Hex Bug Blessing

 Building a Hex Bug course


My Mom and I went shopping one day at Wal-Mart and it was a little bit before my birthday. Now, so you don`t get confused, Target (the store) has Hex Bugs for $5-7. While my Mom and I were at Wal-Mart, I saw Hex Bugs for $4.30, so I thought that was a great price. When we (Mom and I) got to the check-out line there is a meter that shows you how much the stuff you are buying costs.  Guess what?! When the lady at the check-out line swiped the Hex Bugs that I got - the meter at the check-out line showed us that the Hex Bugs costed $3.00 each!!!  What a blessing. Since the price was less than I expected it to be  (I originally planned to get 5 Hex bugs) I was actually able to afford twice as many! I was able to share one with my sister, my neighbor, and my friend, Peter.

Nerf Laser Tag

The ULTIMATE NERF LAZER GUN SET:  it doesn`t fire foam bullets; it actually fires invisible lasers! When you fire it at your opponent`s gun (which has something like a radar that picks up the laser that you fired) it beeps and it counts it aganst your enemy! The same thing goes for your gun. Some other cool features on it are on the right side of it it shows how much ammo you have, and when you are out of ammo you get to cock your gun!  On the left side it shows how much strength you have. it also has a setting for indoor and outdoor! It  has a shield that you get to hold down three times for ten seconds! You can chose if you want to do a ten shot game or a twenty-five shot game! Well, that`s all I have for the NERF LAZER TAG GUNS!

How to write a Request for Purchase



      An RFP is a method used by businesses. It is a way for a worker to ask the boss to buy something for the company. The worker has to explain why the purchase would be helpful to the company.That way the boss could make a decision quickly. 
     Learning how to do a RFP (like the one below) will help me in the future if I am a employee.

RFP for Laser Tag Nerf Guns

     God gave me the ability to become a BIBLE QUIZ CHAMPION.  I am grateful for his kindness to me.  In this adventure, I spent a great deal of time studying and learning God's word.  Based upon my diligence in study, I am hoping that I might be rewarded with Laser Tag Nerf Guns.


     Laser Tag Nerf Guns can be purchased online or in the store (such as Toys R Us).  Through my own research with Hannah, I've discovered that buying online is better than purchasing in the store based on the following information:
     1.  It will save you money buying online because the price is cheaper ($60 online; $80 at Toys R Us).
     2.  Buying online saves time because there is no driving (saves on gas) and no sales tax.

     In terms of using the guns at home, I've included the reasons below:
     1.  If I would be able to get them, it would supply Hannah and me a great amount of fun.
     2.  When I have friends over at our house, we would have the choice to play either inside or outside.
     3.  With Nerf Guns, you have to retrieve bullets for playtime.  In doing this, they can be lost, jammed in the gun or damaged from play.  Additionally, not all Nerf bullets work with the same guns.  This generally creates confusion and frustration for both parents and children.
     4.  With Laser Tag Nerf Guns, there are no bullets.  The game is played fairly since the guns monitor hits and ammunition remaining.
     5.  The downside with Laser Tag Nerf Guns is that they require batteries.  This is easily overcome since no bullets need to be purchased and the addition of a battery recharger would help tremendously.
     The exercise aspect of the guns is that they are pretty energizing.
     
      To play you would go behind obstacles, run to dodge lasers, and especially run to hit your opponent with lasers. So the exercise aspect is very beneficial for the body. So from a one to ten, I would give it an eight on exercise. Laser Tag Nerf Guns are not only beneficial to the body, but to the mind. Dodging objects, hitting targets that are far away, and outsmarting the enemy will help you to be a quick thinker.
     The Laser Tag Nerf Guns are also a great incentive for finishing school.

THE END‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼‼!
Thank you, thank you! Thank you very much!

Just my type

     Every once in a while you will notice that my posts will be longer. That is because my mom is going to give me a break from typing until I become a better typist. She will type for me & we will  make a game of it. Instead of doing my grammar exercises from a book, I will dictate to mom & she will purposely make spelling and grammatical errors. Then, I will read through the post and edit the mistakes for practice. You can edit along with me and see if you can catch me leaving things out or misspelling words. Just let me know in the comments section if I need to correct something! Happy editing!
