Weekend Plans :D
Hey!
Whats up? Nothing really here, just at school again! Thank goodness it is Friday, becuase if it wasn’t I would freak. I’ve only had like 3 1/2 days of school this week becuase I had my surgery.
Today is Friday and I am babysitting this adorable little girl named Faith. She is such a sweetheart, I hope I get to take her to the carnival. I don’t see Michelle (her mom) having a problem with it. Michelle used to babysit me when I was younger and we did everything! Anyways, I have to babysit from 5-10 and it should be fun.
At 10 I am gonna go hang out with my friends, till my curfew which is about 11:30.
This is a pretty normal day, but I am really excited to babysit!!!
Saturday is pretty much the same except, I have the whole day to hang out with my friends. I am gonna hang out with them until 5 and then I have to go and babysit again at 5 until 10, then at ten I am gonna hang out with my friends, tilll I have to be home
Sunday, I don’t know what I am gonna do, something fun I hope, prolly just hang out with friends, I will prolly take Katie out for lunch, seeing as I owe her money
What are you doing this weekend?
Surgery
Hey!!
How are you? I’m fine actually, sitting here in pain though. As you can already tell by my title I had SURGERY! Yes I sure did, and I did a very good job at being still and not scared.
I am not even really sure what is wrong with my mouth I just sat down in the chair, cried a bit and let Dr. Ashaf Asharaf work on my mouth. The one thing I know is that I have three root canals and lots of other stuff, but I don’t think that he started all three root canals, seeing as they are in different places of my mouth.
I had to get three different needles, he had to pull some teeth out and do some stuff in my gums, which didn’t hurt after I got my needles, because the side of my face was NUMB!!!!
I was in that dentist chair for two and a half hours. From 11:00 to 1:40ish. He has to be the nicest dentist I have ever met, because I was FREAKING out, before I got my needles and he was just sitting there patiently waiting for me to calm down. He wasn’t rushing me or nothing! He was really friendly and was laughing and talking and everything I was all WOAH he is nice!
It was really funny because after I got my freezing I was feeling my face and it was getting huger by the minute, I felt like a hot air balloon seriously. And it felt so funny ![]()
Now its Thursday and I am back in school which is a good thing because I don’t like missing a lot of school. The numbing is gone, and my mouth is hurting and sore. IT TOOK ME FORTY MINUTES TO EAT HALF OF A BANANA!!!!!!!! By the time I was done that half, I said whatever; I am not wasting my time on a stupid little banana and gave up. Soon my mouth will be better and I can eat.
I was super sad because while we were in McDonalds everyone with me was eating fries and burgers and stuff, and there I was with a pudding. I was not happy and when I got home from Flin Flon there was Angelina’s pizza right there ( the best pizza in town) and I had to eat a pudding, tragic day I tell you!
It was really funny because as I was leaving either Wal-mart or Canadian Tire, I saw my principal, and he was all “here for medical?” And I had these shopping bags and I was like “yes”
I have to go back on October 4th, October 10th. And a couple more times after that, so I will be used to the dentist by the time I’m done there

Weekend :D
My weekend was great, I went to my friend Darren’s house to watch a movie with a bunch of people, but it was a really guyish movie, so my friend Lana and I walked up to Angelina’s in the rain, and got a FREE flurry, and he even let us make it ourselves. I got a chocolate flurry with clodhoppers and peanuts
. We got a ride back to Darren’s with Darren’s mom. We went back to Darrens and Anna, Katie, Elaine, Tiff, Micheal, and Dustin all went downstairs. Later on that night Katie, Dustin, Michael, and Tiffy all walked me home.
Saturday was a normal day. Once a week I have to clean the living room, so I woke up, and I did that. After I was finished that I showered and got ready. I was waiting for Katie to get up and I just sat around and talked, and I help Kerstin beat this mario castle. I walked up the road and got my hairdye and some french fried then walked to Katies house :mrgreen: I just hung out with Katie, Michael and dustin. We had a good time around Katies Puter on my msn
I must say I live on msn not joking!
