Days That Tire Me

Sport Fit Canada


Anyways, to start off this post, I'll be talking about the thing that seems like the most important thing in the past few days since the last post. It just so happens that Sport Fit Canada chose our class in Begbie to volunteer to lead a few courses (basically setting up the course, instructing and helping). I thought it would be a really fun thing. We had eight courses, so the class was split up into eight groups (I was lucky enough to land with at least one boy). My group was picked to do the 800 Meter Run/Walk and it was outside (I thought it was going to be even better outside). Now, the groups were assigned on Wednesday. I unfortunately did not know that the next two days of my life was about to be really hot. Here are the groups that were outside.

Thursday


So here's what happened on Thursday. It was the first day of the program and a guy representing Sport Fit Canada came to instruct us on how to set up the inside courses. My group had already planned out (with the help of our teacher) on how to set up our course. So while the inside groups starting setting up, we went outside to set up. The guy from Sport Fit Canada (named Drew) helped the other outside group (there were only two) to set up the 30 Meter Sprint (for the first time). For the first few classes that came, we did okay, but not perfect. Drew helped us with the first few classes and then finally on the last class, we got everything perfect. The 800 Meter Run/Walk team and the 30 Meter Sprint team joined and we all took shifts at different stations. We also took turns sitting under the umbrella (that our teacher lent) and when we had breaks (basically when we finished early or when the class was before recess), we listened to music. It was pretty fun for the first day, but I fell sick later at home probably because of dehydration.

Friday


Friday was basically the same thing as Thursday, except we did a much better job and instructed most classes perfectly. This day I brought two water bottles (unlike Thursday) just in case. That day though, I had to demonstrate because Thursday was for the intermediate grades. Friday was for the primary grades. So I had to give them a quick demonstration of running a lap out of the four. I did that for every class except the last few. Also, the umbrella fell down and we discovered that it had broke. It did the same thing on Thursday, except without the breaking part. I didn't feel sick after and it was a much better day. I also helped with some of the inside courses, just like what I did on Thursday, so I guess you could say that both days were the same thing.

Funny Things


I'm currently on episode 10 of Glee and it's called Ballad. For you guys who don't know what ballad means (most of you probably don't), it means any light, simple song, especially one of sentimental or romantic character, having one or two stanzas sung to the same melody. Anyways, the teacher of Glee told everybody that they would get partners to sing a ballad. It just so happens that one of the Glee members was not there and the teacher had to step in. His partner (a girl) falls in love with him and she starts stalking him and living in his house. And there's also another girl (not in Glee though) who is also in love with the teacher. I still haven't finished it, but it's probably the funniest Glee episode so far.

Exciting Things


Anyways, today I was playing my current online browser game and I got pretty ticked off because this other player kept on attacking me just because I just started (it's a hard game). That's when I realized that I could do something really cool. Instead of playing that lame (and I have to admit, hard game), I could make my own! I knew HTML, CSS, JavaScript and I could easily get a MySQL database, but I was still missing one huge part of making a massive online browser game. I didn't know PHP. I'm going to set my goals on PHP for now and since my other computer (a desktop) is about to be fixed (it broke a long time ago), it will be a lot easier for me. Keep on checking on this blog for more updates on my most recent obsession involving the world of coding.
