Today I went to Fort Langley, the place where the province of British Columbia all started. It was like a mini town. It had almost everything. It had a farm and garden, blacksmith shop, trading sections, council house, shelter, defensive equipments, storage, cafe and kitchen. The people who originally lived there were employees of the Hudson Bay Company (HBC). The employees married the local aboriginal women and made better relationships with the aboriginals. In 1858 the people in Fort Langley found gold in the Fraser river, but they were afraid of letting the Americans to know or else they would come and take the gold. They soon created the colony of British Columbia to stop the Americans from coming. In 1866, British Columbia became part of Canada. Everything that we see in BC right now, started from that little area where it does not even add up to 1km square.

Oh my freaking god. I cannot even open my eyes all the way. I am killing myself in the past few days by draining my energy. It is not fun. I do not choose to do that but I cannot. ACR takes away all my stamina of the day. The next day, I have not gained my stamina back and yet I have to go shopping and to art classes. I have to go to school today and I have drained most of my stamina again. I fall asleep right when I lay down on my bed. I am very tired. After this, I am going to take a shower and sleep immediately. It is very tiring. Also, I apologize for not typing the weekly essay. It is just stupid. Sometimes, I just hate making deals with my cousin. He never lets me stop. I am not making another deal about studying again. I mean never. Even if he gives me a phone, or a laptop. No matter what, I will NOT make deals with him anymore. The next essay will be posted on Saturday. I can guarantee that the next one will be up by Saturday. Good night.

My subsitute math teacher did not do much today. Just gave out homework assignments and walked around to make sure that everybody was on the right track. He joked with people while trying to keep them on track. He allowed us to listen to music while working, which did increase the quality of our work. We did not talk much, and we were more focused than before. We did not talk to our neighbours or friends much. It was a great way to keep us on track while not boring our mind out. (Subsitute: 10/10)

Sorry about last night. I forgot to post my blog because I went outside to practice basketball. My apologies. It was not bad for two hours of jump shots. I had worked on my jump shots. I could now get 1 or 2 more shots in than before. I wanted to get better shots and higher shooting percentage. It was one of my goals. My shooting gotten better everyday, but still not enough. I needed more. I needed a higher percentage. I needed more practice. I bit my tongue two days ago, but it still hurt. I got this bump in the tip of it, and it felt odd. It hurt, if I bit it. I have nothing left to say, and this is too boring. At least for today's. Good night. Least common multiple excersise
