THE RADISHES FOR THE SCIENCE FAIR ARE GROWING!!! THEY’RE GROWINGG!!! IN WATER!!! =D I never thought that they would grow in water but they’re growing!! I was trying to call Savannah before but she wasn’t home. But yeahh. They’re growing. It’s so cool. The seed popped out of the skin and the skin’s floating and the thing’s white. Hehe. It’s sooooooo cool. Hehe.

So anyways, I woke up at 8AM, as usual, took a shower and washed my hair and face, ate breakfast, and practiced piano. Then I went on the computer and played some games. I watched parts of New York Minute again. It was good. Hehe.

I had lunch and then at 4:15PM, I went to my piano lesson. Then, I came back and before I had dinner, I went to water my plants and check to see if there were any changes, and there was!!! The radishes are growing!!!! Yippee!! Then, I had dinner and I went on the computer more.

Well, that’s about it.

YAHOO! The last day of school before winter break! =D

French, we had a party. We all had to make cakes and pancakes and junk like that. Mine looked really nasty, but people said it tasted good. We sprinkled the whole thing with chocolate chips. AHA. I didn’t eat much of the stuff. Just some truffles, which were overly sweet and bitter. YUCK. Haha.

Science, we drank juice and ate donuts. =) Billy wanted a double chocolate one, but I took it first. And then afterwards, I was just like ok I’ll jsut give it to him. And then he was like so happy.

Math, some of us went to the Christmas Concert and some stayed in class. I went to watch the Christmas Concert, which I don’t think I should’ve done. I should’ve just stayed in class and did the Math test that I missed. >.> Oh well. Haha. I made it up after school.

English, we just did a journal and… Iunno. I forgot. Haha.

Yupp.

I need a title for my Science Fair. Hmm. Me and Savannah are gonna do stuff about measuring roots. We can’t really think of a name though.

Today in Foods, we made Jam Thumbprint Cookies. Soooooooooooo yummy. I brought the recipe home and I’m gonna hopefully make some couple batches over winter break. =)

We went skating today. I fell twice, but it was okay. The second time i fell, this guy was like “Omg omg are you okay?” and I was like “… yeah…” and then he put his hand out and he helped me up. O.o Aha. =]

La la la la la. One more day of school! Woot! Can’t wait until winter vacation. =) Serena’s jetting off to China =( , I have volunteering, and stuff like that.

The counselor was in Socials class today and me and Serena just ran up to her and asked if we could have 9 courses next year but SHE SAID WE CAN’T CAUSE THERE AREN’T ENOUGH TEACHERS!!! OMG! So not fair. >=( I want 9 courses. It’ll ruin everything if I don’t get my 9 courses for Grade 10/11. TT_TT Humph. But then she said she’ll talk about it like, step by step or something. HOPE IT WORKS! :’(

I’m debating whether I should use Times New Roman for homework or continue with Arial. Times New Roman looks more professional looking, but Arial looks nice too, just not as professional looking. Sigh. Iunno.

Should study for Math test too. =T

The English 9E and I think 10E went to see Beauty and the Beast play today @ the Stanley Theatre. I thought Stanley Theatre would be like, a movie theatre or something, but it’s like so olden day looking. So cool though.

I thought the play was gonna be boring but it was sooooooooooo good. After the intermission, everyone was like “Omg it’s so good”. The guy who played Beast was ugly though. Ahah. He looked better with his mask on. xD Haha. Belle was good, and it was really funny too. =)

We took the 20th bus to Broadway, and then the 99 UBC B-Line bus all the way to West Broadway and Granville or something like that. We bused all the way back too, but I didn’t go back to school. I just went home. =)

During the Intermission, I was so hungry, and the lineup was endless, and all I saw on the menus were like, pop, water, VODKA, gin, blahblahbalh. Hahah. I didn’t see any food there at first, cause there were so many people lining up. But afterwards, I went back and saw that there was some food on the counters, so I lined up and paid $5 = = for a big cookie and some Belgium Chocolates. AHAHAH. So expensive. But I was so hungry. =T

So basically, that was it. =) Time for homework.

I just realized that I didn’t post anything yesterday. So I’ll post about yesterday and today. =)

It was the regular day. French, Science, Math, and English. They were all pretty boring except for Science. In Science, we had a Physics Jeopardy to prepare us for the test on Magnetism tomorrow. >.> I need to study.

Well, that’s about it for yesterday. =T Today, we had our last class of square dancing! =D Hehe.

I made Shortbread in Foods. It was yummy and I got perfect. =D

In Art, we had to continue with the Peace Project. = =

In Socials, we had a sub and all we did was like read stuff and do questions and junk like that.

Tomorrow, I have a French Quiz, Science Test, and supposed to have a Math test but then I’m not gonna be there tomorrow cause I have a field trip, so I’m gonna miss it. But I’m gonna make it up on Friday after school. =( Haha. I wish it was an Omit. Oh well.

