Today was the closing ceremonies of the 2010 winter Olympic games. These two weeks have gone by in a fly and I enjoyed every moment of it. From Alexandre Bilodeau winning the first gold medal for Canada in Canada to the men's hockey team beating the U.S team and winning gold. Who knows when the next Olympic games are going to be held in Canada? All I know is that I was able to witness glory at home.

New karate stuff
Date: February 27th, 2010
Today, I went downtown to go get my new karate gear for my BC Winter Games tournament in Terrace. I got new pads, and two new uniforms. I also went to Natalie's party for a bit. It was fun but I had to leave early to go to my grandparent's house for dinner. Before I left we played rock band and modern warfare and just hung out.

GOOOOOOOOOLD!!!
Date: February 26th, 2010
Today we got three medals in Speed-Skating and we beat Slovakia! Charles Hamelin won two gold medals and his brother François Hamelin won one gold medal. We won in the short track speed-skating and the short track relay. I was watching the relay and I thought that Korea was going to make a move and take over, but Canada totally boxed them out and ended up winning the gold!

Bronze Medal
Date: February 25th, 2010
Today, Joanie Rochette won bronze in figure skating. I think that it's really good that she competed even though her mother died. Even better, she won a medal. I didn't think anyone would beat Korea, as their skater was super good. It was awesome today because school started later than usual and I got to sleep in instead of having to wake up at 6:30. Tomorrow is my social studies presentation and I'm kinda nervous about it.

So many medals!
Date: February 24th, 2010
Today, I went on the field trip across...well I dunno, but it was pretty awesome. I got my jelly doughnut at Granville Island like I wanted to. Lonsdale Quay was pretty cool too, I liked going to the top of the tower. At YVR there was a ton of cool stuff there. There was this giant phone that actually worked! I tried making a call but it didn't work. We also won a ton of medals today. I was amazed when we swept the 2-man bobsleigh!

Ppm
Date: February 23rd, 2010
Today, my dad fitted me for a PPM mouthguard. It's a special mouthguard that helps athletes perform better. It's aligns your jaw so that it's in it's optimal position. I'm going to use it for the BC Winter Games tournament in Terrace. I can't wait to use it because I was trying the allignment out and I really felt the difference.

My poor dog
Date: February 22nd, 2010
Today, my dog wasn't feeling that well. He didn't want to eat anything and all he ever did was lie around all day. Most of the time he has a great appetite, but not today. He always lies around though. I think that he is the laziest dog in the whole world. I think he misses my grand-parents because they always spoil him.

Canada lost!
Date: February 21st, 2010
Canada lost.... I just couldn't believe it when Kesler made that one handed empty net goal. We almost had a chance to win it until then. We should have won it today except Brodeur didn't play nearly as well as he should have. I really think that if we had put in Luongo instead of Brodeur we would have won.

Curling
Date: February 20th, 2010
Today I watched the curling match between Canada and Great Britain. I don't really understand curling, but from what I got from the match, for each hammer that is closer to the middle than your opponent's you get a point. We were winning at the start, but we eventualy lost the lead and were trailing until the end. Then on the last end we had a crazy shot and ended up winning. Canada is so GREAT.

Gooold
Date: February 19th, 2010
Today, Canada took another gold medal. Now we have more gold medals than any other medal. The gold was won in the Men's Skeleton by Jon Montgomery. I saw his heat and it was totally awesome. His best time was 52s and it was good enough to beat everyone. He beat Dukurs by 7 one hundredths of a second, which was again, really close. Hopefully we can keep this streak going, and end up getting the highest total of medals.

CANADA WON GOOOLD!! WOOOOT! Christie Nesbitt was the third canadian to win a gold medal in the 1000m long track speed skating. I couldn't believe it, but she won by 2 one hundredths of a second! She was trailing at the start, but she pulled it together to win. Unlike the Canadians, who had to struggle to beat the Swiss. I didn't think that the Swiss were even a threat, but I guess they were...

Council shirt
Date: February 17th, 2010
Today I got my student council shirt. I always kept forgetting my money but this time I remembered. The shirt is pretty cool. It's black and has neon green lettering on the back that days grade rep. There is also a white bulldog on the front and it is comfy.

English presentation
Date: February 16th, 2010
Today I finally did my Greek god presentation for English class. I've been dreading it because I hate going up to speak in front of people especially with a funny costume. I finally did it and I think that I did pretty well. No mistakes and I remembered all of the stuff. I was Hades and I think that my costume was pretty cool. I had a two pronged fork which was pretty cool.

Avatar
Date: February 15th, 2010
Today I finally saw Avatar. At first I was a bit skeptical about seeing it, because I thought it would just be a cheap knock-off of other good action animation movies. Then, after hearing everybody say how good it wa, I figured it would be worth a shot. I ended up seeing it in 3-D, and I have to say - it was pretty good. The graphics were amazing and the plot was really good too. The 3-D effects were awesome too.

Date: February 14th, 2010
Today was Day 3 of the Olympic Winter Games. Finally, Canada won our first gold medal. Alexandre Bilodeau won it for us in the Men's Mogul. I saw it on tv and I was super excited. I was kind of worried that the French skier would take first place, but he ended up messing up one of his jumps and lost a lot of marks for it. Today was also Chinese New Years and I went to a party with my family and it was really fun.

