After all of the years that I spent at SMS, I'm finally leaving! I've been here since kindergarten and now I'm going on to the high school! I have so many good memories from this school, and I'm sad to leave, even though I'm excited for high school! I've had special memories in almost every grade that I've been here. One of my favorite memories from eighth grade is going up to ELC with the whole grade! From making a teddy bear with my mom to our final concert, I'll never forget my years here. :)

ELC!!

On Wednesday it was cold and rainy, and we learned about smammals (small mammals) and climate. In the evening we went on a night hike, even though it was cold and rainy. Someone even fell in the lake! Thursday was one of our really fun days. After we woke up and ate breakfast, we had the adventure ropes course. It was about 30 feet off the ground, with four challenges, and it ended with a zip line! A rope bridge led up to the first platform. The first challenge was probably the hardest- a single tightrope with bungee cords leading up from it to wires at your waist. Then there was just a single log, a single tightrope, and two logs. On the zip line at the end it felt like I was flying! I even did the ropes course blindfolded! It was so fun! After lunch we had competitive orienteering. I was with my friend and a chaperon, and later we teemed up with four other people. We did really bad, but we got to slide down the side of the mountain in loose dirt! In the evening, we had F.I.R.S.T. games. We had a bunch of activities, ending with us getting the whole grade over a flat wall that we had to pull everyone over! On Friday, before we left, we had rock climbing. We learned how to belay, and then we got to start! It was so fun! I almost kissed the goat, but I couldn't make it to the top of that course. On the bus ride back, most of us slept, and then we stopped at Gooseberry Falls. We finally made it back at about 8:00! It was such a fun trip!

Jobs
This is another post for my 21st Century skills class. It's about work, and what kind of job I want to have when I get out of school, or even when I'm still in school. You can enjoy going to work each day if you like your job a lot. Also, you don't always have to get paid. You can work in a non-profit organization and donate the money that you earn to charity. I'm not exactly sure what kind of job that I want after I get out of school. I think that my dream job would be either something with food, like a chef in a restaurant or working in a bakery. Or it would be like a fashion or wedding dress designer.
