Last Day of Elementary School ):

I can't believe that tomorrow is the last day of school and it is also a half day. Elementary school does past by very fast. I hope that high school will be just as fast.

Today, I got my diploma along with my report card. My report card was pretty good. Similar to my first term marks so I was really happy. Also, my music mark raised by three percent. It is no longer a 85% but a 88%. I am so happy about my music mark!!! Sadly after getting my diploma, it means that I will no longer go to elementary school but to high school. ):

Grad photos




I finally graduated!!! :D
I can't believe that next year, I will be in high school. It seems like it was still days ago when I got transfered to this school and in a blink of an eye, I'm in high school already. :O
A few more years until I graduate from high school. I wonder if it will also past as fast as a blink of an eye.
I can't believe that

Graduation!!!

Today is finally the day… the day where I am going to graduate.

We get a half day off since teachers need time to help set up the place where we will be having our graduation ceremony so they want us out of there way so we won’t bother them while they do their decorations. Also, they want us to give us time so that we could pretty up ourselves.

I got a new program that helps me edit stuff on my blog so now I am testing it out and see how it looks like and what it does. This seems interesting and useful since I can change way more fonts than before and also I think I can insert photo albums? I am not sure. Will post pictures of tonight and post it as a photo album later. I will see if it works. –fingers crossed- hope it works. ^-^

I got my hair set up and took a mini photo shoot with my mom since she thinks I look cute. So here is a bunch of pictures of me “modeling” with the new hair style.

2 days left... :D

Two more days until graduation... and I can't wait. That means I am no longer an elementary student but a high school student. AWESOME! We will be holding our graduation ceremony at Pierre Elliot Trudeau High School. Thursday will be a busy day for us...

First we will walk to the high school to help set up and do a last rehearsal. Then we get dismissed at the high school and have about a half day off for us to decorate and get ready for that night's event.

During the grad, there will be the actual ceremony, a buffet dinner (i think) and a dance just for the graduates. It will be a FUN day!

My Birthday!!!



Today is my birthday!! :D I had an awesome day even though my arms hurt from all the birthday beats I had recieved from my friends. One for each year and since I am 14 years old, then I get 14 beats or punches times a lot of friends. My arm is soo sore now. ): Oh wells, at least it is once in a year.... but wait, some of my friends missed my birthday today so that means I will either get it tomorrow or on monday.

Tonight was a good dinner. A 6lbs lobster :D YUMMY. The video says all... ;D

Women's Camp Volunteer Stuff




Today, we went to a Salvation Army Conference Centre to do volunteer work. We had to teach dance to women volunteers who work for Salvation Army all across Ontario. There was people from toronto, etobicoke, london, etc. It was a lot of fun and we had a great time even though it was all adults and I was the youngest one there but I wasn't the only one that went. Mom also went too.

Art's Night Performance

Yesturday was sooo much fun. We got to perform eight songs and this was also the last performance we will be playing ever again as Castlemore's Wind Ensemble. Some of the songs we played, you might recognize. The songs we played were My Heart Will Go On, Edelwiss, Last Voyage of Queen Anne's Revenge, Pirates of the Carribean, Chorale 156, Beauty and The Beast, Eye of The Tiger, and our favourite song; Legend Of Castle Armagh. The last song we played was the Legend of Castle Armagh and we even got Mrs. Scibberas (our teacher) very emotional. The gym was as always, very beautiful and filled with many amazing pieces of art. I found all three of my paintings since all of the grade eight's and a few grade seven's paintings were displayed. Afterward, we wrote on Mrs. Scibberas board and saying thanks to her for all her efforts. I will definetely miss her because she has certainly taught us a lot. She organized workshops for us to work on our playying and also found great pieces for us to play. In addition, a grade nine music teacher from my future high school also came and helped us tweak our music to make it the best as possible and to bring out the potiental in us.
Here is a video of the song Legend of Castle Armagh. The middle part of the song was cut because dad thought that the song ended and also I was looking for the sheet of music so he thought it ended when it actually didn't. We just had a short break while the drums played because it started off with a slow tempo and then gradually getting to a faster tempo then going back to slow. There is four parts to this song and it also tells a story. In the beginning, it talks about the place where the Castle is. Then it talks about going into the Hall of the Nobles where Kings and Queens gather together to feast or to talk about stuff. In the part where it got cut off was suppose to be a battle between an enemy. In the end is celebrating the victory of the battle and also the proud of the victory. I hope that you can figure out the story by listening and watching the video.

Art's Night

Tomorrow will be a busy day for me because first of all, it is Art's Night. Its a show in where we perform are talents to the parents. There will be paintings displayed, bands playing, dancers dancing, etc. In the morning, a lot of time will be taken away from school to rehearse for the show so I won't be having a lot of lessons tomorrow. Also, tomorrow is when our class gets to practice for our graduation. We will be practicing how to walk and the order we have to sit in, and etc. Tomorrow will be a busy week. :O

Also, I have handed in all my art work right on time. I handed it on the June 1st and the teacher had changed the due date to June 4th. But a lot of my classmates were still not done so I have nothing to do now. I'm kinda glad that I finished it early because he was getting a bit mad at the people that weren't finished. In addition, I did some more changes to the giraffe painting. There is some different lightings on the giraffe and more evident and bright looking clouds. I hope that all my art pieces will get a good mark on it.

Fun Fair!!!



I'm so excited for tomorrow because there will be a fun fair and I will be helping out. Also, the parents have asked the Wind Ensemble to play during the fun fair and since I am in it, that means I will have to perform.
The weather report said that it might rain tomorrow but I am hoping it won't because that would ruin the fun fair. That means we will have to move it indoors like one year when it rain.
The picture that is up there is just another picture I took. Its for a music assignment I'm doing so I just chose this picture and decided to upload it onto my blog. Seems like a long time since I haven't upload a good picture of myself. ;p
Time for Countdown to birthday: 15 days :)
