The Results of Me Staying Home From School Four Days in a Row.

So I've been sick all week, that means: no school. Basically the schools want you to stay home from school, even if you have a little cough. Everyone is all like: "OMG, I'm gonna get SWINE FLU" And I'm like, "Dude . . . calm down."
I am glad to say, I do not have Swine Flu, just a small virus that could last at least ten days. Well, this is the sixth day with it, and I'm already feeling better.

Now, let us see the results of me staying home, four days in a row:

www.youtube.com/nigahiga this guy, he's pretty hilarious, and he's asian! ;)

www.youtube.com/charlie this guy as well, he's AWESOME, and he's BRITISH! ;D Which in my mind, beats all asians by far. Plus he's pretty sexy! :) I suggest "The Purple Man" where he paints himself Purple, it's pretty insane. I also like the "Take My Mug" it's awesome, and "irginomically designed" ahha, you only get that if you watch "Take my Mug" here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oI7ty2n1d0Y
Plus, I don't even thing I spelt "irginomically" right, I really don't even know what it means . . . yeah, I'm pathetic when I'm sick . . .

Great!

Guess what? I'm sick! I'm not that happy about it, I'm actually at home right now, it's 11:12 AM (probably won't say that at the bottom, I have to set my actual time zone ....) and I have a cough, yesterday I had a slight fever, and a headache, my Mom told me to stay home today.
I started not feeling that great on Saturday ... I had a cough, just a little annoying tickle in my throat, but then on Sunday, (when I was at the Mall with MS) I was really really tired, and when I went back to her house after, I had a fever and a headache there, her parents knew, but I told her I was okay. My fever went down when I got home from MS's house yesterday, but my headache didn't go away 'til this morning, and the cough as gotten a little worse(chest cough) and I have a small, small headache, but I'm alright.

I will be posting new pictures tomorrow if I can.

Just a little fill in again, bye 'til next time.

Today, Today, Today ....

Is the party for my beloved Grandfather! I don't really think we got him anything .... oh, well, I guess I hug and a kiss will do for him!
So ... I also like looking at photography, and inspirational pictures on the internet. I go to www.photobucket.com to look at them, go to their "Photography" topic-y-thing, and look at them, my personal favourites is the shadows one, with peoples shadows, it's really cool.

I have also remembered what the third thing I wanted for Christmas is:

1. Better Camera
2. InuYasha Season 3
3. Arthur Spiderwick's Feild Guide to the Fantasical World Around You.

Yaay! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, The Spiderwick Series, I own all five of The Spiderwick Chronicles. And all three of Beyond The Spiderwick Chronicles, all I need is the Feild Guide and I'll have THE COMPLETE SET (In my mind!)

Just a little fill-in ... on my life.

So, I have taken a few more pictures with Crapzilla, but I have yet to put them on my computer, so I'll do that another time ... soon, probably not this weekend though, it's a little busy.
On Saturday, my Father's family is coming down to our house to have a birthday party for my Grandpa, it's here because no one had taken the time recently to plan it, so my Mom did. As my Mom says: "As our Grandparents get older, the more special their birthdays become." I agree, all my Grandparents are in their 70's, and I am afraid sometimes every day that we're going to get a phone call telling us some bad news ... I mostly worry for my Dad's Dad, (Grandpa T) He's old, and he uses a cane, he can't walk upstairs, he's had both knees and hips replaced, I think one knee twice. He's the one I fear for the most sometimes, though I love them all equally.
Then on Sunday me and MS are going with my Mom to buy our Halloween costumes! We're going to be Ying-Yang, (Have I told you this?) Most people ask: "How is that going to work?" or "How do you do that?" We're going to get two big t-shirts (one black, one white) then black and white fabric paint, and paint one half of the symbol on one shirt, and the other half of the symbol on the other half. MS wants to find some black and white stripped tights to go under the gigantic shirts. And my other friend CR has a whole bucket of nail polish, she said she has white, and my friend LT has black, so we're going to borrow that.
Did I tell you I'm in the process of getting guitar lessons? Well ... I am, downtown where I live there's this place called "Long and McQuade" (I think) and I can get some there, but my Mom and I have yet to find a date when we can, since it's October, my Mom's freak-out time is coming near, when her report cards have to start, and she's freaking out.
So ... that's basically all for today, I'll try and post more photography on Monday. Post Later!

MORE PHOTOGRAPHY!!

So, these are them, I took them yesterday, while I was outside in my front yard. I picked the best ones - but this is all of them. Just the best.

