Sorry...

Sorry, that I haven't been posting this week. I have a project that is due tomorrow so that is why I was busy the whole week trying to finish it. This project is for science and we had to make a simple water filter using filteration materials. The filteration materials is your choice but it has to be able to filter dirt mixed with water. I used sink filter, coffee filters, sand, rocks, gravel, aquarium sponge, activated carbon and spice bags. I hope that I will be sucessful and will be able to create a good filter and I hope that it will get a good mark.

Today was Milk Day so we got a carton of milk for free. Last year, they handed out white milk but this year, it is chocolate milk. It tasted like cold hot chocolate, which is one of my favourite drinks. Also, today was the first lesson for yoga. It was very relaxing because near the end of the class, we got lie down on our mats and forget everything that happened. It was also the same teacher as last year and it was also at lunch recess.

PA DAY!!!

Yesturday was my mom's birthday and she had lessons to go to. Mom, here is the missed birthday song: Happy Birthday to You, Happy Birthday To You, Happy Birthday to Dodo, Happy Birthday to You!!! :)

Also, I didn't get any ribbons this year in the Terry Fox Run but I was in 7th place. This year, instead of handing out the top 10, it was the top six so no ribbons. :( The total distance we had to run was 2200 metres and it was extremely tiring because there was also hills too. When you run up a hill, you need speed and big steps while going downhill, you will need small steps and slower speed.

Marathon of Hope!!!

Tomorrow is the Terry Fox/Cross Country Run and I hope that I will be getting a ribbon because the top ten who finishes first will be recieving a ribbon. It is the similar to the ones we get for Track and Field except it says Cross Country instead. Wish me good luck!!!

Friday is a PA Day and that means I won't have to go to school but the bad news is that I will still have to go to math class... BOO!!!

Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatball

Yesterday, my dad and me went to Silvercity Cinema to watch Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs and it was also in 3D too. I think that this movie is really good because there is meatballs falling from the sky and sometimes, the meatballs fly into you which makes it really really cool. I would recommend this movie because I think that it is because it is as good as the ones I watched before and because it is a hit in my school.
The movie is about a scientist inventing a machine that changes water to food. Since the place where he lived in only ate sardines for food, many of the habitants living there was requesting so much food that a problem came up...
Today is the third week of school and I already have two projects coming up.

Chinese School!!!

I will be going to chinese school today and it will be the second day of chinese school. A few weeks later, there will be my first chinese dictation. Also yesterday in my math class, I have learned scientific notation, exponents and divisibilty rules.

I have been learning to play clarinet for about a year now and I want to join the wind ensemble this year. Since I am renting an instrument, that means I am automatically in the band. Also, I am currently on the announcement team and the integrity team. I will be doing announcements for the entire school in the morning for a whole month starting on January 2010. I am so excited because only grade 8's get to be in the announcement team and I am also feeling very honored to be in it.

Clarinet!!!

Yesturday, my dad and me went to Cosmo Music to rent my clarinet. I will be using this one instead of the school which means that I won't have to share with other students and also, it will be free of any spit. I hope that I will remember what I learned last year!!!

Second week of school!!!

Today is the start of the second week. I have not a lot of homework but we had a quiz today for math. I got perfect on it since it was all review for me and the topic was on graphing numbers. For dinner, dad will be making fuzzy squash with eggs and we will also be drinking fuzzy squash soup. It will be as delicious as the ones in Hong Kong because we grew it ourselves so it will be more fresh and "sweet".
