December

I am deeply sorry about not blogging in for ever but I have other things to do(not saying that this isn't important). Last night I went to the James 10th anniversary party. It was a lot of fun. There were funny games and tuns of food. I danced and took many walks with my little friend, around the Harrison hotel. I wore a beautiful dress and I am going to wear it to the winter formal on Friday night. Becca, Caris, Frankie and I are going together. We are going to have a blast!

Tomorrow is Frankie's birthday! She finally turns 13. Her party is next weekend and I can't wait. Christmas is coming fast and school is almost half over. Thank goodness. School is so boring but it is better than the other school! Well, we are making cookies and doing laundry so I better go.
Blog soon(I hope!)

Trophy, Half the Size of Me!

I am so sorry I have not blogged in a long time and I figured no one would care but I am getting hounded by friends and family, so I am blogging.

Today was my swim club banquet in Agassiz. It is pretty much a pot luck, an adult meeting and awards ceremony. So we ate lunch and then were kicked outside for the meeting and then we had the awards ceremony. We all got ribbons and best time sheets. There are also huge trophies, one is half the size of me, two were cup trophies and the last one was a plaque in memory of a swimmer that died. It is a great honour to get that trophy as well as the other ones too! Anyways I won the Coaches Award(the trophy that was half the size of me), my friend Jenn won one of the two cups, Travis Scott won the Bob Penner award(the other cup) and Jessy won the Kristy Hatt memorial plaque. It was a lot of fun and I was so excited.


Grade eight is great so far. I love all my teachers, the kids in my classes and the free lunch times at the school. I have not started any sports yet because there is nothing for my grade yet, but in October or November basket-ball starts. So I am so excited. I kinda wish that Becca, Caris and Frankie could be in more of my classes but I have fun with them at lunch and during the classes I have. Anyways I have to go eat dinner so I will blog soon! (not really but I will try!!)

What a day yesterday!

Hi everyone!!
It is Friday the...... i don't know and yesterday was my highschool thingy. It just showed us around the school and we got our schedules and hung out with some older kids that are a part of link crew. The night before Frankie slept over saving a drive to hope at 8 am the next morning. To early and you could see it in everyones faces, but it was really good seeing everyone again especially my friends Becca, Caris and all the guys.

This week we did a lot in Langley. The best part of the week was when we went to the PNE on Tuesday night. We rode the rides for a good hour hour and a half. Then we went and watched the motor cross show. I cannot believe that they can do what they do. All the flips and races around the corners, man it is nerve racking. After the show we walked over to an RCMP tent and an Army tent. We got some pins and tattoos and clips. We then head to the Flying Canaucks show (which is people that are trying to make it to the Olympics or are already in them). It was amazing, they did jumps on their skies and flips on the trampolines. It was really good! Once the show ended to was around 9-9:15 and we headed to the market place. We wandered around there for a little while and then headed back to Langley. We just got into the Old spaghetti factory when it was closing.
Well I have to go blog later.

I'm back and sorry!

Hey everyone, it is Saturday and I am back from camping in Bromley rock. I was a lot of fun and I had a great time with my whole family. Tomorrow my family and I are headed back out to Langley for Blake's for school. When we are there we are going to the PNE and shopping for school. I love school shopping almost as much and shoe shopping.

I am sorry because I insulted Frankie and made her sad but it was not even on the trip, it was when we where home and I was typing it and she would not stop texting me on MSN. So just to get it straight I had a blast in PG and would do it again in a heart beat!!

Talk to you all later

Fun Weekend

Well, I just got home yesterday from Prince George (provincials). I am 18th in the province of BC. I went to Prince George with Frankie and my mom, dad and Blake. On Wednesday we are headed out to Bromly to camp with my grandparents, in our new trailer. I can't wait! Well I've got to go, Frankie is driving me insane and I have to go. Talk to ya later

Fare Well

Fare well to Caris Becca and Frankie. Tomorrow at 10 am Frankie leaves for the cabin and on Monday Caris and Becca leave for camp. The only reason why I am saying my good-byes now is because Saturday, Sunday and Monday I am in Haney at regionals. So have fun at the cabin and at camp and I will miss you all! :)

Update your blogs when you get back or please tell me about your great times without me!

Love: Rachel

I want a new ear!

Hey everyone, sorry about my horrible blogging. I just have nothing to blog about or I am too busy. So yesterday I found out that I have swimmers ear, which is pretty much an ear infection from water. It is only minor but if it gets worse I can not swim at all and I have regionals on Saturday thru Monday. Last night I went to a barbecue at a friends and then I headed over to Franny's (Frankie's) for the night because her mom was taking me to morning swim this morning. Franny came and watched too! Then my dad came and took us home. Later in the day after Frankie left my ear started to kill. It was horrible I was in excruciating pain. So I did not end up going to swimming this afternoon. I hope that it gets better for regionals or I find out what I can do to swim. Right now my life is really not rooting for regionals. I am extremely scared and nervous.

In two days Frankie leaves for the cabin, for 3 weeks. She really wanted me to come but I couldn't because guess why? Swimming, you got it, but next year I don't know how much swimming I will be doing. I hate to think that way, but it is going to be more stressful going into the high school and then not getting home until six thirty, seven o clock on a regular swim night. I also want to have a summer, hang with my friends do some camping with my family (because i love camping) and maybe go to the cabin with Frankie. I will miss it but I do still want to swim just not as much, maybe twice a week. On Monday Caris and Becca leave for camp and once again it will be just me, myself and I. It will be great ;)

I have to go I am watching a TV show with my brother, but I can show u a couple pics that Frankie and i took today, so have fun blogging and have fun at the cabin and at camp Squeah!!
