I really liked was about the “lucky red block” (a modded world on Minecraft).

You can craft one by surrounding a dropper with 8 pieces of redstone:

HEY guys!!!

ME IS AWESOME!!!

today i played mm w/ @ryanshollenberger !!! and played this SUPER fun game in the gym made by @likeaboss and played it w/ @likeaboss @ryanshollenberger and @kingthanos !!! this […]

These are a few things I did this week…

Minecraft:

-Ruined a village

-Went to the End (and learned how to get the Ender Egg)

-Fought lots of M.O.B.S. in survival mode (they eventually killed me)

-In another survival world, I went to a beach and made a little cabin with a path, which zombies and skeletons got onto to.  A creeper even blew up my door!

Read Calvin and Hobbes with Ryan:

My favorite one was when Calvin broke his dad’s binoculars.

Failed to play Terraria (due to download issues):

Watched Timo play Sky Rim Elder Scrolls–  he killed 5 dragons!

Played war with @shadowjack, @timotree, @thewitchqueen908, and @kingthanos.

Today I brought in magazines to make a collage (I’m going to do this next week).

 

This week I:

Played lot’s of The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.
Watched @ryanshollenberger, @kingthanos and @failspy play OOTS[Order of the Stick].
Spruced of my Trello a bit.
Showed of my new “Razer […]

This week, I intend to…

1) Make my lunch every day

I supplemented my lunch with an El Aguilá burrito on Monday, but that’s because I was extra hungry and ate my lunch for 2nd breakfast.

2) Have only one serving of caffeine per day

Coffe in the morning on non-training days, and NO Explode pre-training in the evening-  √

3) Support Jack in building a bookshelf [we have to buy a new T-square Monday]

After getting a new T-square, @shadowjack and I began our bookshelf project.  We cut pieces of birch plywood for the back, sides, top, bottom, and 2 shelves.  After winter break, we will assemble the pieces using wood glue and screws, then sand the whole thing smooth before (maybe) sealing the wood with a clear varnish.

4) Go to see the 3rd installment of The Hobbit trilogy

Despite diverging from the book’s storyline (and just plain making stuff up), Peter Jackson directed some awesome action scenes in the epic conclusion to The Hobbit trilogy.  I think Dain and his brethren from the Iron Hills were my favorite:

4.5) Offer a challenge to read The Hobbit before we go to see it Wednesday

A super-full weekly schedule (much of which I agreed to participate in/hold coherence for) prevented me from even offering this at set-the-week– this was a good decision in hindsight.

5) Hold coherence for Geoguessr [Tuesday]

@abbyo and I got the highest score in the history of ALC NYC this week!  We scored over 4,000 point in the first 4 locations, and approximately 3,500 on our final guess for a whopping score of 22,098!!!

Want to challenge us?  Try here:  https://geoguessr.com/challenge/PdmVLz0OVRO3VCwD

6) Participate in Wikitrails [Friday w/Lorax if there is enough interest]

No Lorax this week… I guess he is hibernating upstate =)

7) Analyze two hip-hop songs with @kingthanos

Again, this was an AWESOME hour spent with @kingthanos.  Check out what we listened to this week:  http://ryanshollenberger.agilelearningcenters.org/2014/12/18/hip-hop-lyrical-analysis-1218/

8) Schedule and facilitate a culture committee meeting re: restructuring clean-up jobs

We met today to review job tasks and solidify our jobs now that @kingthanos, @failspy, and @AgileAlfie have joined us full-time.  In addition to my stated intentions, here are some of the other things I accomplished this week…

-Sports Chats with Luca (including reviewing and updating our playoff predictions)

-Playing a game of Order of the Stick with @kingthanos, @failspy, and @timotree.  We defeated Xykon!

-Acrobalance w/ @failspy, @thewitchqueen908, @abbyo, @kingthanos, and Yoni!

-Chronology w/ @shadowjack and @fireballdeath

-Summerhill Philosophy, offered by @failspy

-PokéChat w/ @timotree

-Contacted @dimeglio to update me on the IP change for #NOCHEATS, then went on an expedition and found an Ocean Temple at: -2451, 63, -1252.  Enter at your own risk, @tinocrafter and the ALC Mosaic MC crew!

-Played an epic game of Werewolves DM’d by the original master, @themadhatter

 

Happy Holidays!

With love and agility,

Agilion
