Quick write - worst meal.

The worst meal I could imagine would smell like you got attacked by the creatures in the sea. It would smell very salty, and fishy. The smell would be as though you were to get slapped across the face with a rotten fish. The taste of this meal would taste like a garden that hasn't been watered or tended to in a long time. Bitter, dry, and tough to chew. The taste would linger in your mouth and you would feel the texture of the rough dried out, soiled garden. No amount of water can get rid of the taste, no amount of spray can get rid of the smell. This would be, the worst meal for me. 

Quickwrite - Eden

My Eden may be a bit of an odd mix. First of all, I would need my space to be split in half. One half of this space would be an enclosed gym to satisfy my cheerleading needs. This gym would be surrounded with windows so you can see outside on sunny days. Inside this gym would be a top of the line air conditioning system and everything would be a light or dark shade of purple. The gym would be split into two rooms, one room would have a spring gymnastics floor covering the floor. This area would be used to run the cheer routine, and practice stunts. In this same room would be a viewing space with plush chairs to keep my guests comfy while watching the routine. This room would have a camera in front, which would be connected to a big screen to be able to watch the routine on playback.  The second room in my gym would be filled with training equipment: spring floors, trampolines, tumbletrak, foam mats, foam pit, all to perfect our team tumbling. 

The second half of my Eden would be the best drag racing track I have seen. The track itself would be smoothed an glued to perfection. The tower where the executives and announcers watch from would be all glass, and about 7 stories tall for better viewing. The stands of spectators would have padded seating for comfort, and shaded over hangs for hot sunny days. The concession stand would have a wide variety of food, to please any guest, and would be prepared to perfection at a resonable price. For the racers, each person has their own space to tune their cars, and clear their head. With all of their favourite snacks and beverages. Shaded overhangs would be provided so that cars and drivers don't get too hot. At the end of each race, there would be a professional photographer to take pictures of the driver and car, and would be provided for free as a momento. 

Both of my passions would be mixed into one space, drag racing and cheerleading. Which is why this would be my Eden. 

 

Skype Session - April 28th/2014

I think the session today went well. Every session with the Grade 3 class in Thompson is interesting, and always amusing. I enjoy kids, and seeing how they interact, so it's really cool to be able to Skype with them, have them learn from us, and have us learn from them. I think today's session went the best out of all of them in a way, because we were able to show them what we created out of what they taught us. It gives them a sense of accomplishment, becuase they got to teach grade 12's how to do something, and it was cool to see their reactions to that.

I enjoy the collaborations with the grade 3 class, because kids are an overall joy to see and interact with. Its interesting to see how they use social media at such a young age, and how it differs from the way we use social media. The class also seems really well behaved, which is nice to see from such a young class, and our class could probably use a lesson on behaviour from them.

Nationals 2014

A little over a week ago, my cheerleading team competed on this amazing stage at the Cheerleading Nationals in Niagara Falls. It was such a rush performing for such a large audience! We finished 9th in Canada.
