Choreographic Workshop, Twilight, and Sara's Noticed Lack of Blogs

I attempt to blog when I can, but because no one else blog's much, I have to wait before the page just becomes a blog of posts by me. I concur though. Blog please, because sometimes I start to wonder if you guys are still alive.

So I had my school's big Choreographic Workshop on Friday. You may have already seen some pictures on Facebook, but I thought you all should know that I'm going to buy a DVD of the performance, and show it at our next movie night! *Warning, performance includes monumental amounts of twitching, insanity, and The White Stripes.*



After our performance, we took our time getting the teasing out of our hair and the crazy makeup off of our faces. When my Mom, brother and our friends got out of the auditorium, we all met up and talked to my teacher Ms. Hogg about our performance. Then, Mom, Michael, Blaire, Kathryn, Thomas, Jessica, other Emma, and ME Emma took two different trips to the Queensway movie theatre. We stood in line for Twilight and I saved our seats when everyone else went to get food which included Yogen Fruz and Gummie Bears! We had to run to save those seats by the way, and they turned out pretty well.
Twilight was an okay movie. I liked all of the actors except for Kristen Stewart (Bella), Robert Pattinson (Edward) and possibly Taylor Lautner (Jacob). Basically everyone who we love in the book series sucked in the movie. It was really funny at times, and really corny at others. Like when Edward is staring at Bella in the chemistry lab. Just sucked at times, and the camera angles were awful, especially at the beginning. By the way, something I'm ABSOLUTELY DEPRESSED about is something VERY VERY FUNNY AND IMPORTANT that they LEFT OUT OF THE MOVIE!!!

Anyways, I had a writing, hockey and Starbucks day yesterday. Can you guys start reading my story again? The more you read, the more excited to write and finish the story I am. Please? Cody's been great, Sara's been trying, Sophie's given up, and I'm not sure what keeps happening with Alicia. I just want to know that you guys still like my story.

We have to get together to see Twilight in theatres, mock, laugh, and add our own dialogue!!!

Lack Of Blogs

I just have one question for all of you, why was it then when we saw each other everyday and went to school with each other everyday we blogged EVERYDAY, but now that we never get to see each other anymore we NEVER blog? I mean, I miss all of you and i want to know what's going on in your lives, so BLOG!

Garsh, some people. Anywho's in other news, I'm overflowed with yucky homework, we currently have a music project that we actually have to present infront of another grade 10 class, and so far i've got nothing on my part (Alicia I know when you read this you'll kill me) but I can't come up with lyrics for our song.

But other then school there's one thing that's driving me insane. I want to see Twilight!! How come it seems everyones getting to see it BUT me? And what sucks is that everyone is saying its amazing and I can't list my opinion! Hopefully as Emma suggested before, we could all go as a group and watch it.

Well I bestest be off, I've some So You Think You Can Dance to watch (Nico♥).
Tootles!

Take Your Kid To Work Day

Hey everybody, so I'm assuming you all went to work with your parents. Well, I'm sorry, but mine was better.

This morning I went downtown to my Dad's new building. We met some people, then went for a Starbucks. I sat in ten minutes of an acronym filled meeting which I didn't understand, then ran to catch the tour bus for the kids.
And who did I meet on the bus? But my friend from my class at school Maddie, and my friend Thomas' girlfriend Jessica! It was very very coincidental, because we all happened to be sitting in the same area of the bus. So we laughed, got people to wave at us, and yelled at people to try and get the eerie silence of the bus to die.
We did this huge tour of the three CanWest Buildings. First we ate Timbits, and took pictures with the 90210 poster in the Barber Green building. We went behind the scenes of ET Canada, and then a group of us went onstage and met Rick Campenneli. (I hope that's how you spell it.)

Me on the ET Canada Stage in front of camera.


The whole group, me at the right side, Maddie in the pink, Jessica in the black.

We did the traffic, learned how to work the weather screen (we made the entire USA so windy and cold that you can't see it anymore.) I even read an entertainment newscast off a teleprompter.
Then we watched an epsisode of the Global TV Show 'The Guard' that would air on TV for the first time later tonight. It only arrived at the studio this morning.
Duncan Clarke and another journalist from the National Post talked to us about life as a reporter and working on a paper. We got these special newspapers printed with our faces on them and an article about our trip.
We saw a really hot construction guy, and played Are You Smarter Than A Canadian Fifth Grader? On our way to Dose online magazine. We went into their offices and saw a Rise Against poster, and chatted with them all about Twilight. I even won a prize pack with t-shirts and stuff by answering a trivia question.

Q: What is the name of Jacob Black's father?
A: Billy Black!

Maddie got to film a movie of Jessica and I in front of our whole group. It was a spoof of Heroes. I was invisible woman. I ran at Jess and dissappeared so she looked around wildly. Because of the fact that she's fire woman, she made a flame in her hand, but I attacked her and she exploded! It only took two minutes to make those awesome special effects!

It was a lot of fun, and now I'm sad to go back to school tomorrow! Jess is coming to the choreographic workshop Thomas and I have to do, and after that we're going to watch the Twilight movie, so not all good things come to an end!!!

14!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yay!!!!!!!!!! I'm finally 14!!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys are lucky your bdays are in the warm months! My weekend was kind of ok. I got cake and my friend Rebecca came over, I got an ipod radio, the first 3 twilight books, and clothes, oh and a dog pencil sharpener. It was pretty good but I kept having to go back and forth to Sunnybrook hospital because me grandma is there for some kind of test.
On Friday I had to go to the dentist. Wow I saw before and after pictures of my teeth braces work wonders!
On Sunday I had to go to a dance concert and sell Bay cards for $5 each and you get 15% off any item on Nov 1. It was for costumes though so I can't complain. My mom is one of the costume ladies!
Then in between all of that I had to finish my Great Expectations project, finally its done though and I'll never have to touch that dumb book again.
Well hope everyone is having a good week. I have a test next period lucky me. wish me luck.
