My Christmas

           My favorite holiday has to be Christmas. Halloween is coming soon but I still like Christmas better. Not because of the presents people give you but I like spending time with my family. My parents are mostly working so I like having them around on Christmas holiday. On Christmas all my favorite movies for that season are aired on TV like A Charlie Brown Christmas, Frosty The Snowman and The Grinch. The music for Christmas is so calming and relaxing. My favorite Christmas song has to be Christmas in Hollis by RUN DMC. During Christmas I normally help my dad put up the Christmas lights on the house. I shoveled snow with my friend at the house because I live in a town house and we have sort of a small drive way. Christmas in BC nice when it snows, but after it snows a lot it starts to rain even more. I like going to Whistler for Christmas because of what you can do there. So even though Halloween has almost arrived I still like Christmas better.

   REVISED


        On Thursday morning I woke up and was excited because I was going to make a kite. I walked into class and saw the board at the front and it said assembly but the kite workshop was at the end of the day. The assembly was cool because they had all different type of kites. Near the end of the assembly they held up a huge kite of a whale I wondered how long it took them to make it. We  walked in to the gym and saw the items used to make the kite on the gym floor. After listening to the instructions we finally got to make the kites. Making the kites were not too complicated, I ran outside with my friends and launched my kite in the air. When I went to the end of the big field I unraveled the kites rope until it was just the handle. The day was nice and sunny but windy enough for the kite to fly without me having to run. At the end of the day it was cool to see all these colorful kites in the air.

The Grouse Grind

When I woke up in the morning I felt excited about doing the Grouse Grind.  At the same time I also dreaded it because I was still sick.  As I was walking to school, I thought about who I would be walking with and how long it would take.  Last year it took me about an hour and fifteen minutes to complete.  When I walked into the class room there were a few of my classmates there already.  I gazed at the board and saw who I would be riding with.  When we arrived at the mountain, I frantically looked for my friends.  During the first quarter my legs felt different, they were sore!  At the half way point they started to feel normal again.  I wondered what changed and why.  During the hike I took in the scenery.  It was nice when the sun was coming through the tress.  After making it to the top of the mountain I felt very accomplished and hungry.  My friends and I went to the cafe.  We then walked around and looked at what was there.  When we got in to the gondola, I gazed down at where we hiked and what we went through.  I felt good when I looked at the mountain again from the bottom.  The car ride back felt awsome.
