Scoop Yourself

  I got back late last Sunday night from Honduras, and I have delayed blogging until now. But there hasn't been any earth shattering news recently. My trip was absolutely amazing, I think I will post some pictures when I get them on the computer.
  Today on the Odyssey scoop it was announced that there will be a contest called, scoop yourself. What you need to do to win is come up with the most creative way of displaying your Odyssey collection. If you win you will get a copy of  "The Green Ring Conspiracy." I think I will give it a try even though I don't have any ideas.
  I will hopefully be posting my thoughts on "The Green Ring Conspiracy" soon, without any spoilers.

Goodbye (for a little while)

  I will be gone for a while, on Wednesday I am leaving on a mission trip to Honduras, I will be gone for about 10 days. I am really starting to get nervous. I am going without either of my parents, I have never gone anywhere without them for this long. And considering it's not a "have fun" trip I bet I will be uncomfortable. So I would really appreciate it if you would pray for me.
  I gave in, I bought the, "The Green Ring Conspiracy" to listen to on the plane, but I am saving it until then. I will still be around until Wednesday night but I won't be posting anything until at least February 20. I just hope there isn't any amazing news while I am gone. Goodbye everyone.

My opinions about,"When Your Right Your Right" and the Exiting Announcement!

 Album 53 is now available to download! Many Odyssey fans will be able to hear album 53 a month early! I was actually disappointed about this news because I would really like to have the real album 53, but I would also love to hear it now. I could buy both, then I would spend double the money, but I still have birthday money to spend.
I am going to post some of my thoughts on a few of the album 51 episodes that I have some opinions about. I will start off today with, "When Your Right Your Right."
  I have a few moral problems with this episode, and I never thought that I would say that about and Odyssey episode. In the first scene it amazed me how rude Emily was being to her dad. It was crazy; she
was saying stuff under her breath and then when her dad would ask her what she said she would respond by saying, "Oh nothing!" And she was never corrected for it.
  I don't like the line when Emily is changing the card with Matthew and says, "That's not what a girl wants, a girl wants romance." What kind of a ten year old girl is thinking about romance? When I was ten I barley knew what romance was!
  In the scene where Emily and Matthew are watching Barrett give the card to Priscilla, this is what Emily says, "Look at that hug she's giving him! This feels good Matthew, this feels really good." That is by far not what I would be saying if I saw my brother hugging some girl.
 But on a more positive note I loved the sound of this episode. The music was really good and when Mr. Jones was calling Barrett and Emily down for dinner, it sounded really like he was calling them from down stairs. And Barrett's performance was much better than his previous one.
