smelling the sea lions

OI OI OI!!

Burde rette min ryg.

waah!

Looking awesome

Ligger bare ned

Relatives?

I'm your friend!

"What?, What?, What?"

Coolo!

Waaah!

Race Rocks diving!

Most B-E-Autiful dive:

I dag var vejret rigtig godt! Og perfekt at kunne dykke i Race Rocks. Der var en hel masse søløver og de kom rigtig tæt på. Har set dem før, men enkelte. Jeg var lidt mere rolig end nogle af de andre, men fair enough. Det var awesome! Jeg kan kontrollere mit air i bcd'en godt hørte jeg. Det cool man!

Har taget en anden våddragt, håber den er ok.

Havde room dinner, men glemte det næsten. Hahah Inês gjorde.

Thanksgiving weekend

Jeg var inviteret til Thanks giving til den værtsfamilie jeg var hos før skolen begyndte. Jeg inviterede Sabrina og en 1st year Xue-meng inviterede Ilana. Havde et job at gøre, at informere at Sabrina var vegetar - det havde jeg selvfølgelig glemt at fortælle, men det gik. Efter at have være der tog Sabrina og jeg til en anden værtsfamilie hvor der også var andre. Vi så film og hyggede.

Friendship evolves. It can be good with new change, but also hard. Like you can share your experiences from the past, but might not be experiencing new ones - you can, but maybe you've just become different people and don't have a vibe anymore.

Uanga kammalaateqarusuppunga, som vil se mig, hvor jeg ikke bare skal prøve at se dem.

Ukioq nutaaq med nye mennesker and new experiences.

3rd dive in a row!

Diving:
Diving is somethings that just makes me soooo happy! If I'm feeling a bit out of it, diving will turn it around and I will be better afterwards.
Claudia gave me her dive, because she was going off campus. Sabrina got asked first, but couldn't do it, so I got asked. Bragged about it to Sam, just to annoy him.
We went to the same place we went on Wednesday. Jasper was my buddy and we tried to find the weight. We descended where Aia and I kind of went up. Courtney and Ian were looking for it too. When we descended I saw the sea lion again! I didn't get startled, it was like hehehe seen you before ;) Near the rock we were it was so beautiful. It was where we should have gone. Apparently we went too far down for me to go and think Aia and I went around 8 meters to far down than we were supposed to. After the dive I explained the area where the weight would be. Went down 24 meters!
And Wednesday might have gone 26 meters, my limit is 18 meters... But who knows.
After the dive Courtney asked what I was going for Project week and told I was doing Wilderness First Aid. Then she asked if I had a plan for the next Project week and said that I should talk to her about doing a Research Diving Project week as she thought that suited me! Awesome!!!!!

Postvcard and marine science diving!

There are times when I just space out. I have no thoughts at all, I'm so lost.

Postcard:
Yesterday I got a postcard from my lovely 2nd year, Riikka. It was so nice!
In response to her letter - Santa is from Greenland. Hheheheh!

I've found in a challenge in Studies. It is the calculator, whereas the challenging part in SL was understanding the concept fast. I think I could if I just had more time and if I started earlier.

I get upset/happy when I do something good or when I'm being complimented of doing something right as I think it happens rarely here.

Tried to do some commonapp stuff and it's so long man! omg... Am I going to go to university this year, have no time...

Dove in marine science!!! The way I love it. I still feel like I'm on the water!
Inês and I ate some food from Ty! Pop-corn :D hshahhahaha so her though.

I can't read philosophy. I read and get nothing out of it, so I stop reading, Sowmya is going to help tonight, I have a outline due tomorrow. Didn't have phil and wasn't up for it, so that was nice ish. Was feeling low, but better after marine science and diving.

Now I'll do biology before I'll see help.

Look so funny!

But whatever, diving is worth it :D

Haha my head so round! :D





I'm going to make dive dagbog, så jeg count my dives. Courtney said I was doing good for my 6th dive! Awesome.
We hold a camera, which was a bit difficult. Se sit ilt og buoyancy og kamera.

