This Christmas, I absolutely hit the jackpot with a new wardrobe of clothes and the latest Meta Quest 3, which has been an amazing upgrade for gaming and VR. On top of that, I’m feeling pretty unbeatable as the number one goalie in my league no one can get past me! I also got the chance to check off a major bucket list item by attending a college football game, and to top it all off, I’ve been to 10 NHL games this season. My friends are always asking me how I do it all, but I’m just living the dream right now. It’s safe to say I’m absolutely crushing it on and off the ice!

I went to Detroit to watch the Red Wings play hockey at Little Caesars Arena. The crowd was so loud, and it was exciting to see the team on the ice. It was the best game I’ve ever been to. I got popcorn and I sat in the 2 section. they played the rangers and the score was 5-2.

In 2024 Me and my friends at St. Marks got to be in charge of all the technology. We got to set up the equipment, set up the microphones, set up the speakers, spotlights, and got to run the school dances, Christmas concerts, school BBQ, the talent show and school plays. We also got to make playlists for the dances and go to every dance for every grade. We got to skip class to set up stuff in the gym and it was always fun because once we were done we could stay in the gym and play games, just the 5 of us.

During the Summer of 2024, we went to Boston and New York with my dad and my brother, and Ohio with my mom, brother, and my aunt. In Boston we stayed in a nice fancy hotel near a cruise dock. In New York, we went into the Empire State, Town Square, and the 102nd floor of the World Trade Center. In Ohio, we went to a nice hotel with a pool in the center where the inside rooms can see it(we got an outside room.) Then, we went to the Kalahari water park for the rest of the trip. Also, I recently went to Jamaica for my mom's birthday and we stayed at the Riu resort and climbed Dunn's River Falls.

In the summer of 2024, My parents and I got an email from the people who run the Strawberry Festival, and they asked me to perform drums on stage in front of a lot of people. I obviously expected gratefully and joyfully knowing that I might be famous around my town. Then on the day of the Strawberry festival, I loaded my drum kit in my moms car, set it up, and drummed Sweet Child O Mine by Guns N Roses in front of almost 100 people

One of the best things I did in 2024, was go to " O Cirque Du Soleil". Cirque Du Soleil was sooo cool and it was so fun to watch people do amazing tricks. One of the tricks was that two people were stacked, and one person jumped SO high and landed perfectly on the stacked peoples shoulder. The second best thing that happened to me in 2024, was Christmas! One of my Christmas presents was a telescope!!!!!!!!!!! I was so grateful because the telescope was AMAZING. Me and my mom set it up in my bedroom so I could look out my window. The first thing I spotted was Mars. all I saw was a little red dot, but it was Super cool! I also tried the shaqalicious gummies, they do NOT taste good :(

In 2024 I kind of got a job.I helped my to cut things for her work because her boss needed help cutting things. I made a hundred bucks, because I had cut so much about more than 3 hours of cutting and I had a cutter. With that money I bought many things including Lululemon shorts in blue. I really wanted them for a while and I felt proud that I could buy them myself. Something else I want to brag about is my trip to USA during the summer. It was so fun and I got to go shopping.My Mom gave me a hundred dollars and I got to buy all the things we don't have in Canada that a really wanted.I got to try different food places that we don't have here too(I went to Ulta).Over all I'm really grateful all the amazing things I got/did this year!

In 2024, for March break I went to Mexico to an all-inclusive resort with all of my family. I was very excited when my family announced this last January and very thankful. At the resort there were 3 pools that were all huge. Also in the resort there were also all sorts of stores, places and a beach, all for free. For example, there was a bowling alley, ice cream shop, a poolside bar with drinks, and even a stage where there were performances every night. There were a lot of food options such as, a Japanese restaurant where they make food in front of you and throw rice in your mouth and you have to catch it midair. There was also a steakhouse but you had to pay for that 😥. There were buffets that served breakfast all day and had so much food.

In the start of 2024 I went to Barcelona and went to Madrid. I watched Barcelona play and got to meet Raphinha, a Brazilian soccer player, from whom I got a high five and a signed jersey. I also went to England in the summer and went to Liverpool and Manchester. I also watched my favorite soccer team play, and sadly I did not get to meet any of the players this time. I also went to Thailand and went to Krabi and saw a lot of beautiful beaches that have crystal blue water. I went to this place called the emerald pool and the cyan pool

the emerald pool was the color of an emerald and the cyan pool was so cool that everytime I clapped it bubbled. The best thing I got in Thailand was lobster because it was so cheap and so good

Thanks for reading.

