School starts in just... 11 days! I can't wait1 I'm starting to get really nervous!! But I still can't wait! ok then, see y'all later. Heheheheehe!!!

Can't wait...

I cannot wait for school! I'm sooooooooo excited!!!! I have my uniform and I learned how to tie a tie. I'm just so excited, but it's not long, only... about three months. School starts on september 2nd.

All that i've i've been doing lately is MATH!!! I did four pages yesterday and four and a half today, it's crazy but also really good!

Here's proof

<---

I have to finish all of my math books over the summer so I'm not lost or anything when I go to school.

School is going to be so much fun!

It will be my first year of school and I think I might actually be okay and not be behind in my subjects (I hope!...LOL)

I get to wear a uniform, it's not private and it's all girls and it's only Junior High. I've also been reading like a maniac, I've been reading the Twilight series and I'm waiting for book three.

I'm Back!!!!!!!

I'm soooooooooooooo glad that i'm back!!!!!!!! I had sooooo much fun!!! I can't wait to see all my friends!!!! I went to the Kruger National Park and I went to Shelly Beach which is about an hour away from Durban. On my birthday I went to see a movie and I saw Marley and Me, it was really good. I got as a gift from my parents, 1200 rand which is the equivalent to about 150 dollars. okay bye.

I'm so sad!!!!!!!

My friend Ayden's Grandma Grace has passed away. She had Cancer and I'm in SA not there to be with her. I really miss her! My whole family will be thinking of her and the hard times that Ayden and her dad and aunt and all other family who knew her. Cancer Sucks!!!!!!!!!!! I miss you Ayden!!! and all my other friends ( of course). We send our love! Love you Ayden.

Working! I'm on Holiday!

Today i was working at the Walkerville Pharmacy, My granny works there as well as my aunt.
I was helping Auntie Hessy ( I'm not related to her ) sort out shoes, and lots of stationary and party stuff. The second day of work I got a free bottle of perfume, although it was a tester, it smells really good. I had to climb the ladder and bend down lots. I even learned how to work the computer ans so I could help the customers when they came to the counter and no one else was there. I had lots of , I even got to stay till closing time and I got to help them get everything closed up and stuff. I had lots of fun. So far I've worked three times and i earned 100 rand.
I'm bound to work some there before we come back to Canada. I don't mind working while I'm on holiday, it's lots of fun, and when I'm bored it takes away the bordom.

Another Rainy day

It was raining yesterday and we were going to the zoo, but we couldn't so we went to watch a movie. My mom and I went to watch Bride Wars and Aimee and Boona went to watch the tale of despareux. bride wars has Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson in it. the movie I really want to see is Twilight, I heard that there is a sequel to it called New Moon.

Annoying Little Stink Bug!

my sister is a very annoying Little girl, especially today, all I've been hearing is whine, whine, whine, and it gets on your nerves after a little while( trust me). It is raining like crazy over here, we haven't been able to go swimming for the last couple of days and that really sucks!
So we are house bound today, and it sucks! But no matter what I till love her!

Shopping!

I went shopping at the River Square near Johannesberg, South Africa, to look for some sandals for my mom. We went into just about all the shoe to look for shoes we found nothing, so we all decided( begged mom) that we should go to The Milky Lane, which is a really yummy ice cream shop. After ice cream we went browsing the mall, and we found a little shop called Hang Ten, it had some really cute stuff, the only problem was that it was all too big for me, so we left and went to Rage, it also had really cute stuff, the only promlem there was the prices, the one dress that I liked was about fifty dollars, so yeah. There was a Jep store next to the Rage store, and I really want somtning with a Jeep logo on, so we went inside and I found a pair of really cute shorts, but there was one little problem, the price and so we left. we couldn't find any shoe's for my mom so we decided to go home, and on the drive home I aked my mom if we could go to the pharmacy in walkerville, where my granny works, at first mom said no, but then shee changed her and so we went there, and they sell green cross shoes there and they were half off, so mom had a look, and she found a pair that she likes, so she paid for them and we went home, and the funny thing is that we went everywhere for shoes and all we had to do was come back to walkerville and buy them there. I'm glad I asked to go.

Swimming!

My grandpa has a pool at his house and we are going swimming today, we did go over to my granny and grandpa's yesterday, and we went swimming, although we didn't have our swimming costumes, aimee borrowed a costume from her cousin Cailyn and I borrowed one from Cailyn's aunt Mary, which fit me perfectly. So today we are going swimming again, yesterday at swimming was a little cold, it was also overcast, and the pool was FREEZING!!!!!!!
But Aimee and I had lots of fun, even though we only swam for about five maybe.

First Day in SA

We landed at the Johannesburg airport early this morning, and my grandparents met us just after the check-out or something. I'm EXHAUSTED!, I slept very little on the plane, and I've been trying to sleep since we got here but it just isn't working. It is soooooooooooo hot here, i'm wearing shorts and a tank top and I'm sweating, I'm not complaining though. My dad's side of the family has a pool at there house and I'm so anxious to go swimming, but I have to wait. The time is different here so it might say that I posted this at like 4:52 AM but it is actually 3:01. Talk to you soon, bye.

