Ok, so I reached 70 subs a few days ago, and I've decided to reveal a tradition I do with my father.

Anyways, my parents are divorced. I won't say how long it's been, but I will say they divorced when I was very little. Now, I still see both my parents. Every other weekend, I go to my dad's apartment and then I go back to my mom's on Sunday. When I'm at his house, I usually go on what we call Adventures with him. Every year, we always go on Adventures, and on each one, we take pictures of where went using an old Polaroid camera my dad found on eBay. We have this whole album full of Polaroids we took on each Adventure, and every year we try to break our record. (The Adventure count resets at the end of each year.) Last year, we went on 21 Adventures. This year, we've already beaten our record and are currently on Adventure XXIV. (Our Adventures are numbered with Roman numerals.) XXV is going to be watching Avatar: The Way of Water on Friday (12-23-22). Even on weekends when we don't go on Adventures, we still have fun. For example, we got the mall near his apartment building, or, in the summer, we head to the various parks and playgrounds nearby, like Juniper Valley Park. (My dad lives in Queens.) We also go on errands, like to the supermarket. Now, these Adventures and trips to the mall and stuff like that are some of the reasons why I'm not on PMC every other weekend. Another reason is because I use his computer because I never bring my computer to his house. I check PMC in the mornings when I'm with him, and then we go on our Adventures at lunch.

Anyways, we also have Adventures we always do every year. Here's some of them (there's usually one for each month or season):
February - An Adventure for my birthday (This year it was Bowlero's, an arcade)

June - We go on an Adventure after the last day of school ends (This year it was the American Museum of Natural History, to see the Sharks exhibit).
   - We also go to Maloof Skate Park for Skateboard Day, and skate and have a water gun fight, and then get Slurpees at the 7-Eleven by his     apartment building on the way

July - Now, I spend all of July with my dad, so we have a few Adventures that we always do:
  • Coney Island (the Hot Dog Eating Contest and the beach) for Independence Day)
  • Juniper Valley Park
  • Sleepy Hollow (to see Washington Irving's grave)
  • Every year, at the end of July, we go on a trip somewhere. This year it was San Francisco. Last year, it was Boston. In 2020, we couldn't travel because of COVID, but in 2019 we went to Washington D.C. Next year, we're gonna finally go on our trip to London that we wanted to do in 2020, but couldn't because, you know, COVID. In 2024, the current plan is to go to Costa Rica, where my dad's family is from.
October - Sleepy Hollow again, this time for my Dad's birthday.

December - Every December, on Christmas Eve, we finish off our Adventures by going to Cozy's Soup & Burgers for dinner (Burger, fries, and a milkshake), then we go Christmas caroling, or rather, we used to, but it stopped for COVID, and now it's back, but lately we've been visiting the Forbidden Planet comic book store instead. Anyways, we end the night by going to see a movie that came out in December. In 2017, it was Ferdinand. In 2018, we saw Bumblebee. In 2019, my dad's friend Emmanuel, who's in the military and who is currently testing tanks, joined us to see Rise of Skywalker. 2020 was COVID, so we didn't go to the movies. We just went to Cozy's. Last year, however, we saw Spider-Man: No Way Home, with my (half) sister Chloe, who had come all the way from Arizona to stay with us earlier that day. (She had to leave a few days early because her mom fell down the stairs.) This year, as I said, we're seeing the new Avatar.

Anyways, that's it for my 70 subs special. I'm still working on stuff for 50 subs, so I'm only gonna shout-out the 70th sub: anonpmc4374529!
CreditYou guys, for getting me to 70!
