When I got back from school today, I had to quickly rush to go to my piano lesson. I ended up being about 10 minutes late because everyone was coming home from school so there was lots of traffic.


Ms. Kwok worked with me on the song Jagdlied for the Music Festival. 


When piano class was over, mommy took me to a bakery close by, and I bought a really yummy bun... :P


These days at school, we aren't getting much homework, so after about half an hour, all my homework was done after piano. 


I wanted to play with Sophia, but after my quick homework, I had to practice my violin, and I just finished.... so it's a bit too late to play now... so I guess I'll just play tomorrow...


Oh yeah, I was originally going to do the Team Fear Adventure Race with Niki, but Niki can't do it and I can't find anyone else to do it with me, so I can't do the race after all :( Oh well, maybe next year!

Team Fear Training

It was soooo much fun after school today!! Today it was the Team Fear training. We didn't do much besides running and swimming, but it was really fun. We ran from the school all the way to the beach, then we jumped into the ocean and had to swim about 5 laps all around the sea. It was really tiring but we got to play around at the beach for a bit afterwards.


But when we got back from the training, it was really horrible when we had to change. I was covered with sand and salt water, and I was soaking wet. And I only had 10 minutes to change in order to catch the after school bus! I was really uncomfortable the whole bus ride, but I took a nice, clean shower when I got back home.


Yesterday, mommy had bought me bike gloves, a helmet, and a camel-bak. I had to bring all that stuff to school today, along with my swimming stuff because at P.E. we had swimming again. I also needed to bring a change of clothes including sneakers because we had to swim in the ocean with our sneakers and helmets on!! Yep, it was pretty hard to swim with all those heavy things dragging me down.


I originally planned to be in a team of 3 with Alexandra and Grayce. But unfortunately, since Alex and Grayce are 11 years old and I am only 10, they can't do the under 11 age group; they must do the under 12 age group, and the under 12 group only allows teams of 2. So Alex and Grayce will be doing the under 12 race together, but I have to look for another person to team up with... so, I asked Niki if she could do the race with me... and luckily her mom allowed her to do the race!! So now I have a new team... too bad I couldn't do the race with Alex and Grayce... they have to be 11 huh?!

It was another really rainy day today. But I still had swimming for P.E. at school today, so the water was really freezing!!


At school for Social Studies, we got assigned to be different people for Cultural Encounters. I'm a black smith and I have US$150. Next Thursday, we have to dress up as whoever we are to school.


After school, I had clarinet class and we learnt many new songs... nearly finished with the whole book!!


When clarinet was over, I had disco class. We continued the dances we are learning for the charity bazaar.


At school, there is a program going on called Team Fear. Grayce, Alex and I are going to be doing this. It's a race where we have to do mountain biking, rock climbing, off road running, swimming in the sea, etc... This race is on November 29th and this Wednesday there will be a tryout to see if you are fit enough to make the actual race. 

Yeah! Tomorrow there won't be school because... wait, I don't know why actually! So today was the last day of the short week. There were only 3 days in the week today!!

I had sooo much homework last night... I finally knew what it was like to have lots of homework!! But luckily today, since it's weekend for me now!!

The weather has finally gotten a bit better, so this afternoon it was really hot and sunny!! 

At school today, we had swimming for P.E. It was really fun, and I raced lots of people in my class. But the changing part afterwards wasn't very great because the changing rooms are wet and sticky and changing inside those changing rooms wasn't exactly the best part...

I'm hoping that tomorrow I can go to Ocean Park with Sophia because the weather that is predicted for tomorrow is supposed to be still quite sunny but not too hot and not too cold. Going to Ocean Park during the summertime is a bit too hot... so hopefully Sophia and I can go to that amusement park tomorrow!! I really hope so :)

 

So since I had no after school activities and not much homework, I'm now chatting with Frances and Katy and doing video calls with them :D