Anwyays, I hung out with them all day, and night. At night we met up with Elaine, and we all just walked around main street and ate flurrys in the COLD. We had a lot of fun that night, and then when Elaine and I decided to run and find an ATM machine so I could get more cash out we heard a police siren for like 20 minutes it was crazy. A few drunk teens said to us “are you guys running from the cops?” lol it was funny.
Sunday was a pretty sucky day. I had to go wood hauling out by Reed Lake. The only thing I liked about it was eating, drinking and laughing. I had a stupid tough job! After Hank and Kalen cut the branches off of the big logs, I had to carry them into the bush, so the ditch looked like it did when we came. I had to walk threw prickly bushes, and swamp and everything. I loved it when Claude (Tiffys Dad) took his bobcat and picked up the logs. Kalen and I had to stack the logs on the trailor. I kept on saying I cant lift that! but surprisingly I was able to lift it.
This is pretty much my weekend I had a lot of fun, hopefully you guys did to!
How is text created in a visual text?
Hey there!
Mood is created in many different ways, just not text or facial expressions. Mood is drawing, painting, photos, video etc. Mood is based on lines, colour and shape.
In class we are learning about mood and how mood is created in a visual text. Personally I don’t like doing any of this mood stuff, but I don’t really have a say.
We had to draw an emotion on a piece of paper, but we couldn’t use pictures! We weren’t aloud to draw a person walking alone and use the emotion lonely and sad. We had to do lines and colours and shapes so you if you had to draw the pictures, based on your mood. I did excitement, and I used bright colours, and thin lines. I made things that kind of looked like fireworks, and a roller coaster.
Mood is a way of showing people something. Mood is used everyday and it’s formed in many ways.
Check out this website, to see more on mood.
what do you think about mood? what mood do you think this animal is feeling (picture below)

Reading, writing & Text
Hello!
Today is day 6 (where we don’t have Home Economics or Gym) so we stay with our homeroom teacher. It’s after lunch, and when we came in from lunch, he had written on the board that we had to do a blog post on reading, writing and text.
Recently in class we’ve been learning about reading, writing and text. We had to write what we think reading is, writing is, and what text is. This is what I think reading, writing and text are;
- I think that reading is, pointing something out, for other people to see. Its trying to tell someone something. Reading a picture is also reading, reading isn’t just text.
- I think writing is telling someone something, and letting people know something. Writing can be showed in many ways, like MSN, web, a book, textbook, manual etc.
- Text is anything you look at, read or write. A textbook is a form of text as well as a picture of an animal.
There are many ways of showing text, and lots of opinions about reading and writing.
Tell me what you think reading, writing and text are, also check out this website for many tips on this topic.
Scary Story
Hey there!
In ELA since we are focussing on text and mood and stuff, we had to write a piece with emotion. Mine was supposed to be scary, here is what I wrote;
“Timothy, is usually bad for most babysitters, so I’ll put him to bed before I go.” Said Tina as she pulled up her black knee-highs.
“Okay thanks, is Annie just finishing up her bath now?” asked Fiona.
“Yes, she’s putting her jam jams on and should be in bed right away.” Said Tina half minded, because she was looking for her cigarettes.
Tina left, and both kids were in bed. Tina took the leftover popcorn off of the counter and poured herself some iced tea. She flipped through some channels, on the TV, and finally settled for the latest episode of ‘What I like about you.’ She was just getting ready to lay her head down, when she heard a loud scream coming from Annie’s room.
Fiona ran up the six flights of stairs past two living room, around eleven bedrooms finally reaching Annie’s room, where Joeys face was in the window.
Tina was so scared, and she didn’t know what to do, she just grabbed the kids and ran down the stairs trying to get to the phone, before Joey had a chance to break in.
Tina turned on the phone and heard a ‘beep’ then the phone shut off completely
“OH MY GOD” screamed Tina.
Tina threw the phone on the couch and ran frantically all around the house, checking to make sure every door, and window was locked.
