In deep

I've been doing so thinking, reading, and more thinking, and I've decided that we don't understand the universe we live in. Like we don't understand how small we are, or how we affect what we've been given by whoever bothered to make us. We ask questions sure, and there are some people who are openminded enough to move us with what the say and make us think. I think that Chris D' Lacey is one of these people. I just re-read his book Dark Fire, and the story went by really fast and I didn't understand all of it. So I guess what I'm saying is, the things he writes about, and the things that he describes are so important and hugely to do with understanding the universe that I couldn't understand him. His stories of bears and dragons are so amazing. I love polar bears now that I've read his books, and dragons too. I think I've become more enlightened to the universe around me now that I've read his books, there's just so much going on in the universe and we are only a portion of it.

So I finish this blog post with a challenge,

next time you don't understand something, think if it in the sense of the universe, why is this here? What is it for? And you might understand it. But the universe is very big, don't try to understand all at once, let it come to you, or else you head hurts. :)

Hrrrr.

(All you Last Dragon Chronicles readers will understand this last bit.)

In a nutshell, I'm Hitting the Books

Yep, the title kind of says it all. Today I'm studying for a spelling bee that I will take part in in the coming week. I have to study three sections of words and I have been locked in my room for what seems like hours on end. There is nothing I would change about my situation though, I've got a tea, my words a notebook with crisp clean pages and a laptop for definitions later on, earlier in the day I had my blind open and my light off for some natural light, I find that better for studying. I've tried many spelling techniques but I find that this one works even better then all the rest. Finding the definitions for all the words them making a sentence out of them that works. I also find that if you are using the dictionary on the computer, just typing in the word in the search bar helps, because words that I didn't think I could spell, turns out I can! There are many other students participating in this bee, but as a person that really admire says, "You just have to enjoy the ride because if you stress yourself out, you'll miss the amazing view of what you've done for yourself.

Until next time!

WE ARE A MOVEMENT!

We Day. The day where we put aside our differences for a better world. I had the opportunity to be a part of this amazing event today. To see the amazing people who helped with this cause and hear there stories. We Day is much more then a day. It's a month, year, or life time movment. A day where we are all the same, no matter who you are. Everyone was getting involved, everyone wanted to make change. The amazing stories of those who had suffered, or who family suffered, or even if the suffering is still going on today, they wanted to be a part of this. They kept telling us that this was our generation, our time, our place. That we could make change, we could be change. The lights, sounds, and colours all made it very exhilarating.

Then we braked for lunch.

After lunch we heard more speakers then...

Hedley preformed, as did Down With Webster and Shawn Desman. A former vice president spoke as did Hannah Taylor. It was a truly amazing thing to be apart of this.

I will remember it forever.

New Books! Love it when they come out!

So this week's book is Son of Neptune by Rick Riordan! It's a follow up to Book One, The Lost Hero. I am hoping to get my hands on it before the week is over. I read a little of the first chapter on Rick's website, but i didn't want to read to far, because I like it to be a surprise when I get it.

I was thinking to myself, how does he do it? I mean rick is working on 2 book series at the same time! the Kane Chronicles, and the Heroes of Olympus!

It's crazy! for those of you not familiar with Rick's work, he has written some very good books, like, The Percy Jackson series, which is 5 books! Plus more! he is someone I really look up to as a writer, he makes it feel like your write there, fighting battles, invading enemy fortresses, and even in those parts of the book where the characters are alone, you feel like your there, but the can't see you. It's like you can go everywhere and back, and never leave your room.

Books like that really speak to you, and you can never judge a book by it's cover, but it's easier to judge what a book has inside it if you go a little farther and read the blurb.

Thats all for now!

New school year!

Hey followers!

I'm sure everyone is enjoying summer.

But the end is coming, of summer that is.

And I, still being in school, want to make the best of what time I have left.

But there is also the problem of what supplies to buy, and I am happy to tell you that I can help you out!

In terms of binders, it depends on what kind and quality you want, if you're looking for a low price binder I recommend Dollerama, if you want binder that are more expensive, I suggest Staples.

For paper you can get that almost anywhere, but for markers, highlighters, pens, pencil crayons, and all that other stuff, Staples or Dollerama again price and quality are what you need to decide on.

Now that that stuff as been said, I need to tell kids that summer is a stage, and the shows on the final act.

What you need to to do is, when your not shopping for back too school, you need to be doing the things you like most, or maybe the thing that you've been trying to do, but just haven't done it yet, thats what you have to do!

And if you think you've done it all then listen to one of my favourite quotes,

"If you've done all the things that you have planed for yourself, then you haven't planed enough,"

Also, dream big, you never know what you might be able to do in those last few days,

Will post soon,

Ebear :)

Summer Trip

Hey followers!

Have I got news for you!

A lot of it actually.

How about we start at the start, of summer that is!

So, school is over!

My friends and I are like, freaking out, because we won't see much of each other until school starts again.

But I'm off school for like, a day and then when I wake up my parents say, "Okay! Lets hit the road!"

because we are going to drive to my Auntie Karen and Uncle Ed's farm for their wedding, which, by the way, is in Alberta!

So we're in the car, we drive for three hours to get to my Grandma's House and we spend the night, then the next morning we drove to Saskatoon. by the way, did you know that there is like a 20m space in between Manitoba and Saskatchewan? So we got to our hotel, stayed the night and were off.

So when we got to our hotel we unpacked and drove to our Aunt and Uncle's farm. When we got there we started to help set up for the wedding.

The next day was SO great!

The wedding was held in their yard. all the horses even came to the edge of their pens to watch!

The after party was so much fun, the DJ was playing cool music and he had these laser light show machines going on the dance floor.

And guess what? I even caught the bouquet!

So after one more day at the farm, in which I helped with taking care of the horses, we continued our tour of Alberta.

But that's for another post, I hope I have you on the of your seat as you wait for my next entry!

Happy Summer! :)

And to those of you out there who have been checking every day and would have probably be nagging me to do another post, (You know who you are,) sorry it took so long.

The Divisionals!

Hi everyone!

I have exciting news!

Today I'm going to the divisional science fair!

my project is on the Manitoba Hydro building. I'm so nervous, and excited at the same time! This is my first year doing a science project, the last two years I have been doing a heritage fair project.

My brother is going as well. He did his project on what makes popcorn pop.

The science fair is something new for me, I don't know what to expect, I have been practising a lot this week, I think it has come together very well! The only problem is, I don't know anyone who has their project near me! I think that they are all older then me.

my brother gets to be by one of his friends, he is so lucky!

There are seven other people from Bruce at the fair, but I don't know were they are!

I think I'll see if I can find them today, and maybe tell them where I am in the gym.

The gym isn't that big, so it probably won't be that hard to find them.

Well, wish me luck!
