My first tea party, sleepovers and a rain-snowy ceremony

Hey guys :)
My weekend was pretty good but not that exciting though! On Saturday morning, it was sooo beautiful wheather, a bit cold but super sunny and blue sky, so I went on a biiiig walk with Rascal and Cookie and believe it or not , I got lost in the crown Isle neighboorhood :D
Hahaha it was so funny cause originally, I wanted to go on a 30 minute walk, but it turned out as a 1.45 hours RUN :D I jogged almost the whole time cause I was supposed to meet Judy on time and I was a bit to late finally :( But not that late!
Whatever, so Judy and I chilled for a bit and then, I went over to Beccis house, cause she invited me and some other candians to a "TEA PARTY", she's so cute cause she said, she never had one or been to one, that's why a tea party :D It was so funny, there were like 9 candian girls and me :) Unfortunately, I was the youngest, so I couldn't reeeally understand what they were talking about, like the newest gossip about *piiiep* and I did never know the pieps :/ But anyways, it was fun, we had some sandwiches and tea!

So yeah...in the evening I went home for supper and after that, Paulina, Lori, Kierra and I drove down to dairy queen and had some ice cream, well I had an orange julius( kinda like a smoothie) cause thats my favourite!! And it's typical candian, we don't have it in Germany!

That night, I slept over at Judys house and it was pretty cool cause her brother came up from Victoria this weekend, his name is John and he'S 17, so our age. Judy and I baked Cookies, which *cough* didn't turn out good cause we were kinda messed up this time, cause Judy forgot to buy margarine, so we took shortening ( :/ ) and I was so confused that I put in a TABLEspoon of salt instead of a TEAspoon!! ;D ewww it tasted sooo salty, so we mixed a lot more sugar and booom it tasted like I don't know, but straaange :D So we fed John with the Cookies!! muhahahahah!

Then, we made some extra classic microwave popcorn and watched "Orphan" together with John :D Oh my godness sake this movie? It creeped me out SO much! You guys HAVE to watch it!
Well, then we watched some other stuff and finally went to bed and watched on her laptop breaking dawn *-* but hahaha we both fell asleep cause it was like 4.30 soooo :D


Today, we had to get up at 9 for the Courtenay Remembrance day ceremony, where our choir performed again! So we were getting ready, as I looked outa the window and saw the FIRST SNOW *-* Unfortunately, it lasted like not even 5 minutes but it waaas snow :D
But theen it turned into a nasty rain and the ceremony was outside!!! yuckyyy!!!

Whatever, it was nice anyways! After that, Lori took me home and I watched a movie with Kierra (she's the man- I'm freakin lovin this movie :D).
So, our plans for tonight were going to the movies for the new james Bond Movie Skyfall, and Judy, John, Hugh and I went there and baaaam it was already full! So we chose to watch another one, the only possibility was "7 Psychopaths" and this movie was straaange!! It was so digusting cause there was so much blood and everbody killed everyone -.- So I guess that was kinda gross!

So, that's it for this weekend, the good thing is that tomorrow is a free day, so noo school *-*

See you guys xoxoxoxo MAddy

Remembrance Day

So guys I'm back :D the last days were not that exciting, I had Ballet, went to Downtown with friends and yeah...thats it :)
But today in the morning, I had to go to school early, at about 8.30, okay honestly, I'm spoiled ;D
In Germany, I always had to be at school by 8 o clock ! And here, school starts at 9.10!
O well, so today was different cause we had choir practise for our performance later on.

national anthem (sung by my firend Megan *-*)

ms riley, my choir coach :)

this symbol is called Poppy :)

So for all of you who have never heard of remembrance day at all, it's kind of self explaining, you remember the canadian soldiers who died in the wars ( WW1 and 2 i think). Actually it's on November 11 at 11 o'clock, thats on sunday. So we had an assembly in the gym today, and for the FIRST time, I felt like a real candian!
 It was so emotional and so amazing! The 1000 students were just sitting there in silence, listening. We sang the national Anthem, what was really awesome!! :)
Luckily, I took my camera with me and recorded it *-*
yeah...and as you may know, my school is named after a candian peacekeeper, Mark Isfeld, so we had a couple of "praises" for him. Then, our choir performed Halleluja and it was breathtaking! :)
Honestly, it never sounded so great!!! :)

So this assembly was awesome!

