Grad Trip!
It sure did start out interesting though... About 20 mins past the turnoff the Ashcroft... Our bus broke down!! Oh YEA........ AWESOME start to the trip (note the sarcasm)... We were stuck outside for about... 20-30 mins, waiting for the new bus. It was alright... though Alex and Ryan disappeared for a bit... (we think they were living out their *Broback Mountain* dreams) Hahaha... Whatever!
Some interesting things happened.... Remi proposed to me! hahaha... so we're getting married! Whoooooo! That was interesting... we were outside of the Province/Vancouver Sun building... while we were there, we saw a Russian Dancer... we had some laughs watching him.
We went to the space center! Took a picture infront of the crab thingy... Haha.. pretty good picture! I'm choking RYAN!!!
We also went to the Capilano Bridge... Here's me... being overdramatic as usual.
Then there was PLAYLAND. First time i've been to playland, and it was awesome... I loved the wooden rollarcoaster (i've been on better though) and then me and Tonya went on Revelations (500ft in the air!)... Then me and Alex went on DropZone, that was awesome! I want to go again!

April 20.... 420
Doesn't mean the same thing to me though... Today is also my Grandmother's birthday... She grew up when Hitler was in Power... She herself has seen Hitler in person, never met him though.
She was telling me the other day, back in Germany, there was no School on April 20th, because it was Hitler's birthday. This was before WWII started.... Her mother, my Oma, sent her down to the market to pick something up. When she was walking down, there was this HUGE parade celebrating Hitler. Being a little girl... of maybe 6-10 (I'm not sure)... she goes up to one of the Soldiers, other wise known as the Nazis. "Today is my birthday!" She told him in German. The soldier chuckled. He then told her "Well, my dear, this parade is for you!" Now, being a little girl, my Grandma believed him, and she was so proud. She still spoke fondly of that memory... one of the few fond memories she has of that time...

Hold on to Your Hats Ladies and Gentlemen....
Well, on Monday... I got a letter from TRU.... It was an ACCEPTANCE letter!!!! I got accepted to the Bachelor's of Science!!!! Which is my second choice, but it was awesome! I was driving to Kamloops when my cell phone rang, and it was my mom telling me I had a letter. She opened it for me, and told me! SOOOO HAPPY
But, It gets even better!!!!
Today, Friday, I got another letter from TRU... It was another ACCEPTANCE letter!!!! I GOT accepted to Bachelor's of Science in NURSING!!!!!! It was my FIRST choice!!!! I am totally surprised, because 250 people apply for Nursing, and only 80 get in... I GOT IN.....
I was AGAIN, in Kamloops, this time taking a TRU tour and presentation. I talked to the DEAN of Nursing (wow, eh?) and she said she recognized my name.... (WOW!!!) So, I called home, and found out there was a letter there. My dad opened the letter, and it said I was ACCEPTED.... now, I have to get a FULL physical check, immunization check, stuff like that done... But, I DON'T care!!!
I cannot tell you how happy I am!!!! I really didn't think I would get in... but.. YAY!!!!!!!!!!!

A dream... I don't want it to become reality..
Now... I had a REALLY realistic dream last night (Wednesday Night).
It started with me at my locker, right before (what I'm guessing.. ) English Class. Remi comes up beside me, and is waiting for me, so we could walk down to class. (this is why I thought it was English... but it could also be Writing.. since those are the only classes we have together) While we're walking down the hall, I almost trip on that hole where the gate is, and we laugh about it... But as we get farther down the hall, I start to feel slightly dizzy.
Our class is waiting outside the room, because the door is locked. When we near them, I trip. And I land on the ground in an almost spread-eagle like position. Now, most of you know the grade 12 class... they all start laughing.... but the laughing is short lived. I don't move.
"Is she ok?" asked Bobbi. everyone falls silent.
Remi kneels beside me, and rolls me over. I'm pale... really pale. She checks my pulse... it's weak... "She's not breathing!!!!" The class starts to panic. "Someone get Mr Cole!" "Someone call 9-1-1!" Remi, being certified in CPR, starts giving me mouth to mouth. The shouts attract other teachers, Mrs Mertens, Mrs Campbell, and Ms Waddlegger. One (I'm not sure who..) gets Mr Cole, another (again not sure who..) calls 911. The remaining teacher ushers the students into the classroom.
I start to breath again, but I don't wake up. Mrs Waddlegger pushes Remi into the classroom, as Mr Cole is running (now that's a sight to see...) down the hallway. I'm still laying on the ground.
Within minutes, Ambulance sirens scream from outside. Mrs Campbell ushers them in from the main door. The two paramedics were Shannon and Phil (why weren't they my parents? hmmm....). They go to work, all the while panicking slightly, because I'm a co-workers daughter. The bag me (meaning the put that bag thing on my face, that helps me breathe), and place me on a stretcher. I'm put into the back of the Ambulance, and Shannon hops in the back with me. I'm still not awake. We leave, and we go, Lights and Sirens, to Kamloops.
I don't know what happens next... but the next thing I see, is me on a different stretcher, awake, with a doctor and a nurse beside me, and on top of the Royal Inland Hospitals roof, as a helicopter lands. They're air lifting me to the BC Women's Hospital in Vancouver.
The next thing I see, I'm in a room, staring out a window. I don't know how I knew, but I had cancer. I think it was stomach cancer. I was... waiting for surgery.
and then... I woke up.

