Summer has brought nothing but fun so far. This week I left for Kauai, Hawai’i along with my mom, stepdad, and stepsister. We are staying a little over a week and I’m super excited. We got a nice place on the north end of the island that is pretty close to an awesome beach. It is super wide open and …
Cooper Riegel – Week 26
Disneyland! Now that school is out, my dad surprised me with a trip to Disney for my birthday! We stayed for 2 days and spent about 16 hours each day in the parks. We were joined by my aunt and cousin, who come with us every trip. My favorite ride was definitely Space Mountain, which is currently Hyperspace Mountain and …
Cooper Riegel – Week 25
School is finally out! This week was a 4 day school week, with Wednesday and Thursday being finals. I thankfully did not have a final in computer science and instead we watched the Mario Movie. Unfortunately I still had Math, Chemistry, and History. I got high A’s on all of my finals. I finished the semester with straight A+’s and …
Cooper Riegel – Week 24
This week has been pretty good and pretty stressful. All missing work was due on Friday, and I had about 25 missing assignments for chemistry. It took about 7 hours, but I got all of them done and submitted. This ended up being helpful for review as I have finals next week. For mothers day, my mom, stepdad, and I …
Cooper Riegel – Week 23
This week one of my friends had a birthday party. The five of us went down to Roseville for an escape room. The room was in a futuristic lab controlled by an evil AI. We held our streak of being about 10 minutes from escaping when the time ran out. We spent the rest of the day up in Auburn …
Cooper Riegel – Week 22
Another week, more rain. This week has been slow, besides a trip to the mall. The highlight of this week was Taylor Swift’s announcement of Speak Now (Taylor’s Version). The only thing to report is that my test is otherwise going well, the halfway mark is approaching in a couple weeks which is exciting and almost surreal. Nothing else of …
Cooper Riegel – Week 21
This week was fun and bittersweet. One of my friends hosted a sleepover for their birthday. We did an escape room and kept our track record of not escaping before the timer. It was a creepy escape room and we managed to solve every puzzle. The only thing was we solved the last one literally one minute past the hour …
Cooper Riegel – Week 20
This week was pretty fun. My mom, stepdad, and I hung out with our horses at the barn for a while and I took some good photos of my golden doodle. Later on I went to see the spring play at Placer called Ghostlight. It was about a girl who can see ghosts and meets the ghost of her older …
Cooper Riegel – Week 19
My family and I went to Table Mountain, just past Oroville this week. It has become somewhat of a tradition the last few years to go up and see the flowers. The bloom was fantastic and nearly every surface was covered with flowers. We went on the big loop around the mountain which goes past a massive waterfall and around …
Cooper Riegel – Week 16
This week was pretty fun. This Friday was Powder Puff at Placer, where senior girls play flag football and the senior boys are the cheerleaders. It was very entertaining and watching the cheerleaders was hilarious. I also went skiing with my dad and a family friend and got some good turns on the mountain. I also got to spend some …
