Time Capsule '09

Thu Jun 11, 2009, 7:01 PM
This is my grad year as you know, so they are getting us to submit a letter or pictures/drawings for a time capsule to be opened ten years from now. How exciting is that?! I can't wait hahaha! :) anyway, this is what I wrote:

Dear future me,
I hope you have achieved everything I hoped I would have achieved ten years from now.
Recently, I watched a film called "HOME," that my teacher Mrs. Vasiliu showed to my class. It's about global warming, deforestation and the rapid depletion of earthwater, etc, etc... and all the ways human beings are hurting the planet, just by trying to survive. I really hope that my future self will have done something, or is about to do /something/ to make a difference to our earth, the only planet known to sustain life. It has given birth to us, and we are destroying it. Maybe I'm thinking a bit too deeply on the subject. It's not like I'm planning on becoming a research scientist or anything, but hopefully one day at least once will I have done something good for our planet. That is my dream. :)
Some things I am thankful for include: music, culture, language, diversity, civilization, nature, friendship and most of all, art. I am grateful for the respect that I receive and that I give, and the smiles and moments I cherish. I wish never to forget them. I will look back at this in ten years and think back on my life and all I have done, all the people I've known and all the memories I've made.
Another goal of mine is to try hard to have a positive outlook on life in order to live it to the fullest. I want to smile at least twice every day. Happiness is not attainable without a bit of work! I will work hard and stay busy, and things will undoubtedly go my way.
I remember not too long ago when the guy I like gave me a necklace. I hope the future me still has it. I am also remembering my trips to Ontario a few years ago, the brilliant summers, my first time driving all the way to Chilliwack, and the first two concerts that I've been to. There's a lot more that's happened to me, but I'm trying to keep it short and sweet. There's so much to say about how thankful I am for all of my teachers, including my parents, friends and old babysitter, who taught me the proper way to fold laundry (the same method I still use today and forever)
I'll never forget any of you. My love runs deep, and with this, life begins...
Love it! :)

(the ending sucks..haha...tell me what you think??)

OMG! Okayy...where to begin? First of all, I would just like to mention that I have been working really hard lately on both my art and high school portfolios. On the 20th I submitted my art portfolio to UFV (University of the Fraser Valley), a day ahead of the deadline. I actually had received an extension on the deadline, which got bumped up to the 17th (previously it was the 25th)...but there were a few complications weeks earlier (which I won't get into...) that didn't allow me to complete my art portfolio within the time frame... Anyway, that's all sorted out, and guess what?! I got accepted! :D Meaning they liked my work! EEEE! *happy squeal* I can now breathe a sigh, only one so far, of relief.
Alright, Second of all, on the 8th of April I wrote the LPI (Language Proficiency Index) exam, and just today got an email about what I scored. I got a 5! Out of 6! I'm not that proud of my score, but other people got worse, so I'm accepting it. It's good enough. *dance* If you didn't know, the LPI is an exam that you take if you aren't getting top marks in English...which I'm not, sorry to say, but it isn't like I'm failing or anything. Anyway, your score gets sent out to all universities and colleges in the area, and if you decide to apply to them, they'll look at your score to get an understanding of your reading comprehension and writing abilities, etc etc. Exciting right? So, right now I'm waiting for the letter from UFV to arrive, about course registration, and the letter from the LPI office as well. I can't wait!!
Third of all, a few weeks ago my art teacher made me submit a piece of my art to the Harrison Ranger Station Art Show, for the BC Arts & Culture Week. I didn't believe that I would win anything, although I couldn't really be sure because I hadn't actually gone to see what other kinds of things people had submitted. But I was getting ready to leave school last Thursday and I hear my name on the PA. There was this envelope waiting for me in the office with a photo of two horses on the front, and a check for 30$ inside. I won? O.o wtf? But they never wrote down what place I made...haha. Even so, I got a lot of congrats for that one. And all of this has happened within the last few days! It feels like I should be very relieved and be able to celebrate, but in reality I have a lot to do still, so I have to concentrate! There's a lot I have to think about and I still have an English essay to finish! :D Also, prom is coming up pretty quickly, so I have to keep my head on straight and make sure I can have a fun and relaxing time there without having all of these worries in the back of my mind.
OK, that's all for now! I'll leave you with a touch of my happiness, MWA! <3 '3'

P.S. I just found out today (Apr. 29) that I placed 2nd in the Harrison thingy!! :D Have a kick ass day guys! <3

I am sorry for my recent inactivity! I promise to start submitting more works but my scanner is not working for my laptop right now. I will try to fix it >.<...Being a 12th grader is tough. I am always really busy. I have to get my act together. I will be aiming for Emily Carr University in the next year or so :) It is very exciting. Have fun everyone I will try to learn from you all and become great in my own way. :D