In december 2024 I missed the last week of school and went to Mexico with my family. We did a lot of fun stuff like going to the beach, restaurants and a lot more. I was hoping to eat a lot of tacos but I was only able to have one.:( I went with my mom, dad, sister, nonna, cousins (a lot of them), my aunt and uncle. We went to the beach pretty much everyday. On Wednesday my dad went scuba diving and we saw a lot of fish and even a sea turtle, it was really cute. Instead of a two week break i got a three week one :)

Last year in 2024 I went to Cuba for my birthday it was my first time there, and it was a pretty great trip. we got to relax and go to the beach there were shows and other fun activities. It was the highest-quality resort in that area it was a 4-diamond resort. Something I accomplished in 2024 was winning a gold medal in a jiu-jitsu competition. It was a little hard because the girl I was up against tried to break my arm which was not allowed and ended up winning that round. Those were some of my favorite things in 2024.

In 2024 september 16 - 26, I went on a vacation to Phoenix Arizona to see my close younger cousins. We did go there for a very sad reason but it was fun seeing my cousins again since the last time I saw them it was when I was 5. Me and my family saw some places in America that you wouldn't see in Canada. For example, Target, Pacsun, In & Out, Ulta Beauty, Panda Express, etc. It was 100 degrees out in the heat there everyday. I did end up getting sick, and so did my family because of climate change from the breeze to summer weather. Even though I did go for a sad reason I would rather share only to my family and my close friends, I had really fun coming back to Arizona US again. :)

In 2024, there were two things I considered to be the highlights of my year. First, I went on two trips. I went to New Jersey and Dominica. I went for a quick, 3 day trip in New Jersey, and came back with fun memories of waiting in long line ups and getting my now favourite sweater from the airport. Dominica is a beautiful country in the Carribean. I went there for a week. The air is light, the sun is bright and everything just felt AMAZING! It was the week before my birthday, so I got to choose most of what my parents and I did, including a known tourist trap that was actually worth it! ( I met the owner and his cat! ) The second thing I loved this year was Christmas. For Christmas, I got Jordans from my cousin, a Pandora necklace from my mom, an Ipad from my dad and a $100 dollar bill from my grandma ( which I split up into twenties ). Overall, I'm very greatful for everything I recieved and experienced last year!

In the summer of 2024 the most fun thing i did was, my best friend has a cottage and this summer i got to go up with her almost every weekend. Both her brother and her uncle have boats so me and my best friend would always go tubing on both boats for hours at a time with music playing. We would always go swimming in the lake and jump off of the docks. My best friend's brother would always take us fishing on his boat especially at sunset so it would be really beautiful. Her brother would also cook the fresh fish we caught and we would eat it when we got back. She had a golf cart up there and we would drive just us two in the dog park really fast.

In 2024 I went to Turkey. We did many things like go on a hot air balloon, road camel, try new foods and much more. We even stayed in a cave hotel for a night. It was really cool and kinda scary. We went out for dinner almost every night trying so many new foods i've never heard of before. We even went to the grand Bazaar in Istanbul. It's one of the largest and oldest covered markets in the world, with 61 covered streets and over 4,000 shops in a total area of 30,700 meters. We went dirt biking too. It was pretty chilly but so much fun. I wasn't old enough to go on one by myself so I had to go on a dirt bike with my dad. But the sunset was amazing. They timed it perfectly, so when we got to the top of a big hill we could see the sunset and stop to take pictures. Speaking of sunsets we had to wake up really early one morning to go on a hot air balloon so when we got in the air we could see the sunrise. There is so much more I could talk about but this is what I did in turkey.

On Christmas 2023 one of my favourite gifts I got was a trip to Disney World in Orlando, Flordia. I went in January 2024 with my whole family. One of my favourite parks was Epcot. I went on all the rides but my favourite and by far the best ride at Disney World was Guardians of the Galaxy. It was one of the best experiences that I've ever had last year. In Magic Kingdom, I watched the fireworks at night and I loved riding the seven dwarfs ride. In Hollywood Studios, I watched this night show, Fantasmic and I rode the Tower of Terror which is by far my second favourite ride. I also tried Dole Whips and OMG those are so good. If you ever go to Disney World you should go! The last park I went to was Animal Kingdom. My favourite ride I went on was Expedition Everest. I went on this ride 3 times and I LOVE IT! I went for 5 days and stayed at this animation hotel that was Nemo theme. This is all I did in Disney World!