This is the 1st one, it's some leaves I put on our stone steps. They were all crinkly!


This is the 2nd one, it's me (notice my beautiful locks of golden hair! I'm seriously like Goldilocks!) and I'm looking up at the large tree in our front yard.

This the 3rd, it's our tree again, just focused on a few of the leaves, one of my favourites!

4th picture, just a stick, I like how it's focused at the front of the picture and then goes a bit blurry. That's a broken wallnut beside it by the way.

5th MY FAVOURITE, MY FAVOURITE!!

I love this! It's a leaf I found on my porch ; I lied down on the porch and focused it, and it turned out great.

I'm starting to get a soft side for Crapzilla (Yes, that is now his official name XD) But I'm still going to ask for a better one for Christmas. My Christmas list so far:

1. A better camera.
2. InuYasha season 3.

That's really all for now ... I had something else, but I forget what it was .... hmm, I'll add it later.

So ... I guess I'll talk to you later.

~Emma.

Photography, photography, photography!

So, once again, I haven't posted in a while - I've been busy with homework and stuff. But last weekend (In Canada) it was Thankgiving, and I took Crapzilla with me to my Grandparents house, and I actually got a couple good pictures off of him!

So the first one is when I was driving back from the "ROM"* (Royal Ontario Museum) and I had my camera out, it's funny, there's MacDonalds in the backround, and the lights are moving, I think it's cool.

And the second one is my cousins necklace on Thanksgiving at my Grandparents, I like the shine you see in it, it's really unique.

I've never really been a good photographer, even though I love it, but even if this "Photography" career doesn't work out, I still have my writing to do. Since I love writing*

Speaking of writing, in Mrs. R's class she's actually putting up an assignment I like! We're writing short stories! I'm so excited, I can post it all on Goodreads ( www.goodreads.com ) when I'm done it, and I can tell you my mark.

I better get a good mark ... or I'll be upset.

I am NOT obsessed ... okay, maybe a little.

So, last night I'm sitting on my bed, I'm bored, I'm watching InuYasha, season one(yes, I finally got it!) and I have my sketch book. Add these things together and you get this ...

The top one is my AWESOME picture, and the bottom one is the one is the Season 1 cover. I absolutely LOVE this picture that I drew-FREE HAND!!

This was Free Hand, I did NOT trace, people were asking that all day(I took it to school)

So tell me what you think? The pictures aren't that good because of stupid Crapzilla.

MS said that I was getting a little obsessed ... then she started singing a song CALLED obsessed, by someone. I don't know who.

Do I look obsessed to you?

My Painting ... Crapzilla ... K'naan and Guitar

So I babysat these two little girls a couple days ago. They were 3 and 51/2. I painted with them, and this is what I painted:

So what do you think of it? I'm not really sure what it means to me personally. But they're really clouds-yes the coulorful things are clouds. I totally just made this up on the spot. The dots, that's splatter of the paint-I did that randomly too. And green, gold and white dot(over in the red cloud) those are the finger prints of the two girls I was babysitting.

Green:Is my finger
Gold: Is the 51/2 year old's finger.
White: Is the three year old's finger.

I really have no idea what it means, but it's interesting, and I like it sort of.

Now that I look at it, it kinda looks crappy. Darn it ... I thought I was becoming an artist. Guess not-PHOTOGRAPHY ALL THE WAY BABY!!

Speaking of photography-I have the most crappiest camera in the world-and it's not even mine! It's my sister's crappy camera she never uses.-She has two. You may be thinking: "Emma, why don't you use your sisters?" well, I can't do that either, because, she-being the genuis she is-has lost the cord to take the pictures off the camera.

It sucks ... Maybe I'll ask for a good photography camera for Christmas. That'd be good? Right? Right. Good? Good.

I'll try and live with Crapzilla over beside me here, for a few more months, but I don't know how much longer I can take with him.

My day went pretty smoothly, Mrs. R wasn't there today, but we had some CRAZY sub. She's like ... evil or something. And I joined Mr. P's choir. Did I tell you? Probably not. But I did, and we've been singing a cool song by K'naan, called "Waving Flag." It's really a cool song. I can't seem to put it on the blog-yet, I'll figure it out.-but here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iC8V8S_REhk

Another good song by K'naan is "Take a Minute." (Minor swearing, like damn. That's all)

Anyway, Mr. P's choir, it's really cool, MS, CR and LT all joined (my friends) but MS and LT like band better, so they're quitting, CR likes it, so she's staying-I hope.

