Glee


            Last year at about this time of the year there was a new TV series that came out. This TV series was called Glee! As the year progressed many people all over the world became obsessed with this series, including my self. They came up with a name for the obsessed people. They named these people “Gleeks”. I can proudly call myself a Gleek. The TV series is truly amazing! Every week I cannot wait for the next episode to come out, and when it comes out I watch it as soon as possible(as long as I don’t have homework). The series is about a Spanish teacher, Mr.Shuester who decides to re-create the glee club, which he was in when he was In high school. At first only outcasts are in club but Mr. Shue gets more people, he tries to get more popular people like the head cheerleader and football quarterback to join the club. Which they eventually do. In this club they take songs and re create them and they have a assignment each week  and sometimes they have competitions. They take a song and then they present it to the class. In the class they mostly just have fun, with the class. For all you who don’t watch glee I highly recommend you do, even if your s boy. A few of my guys friends have watched it and liked it but they are to embarrassed to admit they watch it.

Halloween


Like I said in my previous post I am in Canada right now. It’s fall and it’s really pretty all the leaves are orange and falling. I have not been to Canada for fall in 9 years, its so sad L. Anyways the ambience of falls comes with Halloween! I love Halloween because I love dressing up in costumes, it the best part of Halloween, the candy is good too but dressing up id the best! I do love trick or treating though, especially when you are with a whole bunch of your friends and you just stay up late and have fun!
But what is really sad is where I’m living now they do not really celebrate Halloween outside of the school. In school supposedly it is a really big event. I was going to dress up at school and be a cheerleader, but I think that they day when we are supposed to dress up we have the volleyball tournament L But I do think that someone is going to have a Halloween party at their house. Someone had one last year but people said no one dressed up, because they didn’t have to. I was really sad when I heard that so I asked the person(who is my friend) if they can make it dress up? They said for sure! So for the Halloween party I’m going to be a vampire. Bite me J

Canada

This week is October break. It also signifies the end of the first quarter. Before school ended my Ancient Civ teacher told us that it was the first quarter of our high school life that was complete. He asked if it was significant or not, I didn’t really think that it was that significant. Anyways for October holiday I went to Canada! I am super excited to be here now! I am in Ottawa, Ontario, it is the first time I have ever been to this part of Canada I’ve only ever been to the west part of Canada. I’m super excited to be here I’ve been here two days and I’ve already have great times. I have 5 more days L, then I have to go back to school L
So far I have done a few things. Yesterday (Sunday) we arrived and then we drove around and went and saw the Parliament Buildings. They were super cool! What I learned about them is that the roofs are green because they were originally made out of copper and all the acid rain has turned it green. Just a fun fact for you guys ;) Today (Monday) we drove over to Quebec and went on this mini hike thing and saw a mill were a guy from the late 1800’s did a whole bunch of experiments about scientific stuff.  Then after that we went walking along this road and looked in some shops and bought some stuff it was really fun. I look forward to the rest of the week!

recomendation

“House of Night” by P.C Cast + Kristen Cast
This summer I read the first 3 book of the “House of Night” novels. I thought they were absolutely amazing! I very much recommend it to girl, I do not think that it would be a very entertaining book for a boy. These novels are about Vampyres. They are about a girl named Zoey who very early in the first book is marked by a vampyre. After she is marked she goes to a vampyre school where they teach you about becoming a vampyre. In this series once you are marked you are not automatically a vampyre  you are a fledgling. Your body goes through a change, then you body either rejects the change and you die or you body goes through the full transformation and you become a vampyre. Zoey is very special because she is only a fledgling but she had the tattoos on her face and body of a fully changed vampyre. She is also very unusual because she is the first ever vampyre to have and affinity for all 5 element, earth, water, fire, air and spirit. I have only read the first 3 books but I feel in love with the series and hope to get the rest of the series when I go back to Canada.
