Fly!

Hello everyone, Yesterday I went to a friend's birthday party. I had so much fun. We went to Skyzone Trampolining. It was interesting. There are four different things to do there: a dodge-ball court; basketball court; foam pit; and a trampoline for people to do flips and that. My favorite place was just the normal trampoline. They have it all broken up into about 50 small trampolines and you each get your own. You can do whatever you want on your own trampoline. Some people come and do flips and they are so good. I can't do a flip even if I tried. Mia and I tried to do split jumps and succeeded surprisingly. The foam pit was my next favorite thing there. You have a little trampoline and then you jump into a big pit full of foam. Lot's of people did flips for that too. We then went to Swiss Chalet. It was super good. I loved getting reunited with two people from Upper Canada Village that I met last year - James and Duncan. They are the children of the coordinator for Uppe...

Molly

Hey everyone, How are you all today?? Today I am going to talk about the best cat ever... Molly. Molly does really cute stuff sometimes. My favorite though is when she crawls under your blankets and sleeps there. I have a couple stories of when I almost sat on her because she is literally under the cover. My mom sleeps with a beanbag so that she is warm and sometimes she leaves them in the bed during the day. So they look like a lump, Molly also looks like a lump when she is under the covers so sometimes we think she is a beanbag and sit on her or I've even jumped on her. Oh well maybe she needs a sign like Garfield. STOP. THINK. CAT'S HAVE CLAWS. That is what her sign should say. Another exciting thing is that my friend Mia (Beijer) turned 13 in the beginning of April and this Sunday I am going to her party. Her party is at SkyZone Trampolining. You get to play games and all on a trampoline. Mia is the girl that I met at Upper Canada Village. She also came to my birthday ...

Cinderella

Hey everyone, I just realized that I haven't talked to you very much about Cinderella. The show is rapidly approaching. 13 days till we are in Centerpoint. We are all working very hard and looking forward to being in the show. We are finally in the very finale part of the show, their wedding. And who knew it would be this hard. Our teacher thinks that we have it pretty well now though. I am looking forward to doing it in costume, with an audience, and make-up. Somehow it so different than doing it in a studio sweating, your hair falling everywhere, and feeling very UN-pretty. Anna-Lee  

the world is so beauty full

Hey everyone, How are you guys today?  What did you do over this glorious weekend? I was out in capris and a T-shirt this weekend and was still hot. It was so nice. Yesterday my parents, my friend, and I went for a walk in a nature path. It was very nice. There was a lot of wild-life. Chipmunks, chickadees, baby snakes, even a hibernating bumble bee. They were all neat to see though I do not like snakes. I left the holding them to all the other people there. I did feed the chickadees from my hand though. They are so cute. I have not fed them for a very long time and I had forgotten how small and light they are. My dad saw the hibernating bumble bee and got a couple photos of it. Basically it had dug a hole in the ground and was sleeping. We went down one path and it had a beaver dam at the end of it. If we were there later we might have seen the beaver, but we didn't. We are going to go back out soon and see if there is any change in the beaver dam or anything. Anna-Lee Here a...

New look

Image
Hello everyone, On Tuesday I did a drastic change in my look. I got bangs and I got a very layered very wavy style. I got the style off the internet and am very pleased with it. According to someone I know the photo is of Carrie Underwood. I thought of a really cool idea. I am going to give you a before and after photo of me, and you guys can either email me or put your comment down below of which one suits me better. I won't be offended if you say my other one. I just want to know what you think. I also got another batch of fake nails. My friend Sophie and I did them the same. Kaelynne did a different pair. Mine are sort of funky (Sophie's choice, I like them a lot though). Kaelynne`s are more like French nails. I have more photos than anything else today so enjoy! My new hair, down! My thumb, with the fake nails. My new hair, up My new hair, from the side Old hair!! SO LONG!! ...

SNOW!!!

I know... it's April. I know... we're getting snow. Am I excited? No. If I could still ski and play in the snow and have fun in the snow that would be different. But all the snow is muddy anc disgusting and it's slushy and it's.. April. It is exactly one week till my sister's birthday. I wish that it was June and sunny and warm. But I went to walk the dog today, and I was more dressed for winter than I was on Christmas day! We have more snow than we had on Christmas day for that matter. I keep on thinking about the pool and bathing suits and that and then you walk outside and you are like "NEVER MIND"!! Anyway on to a brighter subject. I have decided to paint my room. My dad said he would help me in May after my Cinderella performance. My colors are: on the longest wall in my room and my closet, aqua blue with BIG white polka dots. On all the other walls, a light pastel pink. My friend told me it was going to look like cotton candy. But I think it is su...

Me my funny and me my serious.

Hello out there, I am very pleased to announce that I can be serious. My friends and maybe my family will know that I can get pretty silly, if I want to. Here are some things that I am serious about and some things I have fun with. SERIOUS There is nothing wrong with being serious. The thing is that when people are serious the people around them turn serious and that means that you can't be funny. If you live your whole life being serious then you won't ever make anybody laugh or even smile, unless they laugh at your seriousness. Anyway what I am trying to say is that you can be serious when you need to be but don't waste your time being serious. Funny Sometimes, I think people get too funny. I only get funny when there is something to be funny about. When I read a funny book or watch a funny movie I laugh. I think my favorite thing to do ever is laugh. When someone makes me laugh I thank them; it always makes me feel more happy and bubbly. Have you ever listened to th...

Disappointments

Life is full of them and you can't make that disappear. Unfortunately. My result for my ballet exam was very disappointing to me. I hate it when you think you did well and yet you did so terribly. I certainly thought that I had done well. But when I got the mark it was not what I had expected. My mom and dad were trying to tell me that even though I might have gotten a rotten mark from my exam I am still the same person and to not let that mark be a label for me. I am still disappointed but I now know that I am still a good daughter and sister and whatever else I might be. That is my blog post for today, Anna-Lee

Phew! Glad thats over!

Hello everyone, A couple days ago I had my ballet exam. I think it went pretty well, a few mistakes but that is normal. I am such a perfectionist when it comes to dance and school and pretty much everything. So that means I am a lot harder on myself than I need to be. It is good to push yourself but if you push too hard you will get discouraged and sometimes even hurt. That is why I don't like exams. I always tell myself that I did terribly and am so depressed and then when I get the mark and it is actually pretty good I feel like I am being tricked. It is weird and kind of scary actually! I have been told over and over by teachers and friends that I am doing well but I don't think so, so basically I have to choose one person to believe (me or the people around me)! Recently I learned how to trust the other people around me and I find that really soothing!! It is awesome. Even though I still like things to be done perfectly I need to learn that nobody is perfect! Only God is ...
