Gladiator!

Today we finally finished the movie Gladiator for our Social Studies class! It took us three classes to finish the whole movie! It was a very good movie though. The protagonist is Maximus, a general royal to the empire of Rome. Emperor Marcus Aurelius trusted him and wanted him to take over his power after he dies (the emperor was really old and dying), but he is murdered by his son Commodus who is very jealous of Maximus. Maximus rebelled against Commodus and was sentenced to death. But he escaped successfully. When he got back to his home, he was heart-broken at the sight of the ruin. His son and his wife were murdered by a troop of army sent by Commodus. Maximus fainted but a slave trader picked him up and sold him at the market. A gladiator trainer bought Maximus and he was amused at how Maximus can fight. People call him the " Spaniard" and they praised his fighting skills. Once they get to the city of Rome, Maximus was persuaded by Commodus' sister Lucia to kill Commodus. They were fed up by Commodus' rotten rules, and soon Maximus decided to take action...anyway, I will leave the rest of the movie up to you. It's a really sad movie, but I love it very much.

Oooo...I Am Just So Excited

Today is the day when we are going to have our Christmas program at my church! I am so excited. Of course, there will be a Bible presentation and the choirs will go up on the stage and sing Christmas Carols (I am in the choir also). After the presentation there will be a turkey dinner following downstairs. I am bringing Carina over as a guest and I think we will have a great time there. It's a tradition at our church to hold a Christmas dinner annually in honor of Jesus's birth. So far I have been to two. There's not much of a difference between each one-----there's always the presentation and the dinner. But this year, I finally get to be the host! Woohoo! One of my friends from Sexsmith will also accompany me as the other host as well. We have been doing weekly rehearsals since last month! Well today our hard work is finally gonna pay off. I think the whole thing will start at about 5:00 and end at about 8:30 or probably 9:00 or something like that. I just can't wait to go there!

Wow------Tonnes of Homework!

Tonight I have a lot of homework to finish, because I don't have any time tomorrow, due to a Christmas program we are going to have. I only have science homework to do, but that's still a lot of work to finish. I mean, I have got the pathogen comic strip and the science fair checkup! Oh noooooooo, the science fair checkup...I am so dooooooooomed. I haven't done anything yet except filing the import application form! Argggh...wait, wait! It says right here on the sheet that I can explain the reason! Hooray! I AM SAVED! What about the comic strip? Oh yeah...I have already done half of it, I just need to draw the other half of the comic strip and color it... But really it's not that hard to finish everything. Drawing is really easy for me because somehow I just have that kind of talent to draw whatever I want (quit bragging, you!) Anyway. Gotta go to work now! Oh, I almost forgot, I need to finish the Go Book and the quiz also!

Finally------The End of the Week!

Friday has always been one of my favorite days of the week. And today's finally the day once again! Woohoo! Today when I came home, I just popped on the couch and started watching Law & Order: SVU. Ahh. It was soooooo relaxing! While I was munching on a bag of cheese nacho chips, I also doodled (It's one of my favorite hobbies!). Anyway. When my mom came home I was so excited, because today it's the day she goes shopping and she brought home many yummy food (there's nothing better than yummy food in this world). I fed hungrily on the fresh grapes and was about to move onto the cookies, my mom told me to stop. "Soon you will get obese, you know. And I am NOT gonna buy food to make you loose your appetite when it's dinner time" she went on and on. Haha. That's just like her typical self. I wonder what I should do for the evening. But I will definitely do something really fun. I mean, it's not like we get Fridays every day!

Oh No!

My science project is NOT going too well. I had to import termites and I need that permission form...but I have waited for such a long time and they still won't give it to me. I checked my dad's mail everyday, and found nothing. Today when I came home and checked my dad's email (I go on his account all the time), I found a new message. I was so excited, because I thought I would FINALLY get my permission form. But nooooooo, I didn't. Instead, it was a message from the department telling me that I need to complete ANOTHER application form (I think it was the" plant protection" application or something like that) and forward it to the department in Ottawa! Now this is getting complicated. I had NO IDEA it would become this way. I reply to the email and asked why I needed to fill out another application form. Hopefully I will get a response by the end of this week. They are just too slow!

Picture-Siggy

Relaxxxx...

Today we have no homework or anything else to do, so I have got plenty of free time. Ahhhh! It's so nice for a change------I usually work A LOT these days. It's slowly killing me... Enough. So today I made a little plan of what I am going to do for the rest of the evening. Actually, there's not a lot to do------I am gonna spend two hours watching my favorite TV show------Criminal Minds. Oooo I just love Criminal Minds! And on Wednesday they usually play two episodes in a row! Woohoo! At 7:00 I am gonna have my dinner and wash the dishes until 8:30, so I have about an hour and 30 minutes left. I have decided to work on my Sale Clan signatures (I have five clan member and I need to make a different siggy for each of them) in Photoshop. So that's about it. Oh! When will I get another day like this! Hmm, perhaps during the winter holidays :)