Creepy Eh?
Well... Ok... I'm a nerd. I was bored, and I was looking around on random websites... Can Anyone explain this?
Have a history teacher explain this----- if they can.
Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.
Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.
Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.
Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.
Now it gets really weird.
Lincoln's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln.
Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.
Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.
John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.
Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.
Now hang on to your seat.
Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford'.
Kennedy was shot in a car called 'Lincoln' made by 'Ford'.
Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.
And here's the kicker.......
A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was with Marilyn Monroe.
Creepy huh?

"Kill Chrissy Trick"
In batons I have a four baton trick. Yes, a four baton trick! it is code named "Kill Chrissy Trick"
It starts out with me having one baton. I then throw it up, turn around, catch a baton from Jane, then turn back to the front and catch my orginal baton. I now have two batons (believe me... thats the easy part)! I then throw a baton to Sam, turn to the back throw a baton to Jane, catch a baton from Kassy, and then catch a baton from Serena.... all in a span of about... 2-3 secounds. (that is a four baton trick... i handled four batons in less then 5 seconds!) I then throw one baton up, and throw the other back, over my shoulder, to Kassy.
Sounds pretty dangerous, doesn't it? Well it is! Yesterday at practice, i went to catch a baton (which one? I'm not sure) and it came and hit me in the face!!!! Right from the left eye down to my chin. I have a small bruise right on the edge of my left eye, and a cut on my chin (from the hockey tape on the batons). The cut bled like crazy... we thought I might of needed stitches... So, Miss Martin put a neon yellow bandaid on it, and i went on my way. Stupid Kyle laughing at me :P

mmm... spare block
I'm supposed to be doing the grad video during this block... well I've had this block for almost a month now, and I have not done any of the video...
Why?
BECAUSE NO GRADS HAVE BROUGHT IN ANY BLOODY PICTURES.
Well, thats not true. Amanda and Mellisa has brought some.... but I still do not have enough to even think of starting the video.
Now, I know that alot of grads are in this Class... So... PLEASE if you read this... BRING IN SOME PICTURES.
Oh, I would also like suggestions for songs for the video... has to have no swearing etc.. (which totally ruins almost all the good songs out there)

My cousin...JASON!
2)Tower, from Sidney, B.C., assumed leadership of a military operation when his commander was killed, leading the troops safely out while under enemy fire.
3)Fitzgerald, from Morrisburg, Ont., drove a burning vehicle off a road so other vehicles in the convoy could escape enemy fire.
4)Denine, from St. John's, NL, manned his vehicle's exterior machine gun when the main cannon and machine gun malfunctioned, driving away enemy attackers.
5)Prohar helped launch a successful September 2006 counter-attack against the Taliban while working with U.S. special forces in southern Afghanistan.
6)Lamont, a medic, ran through enemy fire to check on a wounded colleague when his unit was ambushed in Afghanistan's Helmand province in July 2006.

geez... my hair is short...
After... on the right
When I first went in, I wanted her (my hairdresser) to take off... about 5 inches I guess...
That would be about a inch or so below my shoulders.
Did my hairdresser do that? NO. She cut my hair TOO short. It's right at my shoulders at the longest point... at my chin at the shortest point...
Now, she said that this length looks really good on me, and I think, yeah, it's alright... a BIG change from what I had, mind you...
When I got to school, everyone was surprised... I got alot of ... "it looks cute" ... Made me think... are you just saying that to be nice?
Well... It grows back right? hahaha... so, come June (four months and 10 days till GRAD!!!) hopefully my hair will have grown two inches or so... it should! My hair does grow pretty fast... It grew about four inches between September and February...

