Fencing!

Fencing was soooooo much fun!!! Two of my favourite things, poking people and not being the criminal because that's what we're supposed to do, POKE!! Yay! So very fun. :) The glove I got was EXTREMELY stinky though. I can still smell that disgusting smell lingering in my nose... It's not pleasant. Some people got non-smelly gloves so when they sniffed their hand, they didn't faint. When I smelt mine through the helmet when I was desperately trying to relieve the itch on my face that was caused by my bangs, I felt like throwing up. Very VERY stinky. :( Other than that, everything was as fun as sliding down a hill with a penguin! I was no good at fencing to be honest. I could never poke the person in the right place... I kept poking the legs and once almost poked their neck. Yes, I'm lethal. :) I learned another very important thing today. I'm not good at Simon Says. I kept moving when there was no Simon Says... The funny thing is that it happened at the exact same situations. We had to do push ups if we made a mistake... A lot of push ups for me that time. :) It was fun. A LOT of fun. :) Maybe i should take fencing on my own time. That is if I can find time in my BUSY schedule. :)

Another Finishing Plan

See, I'm still planning. :) This time it's for the socials project though. My group's presenting next Wednesday. At least that's what I wrote down. I'm planning much ahead now. :) So here's what I have so far. Tomorrow I hand in the notes to a partner while the other partner is handing it in on Wednesday. The first partner I was talking about will have Tuesday to do the brochure part that needs the notes I given her and Wednesday vise versa. Wednesday at lunch, I will have my own notes back and I'll so a bit on the presentation and the bibliography. On Thursday, all the notes will be back to me and I'll keep working on the bibliography and presentation with the sencon partner I mentioned. All the links will be with me probably then too. On Friday, the brochure will be done and the presentation will be finished on that day. Hopefully we'll squeeze in some practice time to practice it. On Sunday it would be ALL PRACTICE! Then Tuesday at lunch we're meeting to do a quick review. That's the day before we present and we would've practiced at Wednesday lunch but there's the new schedule timetable switch. Honestly, I like this one a whole lot more than the last one. But the first timetable was the absolute BEST! :)

At Last, It's Done

Finally, my science fair project is done and over with. A long time of work has come to an end. FINALLY! I don't know if the quality is the best but I did work very hard on it. The display isn't flashy or anything and there's not a lot of writing. I kinda ran out of things to write about. Especially on the abstract. I was so afraid of the summary going over the one page limit that I shortened it a bit too much. It's barely a page long and with a HUGE font. Oops. There's no time to change it though and it covers what happened kinda well so I don't think I have to add anything right? I just want to forget about it at the moment. I should be thinking about how I'm going to carry it inside. Let's see, backpack, lunch, violin, and a HUGE display board. I'm going to be covered with bruises by the end of the day. After all the science fair stuff is over with, I have to quickly post all of the replies to the brain project, post on the forum because I didn't do much of that yet, and of course the religion project. I'm so busy now!! So very tired at the moment. I don't want to think about anything anymore, I just want to sleep... I'll make a plan for tomorrow after I find out what tomorrow's homework is. Planning is pretty helpful actually. Thank you Go Program for teaching me the fine art of planning. :)

A Tiring Day of Work

I'm finally beginning to understand why my mom is always complaining about how tiring work is sometimes. It is very tiring. To be honest, I barely moved today. I pretty much just sat in one spot working on my science fair. I'm pretty on schedule but a little behind. I finished all the writing except for the abstract and the bibliography. I don't think we have to include photos in our bibliographies right? I hope not. The display is 1 third done. I finished decroating the things that I have to post and now all I have to do is stick it onto the board and colour the pictures and background. At the moment, I feel like I have just died, relived, then died again. If only I finished everything today. If only, if only. Time to make another schedule. In the morning, finish pasting all of the things onto the board and print out the bibliography. In the afternoon, I finish all the colouring and the abstract which shouldn't take that long. If my calculations are correct, I'll finish around 4pm. Wow, I sounded so scientific just then. Maybe I am getting smarter! :) Yay~

My Finishing Plan

Not the best operation title but it does sort of explain what I have to do. Finish the science fair project!!! I finished part of it today but not a lot. Not a lot at all. Today I only finished the problem, and the hypothesis. I started on the method and results but I'm not sure if we're allowed to use bullet points for that... Tomorrow I have to finish almost everything! In the morning I'll finish almost all of the writing stuff. That way, in the afternoon I can just focus on the display! Good plan, good plan. Then if I didn't finish all of it, I still have Sunday to work on it! Yay for planning things out! Thank you Go Program. Ever since we started soing the Go Program, I started planning my day more instead of just going around not having a clue on what to do next! My goal for the weekend is to finish the science fair project by Sunday morning and have the afternoon to work on my socials religion project that is also due in about one and a half weeks. That still leaves a little bit of time for relaxation. Ok, I got it ALL PLANNED out now. :)

The Penguin Empire

I think it's time to tell you about... my DOUBLE LIFE!! Gasp! Yes, it's true. In class I'm an ordinary student but when the bell rings, I become the EMPEROR of the PENGUINS!!! Yes, I am royalty! The history of the empire is actually pretty short. :) Let's see, there was the creation by me the might emperor. All was so peaceful until the penguin rebellion! It didn't last very long, don't worry. I settled it like any emperor should. Beg for mercy. :) We have come to the agreement that I am the EMPEROR and my friend, who by the way LED the rebellion, is now the EMPRESS. The roles are pretty simple. She's the smart one that handles "political" matters and I'm the one who gets the ice cream for after. We usually get sardine sorbet. Mmmm. Remember, we're penguins. :) Then the most horrible happened. The Polar Bear vs Penguin WAR!!!! This is still happening so beware of any polar bears is you're a fellow penguin. Me and the Empress thought we took care of everything by sending them to Pluto but no, they're BACK!! The result is yet to come... Cheer on you're fellow penguins soldiers!!! :)

Gymnastics ROUTINE!

This actually happened yesterday just to be clear. I just usually blog what happened a day later. :) Technically, I wasn't prepared to go yesterday. I only finished writing down the moves and drawing the floor plan. I was no where near memorizing it. My memorization skills match a little cricket's so I CANNOT remember things unless I write it on the back of my hand. That would've been a "good" plan. :) After seeing my PE teacher so mad at everyone for not being prepared, I ended up being one of the 10 people that were "ready" to go that day. I completely forgot about one the moves and forgot about the floor plan. Which basically means I left out one move and started making stuff up along the way. I think that's worth at least a low B or a high C+ right? It's ok, I'll just keep on living thinking that. :) I don't need the details. :) At least I don't have to worry about it anymore. Now I can just look forward to fencing on Friday! It's my dream! Getting marked for poking people with a sword! Is that fun or what? It's or what. It's going to be MORE than just FUN. It's going to be like partying with a bunch of penguins! Very fun!! :)
