French Finals and French Singing

Today i took a test in my french class.  I absolutely love french but was studying it today.  Now its weird to type in english and i keep putting extra letters where they would be in french words... But on the up side we got to listen to Mikas song Elle Me Dit today before our final and it is an awesome song.  Here is the link

Conclusion

So for our writing class we are supposed to do a conclusion.  I decided that i really liked doing a blog and want to keep it up.  my posts have been kind of sporadic, but i would like to start posting at least once a week.  I think the main focus of my blog is on things that interest me like dance, my family, and other stuff like that.  I'm glad that we were able to do this in class and am thankful for the opportunity to start a blog.

The Titanic

Okay, last post of the night.  Tonight i went and saw the titanic in 3D (amazing by the way).  I thought it was really interesting how it came full circle though.  I haven't realized it before tonight, but i guess i was looking at the movie more analytically.   The first thing that i noticed was that the quality of the movie was better.  They still took a lot of the main stuff from the former movie, but I think they changed around some of the backgrounds and i liked it more.  In the beginning they meet at they back of the boat and than Jack says "if you jump, I jump."  Right before the end Rose ends up saying the same thing that Jack had said previously.  Than right before the boat sinks Rose says how they met in the same place that they were at the time.  I think subconsciously people like to feel that things ended right, and even though Jack still dies in the end, they were able to leave their audience with a sense of the movie coming full circle.  It was cool to see how what can be used in writing is also used in films such as this as well. 

Family Pictures

These are some favorite ones of my family

I love the picture above because it shows all of us together even though its older. The one below is one of my favorites because i feel that it shows all of our personalities.  I also think its really cool that my parents are standing in the background watching over us.  

Butchart Gardens, the Sunken Garden

Another Picture of one of the beautiful gardens.

Okay, so i noticed my blog looks a little boring so i decided to add a few of my favorite pictures to spice it up a little :) These is one i took at the Butchart Gardens in Canada. They are the prettiest gardens i have ever seen and loved going there.