Thoughts

This was something that should've been before the one I just did.

Er nød til at gå tidligere i seng, fordi jeg har næsten ingen energi om morgen når jeg er gået sendt i seng. Jeg når ikke alle mine lektier, men prøver på at gøre mit bedste, hvilket er det eneste jeg kan prøve på.

Jeg tror den idé at gøre et fag om dagen, og så fokusere på det ene fag vil hjælpe mig. Jeg prøvede på at starte med det, men blev fleksibel og gjorde det ikke. Men nu vil jeg RIGTIG gøre det, og har en fornemmelse om at det vil hjælpe, men nu må vi se.

I'm starting to enjoy biology again, because it's taught the way I'm learning, which is the best feeling ever. Jeg lære når jeg ser hvad jeg har brug for at vide for eksamen og når der er eksempler as in visual examples. Ligesom i biologi og marine science.

I have a hypothesis:
If I pass phil. and Eng. with 4, I can work hard on other things. The way I'm struggling with two of my three higher levels.

I love when I found myself be good in something, which I feel like happens rarely here, but maybe that's just lack of confidence.

Jeg er helt lost når jeg ikke ved hvad der foregår og hvad jeg har brig for at vide. Engelsk og filosofi er de fag, hvor det er sådan. Feel like it's bull pooh and giving evidence, and I'm bad at that. I'm more of a factual person.

Had two tests today. For french I didn't study, because I'd forgotten about it, but some of the things went well. Like knowing the verbs, but conjugating didn't go that well at all... Philosophy test didn't go either. There was a part, which I kind of knew, but not really but I managed to do it right!
I really do have to look at philosophy for my IA. Ew...

1st real dive

Had some notes, but they aren't here, so tell about them later.

Diving:
Had a free block in the morning so I set up my gear then.
After school I took on my wetsuit and then went to the boat. We went to the end of Pedder Bay past some point, where I think I might dive tomorrow. That's where the other Marine Science class did.
OMG! Before we went in the water we saw a sea lion near the boat. Jeg gik baglæns i vandet, det var total sejt. Aia var min buddy. Vi var ved noget kelp, nok også kelp forest. So colourful! Purple things, things with spikes. Saw a gumboot chiton at last! So B E A utilful. There were heaps of forgot there name, something with swimming clams.
Vi var i bunden hvor der var meget, og lige pludselig var der en søløve der svømmede bag Aia. Viste hende at hun skulle kigge tilbage, men den var væk, så mimmede det og hun forstod. Den kom igen, og den var omkring 1-3 meter fra os! Så sejt, men lidt aaargh i begyndelsen.
I starten lignede det ligesom i et akvarium! En stime små fisk, og så var der en stime større fisk! Aarrgh elsker dykning!
Aia var ved at løe tør for luft og vi prøvede på at gå op. Jeg kunne got, men hun blev nede... Det tog noget tid at prøvede at skubbe hende op, hun fik mindre og mindre luft. Kunne se hun var ved at panikke, og startede næsten også at panikke. Tog hendes ene vægt af, og hun kom op. Hun var et stykke oppe for mig, og så ser jeg den anden vægt. Dykning kan også være risky. Holdte den ene jeg tog. Og alt gik ok.
I begyndelsen kunne jeg gå ned, men Courtney fortalte det var normalt og gav råd på hvad jeg skulle gøre. Der var så meget frihed end da jeg blev trænet op. Meget mystisk, men fint nok. Skal dykke igen imorgen, hvilket bliver sjovt og spændende. Lære noget nyt hele tiden.

Gik til Alashua's solo teater stykke. Det var godt. Proud friend I am. Vi ordnede et par tanke. Gik i bad, men har ladet min våddragt blive i badekaret, thinking of if I should leave it there for tomorrow, or put it in as I'm diving again tomorrow. I've already done my preperation! :D
Went with Ploy to the dive room and did some more tanks and some philosophy. Started really late and it's due in two days. The way I'm bad at it. Had my FOA in English, survived.

