Netherlands are trying to investigate the crash and has found the MH17 black box. What clues will it hold? So far I have found no info on what it holds.

A New Mod Pack

Yesterday Dad downloaded a mod pack called FTB. Which stands for Feed The Beast. We have 2 cool mods that I will explain. The first one is Bees or Forestry for Minecraft. My 2nd favourite mod. We have started it but not that far. We need to do further research about it. The other mod is my favourite mod. Thuamcraft. It's like magic, but better. You can make jet packs, mini golems that can work for you and an Infusion Altar. I completed their 1 and halfway through teir 2. I'm right now in the middle of making golems to work for you. ;)

Holidays day 2

Today I'm going to try to defeat the King. The King can shoot fireballs, frost breath and lightning. Luckily I have a sword that does 100 damage per hit and the secon best armour In the game. Sadly the King has 7000 health. It won't be easy killing it. Afterwards I'm going to play on a sky wars server. Sky wars is when you start with some materials and armour and you need to knock other people off. The last person on their island is the winner. I might do a single player world to. Maybe. I'll tell you tomorrow if I did or not.

HOLIDAYS!!!

Thats right, it's the holidays. The first thing I did as the bell rang was run an circles and jump. I sing to myself at mums classroom "It's the holidays it's the holidays". I was so excited. On the way home I couldn't stay still and I was talking about what we might do in the holidays. Maybe we could go mini golf or go to Australia. But today is the first of 16 days. Who knows what will happen? But today I played minecraft. I have a mod installed called Orespawn. It's a really big mod so I won't explain it in detail but there is 2 bosses that are insane! One is called Mobzilla with 4000 health! The other is The King with 7000 health. I've taken down Mobzilla once, but not the King. The reason I killed Mobzilla was because I had a sword that did 100 damage per hit. Give or take.

Explanation

Braeden: Guitar: How it makes its noise: The shorter the string the higher the pitch. The longer the string the lower the pitch. The strings themselves don’t make much sound. But he sound waves go in through the hole ricochets back and forth and eventually echoing out creating most of the sound.
