About Me
Hello, my name is Max as many of you know because you’ve read the title of my blog.
Some things about me, wow… there are so many things as I am a complex person. Well, here goes nothing. I am a 12 year old boy and I am in grade 7. I have two 15 year old identical twin brothers named Jack and Callum (they are annoying!). I live in the Comox Valley and I also have three cats… one of them is 14 years old!
My favorite food is teriyaki chicken wings. You buy them from SaveOnFoods in Campbell River or Nanaimo. That makes me sad because SaveOnFoods used to be here in Comox.
My favourite animal is the Checker Hognose snake but my mom won’t let me get one! She doesn’t want to have frozen mice in our freezer. I can’t see why anyone would be bothered by that.
I have three favourite things to do: read in my room away from my brothers, play Minecraft, and play Four Square with my friends.
I’ve also been to Hawaii. In Hawaii I like to surfboard, eat cherry shaved ice and play Freak Out. Freak Out is a game where you and your friends lie down on your stomach headfirst facing the waves and the last person that doesn’t freak out and stand up wins.
In the winter I like to snowboard on Mt. Washington and I also like to sled there. Have you heard about the giant movater getting put up there? In the summer, it’s my birthday! In the summer I like to swim, run, and play soccer. My interests right now are in snakes and Minecraft.
What’s your favourite thing to do?
Max
I like space too. I also like Lego a lot. I built 2 Lego fighter jets and a sort of an Apache helicopter. I really like an army tank that I built.
I also created my name in Lego “DANIEL”. That is one of my interests. Do you like Lego?
I like Lego too. My cousin gave me a whole bin full! I’ve built a base complete with trapdoors and wall spikes. It has a garrison of ten men with various weapons from machine guns to paddles.
G’day Max,

Hello Max!
My name is Abbey and I will be visiting your blog throughout the Student Challenge to leave you comments.
I think that snakes are really interesting. A boy in my class has a pet anaconda that is really big!
Have you ever mixed your twin brothers up and called one of them the wrong name since they look alike?
~Abbey
A boy in your class has an anaconda! No fair! Actually I rarely mix my brothers up for reasons I don’t understand. Usually one of my brothers wears orange and the other red but not always…
Hello Max!
The same boy also has a dead piranha in his freezer . . .
~Abbey
Aww… Gross! Why does he have a piranha in his freezer? I keep snowballs in my freezer but that is just weird.
Hello Max!
I don’t really know why . . . He’s kinda strange . . .
~Abbey
Haha! By the way… Where do you live? I also have some strange people in my class but I don’t think that any have dead piranhas in there freezer.
Hello Max!
I live in central Indiana in the U.S.A.

Hey Max
I like MInecraft too but of course you already know that. Some of my favorite things to do is to read bike magazines and play Minecraft. I have geocashed before and have found many of them although one time Matthew got lost geocashing it took him a hour to get back. Have you?
Jack
Hi Jack! I love to play Minecraft! I have geocashed twice with my family, the first we found a bunch of toy cars but the second we didn’t find anything. What have you found?
Bye for now, Max
Hello Max, I visited your blog through the Student Challenge, too. I really like your blog and I made a little troll with my friend because her name is Cat. I really like your blog. I wonder if you’re American. I’m Vietnamese and I’ll very glad if you visit my blog. I like the same color as you.
I like to ski and I have been to Hawaii 5 o.
Hey Max. I’m Johnny and I noticed that you like snowboarding which is a sport that involves snow but where I live there is no snow. I would love to visit a place where there is tons of snow and my favourite thing I like to do is reading? Do you like reading?
Hi Johnny! I love reading! I have re-read every book in my bookshelf like five times! I have a lot of books. Do you re-read books? What’s it like without snow? We have snow on our mountain from late December until June!
Dear Max,
You have a very well written post. I have a brother too and he can be annoying just as yours can be. I think wanting a snake as a pet is cooler than having a dog, or a cat. By the way, how did you get the Christmas countdown at the top of the screen?
Thanks!
Jackson
Hi Jackson! What does your brother do to you? How do you exact your sweet, sweet revenge? I got the Christmas Countdown by going to a site (I forget what its called) and downloaded the html code of it. Maybe you could find the site by searching “Christmas Countdown Widget”.
Hi Max,
My name is Matthew and I enjoyed visiting your blog.
I mostly have only three things I really enjoy and those are: reading, playing on X-Box Live and staying after school to practice throwing Shot for our track team. I am currently reading “Halo: The Flood”; and my current interest on X-Box is Red Dead Redemption. Do you have any sort of gaming console?
-Matthew
Hi Matthew! I have a PS3! I would have a X-Box but I don’t like paying for online. For PS3 it’s free. I have Red Dead Redemption too! I also have the zombie version of it. Do you mind paying for online?
Hi Max,
I am an English teacher from Moscow, Russia and your mentor in this Student Blogging challenge.
I haven’t read all your posts, but those I have read are very interesting. So I am going to visit your blog quite often.
You cam learn a bit about me on my class blog here: http://tatyanachernaya.edublogs.org/
I like lots of things too, but not snakes, in fact, I have always been afraid of them. I like dogs, I really miss my doggy, who lived with our family for more than fifteen years.
I am looking forward to your next post, Max. My students’ spring holidays start tomorrow. Do you have spring holidays in Canada?
I wish you lots of visitors and happy blogging!
Mrs Black
I like dogs but my family can’t get one because we have three cats… Dogs and cats don’t mix very well. Either the dog barks and chases the cat, or the cat hisses and chases the dog. Either way, it doesn’t work very well. We have spring holidays here in Canada! Ours starts April 1st and ends April 16th. I’m going to Florida this year for spring break!.
Bye for now, Max
Hello Max
My name is Jaina. I have 2 sisters (they’re annoying too!)
I never knew that cats can get to that age! What colour is your cat?
Jaina.
Max,
We have many that like Minecraft in our classroom. We like to play it after school. We think you are pretty awesome! That Freak Out game seems like a lot of fun. We may try it this summer.
Have you ever been to Connecticut? We like to sled and snowboard in our state too.
Write back soon,
Mrs. Lucchesi’s Fourth Grade Class
Thanks! No, I have never been to Connecticut. Where is Connecticut?
Bye for now, Max
Hi Max,
I have an older sister who is 15 and a little brother that is 10. They may be different ages but they are annoying. My brother is more annoying than my sister though. I have also been to Hawaii! Well… sort of.. I went when my mom was pregnant with me, and again when I was 1. So I don’t really remember it, but according to my dad I had lots of fun! So I guess that’s good. I might be going for a competition in a couple years. What was your favourite thing to do in Hawaii?
Eh, my favourite thing to do in Hawaii is probably either body boarding or eating cherry shaved ice on the beach.
