Gosh, I just "wasted" the whole morning reading. I was supposed to start on my homework, but since I went to the library yesterday, I got this really good book. And once I start reading an interesting book, I never stop. It's almost lunch time anyways. Right now, it's 11:59am, so I'm gonna help my mom get lunch ready. Mainly by setting the table. I think we are having noodles. Yum! I am actually a pretty fast reader because I just finished about half the book in 3 hours. But I could have spent those 3 hours more productively, so after lunch I am going to work really really hard to complete all my homework. I only have 1 major project to work on, but a lot of small bits of homework to complete, so that is going to take a pretty long time to complete. Plus, this week I have a major Chinese test, so I also have to start studying for that after lunch too.

My random thought/statement of the day: Cool, I smell bananas because the computer is right beside a lot of bananas! :)

What a day, I am so exhausted. From the moment I woke up at 7:30am, I had to work, work, work. The only time to relax was nighttime. Although I had a nice relaxing night, that means that tomorrow is going to be very busy. I don't actually have too much major homework due, but that doesn't mean there isn't a lot of little homework bits to do. Fortunately, each piece shouldn't take me too long to do. I am really tired right now, so I will probably go to sleep in about 10 minutes. I would have slept earlier, but I feel asleep on the couch and didn't wake up till just now. Opps, better get to sleep soon now!

My random thought/statement of the day: I like apple pie with ice cream!

Today was one of the sunniest days in a long time! I am so serious. Sure, the other days were really nice, but today was just amazing! I had P.E today, and it was really nice. Although today was very good, I found it just a tad too hot and dry. And it would have been even better if there was a little wind going, but I really should stop complaining because it's like summer again! But I guess global warming is making this planet super hot too... It's really sad that humans have ruined the world so much there is global warming.

On another note, I am so nervous about the finals that are coming up! I think that out of the 8 subjects we take, we only have 4 finals exams. These are the subjects we are having finals on: Socials, English, Math and Science. And these are the ones there are no finals on: French, P.E, Fine Arts and Applied Skills. I am really glad we only have 4 exams because if there were 8, I think I would freak out. Exams are really stressful, no matter what kind, so even having just one exam less really helps!

My random thought/statement of the day: I am really slow at writing tests, so I hope an hour (the given time) is enough! I also don't know where the tests are taking place. I just know the time and date!

Guess what? I finally performed in the busker fest today! I sang with my friend, and at first we were both very nervous, but in the end, I was really relaxed. We both knew the song really well, and it sounded good, so were pretty confident. But that isn't the only thing. I think the most important fact was that everybody in the audience was very supportive and they all clapped and cheered us on while we were singing. I also donated some money. At first, I didn't think that I had any spare change, but after rummaging around, I managed to get $2.01. I know it's not a lot, but if everyone donated a little, it would amount to a lot. Yes, it was quite nerve wracking, but since everyone was supportive and nice, I had a lot of fun, and next year, I really want to sing again! This was actually the first time I sung with an audience besides in a choir. In elementary, I was in the school choir, so I sung lots then, but it has been a while since I sang for an audience and I am pleased to say I had an awesome time!

My random thought/statement of the day: I really enjoy singing!

Well, I was supposed to do the busker fest with my friend today, unfortunately, after we finished eating and getting ready, everyone was already cleaning out, so we are going to do it tomorrow. Everyone that performed has done a lovely job! And it is just amazing how musical people are. I am not too nervous about singing in front of people as long as a someone is singing with me, but if someone is taping the whole song, I get super nervous!

I am getting really nervous with the finals coming up too! And the worst part is, I also have 2 Chinese exams and one of them is this week and the other is the next. Although I have many exams coming up, they are all neatly organized. This week is the first Chinese exam, then next week is my second, more important one and finally the week after that one is the start of school finals.

My random thought/statement of the day: Gosh, it seems as if time passes by so fast! Finals start in 2 weeks!

The second day of the busker fest! My friend and I are going to perform a song together tomorrow and I am so nervous. We are going to sing Everything by Michael Buble. It's just really nerve racking because most people are playing a music instrument like the piano or violin, and we might be one of the first people to sing. Although I am slightly freaking out, I feel quite confident because during lunch period today, we practiced and I think we sounded considerably good. I know that I still need to practice a bit more because I haven't gotten the lyrics memorized, and there are parts where I know I need to work on my pitch because the original song is quite low, so I might need to transpose it up an octave.

My random thought/statement of the day: I love being in Middle Years, and I love all my teachers, classes and classmates.

This was the first of 4 days in the Busker Fest. During lunch time, we go and do a performance to raise money. I am going to perform on Wednesday with a friend, and we are going to sing. Today, a heard a lot of people play the piano, and everyone is so amazing! It seemed as if everyone was just so gifted in playing the piano! Although I also play the piano, I'm not going to because I like singing more, plus I love singing with a friend. Even though I am quite excited, I am mostly nervous... I really hope that I don't mess up because usually when I get nervous, I mess up. But everyone that played it was awesome today, and I think that they are all amazing musicians.

My random thought/statement of the day: I love knitting scarves, it is just so much fun and in the summer, my goal is to knit at least 10 scarves so that I can give it to the homeless in the winter.