And my Mom might be getting me guitar lessons!! I'm so happy! I told Mr. P and he thought it was cool, and then I was like: "Yeah, then I can play Neil Young!" and he just smiled and said: "Cool!"

I should probably put some video's of my playing guitar on Youtube once I can play.

I hope my Mom gets the lessons soon-I just can't wait!

So ... I guess that's all for now, talk you all later(Though I'm not so sure who: 'You all' are yet).

~Emma.

MY COMPUTER AT HOME IS FINALLY WORKING AGAIN!!

I can now post straight from my own house computer! YAY!!

I just went on blogger, and it worked! I'm so happy and excited!

So that means I'll be able to start the purpose of this blog soon! So this was a tiny, short post, but it was really just a fill in, I'll post a bit more tomorrow(now that I can!)

Talk to you soon!!

Edit: Do you think I need a new name? I'm not that keen on mine, if you have any ideas, just comment.

Something about Journalism, or Photography..

Maybe: My Journey as a Journalist. Suggestions, anyone, anyone, Bueller?

(Ferris Bueller's Day off: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferris_Buellers_Day_Off )

So I haven't updated in a while ... sorry about that. I've been super busy with school junk and crap. Tons of projects that Ms. R gave us, and I haven't had any time to stop in at the library.

I'm really at school right now so this is just a quick post about school and how busy I've been and how I won't be able to post much.

So, as you've read I'm busy with school stuff.

Apparently MS thinks SHE would be a better journalist .... pff ... yeah right MS, yeah right.

Her pictures are better, but I need a better camera so .... OH and soo does she! Whatever.

Oh, now she's laughing that I only have ONE follower, well Meredith, I think your awesome! And if MS did, she would think so too. T_T

So, I must go now, for I have work ... *sigh*

And have you ever read the short story "Thank you Ma'am."? Well, it's the crappiest thing written in the world.

Bye,

Edit: MS and I were being sarcastic. XD

Today!

Today's about my day at school...

So, first thing today, we had Math(which I may have mentioned is not my favourite subject.) But Ms B is awesome! She makes math, fun and hilarious! We gad two periods of Math, fifty minutes each.

Next we had Social Sciences with Mrs R-though she wasn't there today, so we had a substitute, whos name i cannot remember.

Then I had my lunch, which was not appetizing for me at all! It was pretzels and a granola bar, we hardly had anything in our cupboards this morning. But I had to admit..the pretzels were good. Oh! And I had apple juice as well!

Then once again we went back to the sub for Mrs. R, and we had a double period of language, where we did a bunch of useless crap about editing and crap. It was...crap.

Then we finally got out of that dark room(It's always dark, I don't know why, Mrs. R always has the lights off and the only source of light is her computer and the windows...it's very creepy...) And we went next door to Ms S-our awesome French teacher!

So that was basically my day...It's finally the weekend, and I'm very, very happy! Tonight at four I have a party my friend CR put together, it's a "Moo Day" party. (She really like cows for some reason...) So I have to bring milk,-which I love! It's my very favourite beverage..yet I'm not strong. Confuzzling...

Not sure when I'll start the point of this blog, but I'll tell you how much closer I'm getting for my Life as a Photojournalist is getting. I'm going to join the yearbook! It's allows you to take pictures of the school, and write little blurbies about them!

I also saw on a door today something called a "Photography Club." But I'm pretty sure it's just for the high schools, so I'll join next year when I'm in grade nine!

It's hard to think I'll be graduating again this year! It feels like only yesterday I graduated from my elementary school!

Once again...I would like more followers, but I don't mind, it's like I'm talking to Meredith(HI!) only at times.

So I guess this is it, bye!

Emma.

((Note for Mer!-Let your family read my blog too!))

Another School Day Past...

So here I am..at the library again-so that would be a "no" my computer still isn't letting me on blogspot. Or at least it isn't letting me log in.

So another school day passed, and it was okay. It would've been perfect if Mrs. R wasn't there.. She's not really the greatest techer.-Okay, she's a good teacher, but she's not really the nicest.


I always come here with my friend MS-you see I've been mentioning her for about 2/3 posts I have, well she's my best friend. She's awesome!

Anyways..I need something to talk about..but I'm not sure what..I just felt like posting..

Maybe I'll just post tomorrow. Since the computer is being STUPID and saying I have ten minutes left.... hmph..

Post/Talk To You Tomorrow, Emma.

The Un-named Post..

So I haven't posted in a while. It's been pretty busy, my birthday was five days ago..(YAY!)..and I got some awesomely-awesome things.

