I am now typing on my new lap-top! My mum and dad said that they'd be getting me a laptop for secondary school a few months ago for my birthday, but they got me it yesterday in the mall we were in. Speaking of which, the mall was very big, we got lost a lot as there was about fifty shops! we were there for three and a half hours and we still hadn't seen all of them! Back to my laptop. My cousin got an Ipad for her 13th birthday, 3 days ago so my mum and dad said that they could get me that instead if I wanted. But I already have a kindle, you can't run computer games on an Ipad, and I thought that you couldn't type up and save word documents, but I found that you can later when I got my laptop. And I'm sure that there's a lot more things that you can't do on an Ipad. But then the Ipad is smaller and you can buy movies on wireless, have a gps that can show your home address in Ireland when you're in Boston 6 hours 20 minutes away. Did I create this blog to blog about my new laptop and show off? No. I created this blog to blog about my summer holidays in America. Last night, the fourth of July party went on until like two in the morning. I'm very tired now having only 6 hours sleep and I sleep for 10 hours, normally. We had a load of fire-works that we lit. There were different kinds. The 'normal' fire-work, which just shoots up into the air and bursts into different colours. Then there was one that didn't shoot up into the sky. It just stayed on the ground, bursting into colours. And that's really all I can remember. I think those were the only kinds, just different colours or whatever. After the party, my sister, my cousin, my cousin's friend and I all slept outside in the tents. Before that, we were toasting somores outside in our pajamas. And before we were toasting somores we were swimming in the swimming pool at 12.30 or whatever. And before that, my cousin's mum had got a cake made for me and my cousin, as we are both thirteen now and it had a picture of the two of us when we were 3 months old. And then everyone had a slice. But there is still loads more left as the cake was really big. I don't know what we are doing today as we were kind of celebrating our birthdays last night but I'll say tommorrow!