Olympics
Date: February 13th, 2010
Today was Day 2 of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games. I watched the Women's Mogul, the Men's 5000m Speed-Skating, the Men's regular Ski Jump and Women's Hockey. My favorite of today was the Speed-Skating. Sven Kramer, the winner of the 5000m Speed-Skating, won the 100th gold medal for the Netherlands and broke an Olympic Record. He was super good and made the other competitors race for 2nd place.

OLYMPICS!!!
Date: February 12th, 2010
Today was the opening ceremonies of the 2010 Vancouver Olympic winter games. The opening ceremonies were AMAZING!! I watched almost the whole thing, the only thing that I missed was when the Olympians walked into BC Place. I especially liked all of the projections coming from the ceiling. I thought that it was revolutionary and totally original. I think that the olympic games are going to be the best yet and I'm going to try to watch as many events as I can.

Science Fair: The Real End
Date: February 11th, 2010

Now, we can finally relax...OH WAIT! THAT'S RIGHT! WE STILL HAVE ANOTHER 2 PROJECTS FOR ENGLISH AND SOCIALS!! I guess us Synergy kids can never relax...I guess that's why we're in this program.

Greek Myths
Date: February 10th, 2010
Today, I finished my costume for my Greek Mythology project. For English class, everyone was supposed to research a Greek God, present to the class some stuff about that God and dress up like him/her. I did the God, Hades. Hades is the God of the Underworld so my costume is black and red. I have a cape and a black helmet and I made a two-pronged fork for my weapon. I almost can't wait to do my presentation.

Science Fair 4: The End
Date: February 9th, 2010
Today is the greatest day ever...until next year rolls around. Well, anyways today I finally finished my science fair. I was soo happy because now I can focus on the rest of the projects that teachers in my other subjects have given me. In other news, today was course planning and I decided to take foods 10 next year, because what's better than making food at school? Also, my Facebook layout finally changed and I don't really like it because they took out a lot of things that I thought were useful.

Science Fair 3...AGAIN!! YOU GOTTA BE KIDDING ME!!!
Date: February 8th, 2010
Today, I worked some more on my science fair project. I'm done all of the writing so now all that I have to do is glue everything onto my presentation board. I also worked on my greek mythology project. I have my costume all ready to go and I'm nearly done memorizing my script. I don't think that I'm going to be presenting tomorrow, but just in case, I'm getting prepared. The only thing I need to find is my brother's skeleton shirt because I'm Hades God of the Underworld so I need a skeleton minion. If I can't find the shirt, I'll just make one out of paper.

Science Fair 2
Date: February 7th, 2010
Today, I was working on my science fair project again. I looked over all the results to make sure that everything checked out, which it did. So, then I wrote up my abstract and what I'm going to put on the posterboard during the science fair. It's been pretty difficult but I'm almost done and now the only thing that I have to do is to glue all of the stuff onto the posterboard. Man, I can't wait for the Science Fair to be over.

Science Fair
Date: February 6th, 2010
Today, I finished up my science fair experiment. My topic for the science fair is whether or not a higher salt vs. water concentration creates more hydrogen in the process of electrolysis. It took me a while to figure out the setup for the experiment because the hydrogen wouldn't always go into the tube. In the end, I finally managed to do it and (with the help of an adult) blew up the hydrogen. The first time it really freaked me out but it was really cool.

Awesome English class
Date: February 5th, 2010
Today was what might be the greatest English class ever. First, since it was a Friday class, all the classes were 1 hour. Then, when the class walked into Mrs.Greskiw's class, she told us to go and read. We ended up reading for about 20 minutes, which took up a lot of the class time. Then Mr.Olson walked into our class and ended up giving us this permission slip for a really cool field trip. The rest of the time we wasted was pretty much whatever so all we did was watch 2 presentations for the whole English class.

BC Winter Games
Date: February 4th, 2010
Today, I had a meeting about my BC Winter Games tournament in Terrace. It sounds really fun because my team and I get to do a ton of cool stuff like have a dance, a pool party and other stuff. Tonight's meeting was basically about what we are supposed to do before the games and what to bring and other things. I can't wait to go to the BC Winter Games because I think it's going to be a really cool thing to do.

Collab Day
Date: February 3rd, 2010
Today was a Collaborative Day. The best part is I DIDN'T FORGET! Usually I forget and end up waking up super early, like I usually do, walk out the door, get on the bus and realize: Hey! No wonder no one is here! IT'S A COLLABORATIVE DAY! This time I set up a bunch of reminders around my house and on my computer and my iPod and stuff so I wouldn't forget. Another bad thing is when I set my alarm late for a collab day and end up waking up late the next day. Man. I really hate that.

Gymnastics test
Date: February 2nd, 2010
Today, I did my gymnastics routine in gym. I was practicing last night and I managed to do it well during class. My gym teacher thought that it was really good and that I did some moves that the other kids couldn't. I ended up getting 56/63 which, if I did my math right, means that I got 88.8% which is an A!

Grammy's
Date: February, 2010
Today, I watched the Black Eyed Peas' performance again. It was really good and I think that it was the best of the night. I really liked how they transitioned from their song "Imma Be" to their other song "I Gotta Feeling". The Black Eyed Peas are my favorite group right now and I like almost all of their songs. I can't believe that they didn't get the Album of the Year award and I'm pretty sure that they got ripped off.