5 river otters and 1st time filling up tanks

Eqqarsaatikka maannakkut allattarpakka, så jeg ikke glemmer dem. So I feel a bit more sane as in knowing what's been going on with me. I tend to forget things very quickly.

Tuluttut, altså faget, makes my head ached/ tired. Naluara sulerinersugut. Det gælder også filosofi. Fagit allat tigusimassavakka... Marine Science nuannerinerpaavara. Jeg skal ud at dykke i kelp forest på torsdag. 2 gange den her uge! :D
Neriuppunga Math Studies-mut nuunera vil gøre mit liv lidt lettere. Nu vil jeg se om jeg kan komme til at fokusere mere på Biologi.

Skal tage nogle engelsk test for at kunne søge ind i engelsk talende universiteter. De koster penge... Der er ACTs som jeg tager i Vancouver, og kommer til at se Bader! Yay! Også skal jeg også tage nogle andre nogle. Dem kan jeg tage i Victoria, men skal snart have skrevet mig op!
Der er så meget! Tests, EE, universitet snakning og ansøgning, og se om det er nogle skoler for mig.
had an EE talk, and haven't done anything at all even though I got feedback a month ago... Sometimes I wonder if I'll survive academics.

Sometimes I feel like my brain just disconnects from my body. I'm just totally lost, and really hope writing will help me a bit.

For thanks giving I'm taking Sabrina to the host family I was hos, og skal derefter overnatte hos en hun kender - værtsfamilie. Spændende!

I feel like math is so easy, but so easy that it is difficult! Feel way more confident even though I need to catch up, it's a different math. A few other students also dropped, we're like 5 in my class I think. But that said, there are the other subjects... But now I can hopefully enjoy math a bit more, who knows?

Alashua showed me how to fill tanks up and when we finished we saw 3 river otters! It was so cool! Unfortunately we didn't have any things to take pictures of them, but just seeing them so close as we did was amazing! We on our way up when they were gone saw them again and then there were two others, so 5 in total! AMAZING! Some things are just great.

Mine værelseskammerater!
Det er nogle dejlige nogle :D

NARD dinner

With most of my passdown
some of them I lost, because they were discovered at a place they weren't supposed to be...
It's fine

1st musical café & room bonding!

Musical Café:

Musical café was very nice. There are so many talented people here on this campus. Who can either sing or play an instrument. Some of them just make my heart ache, because they’re so beautiful in their actions.

It made me a bit confused of why I’m here, as today too some people were showing other kind of talents. And I at the moment I’m just in low confidence and stuff, but whatever.

Had room bonding afterwards, which was nice. We made fondue, but made way too much. We invited some people and chilled for a while. It was nice.

Jeg tror jeg putter mig selv ned hele tiden, fordi ting ikke går som jeg vil have det. Kan ikke rigtig gøre for det, det er bare sådan jeg føler lige nu.

Den værtsfamilie jeg var hos før skolen startede havde en trampolin, så havde lidt sjov med den.
De har inviteret en første års elev, der var der efter jeg og jeg hen til dem når der er Thanks Giving. Må gerne tage en med, så har spurgt én, må se om hun vil med.

Aia fra Palestein og jeg i orienterings ugen.

Det er hende jeg skal til NYC med i juleferien :)

Metchosin Day!
Det var ret windy den dag, men godt nok :)

Samme slags billede som fra sidste år!
Den gang vi ikke rigtig kendte hinanden og et år efter!










Kan mærke jeg har brug for pause med mennesker. They're everywhere. Og når jeg ikke er helt sane, så er jeg ikke rar og kan blive ret bum bum bum.

Synes det med at small talk kan nogle gange bare være akavet. Men det starter en samtale, og man kommer til at lære en anden person lidt bedre. Man ser dem med andre øjne. Før var det nogle man bare så, men efter at have snakket har man lidt mere tilfælles. Det rart, men også svært. Med tiden går det nok. Håber der kommer mere tid, synes jeg altid har noget eller prøver på at gøre noget. School bbuh...


