Sector 9 Skateboard-9 FInger Shaka Mini-Series
I really like this board. It is a great board for carving and doing powerslides. It can also do tricks and bomb some not-so-big hills. This board is great for carving because the shape lets the wheels move freely underneath the board. Even when I …
Chubbles - Classic 1980’s Toy
I’m reviewing my favorite childhood toy, a stuffed animal called Chubbles. Chubbles was a semi-popular children’s toy manufactured in the early 1980’s, and discontinued after only a few years. I loved Chubbles because to me, he looked like a little, cream-colored furry Ewok type creature. I …

Decorative Plastic Fly Swatter

Bic Cristal Gel Pen in Black (medium)

H2Ozone Stainless Steel Water Bottle
The newest craze is to, apparently, purchase stainless steel water bottles and use them instead of plastic water bottles, especially if you are, like my family often does, re-filling the plastic bottles. The reasoning behind this is that the plastic bottles are both bad for the environment in terms …