We've reached our half way mark!

We are at the Heathrow Airport RIGHT now! We are at a little hotel place called Yotel, it's really cute. So now I can say i've seen Big Ben, and I really did, even if it was from the airplane, i've seen the River Thames and I also got to see a double decker bus, although I didn't leave the airport or the airplane...LOL. Our next stop is Jo-Berg, and then we have our three months there and then we have to fly all the way back to Edmonton. Last time when I went on an airplane I threw-up, but luckly I haven't...Yet! I haven't slept for hours and I'm exhausted!I slept for maybe an hour on the plane and now at the hotel I haven't slept a wink!, but hopefully I sleep more on the next flight.

I'm so excited!!!!!!

There's only three days untill we go, i'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooo excited!!!!
I'm just about finished packing and then on Monday we are in the air!
okay got to finish packing now.

My New Do

This is what my " new do " looks like. I got blond streaks on the top and some blonde chunky bits under the brown.
This is what my hair looks like, the top ones are lighter than the bottom, but I don't care, it looks really cool either way : )

This is a better look at the top streaks, my favourite part is the different colors all over.

my hair colors and style were based on one of Miley Cyrus' hair do's, it was really pretty, although mine doesn't look quite like the picture, but that's okay.

Only...

...a week till we leave, I'm so excited and yeah.
okay that all I have to say.
I'm getting some streaks in my hair on the fifthteenth and it's going to look so cool, I'll post a picture of when I get it done.

MOM is having a really bad week!

first she runs her Jeep into the ditch and then yesterday she was using my dad's car and she ran out of gas on the way to Old Navy from my japan field trip.
I'm hoping that nothing happens in the next couple of days before we leave!

days to go!

Nine days till I leave!
i'm sooooooooooooooooooooo excited!
we have friends coming over today and it will be the last time I see them before I leave

Days Until I Leave

I'm soooooo excited, I only have eleven days left.

I'm going to miss my dog Chelsea sooooo much, and my dad and of course all my friends!

Aimee and I are having our b-days there, with all our family, it's going to be so much fun.

Cold Winter Days

oh man, it's so cold, and the roads are really bad. we were going to the city but my mom doesn't want to drive. I have a japan field trip with my friend Tatyanah, it sounds like a lot of fun!

We have at least a foot or so of snow outside.

I watched I Am Legend today, it was a little bit scary, well actually it was a lot scary : ).\

We are so busy for the next couple of days, most days we are doing some thing, and days that we are free we are doing stuff at home, Way too busy!

Days Until I Leave

I only have twelve days until my mom, sister and I leave for South Africa!!
I'm sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
excited. I will be doing this every day, so it will be a countdown until I leave.
I will also be putting some pics of the places I've gone, and tell you what i did there.

Our New Car!

This is our new car, it's a Nissan Versa. It's really nice, it's not my mom's Jeep,

but it's okay ;-).
It's very pretty and really nice on the inside.
We have to use it until we leave for South Africa, i'm so excited, but that's not what i'm suposed to be talking about...LOL.
These next twelve days are going to be hectic, we have to pack, clean, sign stuff, see people and way more, but when we are done my mom, sister and I are going to be swimming in my Grandpa's pool, which is so worth it.
And i'm sure that evreyone that's reading this will be sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo jealous...he he he.

My awesome Halloween Costume!

This is my Halloween costume that my mom and I dreamed up when we couldn't find any good costumes left at Walmart.

We decided that a female Zorro would be cool. My freind and I went trick or treating around her house for hours! It was soooooooooo much fun, my sister Aimee was a warrior princess, I think : ). She was soo cute, she had crimped hair and gorilla-like boots and black leggings. I got lots of candy, and Aimee and I together had a whole Sobeys bag full of candy.

This was my best ever Halloween Costume.

It was hard to keep the mask on with my glasses, but my dad helped me figure it out.

Now Addicted

I am now addicted to blogging.

when we go to South Africa, I will be posting as much as I can and I might have pictures and yeah.

Okay well. bye. Michaela

No Car!!!

Today we don't have a car, because of yesterday, so tomorrow we are getting a rental car.

We were going to go and watch a movie and go to old navy, but because we have no car, we can't.

Today is quite boring, just chores, Schoolwork and nothing else really.

January 5, 2009

Hi, this is my first blog so please forgive me if it isn't too good :)

Today on the Way to Tofield, we ran into the ditch. It was really scary, mostly because it was on my side of the car, everyone is perfectly fine, which is wonderful, the car is a little banged up though. when we got to the Tofield  video mill, I went inside and bought lots of candy, because i had goosebumps and i was really scared. My sister took some pictures with her little digital camera,it doesn't take very good pictures, but i might post them. itI'm so excited about going to South Africa, it's only one week and six days till we leave.