In the evening, Kierra and I walked the dogs and now we're hanging out in my room and she's playing on her Ipod :D she's so cute i love her :))

And on sunday, we'll have the big remembrance day ceremony and our choir will perform again :D this time in Downtown Courtenay!

Oh well, See ya guys xoxo Maddy

By the way, we got our field hockey jackets, with my last name at the back *-*

Improv show :)

Today was a special show in our first block :) we had visitors from Vancouver Theatresports, it's like an Improv- thing :D There were two guys, about 30 years old and they put up an awesome show for us :'D
It was hilarious and at the end, the pants of one of the guys ripped by accident :D We laughed sooo badly!!!

So yeah that was about it :) see ya

grad fashion show *-*

Oh gosh guys tonight was awesome!! :)
Like the title says , our grade 12 put up a big fashion show in the gym tonight...it was so cool because I knew so many people out of my courses and stuff :)) They were so good!!
Well, you can't actually describe it, you have to watch some video and look at the pictures :D

Aaaawesome Weekend *-*

Hey Guys :D
I really had an AMAZING weekend! Well, were do I begin? :)

Friday night was pretty neat as I told you we had a small movie night after a long Work out, that was cool...not too exciting though! aaaaah and the package of my dad came that day! Thank you soo much!!

On Saturday, we went grocery shopping and bought me a Sim card and stuff like that. Because big Daddy send me some bread stuff, I made some german bread but it went wrong :D it just didn't raise!! -.- Weöö, but it tasts good anyways! :)
After that, I went on a biiig run because, I don't know, I just needed some sport on the fresh air. The first round, Kierra joined me and then, I ran like 30 minutes alone :) It was soo good!

Then, I did some homework and then, Malin came and we got ready for the parteeeey :D
Oh have I told you about it before? It was Emilys Party, she is in two of my courses and she's reeeally nice! Well, I could bring Malin, so that was actually soo great! We didn't know anybody except for a few people there but that wasn't too bad because luckily, they all came and introduced themselves and they were so nice! We had sooo much fun :'D

There was cool music, so we danced a lot!! And yeah...we got to know so many nice people! :)

Unfortunately, the Party was far out of town, so we had to take a taxi back. We took a cab with Joel, Kenton and Mike, we knew them before ;D and yeah...that was sort of a disaster because we couldn't find the house phone and we should have been at home by 1.30....sooo we kept on searching and finally with success. But then, we waited like 45 minutes outside...well we could have stayed inside as well but the driver said we should wait outside.

we and Dayton, Rachel and Jake :D

We honestly thought, it wouldn't come anymore!!

But then it came and took us home! *thanks god!*

So Malin and I went over to my house and had a sleepover, and we talked and laughed til 3.30 or so :D cause we really couldn't sleep even though we were so freakin tired :D

So today at noon, I had to work at Superstore for the field hockey thing! It's because we made it to the Provincials (the first time *-*) and we need to raise money for the jackets and stuff!
Well, we had to bag groceries of the costumers, which was kind of funny!!! :)

After 2 hours of bagging, Lori, Kierra and Paulina oicked me up and we went to a church, were Kierra had a dance performance. It was like a telethon, so it was on tv and they were collecting money for child development association. And I've been in the tv several times, cause the camera zoomed the audience and I had a gooood seat :'D

So yah...Kierra and her dance group performed the gypsy dance! From Ukrainian dance! :)
It was awesome!!! *-*

gooosh look at his eyes *-*

Malin and I brought some cheese :D

Thats Paulina, my new sister!

Exhausting week :)

Sorry that I didn't write yesterday, but there was actually nothing special :) I've been to Choir and school was alright!
But therefore, the weekend will be awesome and probably extremely exhausting! I'm just resting an hour now, and then, Malin and I will go to the Rec center for a big workout! After thaat we will go over to JUdys house and watch a movie with Celina.
Sooooo see ya guys
