Yoooo! What's up? I have been to school today. It has been so hard. We had rugby and I scored 23 tries. Go meeeeee! Lol!

We made cookies in DT. They were so so so so so nice!

I had art and it was raining so so so so so so badly we could hardly hear the teacher. Lol!

When it came to lunch I had two pizzas and cake and custard. Mmmmmm... Yummy! Lol! Well folks, that's all that's really happened and I can remember.

School talk

Hi it's me again, Ryan.

I saw some of ur responses from my other entry and for some of them I was in stitches with laughter. This time I wanna know wat ur talkin' about in school. In my school it varies. One day it could be who's better, Rooney or Henry? It's a hard one! Then on another day it could be who looks better, Beyonce or Cheryl Tweedy from Girls Aloud? Might sound silly but some of my friends have some really strong opinions on this stuff! Lol! Unless I'm involved I always say it doesn't matter because it doesn't really make a difference! Lol!

I g2g.

Stay kool, stay Ryan people.

PS - I just wanna say bye to Lisa Marie. Most of you won't know her but she was the one who worked with me on Level Up. She done all the camera work with me and made it look good just 4 u guys. She's great and I can't say thanks enough!

Holland

• Level Up Gamer - Bradley

Dag (Hello),

Here I am blogging from Holland! After my seven hour ferry crossing (with less then five hours sleep!)

I arrived in Rotterdam having to put my watch one hour forward which seemed weird. After checking in at our hotel we set off to explore the town. Holland has some really different modes of transport. Firstly everyone owns bikes, they even have lanes for bikes out here! You cant go five metres without seeing water. Boating is a big part of Holland. Now finally my favourite type of Dutch transport - trams! They look a bit like futuristic buses that run on rails, but best of all they r cheap and fast.

Holland is world famous for its architecture, just check out these buildings and u will see why.

Even the toilets are well designed! Lol! It's great Holland hasn't forgotten it's past though. There are loads of museums and grand old buildings right up against the new.

The reason this church has no longer got a spire is because it was bombed during the war. It was the only building left standing in that part of the town.

While I'm here I'm trying to experience the Dutch life. I've eaten traditional Dutch apple cake, mayonnaise with chips, lots of local cheeses and I've even tried chocolate sprinkles on my cereal. Do you guys ever have any strange food combinations? And if you do, which are your favourite?

I've also tried to learn some of the language. It was really hard, but luckily nearly everyone here speaks English. I've been to a Dutch market. Using my language skills I bought a claxon, some fruit and a hot chocolate (which is very tasty over here because it's so sweet and always served with a nice biscuit), unusual fruit and veg (like pumpkins the size of a space hopper, weird spiky cucumbers and others which I don鈥檛 even know the name of) antiques, fried fish, cheeses, meats and loads of plants and flowers. You can expect to find them all at a traditional Dutch market.

I've been to a maritime museum, had an awesome massage in a massage chair which was soooo relaxing. While we were out shopping I bought chocolate letters for my friends which are traditionally given to the children of Holland on December the 5th by Saint Nick (Santa Claus). I had a pleasant walk through some of the parks, then went up the Netherlands' tallest watchtower. 185 meters above the ground! It was really scary but a gr8 adrenaline rush. It was kl 2 see Rotterdam from so high up. I felt like I was looking over a toy town.

My trip to Holland is very near it's end and so is my half-term break. I hope you have enjoyed reading my blog over the holidays. I look 4ward to tellin' u about life back at boarding skool. I hope u peeps had a good half term and if ur travelling back to a far away school I hope you have a safe journey.

Until next time.

Braders.

London trip

• Level Up Gamer - Bradley
• 24 Oct 06, 02:33 PM

Wow, I've been up to so much since I last blogged. First of all I finished off most of my prep (that means home work). Then early Monday morning I got on a train and my family went 2 London!!! This is my B'day present from my parents and my God-parents. We went on the wobbly bridge and it had a really nice view of the boats on the Thames.

Next we went to a "generic" modern art gallery, It was well cool! There were loads of fab paintings and sculptures. They really made you think. My favourite one was one where there were loads of little green men laughing around a bench. Some of the exhibits were really interactive and good fun. It was a great family day out. What kind of things do you think would encourage more people to come to art galleries? What kind of art do u like making?

The day after I had a tour round the 大象传媒 studios. It was brill, especially seeing the Level Up crew again! I even got to see behind the scenes at CBeebies and TMi. And I got to say hi to Andy, the new Blue Peter presenter, in the Blue Peter garden! It was great to catch up with some old friends! Thanks Level Up team!

