Update on my interests
Hey there everybody, sorry i haven't posted in a while. Life is life and life will take you other places. I am no longer in 4th grade gifted, but am now in sixth grade doing eighth grade math (Linear Algebra) and Advanced Language Arts. I am bored in both. I am now 12, turning 13 in September. I have had no new creatures made up lately because my interests have moved from prehistoric creatures and paleontology to now astrobiology, cosmology, physics, chemistry, and being a modern version of an elementalist. The precise interest I have currently is exobiology, which is a more in-depth branch of astrobiology. Astrobiology is the study of the origin, evolution, distribution, and future of life in the universe (according to Wikipedia. Exobiology is the search for life beyond Earth, and the effects of extraterrestrial life on alien life. I have actually thought of possibilities of the chemical make-up of life on Europa (one of Jupiter's Galilean moons). One day you will hopefully hear of a Nobel prize awarded to Micah Hagen. I am still technically a kid so I can dream. I hope all of the people that used to be following me are still there but i won't be upset if you aren't. Glad to be back.

My new blog (By me)
Guess what, I'm creating a new blog, I don't know what I should call it so read the rest of the post and then comment about what I should name it.
It's about a star (comment on the name too) who is bored of being in space so he/she falls from the sky. When he/she lands he/she finds a little rock (comment on the name of it too) and then after talking the star says that he/she is going on a adventure. The rock says that he always wanted to go on an adventure so they decide that they will go on an adventure together!!
Comment about what I should name the blog and what I should name the star and the rock.

Work, Work, and Work
Well, it's official, 4th grade homework is practically every night. It's not hard but with that and gifted (Oh yeah, I'm in reading gifted. I don't mean to brag but I got in of sheer grades in AIMES) homework, it's hard doing it with my chores, so it results to having 15 minutes of free time, then homework, then chores, then it's dinner, then I have to get my PJ's on, then I sometimes relax with Mom and Matt and watch TV but otherwise it's of to bed.
Life's boring sometimes I guess.
