I enjoyed that we got used ipods for practicing, because the years before, I wanted to, but thanks to the iPods I have done better than before. What I didn’t like was that we couldn’t use iPods for the real day, and that we had to run 2 laps, even though last year the 6th [...]

I’m in the community and service group. We meet every Wednesday at 8:15. In community and service we help people in our  community, Japan, and the World. At the moment we are going to help out with planting vegetables, donating money for an orphanage  and donating money for Cambodia. We are planning a Christmas party for the kids, so we need money [...]

My favorite things we did in Hakuba was probably the canoeing, because we had so much fun, singing random songs while we were canoeing. The campfire was also good, because in all the years I had camp, it was always raining when we planed to do the campfire. Plus, the songs were really funny, like the peel [...]

On the last but not least day in Hakuba, we went rock climbing, and I did 2 out of the 4 walls. Of course the walls I went on was the easiest ones. Time passed by soon, and suddenly, I was sitting next to May on the bus, not really wanting to say good bye. I had [...]

In day 4 we went hiking, one of my least favorite things to do in the country side. After 3o minutes or something, it started to get really foggy since we were in the clouds (aka Zeus’ area to my friends) and there was sooo many steep hills, I slipped, and ruined my shirt (which happened to be white) with [...]

Day 3 in Hakuba was  really fun!! In the morning after breakfast, we took a walk to the Aoki Lake, and when we arrived there we did team activities. The first one we did was one where you had to stand on a stick, and switch over people with out falling of the stick.Also the same except [...]

In tech class we learnt what makes a good blog.  We looked at other blogs, and wrote down what was good about them on a google doc. We also made a brainstorm, about what we wanted on our blog, and had a few sheets that we had to full in, that showed buttons that we use on [...]

I woke up at 2:30 and heard people talking. Talking? Finally when I went back to sleep, I woke at 5:30, but it wasn’t the girls. It was the boys. Annoyed, I stayed in my tent trying to sleep- and failed. When it was 6:30 the other girls in my tent woke up, and we [...]

Boy, I was tired when I had to wake up at 5:00 in the morning,I was quickly woken though, because I was going to Hakuba for 5 days-I couldn’t wait. Walking to school with my dad, I met several kids on they way. But then I saw lots of kids by the buses-and teachers as well. I [...]
