Second Post for November XD

" in Flanders Fields the poppies grow... " as we hear the sad poem of soldiers dying for our rights, we remember the war, the blood, and the brave men and women who went over to fight for our freedom. It's sad to think we had to fight twice (ww1 and 2) just to gain what was supposed to be ours already. My grandma and grandpa ( my mom's parents- both) went and fought with Japan. They didn't die from the war, but when my mom was growing up she didn't have her parents. She was 8 at the time. Her sister was in university, and she had to take care of herself. It's not like her brothers are any help! I don't actually know much about my grandparents( they died before i was born) and my mom don't like to talk too much about them. I did see some pictures of them in china, in their military uniforms. My mom hates Japan now.
Today soldiers are over in afghanistan, people worrying about them. This is a chance to remember. Remembrance Day. :)

First Post for November ..

FIRST POST FOR NOVEMBERRR!!! WHOOOOO!!! I GOT A NEW PHONE :D!! It's not much different from my old one though... sighh... This month at my school we have a thing called "Movember". Mr. Leavitt, Mr. Busby and Mr. Szentes ( is that how you spell it? ) are growing moustaches!! I'm not looking forward to see their end product O: They're growing it to raise money ( we have to donate $1) for a cancer called prostate cancer. Many men are dying from it... )': byeee~

STEREOS !!!! (:

Today at Markville Mall my favourite band Stereos was signing autographs! I went (obviously) and two friends I dragged along, Tracy and Jenny, went as well. I had bought their C.D., and as I arrived at Markville Mall I was excited as ever! (: After a while they finally came out( we had waited for approximately 1 and half hours) and I started screaming! They signed my stuff, and when I reached Pat ( the lead singer) he said Hi to me! Inside I was soo happy, and managed to say a Hi back (: After they all signed my poster, Tracy and I bought this awesome Stereo shirt for $20. Jenny didn't buy anything, apparently she doesn't like Stereos. Sigh. STEREOS!!

CASI - Ice Capades in Antarctica

Today for school we had CASI :( Our story for CASI was an article by Rachel Bakker, called Ice Capades in Antarctica. I didn't like writing about it, but I admit that the story was pretty interesting. It was about an Ontario student named Rachel Bakker, who joined and organization called SOI( Students On Ice) and got an experience of a lifetime. She and 40 other students from around the world got to go to Antarctica and study the animals there, while getting an extraordinary experience, being able to see penguins, seals, whales, and oddly shaped icebergs.
The story reminded how precious the world really is, and how we're taking advantage of it. Places like Antarctica are getting destroyed by global warming, and we should really stop that.

This is my first post :)

I have no idea what to write, I guess I'll tell you a little about me. My favourite subject is art. My favourite colours are black, gray, purple, navy blue, red and green. Chipmunks, rabbits and dogs are only a few of my favourite animals :) My favourite bands are Stereos, Faber Drive and Simple Plan.
My teacher said I could talk about hippos in the jungle. Do you really believe that hippos can survive in the jungle? The Amazon is really different from Africa, where I believe they originated from. Do you think hippos can really live there?
Before I leave, check out the book Scat. It's a really good book, especially if you care about endangered species ;)
