Today was day 3 at Mt. Doug. It went much better than yesterday, when the bus didn't even stop and we were late for school. Today I had leadership and took an earlier bus. And it only took about 20 min! I paid my fees, got my locker and experienced my first leadership class at Mt. Doug and it's already so much better and much more organized than at ( Read more... )

Wow, ça fait longtemps que je n'ai pas écrit dans ce journal. L'école est terminé, les examens aussi. J'ai fait Folk Fest... ubervolunteerism, mais ça en valait la peine (10 minutes, Ukrainian dance, Hungarian Guy...), en plus d'y danser avec les Cornouillers pour la Fête du Canada! Ensuite j'ai fait Junior Leader à un camp du CPAC pendant une ( Read more... )

I have just returned from a long weekend of field hockey. My league team "Rockpile" was playing in the U16 Club championship tournament this weekend in Mill Bay. We played hard, even without our coaches and we managed to place third. Go team! Holly made an excellent rockpile, if anyone asks! I have lots more to say, but I won't say it. I'm glad I ( Read more... )

I've just returned from the annual Victoria concours d'art oratoire... and guess what?? I won. But by default. But hey like Nevac says: "It's fun to win by default!". Tessa and I were the only francophones period. The grades 8-10 weren't too bad, but it's immersion. What more do I have to say. Ewww. Mr. Robbi was there. He's so incredibly ( Read more... )

OOOOOh shiny! Take this test, it's fun.

Cr...Chromium
You scored 28 Mass, 17 Electronegativity, 87 Metal, and 0 Radioactivity!

Oooohaaaaah.... shiny! You probably have an incredibly stable and well-maintained group of friends... that probably also don't get out much either. You're not one to get bogged down by a problem. Of course, I'm basing ( Read more... )

I'm angry. For once I had finish my science project at a resonable hour, having spent all day working on it. I ask my mom if it's ok if I practice my cello. She says it's fine. Two minutes ago she comes down and starts yelling at me in a whisper about how she's so tired and she can't sleep because I'm playing. I hate that so much. She had such a ( Read more... )

It's already Sunday night and another week of school is about to begin. But OMG it's the last week before Spring Break!!! So excited not to have to get up early, take the bus forever, go to school, take the bus forever and do tons of homework. I'll be able to sleep and do lots of Spanish! On Friday I went to Mt. Doug with my mom to see the ( Read more... )

We finally had the Barn Dance with the Conservatory Fiddles on Sat. No I wasn't playing but same as last year the Cornouillers danced and Séverin called some dances. However, this year, we got to do our Nanaimo show again and it went purrfectly! It was fun and it brought back memories from last year and when I became good friends with Jason. But I ( Read more... )

Just got an email from Jason and it turns out it cost $193 to repair his violin. Ouch. And on top of that he agreed to go to some birthday party on Saturday because he forgot the barndance was this week. He's trying to get out of it but I'm a little skeptical. As long as he's there, playing and everything else goes alright, I'll be pleased. I'm ( Read more... )
