Today I went to the San Francisco Symphony Hall.
When I got there, I was on one of the highest rows of the auditorium. It was amazing. I got a pretty good view except some kids kept on leaning forward.
My favorite ones were Love From Three Oranges by Prokofiev, Surprise Symphony by Hyden, well, I liked all of them I admit.
I wonder why the SF Symphony didn't play Piano Concerto No. 1? I know how to play the arranged one including the pedal. Piano Concerto No.1 is by Peter I. Tchaikofsky.
Anyway, I really liked going to the SF Symphony and well, that's about it. Bye!

The Idea Box
Hi! Today is 2008 but however, this story happens in the future in 2031.
It was raining and Daniel and Julia Lawrence were really bored. Julia was typing on an en-typewriter (a new invention). Daniel was tapping on the window and making goofy faces trying to cheer himself up. But, they were still bored.
Suddenly, Daniel had an idea, "Hey Julia!" he called across the room. "I have an idea!" Julia looked up from her typing. "What?" she called back. "Let's make an idea box!" Daniel explained. "If we're ever bored again, we'll press a button and it'll print out ideas for us to do." Julia said, "Great idea!" So, they went down to the basement to start on the project.
Their mom poked her head down into the basement, "Want a snack?" she asked. "No thanks." Daniel and Julia replied. Their mom shook her head as she went away. Julia slammed the door shut and Daniel flicked the light on."Come on, Dan!" Julia said to Daniel. (Dan was Daniel's nickname.)
Daniel and Julia started on their amazing project. Their parents heard loud hammering and noisy clanking from the living room. Meanwhile in the creepy basement, Julia and Daniel were working away.
Julia ran up to her room. She came back down with her ex-science kit. Julia grinned happily. "Look what I found in my desk!" she explained to Daniel. "My ex-science kit. We can use the fowlar (another new invention used as a type of liquid) to make it silver like a robot's silver!" Daniel opened Julia's case and found the shiny silver fowlar. Then they got a test tube from the kit and poured some fowlar into it. Then, they poured the fowlar over the metal box. Daniel and Julia still needed to make improvements on the idea box.
There was a skinny slit on the side of the unfinished box. Daniel found rusty, useless old drawer by a cobweb filled corner. He went to the bathroom to rinse it off. When he was done rinsing it, he trotted back down the basement steps. Julia's eyes gleamed. "Dan! We could pour the silver fowlar on it! And then we could slide it in our box!" so, they poured the shiny, silver fowlar on the drawer. They slid the drawer in the slit. It fit just right.
They already made the inside so they just needed to make the buttons.
After a few hammering, they were finally done. Daniel and Julia smiled proudly. Daniel pressed the button. The idea box buzzed and beeped. It let out a wah-wah-wah sound. "Drat!" Daniel shouted angrily. He kicked the idea box that they made, hard. It let out a humming sound. Then it printed out some paper out through the slit.
"What's this?" Julia wondered aloud. She picked them up. "Monopoly Jr. Connect four, read, play tag in the yard?" she read from the list. "It worked!" Daniel cried.
So, whenever they were bored again, they world use the idea box. If it won't work, they knew what to do. Kick it, hard!
THE END
