Spring is where you get see the beautiful flowers starting grow. You get to see the little animals coming out. You start to spend more time outside because of the nice weather. You start to do your spring cleaning to prepare for summer. These are the things people like to do when it's spring.

What do you guys like to do when spring is here? Do you spend more time outside? Do you start your spring cleaning, or do you just ignore it? Is spring your favorite season, or is some other seasons your favorite? Is your favorite part of spring seeing the animals?

Some of the things that I like to do in spring are taking my dog for lots of walks in the park. Hanging out with my friends outdoors. Starting my spring cleaning. Cleaning out the yard so that things can start to grow. There are the things that I like to do in spring.   

 
 Have you ever had to get up in front of an audience and do your presentations? Do you get nervous? Do the palms of your hands get all sweaty? Do you ever stutter? Are you twitching your hand?

These are some of the things that happened to me when I started out doing my very first presentation, way back in grade three. Now I am presenting almost all the time. I have no problem getting up in front of an audience and speaking about what I have to say. I can go up in front of an audience and be confident. Now it's time to do one today!   


It's quite easy to get up in front of an audience. Just relax and don't tense up. Make your voice loud so people can hear you. Keep eye contact with your audience. Most important make sure you don't make yourself look nervous or scared.
 
I watched a video called "till this day" by the voice of the man named Shane Koyczan. I have to say that this video has to be one of the most inspirational videos I have ever seen. The video I watched was about bulling and how badly it can affect people. This man was talking about his childhood, and how badly he was bullied. When he was little he decided that he wanted to climb a tree, but he fell down and bruised the left side of his body. 

Than the next day came, it was time for him to take gym, and his coach seen that he was badly bruised. He was sent down to the nurse’s office to get him checked out. Than he was asked about his life and he said that whenever he felt sad his grandmother would give him karate chops, but what Shane didn’t know is that there is a difference between karate chops and pork chops. If you would like to hear more about him go and watch his video.   

Bulling is a pretty bad thing. I remember I was bullied back in elementary  school.  Girls use to hide my clothes when I had to take gym class. Some other person would take my lunch. I found my boot in a bush with snow in it.  Bullying can be a really bad thing, and can effect many people. Think before you act!

Don't you guys just love dogs? I know I do! I just love waking up in the morning and having my little dog come barrelling towards me from down the hallway, happy to see me from a good night’s rest. I would have to say that it is one of the cutest things that I see every morning; it's what makes me happy to get on with my day. I also just love knowing that as soon as I walk through the door, that little four legged doggy is still going to greet me and put a smile on my face. 

I have so many memories with her. I remember this one time I was taking my dog for a walk in the fall, and it was really windy outside so there were alot of leavs blowing everywhere, and I turn around to see this massive leaf on her face. I couldn't stop laughing. 

Another time was when I was walking with my mother. We were talking towards an out door patio. As we were walking together talking away about things, we both turned around.  Than there was my dog holding a coffee cup in her mouth. She could barley hold onto it. It was gross yet adorable at the same time!
 
Aren't you guys happy that we got "family day" back in 2008? I know that I am. It's extra day where you can spend the day with your family and friends and do something fun. I spent the day with many of my family members by having a big dinner and celebrating. It's always great to spend an extra day with your family, just to make sure that there is still that family love. I can’t wait till next year’s family day and years to come. 

So did any of you do anything fun for family day? Did you go and visit family like I did? Did you just stay home for the day? Did you celebrate with friends? Did you have a family dinner? 

If you guys can't think of anything here are some ideas. You can visit other family member like I did. You could go bowling for an afternoon with your family. You can go to the movies and watch a good family movie. Or you can spend the day at the park, it's great if you have a dog so he/she can participate. I sure hope this helped!
 
Don't you guys just love Fridays? I know that I do, it's the last day of the week before the weekend starts! Some of the things that I like to do on Friday is hang out with friends or family and just being able to do something fun! But after your Friday is over, you still get to look forward to the rest of your weekend. Some of the things I like to do on my Saturday and Sunday is have fun visiting my family and having fun sleepovers with my friends. So what are some of the things that you like to do on Friday or even the rest of your weekend?  

Do you guys have sleepovers? Do you hangout at home and watch movies? Do you visit family? Do you spend it outside to get fresh air? What are the things you like to do?

I have to say the best Friday was when I was leaving town in May to  go visit family on the long. I barley get to see them because they live pretty far away. I have had some really cool memories there, like seeing the horse races. The sound of the crowd cheering when that horse crossed that finish line. Them smell of that popcorn and hot dogs being made.  

 
Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! What’s the best part of Valentine’s Day for you? The chocolates? the candies? 

I would have to say those yummy candies you get, and no, not form a "special someone", the ones that you buy yourself:) I especially love the cinnamon hearts. But don't worry to you single people out there, even though you see other people getting the chocolates and the roses for their lover,  you will hopefully find that "perfect someone" one day. You never know cupid might be flying around somewhere and it might just hit you! <3

So I think I will spend the day watching romantic movies. Eating chocolates and icecream. Cuddling in with my dog. Talk with friends about how their valentines went. Lastly imagining up a boyfriend! Joking!

 
Don't you love the sound the snow makes when it crunches between your boots? Don't you love to see the snow falling softly to the ground in the early morning? Have you ever looked out your window to see the children on your street making snowmen, and having snowball fights?

I see that all the time when it is winter! I just love going outside to walk my dog and just listen to the beautiful sounds of winter. The little squirrels running across the sidewalks playing. I love looking into the trees to see the little birds singing. These are the beautiful things that I love to see when it's winter time. 

I remember when I was younger I would be outside all the time. In winter I would be one of those little kids out tobogganing and having snowball fights, heck I still like to toboggan And have snowball fights! I love coming in after a few hours of the cold for warmth and hot chocolate. Then coming in for he rest of the night to watch movies. Now winter will soon be over, but it will come again soon!

 
Don't you just love to find out that you have a new addition you your family? I just love hearing that great news! The soft baby skin you feel. The cute little faces that they make at you. The sound of their voice when they first laugh and say their first word.  These are the best things about having a little bundle of joy.

  Just in January I heard the news that I had a new baby cousin that had just been born. Just a few days ago I was able to meet the new baby.  When I first was able to hold the baby he was sleeping in my arms, after a while form holding him, he opened his eyes and looked up at me with those beautiful blue eyes. That soft skin when I was holding him. That cute little smile when he thought something was funny. These are the best things about having a new addition to your family.


I know that I am still young but I would like to have kids one day! I would like to have one baby boy and one baby girl. I can't wait too buy those cute little outfits. I don't have any names picked out, but I will decided when the time comes. I know being a parent is one of the most hardest things,, but it's still something I want experience.
 
    I watched a video of a man named Neil Pasricha. A thing that I thought that was interesting about his story was he created a blog that was turned into a book called "The book of awesome". What I learned when I was watching this inspirational video is, even though things can bring you down, you need to be a positive person and fight through anything.

I highly recommend anyone seeing this video of Neil talking; he had so many things to say. It can really open the eyes of a person who has been kind of down and needs something to think about. I have to say that this man has been through a lot. So I recommend just taking a little time out of your day and watching this inspirational video.

I can't image what it's like coming into a new country for the first time. The food is very different form what you are use to. People are speaking different languages and you don't understand. The way people dress are different.  Also the way people live is different! I can't imagen what Neil's  parents were thinking. But I guess that's the best part about seeing different parts of the world.
