    Well hey all, havent spoke to you lately!! </span><br style="font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
    So much has happened in the last week. </span><br style="font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
    This
    will probably be a short post because my hands are sticky. We're in a
    heat wave all of a sudden. With the humidex or whatever that is, its
    over 35c. WOAH! </span><br style="font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
    So I'm
    going to take you through my week, starting with last Tuesday, I think
    it was the 31st? Well. That was one of a kind day! It was the day
    before a huge grade 8 trip that I will get to later. Anyway, before
    Tuesday I was selected as a grade 8 Public Speaking Representive out of
    the grade!! Major accomplishment for me. Anywho, so Tuesday I had to do
    my speech along with 24 other contestants in front of 3 schools and
    some judges. I've never 'specialized' in public speaking and have
    bordered on stage fright. But..I guess speeches on Pompeii do get you
    places </span>[img]smileys/smilies_02.gif[/img] I pleaced 2nd overall. </span><br style="font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
    Then
    Wednesday..yikes. That's the day we embarked on our 2 night 3 day trip
    to Ottawa, I didnt have time to post a lot about it! It included an
    Imax movie which I'm scared of, Boat Cruise up/down the canal, which
    I'm scared of and never been on a boat, and a 6 hr car ride (car
    sickness..what if!) But I went, and after 2 nights at the Holiday Inn
    and lotsa car riding and finding a new love for boats, it went GOOD! We
    were constantly going places (ie museums) and there was only 1 v*
    occasion. At the restruant the 2nd day for dinner. One of my guy
    friends threw up..I didnt see/hear him do it, just all of a sudden I
    heard "MORGAN THREW UP IN HIS CUP! IT LOOKED LIKE THE INSIDE OF A
    CHICKEN POT PIE!" Luckily I was sitting with 3 friends who know about
    my emet, and so they immediatly told me to take a gravol, stare at them
    and not think about it. They destracted me and then asked the teacher
    if we could leave for the market we were in early. Thank god we could,
    they sat down with me in the shade and we listened to a man playing a
    gutair for dollars. I requested a happy song and after that with the
    help of my friends was okay, and able to enjoy the rest of the trip. I
    am sincerly happy I went and enjoyed every minute of it. I will be
    possibly posting pics soon, and I hope ya'll are doing okay. </span><br style="font-family: verdana,arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">
    Love Laura</span></font>

    Laura, that's so cool! Reminds me of my ten-day trip to Washington coming up at the end of the month. Glad you had a good time. Made me more confident about mine. Congrats on placing 2nd. =D

    Laura,


    Cool pictures!!! Thanks so much for sharing them with us! It sounds like you had a great time with your group! Congratulations on being selected!! That's a huge deal!!! I've never been to Ottowa, but have always always wanted to go! The pics look beautiful! I am so proud of you for getting through that v* experience! If I had been in your situation, I don't think I would've been able to be so calm. But you did it! And you had a great time! Good for you!


    Congrats on placing 2nd!


    You go girl! [img]smileys/smilies_04.gif[/img]