• Two Tank Tops
• A matching cardigan
• Coraline (Awesome-est movie ever)
• Howl's Moving Castle (Be jealous...very jealous..)
• 100 dollars! (My grandparents rock!)

Now that was from my family, the next things I got are things I got from my awesome friends!

• InuYasha Season 2 (MS thought I was getting season 1 from my parents, so I'm buying season 1 with my 100 dollars)
• Earrings that say 'dance' (Which is funny, because I don't dance..)
• Earrings with a matching necklace.
• A Panda thing. (It's hard to explain..maybe I'll take a picture of it, and post it here.)
• $4.50 from my friend LD, 2.25 is enough money to buy a drink from our school vending machines, and I always complain that I don't have money OR a drink. So this fixed both! :D

• Make-up, (Lipgloss, eye shadow, that kind of stuff.)

That's basically all..it's been a super-fantastical birthday! So..I guess this is a short post. I'll post again tomorrow..or try to at least.

Talk/Post later- Emma.

Welcome to My Thoughts. (School, and Purpose)

Finally a new post! Sunday the library was closed, (because the librarians need some day off!) And Monday it was closed too, because it was Labor Day.

So when I got here with my friend MS, I had to change my password, because I couldn't remember it! So finally I managed to change my password (and write it down on a piece of paper!) and finally log into blogspot to post!

So this post is about my thoughts, just random things that pop into my head.

I'd been thinking about what to post for two days, and I had a bunch of ideas. But now they all escape me! It is very frustrating.

One thing I remember is my teachers, I was going to make up things for them. Well I have a couple, since it is high school. (It's really still elementary for me still, but I'm in the High School, so I believe I am!) So I have my Homeroom, her name is Ms. B, she teaches us Math. I'm not really fond of Math that much, it's actually my least favourite subject. But, it's really fun with Ms. B, we have much of the same humor.

The next teacher I have is Ms. S, she is out French Teacher, and she is also really fun and nice. Sometimes in the middle of class, a old student of her will just walk in to say hi!

The next teacher is Mr. P (the only boy teacher I have.) He is our music teacher, and he's also nice, but very strict. This one boy in our class-TJ- walked in late, and Mr. P was furious, he like almost yelled(more like a raised voice) at TJ. But TJ is always late, so I didn't blame Mr. P, he deserved it.

My gym teacher I had year, she's also really nice(most of the teachers where I go are!) her name is Mrs. MC. We have to change for gym, which I've never liked, but when your a pre-teen it's helpful, because you sweat so much!

My science teacher is Mr. S, I also had him last year, he was one of my favourite teachers.

But now, I introduce you to the only teacher I have that I don't really like. Her name is Mrs. R. She's also my neighbour!

But my favourite teacher of all time is coming back after Christmas! But he's also a Mr. S..so that may be confusing. Well then, the Science Mr. S will be Mr. ST and Music(I think he's taking Mr. P's spot-Mr. P is probably a fill-in.) And the other Mr. S will be Mr. SL.

There everything worked out! :)

So now the other part of my blog, the purpose..
I'm thinking of taking a picture posting it here, and then talking about it, like my feelings and all.

I don't think that'd be boring!
Now I think this is enough for today, I'll maybe post again tomorrow.

Thanks for reading, Emma.


Edit: WOW! This post was long!

My First Post Ever-Meet Me.

So here we go, my first post ever.

Ever since I can remember I've wanted to be a teacher. I wanted to teach younger children about the world so they could live in it.
But last year I found my love of Photography and Journalism. So I have found my new future: Photojournalism, or a Journalist, or a Photographer. I would be happy with either.
Hi, my name is Emma. I'm twelve, and turning thirteen in a couple days. -September 10th to be exact-So as you can see, I'm a fair bit off of going to University or Collage. But that doesn't mean this blog will be pointless.
I'm thinking that it'll be about my life-my journey of how I got to this.
So I'm in Grade Eight, I'm at a High School (which name I'm not going to tell you.) and I have tons of friends (Who I'm going to use their initials when I speak of them)
Since I'm so young(ish) I will have few grammar and spelling errors. So you'll just have to live with that! :D (Yes, I will use smilies! I'm thirteen for goodness sake!)
So my computer at home wasn't working, so I'm sitting at a desk, in my towns public library writing this. I hope my computer will get fixed soon, if not, my school it right across the street from the library, so I'll come here and post.
So there's my first post, maybe I'll come back to the library tomorrow and post!

~With Love (To Whoever's reading this) Emma.