Climate change presentation:
My co-year Tessa made a really good presentation about Climate Change. It's very inspiring as she too like Christie is working on something she is very passionate about.
It included aspect of all corners of the world.
Floods, droughts, animals and humans!
I can't summarize it, but it was really good. And what was said is true. It impacts all of us. We should all contribute to make a change.
But sometimes I personally think I forget to do things. And what I dreamed about before I came to Pearson.
Like I want to save animals, such as turtles. I love them! But also other animals, and they too are affected either by the climate change or deforesting of forests. Polar bears, monkeys. Etc.

If I was as brave I would like to educate people too or just make some kind of impact. I think Greenland should recycle too and stuff. Do more green energy, such as sun energy as the summers are very full of sun. And what not?

Orthodontist

1. dag med ændrede klasser. Det er dog kun 2 fag der er ændret på mit skema. Havde en test I matematik det gik nogenlunde, men ikke det bedste. Jeg følte mig ikke total lost, som jeg plejer. Håber på at catche up.

Biologi var okay. Det var andre mennesker, som jeg kender. Jeg skal dog stadig lige vænne mig til en ny klasse, det samme med matematik. Begge Sabrina’er sagde at de savnede mig i deres klasse, hvilket er rart at høre, at de gerne vil være sammen med én. Biologi og matematik klasserne byttede bare. Så det var lidt mærkeligt at se den klasse jeg lige har været have time, og jeg var i en anden klasse.

Jeg var endelig hos bøjletandlægen efter en hel måned. På vej hjem kørte vi forbi Dairy Queen og jeg købte en blizert (en is) og en ice coffee. Men mine øjne var store end min mave. Så har gemt min ice coffee i fryseren hos Julia og Jamaal. Jeg shoremasterede sammen med Alexandra fra Finland, det var vores begges første gang. Det gik nogenlunde vil jeg sige. Vi havde lasagne for aftensmad! Nam nam yummy yum.

The beginning of the day I felt quite down. Too much of everything. I just wanted to cry and disappear. Then I think at some point I find a note from Noa, which was so warming and nice. Felt so emotional afterwards. There are just some people I just really appreciate. They know me so well, more than I know them, which is a shame. If I don’t change that I’ll be disappointed on myself, but I hope they know I care about them. There are also some people I shouldn’t spend too much time with, otherwise I will get too much of them, but it’s normal. I should keep that in mind. It can be hard being around people 24/7 and it was really nice getting away just for a little bit. Like going to the orthodontist.

Håber at have rykket ned I matematik vil give mig mere frihed til at fokusere mere på mine andre fag.

Nårh ja, vores brandalarm started mid tom natten kl. 3. Vågnede og prøvede at finde mit tøj, men så stopped den. Så gik vi alle I seng igen. I dag sagde vores værelsesnabo at hun også hørte den.

Er konstant træt. Vil tage tingene som de kommer. I morgen har vi vores første room bonding! Spændende. Vi vil se film og have fondue, så håber jeg kan gøre nogle af mine lektier om dagen.

Synes jeg ikke er en god house spirit, men what ever. Doing my own thing and stuff. Hope people enjoy it though.

Service Day

I dag havde vi ikke timer. Vi havde en dag om Service Day, hvor vi startede dagen med at have morgenmad med vores Advisor groups. Det var ok.

Vi havde mange guest speakers, først med nogle af lærerne. Christie's speech was really touching. It was so personal and inspiring! Many people and myself really felt emotional afterwards.

Der var tider, hvor jeg bare havde lyst til at kramme folk.

Der var et tidspunkt, hvor jeg bare var helt vildt træt! Prøvede at lave lektier, og faldt næsten i søvn foran skærmen af min computer. Øvede lidt Math Studies, og der var nogle ting som var helt lette at lave, hvilket jeg godt kunne lide. Håber min IA jeg brugte så meget tid på kan bruges i Studies. Det var noget jeg gjorde godt i.

