Summer

I love summer and everything about it. The thing I love the most about summer is the warm weather. You can play basketball till whenever you wan't, it barely rains in Oliver during the summer as well and everybody just seems to be in a good mood. In July and August you can play basketball till 9:30 pm and it still dose not even get dark. This summer just like all other I will spend at my farm in the States working, but I try to come back to Oliver as much as I can. When I am at my farm and not working I like to go quading, dirt-biking and playing basketball. One of the best things about summer is the National Basketball Association playoffs start, my favorite team is the Los Angeles Lakers hopefully the will win it all this year. If they get taken out I a would want any team to win except for, the Miami Heat. Summer is my favorite season of all and I wish throughout the whole year the weather would stay nice and warm outside, but the one thing I love about winter is when it is snowing and at the same time it is not cold outside.

Spring Break

        Spring break, people travel to different countries, big cities and many other things, but me I did not do anything like that. Every weekend of the spring break I had to go to my farm in the states and work. I would go to sleep at around twelve o'clock, but at my farm I would have to wake up at seven o'clock and work. Most of my time in Oliver was spent playing basketball and working out. I started doing a program called The Jump Manual, it increases your vertical leap. I have only been doing it for four weeks and my vertical has increased five inches! The program is twelve weeks long, I am one third of the way through it. On the last weekend of spring break I went to Penticton, and watched 21 Jump Street, it was the funniest movie ever. I was about to watch The Hunger Games, but I remembered that we might watch it with our class. The first week of spring break went by really slow (which is good), the second week on the other hand flew by. Overall to me this is the best spring break ever because I improved my basketball game and I improved my vertical.