Yet again... BATONS
Haha... well, I absolutely hate the fact, that now that I'm a senior twirler and one of the better ones in the group, I have to teach the little kids! I get no fricking time to practice my own routines..
Like.. HELLO? Me and Sam are supposed to do a Duet (different from Pairs)! We have not even started it... because Miss Martin does NOT give us time. What are we supposed to do? Does she expect us to have EXCELLENCE, and move up to BI if she doesn't give us time to practice? Does she expect us to do EVERYTHING on our own time? Look, I don't fricking care, I'm not a coach. I should not have to do all their routines.

Baton... Workshop...
This weekend... was long...
We had a baton workshop this weekend. And boy.... did we work hard... REALLY HARD... after the workshop was done... I counted how many new brusies I had... my count came to 39 (most of which are on my legs and back)... and thats not counting my wrist which swelled to three times it's size (your fault Jane).
We first worked on our major group routine, Lady Hawke. It's a 8 minute routine. We changed alot of it... and gave me a FOUR baton trick. COME ON... do you know what they called it? My four baton is called "The Kill Chrissy Trick"... and it's SCARY. Also, in this routine, there's a short dancing part... hahaha... we were trying to teach Jane it... and Kassy had to yell out.. "NO! Don't THRUST!" ... we all almost died from laughing.
The next thing I worked on was my little girls' team Super Girl. Totally awesome!!! They have to do the Moonwalk! But... it is a little easy, so I might change some things.
After that, we worked on my Freestylem, She's Got the Look. Now... that's SCARY as well... There's this trick where I toss, spin, do a leap, turn, and catch under my leg in a kick... I caught it though! It looks great, but it's SCARY. I do some other freaky things as well... But I guess it won't be so bad after I have some time to practice it.My pairs (with Sam), You Can't Stop the Beat, came next. It is soooo fast, we're probally going to pass out half way through it. And... for Sam... really scary! She has some pretty scary tricks, with my supporting her. There's the cartwheel... and theres the roll over my back... Hahaha... I guess it's revenge over the "Kill Chrissy Trick" *evil laugh*
The next day... We worked on they Senior team Stayin' Alive... some of that is scary as well... but not that bad... There's this scary exchanfe in which Kassy (not looking) throws behind her, and I fall to the ground, do a fan roll, then catch. I haven't caught it yet, but at least I'm not a litte chicken **** like Pheadra, and I at least try.
My last thing for the work shop was Life is a Highway. We didn't quite finish it, but we added alot! Some of that is fun... I have to do some pretty wacky tosses into it... And the cartwheels are interesting. It's really fun! I love this routine.
Well... that pretty much sums up our baton workshop... We'll be having another one next month... Which is scary!

I enjoyed going to this class, because I knew alot of the kids, and we got to play with them!
AS seen in the picture... theres me in the middle... Brenden on my right.. Topanga behind me... and Brent on my left.
Brent is the cutest little guy... and no matter what KASSY says, He's my boyfriend, not hers.

Chemistry..
...Now what can be good about Chemistry? Hahaha.. everything is bad about Chemistry.
As of 3:00p.m. Wednesday January 31, 2007, I have officially finished Chemistry 11! That's the good thing! The Exam wasn't that long.. 15 pages... but the questions took awhile! I wasn't finished one question when time ran out. Oh well... hahaha... I didn't know how to do it anyway... Dissociation sucks! On the rest of the questions, I think I did awesome! We shall see when I get the marks back...
Now, the bad thing. Chemistry 12 is not being offered at my school. I don't necessarily need it... it's just 'highly recommended' that I take it for the Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. So... I'll either take if through correspondence, or through e-learning. I'm hoping e-learning. So... no matter what... this new semester should be interesting.
UPDATE: I got 76% on the EXAM.. totally awesome!

Pre-school!
Well... on January 21, the Family Mangement class went down to the local Preschool, and played with the kids! As seen in the picture beside this, I'm painting with a little girl named Eden! I loved her to bits, she was one of the cutest kids, and loved to paint!
After staying in class for a while, we went down to the gym, and had a "snowball fight"... We used newspaper! The little kids totally won! They attacked me a couple times, and then, jumped on me! As seen in the picture beside this, Eden is on top of me!
Heres a close up of the dogpile... I'm still stuck on the bottem! Eden is throwing a "snowball" in my face, while Wyatt (the cutest little boy!) is there, also throwing a "snowball" at me... after this was taken, Wyatt jumped on me too!
Well.... How is it remotely fair that It's always me on the bottom of a dogpile? With little kids, OK, I understand, and at least I can breathe with them ontop of me.... But REMI? Come on! That was a little cruel. Do you think I can breathe? Uh.. NO.....