Also I've had a new haircut (AHHHHHHH!). It's really different and I'm a bit nervous what people will think. As I'm @ home now I can play with my dog, Max, as well, which is really nice coz I can't at boarding school.

Yesterday I had to stock up on tuck (snacks for school) as I can't pop down to the shops like u lot. Lol! If up had 2 buy ur own snacks for 6 weeks wat would u get? Would u stay healthy or have loads of chocolate?

By the way guys, thanks for your response to my last blog. I really appreciate your comments so keep 'em coming!

Until next time,

Brad

PS - I'm off 2 Holland in a couple of days so "tat ziens" (See you soon)

What a week

• Level Up Gamer - Avijit
• 18 Oct 06, 09:54 PM

Hi everyone.

I had a good and boring week this week. On Monday on the way back from my school it was pouring with rain for an hour. It made a big puddle on the road. I was walking on the pavement and this car comes charging down the road and soaks me from head to toe. I was soaked! It took me a couple of minutes to walk back to my house and when I got there my brother was having a bath. But that night all of Swansea was flooded! Well, really parts of it! But the all the road on the street I live on was filled with water. Lucky me! Our house is qute high so me and my side was alright, but my opposite neighbour said all the water got in.

But the bad thing in school was I had PE that day and I had to play footie inside a small hallway. We had a tournament and our team won three games! Wicked! Easy, easy, easy! Lollolol! Great day! Even drama! I love drama! We do plays some times but the warm up is great.

The next day it was boring old school again. But when I came home I went out with my mates to play tennis in this huge tennis place. After that we had pizza. It was awesome! Brill day going out.

I can't wait for my birthday! It's getting closer and closer, and so is Halloween and Guy Fawkes night! The lot! On my b day we have fireworks and huge rockets. Nice, but have to be careful. Last year I burned my hands on a small firework. The day after my b day I'm going paintballing with my school. I love paintballing! It's at a huge place near where I live. If u get shot by a ball it stings a lot! Aww! So what - I'm stilll going!

Bye peeps! Write back to your Gamer Avijit.

Stay kl.

Hi from Bradley

Hi Level Uppers,

It's Brad the Gamer. I'm currently home from boarding school on my hols (it's really weird sleeping in my own bed). So now is a really good time to start my blog. The last few weeks of boarding school have been really busy. Amongst other stuff I've competed in an ultra mini marathon (five mile run). It was really tough but it felt good to finish it. I also went on the world's last sea going paddle steamer (which was great fun) and I went on a big sailing boat, which I helmed! (Do u guys have any interest in water activities?)

Recently I have been given my choir robe. This shows I've been in the choir long enough to earn the privilege. My next big choir event will be the Christmas service. I got to try roller-skating for the first time too, I was terrible and have the bruises to prove it but it was great fun.

As well as all that, we had an author come into school. I love his books. They're all teen spy, they're so good they're going be made into a film. He gave us a talk where he told us about some books that aren't even out yet! Afterwards I had a chat with him and he signed my book 4 me. As I love reading books I've been chosen to be in my school's library council. I am allowed to help decide on the events in the library, like plays and debates, but most excitingly I can choose which authors visit us. If you could pick an author to come to your school who would it be?

Until next time,

Braders.

Leadership course

• Level Up Gamer - Callam
• 11 Oct 06, 07:22 PM

Hello everyone, this is my second blog entry. Aaarggh! Bin a bit busy... Lots of homework and stuff like that. Anyway, I had PE yesterday and... I scored a goal! Yayyyayayaya! It wasn't a very good goal, but none the less it was a goal! Lol.

Today at school I had to perform in assembly. I had to be the narrator for a play. Lol! And it was quite good, then I went on a leadership course... This is where about 6 people from year 9 from the schools in my area go to a place and we all do a course which involves talking about problems in my area and stuff like that... A bit boring, lol, but at the end I realised it was quite good. Lol! Then, when I got back, I called for my friend and we played on the computer, which was OK and then we started watching the England game!

All the best,

Callam

Hi people out there!

This is my first blog entry.

Today I've been chillin' at home. I got up really early and played on my games console. I then went to meet one of my mates. This afternoon I watched TV.

OK, you guys you wanna hear a joke? I thought so!
Where does the Prime Minister keep his armies?
Answer: Up his sleevies!!!

I thought the footie yesterday was OK but not the best England match I have ever seen. At least we got a point and Scotland got a good win.

See u later.

Bye
