Well I know I haven’t written a post in such a long time, so I thought I should write one before the year ends. We have exams starting at the end of this week. We have one on Friday, Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Then we have no school on Thursday so our teachers can finish our report cards, and on Friday is the end-of-year assembly. I only have to write one exam (I think) because I got exempted from the other 3. Although we don’t find out of exemptions until tomorrow, I’m pretty sure I only have to write my LA exam.
This coming weekend is also Grad. My brother is graduating this year (:D) so I have to go to the pictures, the ceremony, the supper, and the social. Grad is pretty fun, and my friend Katie’s sister is also graduating so I will be with her for some time. Some of my family is coming in but not many of my cousins because they also have to write exams.
I am also having family coming in later, but not until after grad for their annual fishing trip that all my uncles go on every year. The girls all stay back and bake and watch movies and stuff like that. For the rest of my summer, I will probably be going out of town to my grandma’s and maybe Winnipeg, nowhere fancy. In the summer I usually tan outside, go swimming, tubing sometimes, that kind of stuff.
Well, this could be the last post of mine this year, so have a good summer and see you next year!

This weekend was pretty fun for me. On Friday, I hung out with some of my friends. We watched some fireworks that were going on that night, walked around town, and went for ice cream. But because we’re girls, there was a little bit of drama for a while but it cleared up.
On Saturday, there was a dance called semi-formal. Its a dance that we have at our school. But this dance is a bit different than the other ones we have at our school. This is the one chance that people have where they can dress up, and most people take it. I got ready with my friend Elaine at her house, and as everyone says, getting ready is half the fun. Then we showed up to the dance together. It went from 7-10 pm. After the dance, me and some friends walked around for a bit, but they went out and I went home.
Well, silent reading is over now so I better go do some work. Bye!

I know its a little early to talk about the weekend, but I have nothing else to say, so I might as well.
This weekend, I am going to my Grandma and Grandpa’s house in Holland, Manitoba. Its a small town about an hour to two hours away from Winnipeg. Its kind of an old people town so we don’t have much to do there, but its just good to see them. Also on this trip we will be spending a day in the city to get grad outfits and whatnot since my brother’s grad is in June.
My whole family except for my sister and the dog will be traveling there on Friday after my mom is done work at 5 because she can’t get time off. Its about a 7 to 8 hour drive so we won’t get there til late. The next day, we are going to Winnipeg to shop. It sucks though because I only have a few hours to get everything I want/need, and trust me I have a long list.
When we get back to Holland on Saturday night we will just be hanging out and spending time with them because my grandpa is in the hospital lots so we don’t see him often. Then the next day is when we will have our family supper. My aunty, uncle, and 2 cousins will be coming in from Morden, and my aunty and uncle from Cartwright will be coming in too. My other 2 older cousins might not be coming in since one lives in Calgary I think and the other is going to have her baby in the next week or so, but I’m hoping she comes in because I haven’t seen her in a long time and I’m hoping she might already have the baby.
We are leaving on Monday, so I won’t be in school, and then the next day my class doesn’t have school so I get two days off, and then the next day we get out early. Also, I know its a long time from now, but my sister and my mom have to go into Winnipeg for like 5 or 6 days for my sister’s braces, so I will have the house to myself! Except for my brother though. But that’s okay. And he will be gone one day so I think I’m going to get a friend to sleep at the house with me, we’ll see what happens.
Well, silent reading is almost over, so I hope your weekend is going to be as good as mine!

This week of school has been pretty boring for me, and today is the day when I get nervous. On Monday and Tuesday, we presented our TEDTalks projects. It continues today, and today is my day. I was supposed to go first, but then we didn’t have time to finish them all yesterday, so now Shyla is going ahead of me. It wouldn’t really matter to me if I went first anyways.
Other than the TEDTalks projects, we have been doing 2 sets of blogposts each week (it only started last week though). This week we have been looking at questions about us as teenagers. You can check out the questions here.
We just finished a math unit as well. We had a test yesterday. It was about surface area and volume.
Well, silent reading is about over, so I should sign off now. Bye!

Today is Monday April 7th, the day after Spring Break. Everyone is tired, lazy, and just wishing their mom would have let them stay home today. But in our classroom, it is just a normal day, with silent reading first as usual.
My spring break was extremely boring, since most of my friends were out of town. I went to Thompson and stayed the night, and that was okay. The strangest part of it was the drive home. We picked up these strangers because they flipped their car. It was a woman and her 2 little kids. They had to stay at my house for like 2 hours because her friend didn’t start driving until like an hour after we called.
The rest of my spring break made me happy because although i was alone, my room got painted! I’m so happy that it did. My bedspread should be coming in soon, and my dad is almost done putting the trim and baseboards on.
Well, silent reading time is almost over, so I should probably sign off now.

Well, my past week has been waaay too boring for my liking. Although it kinda had to be. I have been grounded since Tuesday last week. On Friday I was allowed to go out for supper with my friend Logyn and then I went in the Adult Cordwood with my friends Logyn, Paige, and Ashley. We won 1 game and lost 2. I was the second, Paige was lead, Logyn was third, and Ashley was skip. I had to go home right after though.
On Saturday I had to babysit at 7 until about 2 in the morning. It was boring and I fell asleep for like a half hour, but I got paid $35 bucks so I guess it wasn’t that bad.
This week should be okay because I think I’m ungrounded, but if I’m not I won’t be too happy. This week is also Spirit Week: today is bedhead and pajama day, tomorrow is decade day, Wednesday is inside-out and backwards day, Thursday is western day, and Friday is class colour day but we have no school.
Well, silent reading is pretty much over so I should probably sign off now. I’ll write again soon, maybe next week though. I feel like actually reading a book during silent reading time. Bye!

As the title probably explains, parent teacher interviews (AKA 3-way conferences with the teacher, parent, and student but no one calls them that because hardly any student comes in) are coming up, which means almost an extra day off school (we got out at 1030) for everyone in grades K-8. We’re all pretty happy about it. Some kids in my class don’t even come to school on days like these, but I do because my mom makes me mostly 
This time, I don’t know if I’m going to come to school because I’ve been feeling horrible all week, I think i have a stomach flu or something. I’ve also had bad headaches, so bad I could barely keep my eyes open in class.
So what else can I talk about? Oh yeah, we got our report cards yesterday. I’m doing pretty good in everything.
Next week we get Friday off because its Good Friday. I’m excited for that. So I can sleep in. I haven’t been getting very much sleep lately, but I don’t know why.
Well, silent reading time is almost over, so I should probably sign off now, bye.
