This is the second year of the club. We play games like running 'n' catching, cycling etc. We named our club "SRS Club" because the captains names are Sanjna, Radhika and Sanjith. Holiday: We have holidays on Saturdays, Sundays and every government holiday. Website: We have a website for everybody to read about our club. To look at our website click here .

When I was small I used to cut out pictures of cars and stick in a scrap book. So now my sister and I made a scrap book with the car's name in it. Sometimes by looking by the car's logo I get to know the car's name.  For example, Cars like Honda City and Swift Dzire look the same. So if I look at the logo, I get to know the car's name. Here you can see the first 2 pages of our scrap book. First page:   Second page:  

Before you read this blog you can also read my other two golf blogs. To read about the tournament click here . To read my blog "About Golf" click here . ("About Golf" is a very old post; you may have read it). May 3 was the practice day and rules clinic. May 4 and 5 was the tournament. I played in the golf club "KGA." The full form of "KGA" is "Karnataka Golf Association". My group took our first shot at 9:20a.m. In golf when we take our first shot we call it "teeing off." So from now I will be using this word. On the second day (May 5) I teed off at 8:50a.m. I finished my game at 10:45a.m. For more details click here .

 I participated in a golf tournament on  28 and 29 April. On 27 April there was a golf practice day and golf clinic where they told you the rules. I played this tournament in a golf club called  "Bangalore Golf Club".The tournament was called "South Zone Junior Golf."If you want you can log on to their website. To log on click here. They divided us into five categories depending on our age. The five categories were "A","B","C","D" and "E". I was in the "E" category. The people who were in"E" category played 9 holes on both the days. But A to D catogory  played 18 holes on both the days. For more details click here .

Mysore First we went to Mysore. We halted in Mysore to see my mother’s uncles. We stayed at their place. After a little while my mother and my mother’s uncle left to visit someone. My mother’s aunty, my sister and I stayed back at home. In the house my sister and my mother’s aunt played a game called Rummikub. When they were playing I was doing something on power point on the computer. Afterwards we had dinner.Then I watched little television. After that my father and I slept together. My mother and my sister slept by themselves in another room. The next day my whole family woke up at 05:00a.m. Then at 05:45 a.m we left and reached Puttur at 10:00 am. Puttur is near Mangalore. Puttur In Puttur my cousins were there. Three of my cousins came from U.S.A. And three other cousins came from Bangalore. One of my Bangalore cousin's mother has had a new baby, so I now have another cousin! We played many games in Puttur. We played Police and Rob...

When I was small my grand farther would make card trains. He use to used my father's old visiting cards to make a train. This card train does not work using electricity. It does not need a train track too. Now I know how to make them. You make it by folding cards so that it looks like this: To make your train you should keep many cards in a line making sure the distance between 2 cards is less than the length of the card. You should do this so that when you push the last card, to start the train it should be close enough to push the card in front. Here is a small video of the train my I made:

First read my other blog My New Cycle Mirror then come to this blog One day my father and I wanted to go cycling outside our apartment. If we go cycling we usally go to the outskirts of our city. To get to the outskirts, we put our cycle in our car boot. But when we put my cycle in the car, the mirror was too tall and the cycle did not fit in the car. So we got the rod a little lower and turned the direction of the rod. Now the cycle fits in the car. After cutting the rod I painted the rod!! Here is how the cycle mirror looks.

Once a Praying Mantis was lying in my living room. I took it onto my hand and it felt scared for 5 minutes. Then when I did not harm it,it did not feel scared. It crawled all over my body. When it went near my neck it started to itch. I then told my mother to remove it. Then I looked at it. It was doing something with its whiskers. After a little time I put it near my plants. After that I went to tell my mother that I put the Praying Mantis on the plants. By that time it flew away. Here is a picture of a Praying Mantis on my T-Shirt:

We had a party in our house. All my friends came. We played many games like Hide-Seek, Dark Room etc. It was a really fun to play with all my friends. We had dinner at 10:00. After we finished our parents had dinner at 11:00 (at night!!) After that we played till 12:00. At 12:00, 12:05 everybody left. We went to the main- gate to say bye. We then came home after saying bye. My sister and I slept as soon as we went home. My mother and father were doing some cleaning or something. The next morning we all woke up at 9:30!! I am saying this because I never have woken up so late!!

Rummikub is one of my sister's and my most favourite board games. Before you start the game you have to pick 1 tile. Whoever gets the highest number gets to start. The highest number is 13. After you do that you should put back the tile that you picked. After that whoever got the highest number picks up 14 tiles then the next person who got the highest number has to pick and so on. The tiles are small and rectangle in shape. On the tile the numbers are written. There are 4 colours - blue, orange, black and red. The aim of the game is to finish all your coins. In the game there are 2 jokers. If you cannot place anything on the board, you have to pick a coin. (There are more rules in the game). If you get a joker when you start the game you have to put it back and take another tile.

I love magic tricks. Now I know more than 8 magics tricks. My father bought me a magic kit. In the kit there is a CD-ROM that shows you how to do magic tricks. On my father 's birthday my sister and I performed a magic show. In the magic show my sister and I showed him the magics we learnt. When I was small I would think magic tricks were real. I thought that spells like abra ca dabra were real too. About 2 years ago I learnt that magic was not real. Here is a small video which will show you a magic trick that I learnt. It is called "The Sponge Ball Magic". In this magic my sister is the magician and my mother was the spectator.

I have a new cycle mirror. I used to have another one, but sadly I could not see anything that was behind me. So this is what I did. I went to a welding shop, the man welded a big rod onto the cycle handle. After that he took the mirror and welded the mirror onto the rod. Now I can see very well. I can even see cars on the road. I got this mirror fixed because I love cycling. One day I cycled 15 kilometers! Here is a picture of the rod on my cycle.

My friend gave me a new toy. It is a cat that looks like it can flap its wings. It has a solar-panel attached to it. The solar panel converts the solar energy into electricity. Using this method it looks like it can flap its wing. Here is a small video how it is flapping its wings. If you can hear there is a noise that it makes. The sound sounds like a clock. If you keep it in the sun for 5 minutes it can make its wings fly only for 2 minutes! I am going to try to keep it for more than an hour and see how much time it can survive without the sunlight.

My sister and I invented a game called Klaps and Flaps. It is a mix of Chess and Checkers. We got the idea when we were trying to learn the game Checkers. You play the game on a Chess board. You can even use a Checkers board. We were trying to learn to play Checkers but we did not understand. So we made our own game that is like checkers you even place it how they do it in Checkers. In the game you have 4 Klaps (they are like your kings)and 8 Flaps (like your pawns)(in Chess). You need 16 Checker coins to play this game. There are 16 coins because on the Klaps you place two coins to identify. The game is to kill your opponents coins. That does not mean if they kill your Klaps your dead. Only if you kill all the coins of your opponents, that means your dead.

Electronics is one of the things that I like a lot. I like motors and computers. You might like to know that I have created a website. All by myself. (To see it go to www.coordsys.com/srsclub.) My father had 2 old cellphone chargers. With that my father made a bulb. I connected my motor to the bulb. And it worked! Now you can see how much I actually like electronics. My mother is looking for some websites that tells how to make electronic stuff.
