On Sunday me and my family when to the movie theater to see Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs. The movie was so hilarious.  There was some parts that was funny. Some of you might know Sid the three toed sloth, well he was taking care of baby dinosaurs, and Sid is not the smartest animal in the ice age. When the momma dinosaur comes you might think he’s dead meat, but the momma dinosaur I don’t but I think the momma dinosaur thought was one of the baby dinosaurs.

Diego thought he couldn’t hunt any more because every time he’ll run really fast and his eye sight would get all blurry. Near the end when he thought all was lost he could see when he ran fast.

Crash and Eddie are like the stunt men of the ice age. They will do any thing. From being thrown off a catapult to rolling down a steep hill in a log.

Any way the movie was hilarious. It’s defiantly a great movie for the whole movie.

When I was in grade 3 I went to a day care fair, and there were some girls dancing to the Hamster Dance and Crazy Frog.  But I thought the hamster dance song was more funny. You know craziest thing is. My dad put the song on his ipod. Any way here’s the video with the song.

Well the year of Grade 6 is almost over. I am so sad because best year ever with the best teacher ever is almost done. So here is all the fun events we did all year.

Hornby Island was lots of fun with all my friends!

All the activities, all the food and the bouncy bus ride back. Don’t forget the ferry ride. That was lots of fun. My favourite activities were going to Lunar Beach, Kayaking and Log Walk. In Log Walk I was the first girl to complete it.

The wolves are howling because of Halloween Happening

It was Halloween and we were going to have a great party. Last Halloween I was a wizard. The party was so much fun. We had so much fun games. My favourite games was the computer games.

A wacky gift at the Wacky Gift Exchange

Last Christmas was really funny. There were very funny gifts like a dancing hamster and Barney the dinosaur, AHHHHH!!! That was just plain scary.

At the Western Fun Fair everybody had a great time

In April me and my little brother went to the Western Fun Fair. We went to games that little brother could do because he’s only 4. We did the horse shoe toss. My little brother got one when I didn’t. At least he did a good job right. We also did the bean bag toss. I got one and my brother tried but didn’t get any.

Near the end of the year we’re going to the beach

My class and I are going to the beach next Wednesday. It is going to be so much fun. We’re going to play beach games. We’re also going to have dinner there and sing camp fire song with our music teacher.

Everybody changes their ideas on what they want to do for their career. Trust me I know, but any way here is what I want do when I grow up.

My first idea was helping out at the Courtenay & District Museum by setting up exhibits or help out around the gift shop. My favourite part of the museum is the Elasmosaur. I did the Elasmosaur for my heritage fair project you may have heard about. Any way the people who worked there offered if can help out around sometimes.

My second idea was working at Petland by showing people where everything is or talking to them about the animal they want to chose. You see my parents went to Petland to get me my second hamster Stella. Also Petland is my favourite pet store. I likew all the little animals in there. Last Summer I went in Petland. I past a parrot and it said hello. It took me a couple minutes just to figure out who said it.

Enough about me what job do you want to do when your older???

Gosh I can’t even think. Sure most kids have one favourite thing but I have lots of favourite things. So I’m going to tell you a few of my favourite things in each category and giving you a reason why they are my favourite.

My Favourite Animals

Pets

  • Ginger Cats: They have beautiful designs of fur on their pelts
  • Hamsters: They are small, fuzzy and cute
  • Golden Retrievers: they have beautiful golden silk fur

Birds

I love all birds but I really like penguins.

Wild Animals

This one is a little bit harder I love all animals known to man. There is so many animals in the world it’s just hard to pick only one.

My Favourite Ice-Cream

I only have one answer for that one, Mint Chocolate Chip Ice-Cream. It is my absolute favourite, with mint ice-cream and chocolate chips added in to it. Talk about a tasty treat.

My Favourite Series or Book

Warriors is diffently my favourite series. My favourite book from the series is book 1 In To Wild. That’s when a house cat comes to the forest to become a warrior. It’s seriously the best book I ever read.

Favourite Year Round Hobbies

Spring, Summer and Fall: Bike riding or walking in the evening, reading and blogging

Winter: All I have to do is find a bit of a steep hill and go sledding, reading and blogging

Those are all my favourite things, from animals to hobbies I have a whole whack of favourite things.

For the last two week my class and I have been part of something called the Glocal Project. In the two weeks of learning we had so much fun. We took lots of neat pictures and took so many. The glocal software was created by a collage called Arts Umbrella. I took so many neat pictures through the experience. But I took so many I couldn’t pick favourite picture, so I made a little video of all my favourite pictures.

With the Glocal Software we had lots fun. Me and classmates all wrote their reflections about the Glocal Project Software. These are my classmates who took part with glocal project.

Thank You Josh and Franziska for teaching us all about the glocal project software.