Joey managed to climb up the vine fence and onto the balcony. He was throwing rocks and beer bottles at the window, yelling and cursing.
By now Fiona had to crying and scared kids, some lunatic outside the window, a dead phone and she was out in the middle of no where, where her cell phone didn’t work.
Fiona plopped down on the couch thinking of a plan. She sat there for about thirty seconds when a very bright plan came to mind. Fiona ran into the kitchen and grabbed the kids.
“Shhhhhhh you two” said Fiona putting her finger to her mouth.
Since Joey was on the other side of the house, she was able to slam the door making it look like they left, and it would also make it look like they had time to run off and get a good head start.
Fiona put the kids in the bathroom and she slammed the door as loud as she could so Joey would be able to hear it. Fiona ran to the bathroom where the kids were. She told them they had to be really quiet for her plan to work, and the kids listened and picked up some of their bath toys.
Through the small crack in the curtains, Fiona was able to see Joey waddling over to the dirt road, where Fiona had made it sound like they left. Joey waddled away into the darkness.
Five minutes later after Fiona felt it was clear to go out of the bathroom, she went to the linen closet and got a few blankets, and made the kids a bed on the floor, everything was quiet and safe until another they heard another bang on the window.
As you can probably tell, I left the ending blank, so please tell me how you think this story should end, and if you think this was a scary story.
What would you do?
Hey!
I was reading something, and it said “if you had.” It was a really good thing, but I thought I would do a blog post, on my own ideas!
If you had 5 more hours to live what would you do?
If you had only 48 hours until you were to move away from all of your family and all of your friends, what would you do?
If you had Cancer and there was no cure for it, what would you do?
If one day you came home, and your mom said there was a check with one million dollars on it, and your name printed at the top what would you do?
Dress Codes
Hey There!
I’m just sitting here because I’m done my presentation with my good friend Anna! This really came to mind yesterday when I was wearing a tank top under my sweater, and feeling like someone taped to a fire!
· Do you think girls should be able to wear tank tops, as long as their bra straps or belly doesn’t show?
· Do you believe you can have as many tattoos and piercings, as you want in school?
· What about shoes, should you be able to wear whatever shoes you want in class (not including gym); also do you think you should be able to wear your outdoor shoes inside?
· Do you think guys should be able to wear muscle shirts?
· What do you think about girls wearing skirts and dresses, what should the length be?
My Opinions:
· Yes I believe girls should be aloud to wear tank tops, as long as there bra straps are not showing, and you don’t have it so high that your stomach is noticeable.
· Who cares how many tattoos or piercings you have! Your not going to a fashion show, your going to school, a place to learn and get a good education, not somewhere where your modeling clothes or showing off your body!
· I think we should be able to wear our outdoor shoes inside, because for one, I like my outdoor shoes better than my inside ones, and it saves time in the mornings, I don’t think we should be able to scrape our feet across the floor and leave marks or nothing, I also think our shoes should be banged off at the boot room, before leaving the boot room.
· Of course guys should be able to wear muscle shirts! Its just like girls wearing tank tops, except guys don’t have bra straps or usually there belly doesn’t show. I know someone who wore a muscle shirt to school on the first day, and I don’t recall the teacher saying anything!
· Mini skirts are pretty tough because most girls love skirts and dresses, but yes there should be a limit on how short it is. I think you have to be able to touch the end of it and be able to also touch your knee with the same hand using your thumb and pointing finger.
This is pretty much what I think. Either you agree or you don’t but please leave what you think in the comment place. Leave your weblink and I’ll check your blog out also!
Feudal Europe
Hey!
Pretty soon we are starting a new unit on Feudal Europe! I do not know a thing about Feudal Europe but I have a feeling I’m going to learn a lot by the time we are finished this unit.
jhkclassplans.pbwiki.com is a Wiki that our teacher Mr. Fisher made. On this website everyone from all over can go to it and add ideas, questions, resources etc. We have many questions, ideas and lots of resources for you to check out!
From what I saw and the little bit that I read, I think this unit is going be really fascinating and fun! I can not wait to start it!
Hillary!
