Hello, everybody! My name is Derek Zeman, and today on my blog I'm gonna talk about some movies that I'm gonna see. First, I'm gonna see the Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, which is the movie that's directed by Peter Jackson. It was based on a book by J.R.R. Tolkien, and it's also the first series before the Lord of the Rings trilogy. The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey has lots of wonderful and amazing characters, such as a hobbit named Bilbo Baggins who lives in the Shire, and Gandalf, a magical wizard that helps Bilbo go on a journey and defeat all the evil villains. Yesterday I talked to my sister Becky that she and I would like to go see the Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey someday, and my little niece Natalie would like to go along, too, if she wants to. The next movie that I'm gonna see is Lincoln. It's a movie with Daniel Day-Lewis, Sally Field and Tommy Lee Jones. Lincoln is about the 16th president of the United States named Abraham Lincoln, who goes through his life by marrying his wife named Mary Todd Lincoln, reading the Gettysburg Address during the Civil War, and being assassinated by John Wilkes Booth while he was watching a play at Ford's Theater. Uncle Richard told me about seeing Lincoln with my dad someday, and that will be a great movie to see because Uncle Richard had already seen it. Next, I'm gonna see Oz: the Great and Powerful, and it's also the movie that's coming to theaters in March. Maybe on my birthday, my sister Becky would be taking me and Natalie to go see Oz: the Great and Powerful. It has witches, a wizard who voices over the great and powerful Oz, fairies, and lots more fantasy characters. Going to see Oz: the Great and Powerful would be a very good thing to do while celebrating my birthday. I don't know any other movies that I'm gonna see this year, but I'm gonna have to wait to find out. Well, everybody, I'm gonna talk about what movies I got for Christmas. I got the Avengers, the Dark Knight Rises, Dr. Seuss' The Lorax, the movie Brave and the Rocky Horror Picture Show on Blu-ray. That's all five movies that I got so far for Christmas! And now that's enough movies that I'm gonna see this year for today, so I'm gonna go now and tell my whole family that I'm gonna see the Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, Lincoln, and Oz: the Great and Powerful that's coming in March. See ya, everybody, and remember that I am a very good blogger! Bye!

Hi, Becky! It's your favorite brother, Derek. I'm here on my blog to talk to you about going to Planet Fitness with my dad. Every other day, my dad and I go to Planet Fitness on 27th and Morgan. Becky, you've been to the Planet Fitness on 27th and Morgan for a very long time. I always put my Planet Fitness number in my wallet for when we go there to workout. When my dad and I go to Planet Fitness every other day except on my bath days, we have to show our numbers to the owner who runs there. Then we can walk to the locker room so we can put our coats in our lockers. Then we can step up on the scale to see how much we weigh. And then we're all ready to workout! First, my dad and I went on the treadmills for 30 minutes. I pushed quick start on the treadmill and if I wanna go as fast as I usually can, I can just set the speed up to 2.5 or 3.0. I worked up a sweat by walking on the treadmill, and so did my dad. After we walked on the treadmills, Becky, we walked on over to the exercise bikes and we sat on them for 15 minutes. I started pedaling first and then I pushed quick start on the exercise bike. I pedaled and pedaled as fast as I can till my dad and I both worked up our sweats. After we pedaled on the exercise bikes, Becky, we walked to the arm curling machines and we did 10 of our arm curls. I also flexed up my muscles by counting to 10 and I did 10 more to see how strong I am. After we got done with our arm curls, Becky, my dad and I walked on over to the drinking fountain to drink water. After we drank water, we walked to the locker room again and stepped right up on the scale again to see what we weigh this time. My dad and I had a very great workout, Becky! Planet Fitness is just where I need to be to workout on the treadmill, the exercise bike and the arm curling machine so I can work up a sweat. Well, Becky, it's been nice talking to me while I'm writing on my blog about going to Planet Fitness with my dad to workout. My dad made a nice tuna salad for supper tonight that I'm gonna have for supper soon. I'm gonna go now, Becky, so I can meet you again to go see the Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey someday at a movie theater. Natalie would like to go with us if she wants to. Good-bye, Becky, and I'll see you soon!
