    I enjoyed going to preschool because I thought as if I was as big and as tall as my brother and sister. I was really excited to finally go to school on the first day. Soon, I got to meet some of my new friends and teachers. We had lost of fun and got to play most of the time. One thing that I did at preschool was to learn how to make balloons talk! The first time I learned how to do it, I thought it was really cool!<br />

    For kindergarten, I went to Vancouver Christian School where my brother and sister went to. One memory of kindergarten that I remember is when Aidan got hit by a rock. All I really saw was Aidan with blood on his forehead when it happened. D: some ppl say that i was part of the rock fight. <br />

    When I was about 8 years old, my family went to Barbados. I remember that we went to the ocean and saw these big fish called barracudas and see lots of sea creatures. And then, we got stung by some small jellyfish. Also, at our hotel we got to go snorkeling and play water games like Marco polo.<br />

    In the fall of 2007, Gideon, Zachary, and I, plus a few other kids, came to this camp called Fall-0. Every morning, we would go to this building to sing songs and learn about God. Then in the afternoon, we could have free time and to exciting activities like going swimming or shooting at the archery range. One funny memory of Fall-0 was when Binky (Someone from our cabin), was changing in front of our cabin door. Suddenly, Gideon came into the cabin and saw Binky changing. He then yelled, “Ahh!! Get away from me!!” and ran away.<br />

    Around The world<br />

    In the summer, when I was 10, my family traveled to England. A few places we went to were the Buckingham Palace, the Tower of London, the Stone Henge, Alnwyck castle, Bambrough Castle, 9 and 3 quarters at Kings Cross, and Waterloo Station. One memory was when Sarah, Michael, and I, my sister and brother, went down on a beach at Bambrough Castle where there were gusts of wind able to hold you up. It was really cool because when you were running against the wind, it was like walking. There was also a ditch I fell into when I was going back to my car. <br />

    After our family took a trip to the U.K., we went to this place called Waterloo Station to take our train to Paris. In Paris, my family got to see cool things like the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre Museum. There was also food there that tasted delicious. We went to a chocolate store, a bakery store, and some nice restaurants. I remember that one hotel we slept in was not very comforting. A few things that were not so great about it was that my sister’s blanket had a blood stain, the window was broken, the bathroom smelt like urine, the remote for the T.V. didn’t work, and the hair dryer wire was cut in half. Other than that, I had a great time at France.<br />

    In the spring of 2008, my cousins, Jacob, Joshua, Kara, my aunt and uncles, Auntie Norma, Uncle Berry, and Uncle Charlie, plus my dad, mom and I, went to Palm Spring in California. There my dad and Uncle Charlie went golfing and my cousin and I went to the swimming pool almost every day. One time, we went to a mountain and saw all the buildings and houses at the bottom. I also saw a snake, a dodo bird, giraffes, and lots of other animals. Another thing we did was go to Joshua Tree National Park which was a desert where there were lots of lizards. <br />