I FINISHED MY ENGLISH ESSAY! FINALLY! =D Haha. Took me long enough. = =

I need to color my Art Peace Project banner thingamabob. I’ll do that soon. I’m also gonna have a Foods Quiz on Thursday. The teachers just keep layering on the quizzes and tests before winter break. Sigh. Oh well.

Well, homework/studying time now. =)

Today was really a regular day. I’m watching Friends right now while typing this up. Hehe.

Anyways, today, in PE, we did the usual: square dancing. I was in a square of girls again. Haha. My group was really weird though. All the dance moves were all messed up. But it was okay. There’s only like, a couple of classes left, I think/hope.

In Foods, we had 2 demos because we only have 3 classes left. We had 2 choices: we could have had 1 demo today and then cook the next day and then the last day we had a demo but then don’t cook. The second option was having 2 demos today and cooking both of them. The class chose that one. So we get to make shortbread and jam thumbprint cookies. =D

In Art, we watched part of Singin’ In the Rain. It was kinda boring.

In Socials, it was like a free block. There was a video on but we weren’t even watching it. I was just busy writing in my agenda all the stuff I have to do for next week. So much stuff. >.> And then we had this uh… this lesson thingy. Well, we have to do a “project” for some lesson thing. =S

But everything was okay. I have to study for a Science test on Wednesday, and then kinda think about my English essay. What else… well, I’m going skating next Thursday, and then the English field trip on Wednesday, and the French project.

Yeahh. Well, gonna continue to watch Friends now.

People at school were like “Omg you’re crazy. Planning already?” “Wholy. They’re mental.” Aha. Well, it’s actually not that bad to plan so far ahead into the future. Of course, you might not get all the courses you want or something, but it motivated me to work harder and strive to get into university and everything. Of course, applying and stuff is like, 4 years from now, but still.

I’m starting to work harder to achieve my goals. People at school are thinking that we’re insane because we’re already planning for university and majoring in this and that and we’re only in Grade 9 and that it’s WAYYYYYY too early, but I don’t really think it is. I mean, at first, I did, but it’s really not.

Say for example, in Grade 4 or 5, I was like “Woww. High school seems so far away”, but here I am, in Grade 9 now. In high school. And now I’m like “Woww. University seems fo far away”, but hopefully, I’ll get into university, get a good job, be successful, and have a great life. =D

Woww. Seems like such a mature blog. O.o Haha. Okay. I’m done for now.

Arts has Entrepreneurship and Commerce has like Economics and stuff, I think. I’m not sure which one I should choose. Hmmmm… Well, I’ll just have to work hard and see where it takes me. xD Hehe.

So anyways, today… I woke up at 7:30 cause it was a Portfolio Day, took a shower, ate breakfast, and practiced some piano. Then jetted off to school. =)

Serena brought her UBC book so I took a look at it and then I saw that there’s Arts as well. I was looking at the Commerce section and saw the program options or something and it said (something like):

Major in third year
Minor in Arts or Science

And then some other stuff with it. I don’t wanna take Science, so I turned to the Art section. It said Entrepreneurship on there and I was like OOh OOh OOh! AHaha. But I’ll probably just try to get into Commerce. =)

French was the same old thing. Science was okay. We just did notes on Magnetism. And then Math was okay as well, we just learned some new stuff. I liked my notes. They were nice. =D AHA! And then in English, we saw one more presentation and then we started on the There Will Be Wolves essay. >.>

Then I went home. I should get started on my homework now.

There was a short day today because of parent/teacher conferences. We got off school at 2:20. It was a Friday schedule.

My new cell works now. =)

I have volunteering tomorrow, since it’s a pro d day.

I really wanna study business. =D It seems fun. Marketing, Entrepreneurship, all that kinda stuff. =D

I’m so lazy. I don’t wanna do any homework. I jsut wanna watch TV. =) I should go and do that afterwards.

Well, I’m gonna write some calendar thing and then watch TV.

Hehe. I’ve been thinking about taking something to do with business for my elective next year, and maybe the rest of the years. =D I like business. It seems really fun. I wanna take Marketing 11 next year, and then Business Information Management 11 in Grade 11, and then Entrepreneurship 12 or something like that in Grade 12. =D Hehe.

I made brownies today in Foods. They’re good, but you need to drink them with milk or you’ll get reallly thirsty.

I still have tomorrow’s homework to do. = = I should get started on that soon.

In PE today, we did square dancing again. My square was all girls. AHA! =) It was fun. We had this elimination thing and my group was like sooo freaked out that we were gonna make a mistake. We lasted the longest, almost near the end of the song, but then we bust. Haha. It was fun though.

I got a new cell phone today. =D Hehe. I like it.

Well, gonna work on some homework now.
