My charts




This shows every thing that I've done, and I think that I could do better







In this chart it shows my speed, and overall speed and accuracy put together, and it shows that my accuracy is a MAJOR factor in my overall score.









In this chart, it shows my progress in accuracy and overall speed. I personally think that this is a very useful chart.

A new years to REALLY forget



This new years, I had my own party on the beach. So we were having a good time, and then it started to RAIN! We had to go get a tarp from home, and then we realized it wasn't big enough, so we went to get ANOTHER one! Once we came back with the big tarp, it stopped raining. My dad was so mad, but I tried to make the best of it. Later on, around 8:00 p.m. I wanted to give my friend Sarah a piggy back, and so she jumped on my back and it turns out that my back was having a spasm at the same time, so we went falling backwards on Sarah's back. Luckily she cushioned my fall, but I still hurt my back A LOT! And then I was running around in the dark when I stepped on a dead puffer fish. That's when things got really bad. They had to take out the spikes, and then they soaked my foot in this stuff that made it really sting, and I cried. Then the fireworks FINALLY came! I didn't really enjoy them, because I was in a lot of pain. Then I had to walk home and I stubbed my toe so hard I swear I broke it! I cried a lot, and I wasn't happy. In total, the best part of new years, was going to sleep.

Mashups!

A mashup is a mix of different songs to make a new song. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLDZ_zfQ2fM&feature=related and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g_AklBD1E_c&feature=related I don't know any good mashups... here are two interesting ones I found :)
What makes a mashup good is when the different songs blend together like a real song. What makes a mashup bad, is when you don't blend the songs together, and you can tell that something is isn't right. Sadly, I didn't find any sites with tips :(
People who make mashups are true musicians. They have to know the beat of a song to match in with another.

My artifact from the future

I decided to do a bubble maker that makes the bubbles in really cool shapes. I chose this because I love bubbles. I recently learned how to make them, using normal soap. I imagine a kid blowing bubbles, and around him/her is millions of shaped bubbles. I hope my idea works out.

How my family reunion would be!!!


This is my family tree. Unfortunately, I've never had a family reunion, but this is how I always imagined it. I would walk in to find all of my family members from my dad's side, because I haven't seen a lot of them since I was about 5 or 6 years old, and they would all welcome me with warm hearts. They would be interested in how I've been these past years. I would talk to my cousins Claire and Alida, and all of my other cousins.

I can also imagine a family reunion with my mom's side of the family. I would be speaking French, and I would be joking around with my cousin Lucas, and we would have a blast!

My beautiful tree!!!


I chose this tree because it's really peaceful. My family isn't dramatic and I believe that my family is as bautiful as this tree. I love my family, and in my family, we love sunsets, so it's a perfect match :) I love this tree and I'm sure my family would agree!