Den værtsfamilie jeg boede hos et par dage før jeg kom til skolen, inviterede en 1st year og jeg til thanks giving. De sagde jeg kunne bringe en med. Vil se når jeg har tid om nogen vil med, så jeg kan svare dem.

Hello again folks

Tirsdag 29. September 2015:

Jeg har ikke skrevet I lang tid! Ikke siden omkring Februar måned. Har oplevet en masse siden da, men har ikke tid til at fortælle alt.

Er nu i mit 2. År på Pearson og har været her omkring en måned nu. Selv bare den her måned er der sket nogle ting. Der er meget mere arbejde end sidste år. Blev færdig med min TOK essay! Hvilket er dejligt, og er det eneste jeg kan krydse af fra min to do list/ bucket list. Er kommet ind i dykning!!!! Og er en PCERT (Pearson College Emergency Response Team). Hvilket er cool, men også lidt aaargh! Er helt vildt træt for tiden, og tror jeg er begyndt at gå lidt i søvne eller sådan noget, der var two incidents, where I woke up with my phone not being where I left it the noght before. Har en filosofi annotated bibliography for til i morgen aften. Har ikke læst så meget… og har besluttet at rykke ned til math studies… hvilket er ok, men så også lidt skuffende af mig selv, havde nok lidt for høje forventninger af mig selv. Eller så skulle jeg bare have arbejdet med det mere sidste år også. ville ønske jeg kunne gøre nogle andre fag, men what ever, will try to survive.

Der er en masse jeg vil skrive og huske, nogle ting som jeg ikke vil  - fordi det er skole arbejde… mæhæhæhæ.

Er begyndt at lave noter til mig selv, for at prøve at se om det kan gøre mig lidt mere orienteret om hvad jeg skal gøre. Synes ellers jeg får nok søvn, men er simpelthen bare træt meget lige for tiden. Har mange tanker, men ingen tid, så lidt af gangen er fint. Det noget jeg vil gøre mere, lige som sidste år, at reflekterer og huske ting der var gode og knap så gode.

Heheh i dag kanoede jeg også, men kom til at få Sowmya i vandet, fordi jeg ikke holdte kanoen ordenligt, det var lidt sjovt, men også lidt, ups…

Ok, er træt og vil sove.

Onsdag 30. September 2015:

I dag fik jeg ændret mit skema, da jeg flyttede fra Math SL til Math studies. Hvilket nok bliver bedre for mig rent psykisk, selvom jeg ellers ikke ville flytte i starten, men får altså ikke hvad jeg ville. Kun to fag ændrede sig i mit skema, hvilket jeg sådan set forudså. Jeg mener jeg kommer til at have 5 timer med Ali! Hahah vi har ikke den sidste time sammen p.g.a Historie og Biologi.

Dykkede i dag i havet for første gang, hvilket vi kun gjorde ved the docks. Men stadig! Aia badede i mit hus, nu mangler vi kun East House! Hahahah

Fik at vide at vi skal dykke i Marine Science næste torsdag, blev helt excited!!!! :D Er så glad for at jeg blev certified over the summer. Havde også PCERT træning.

Har én filosofi opgave til i aften, det vil jeg starte med lige om lidt.

Ville nu stadig ønske jeg fik tid til at lære mennesker mere, men det vil nok komme. Fik også betalt tilbage til skolen, for min billet til New York!

Er ret glad her for tiden, indtil jeg skal starte min opgave. Udover det selvom jeg får nok søvn, så er jeg helt død. Er bare så træt, men har hørt andre co-years sige det samme. Forstår hvordan min 2. årselever havde det nu!

Har informeret mine houseparents og nok også Libby at jeg gerne må være hos Bader når jeg har min test om 3 uger, SKAL snart starte med at studere for den test.

Vi har fået e-mail om hvordan vi har universitet noget.
