Yesterday I did the grouse grind with four other grade 6/7 classes. Did you enjoy the field trip today? Why?
I really enjoyed the field trip today, I had so much fun climbing up the mountain and also hanging out with my friends. In all honesty, I though it would be way harder. It wasn't my first time doing the Grouse Grind. However, I was expecting it to be much harder. In the beginning of the hike, my two friends and I started together. But we ended up being split up throughout the mountain. I felt very accomplished once I got to the top and everyone was cheering.
What did you learn about yourself today?
Today I learned that believing in yourself goes along way. I know this might sound kind of cheesy, but it really helped me. As well as motivation. I remember the first time I did it all I did was think I would never get to the end or finish it. Therefor, I didn't get a decent time. The second time I did it, I thought it would be really easy so I expected that and I ended up getting a worse time. So, all in all, I think it is very important to believe in yourself and know that anything is possible if you put your mind to it. Because it really does help even if you don't have the strength.
What will you do next time to improve your time?
I really think there is so many things I could improve on to improve my time, however I'm not sure. The only big break I took was at the 1/4 mark. Other than that, I took some sips of water while I was hiking. 
If you beat your previous time, did you beat it? If so, why do you think you beat it? If not, why 
I did beat my previous time by alot. And the reason why I think I beat it was because I went at my level. I could of stopped and waited for my friends, and I really wanted to. But, at the same time I wanted to also beat my time and go to my level. So, I think because of that I didn't take that many breaks and so I got to the top faster.

Now we have been beginning to learn basketball, and I tried out for the basketball team and made it! Basketball isn't really my type of sport, and at our school to be on the team you have to be in grade six or seven. I'm in grade seven now and last year when I was in grade six I didn't want to try out for the basketball team, and so I didn't. This year because it is my last year at the school I thought, why not! I absolutely love playing it, it is so fun and at the end of the day I may have not scored on one hoop, but hey, at least I tried! :)

We are finishing our vollyball unit in gym now. I have learned so many different techniques and they are so helpful. We learned the vollyball dance where we move our feet and when our feet come up so do our hands. Another technique I learned was when serving you go down up and forward. Thanks to my vollyball coach and teacher Mr.Hong for the amazing experiance with vollyball!!!
