Farewell party and Live Show

 The first thing we had to do this morning after we got up and had breakfast was pack and clean the house. YUCK! to the packing. I don’t want to leave 5055 Cordova Bay Road, but I really want to go to Vancouver and see and do even more things. I hope I get to come back here one day. After all this was done, we did some skits and recorded them, so that we could use them in some of our videos. Then we had think about what we wanted to say in our live chat with our school. Each of us had to choose an idea and talk about it. Mimi made us tell her our ideas, so she knew what we were going to say.

Then, our farewell party started. I actually wasn’t very excited about it all, because just like packing, it is a reminder that tomorrow we have to leave Victoria, so sad…but a new journey will begin. But, I never want to forget one moment of my time here. It has been wonderful – each minute of it. I will treasure it forever!

The live chat with our school took place right in the middle of our party. We had to wait forever, and our food was getting cold. Luckily Eric was very good at talking to all our guests and keeping them entertained, so they didn’t go home.  But our live show had our who school watching and we were excited to see them, especially since Miss Leung showed us everyone on our screen. We could see our friends, our teacher, the Principal, Miss Yung, Professor Tam – the whole school! I was so impressed. I was very nervous but this was also a good experience! And then afterwards, Miss Leung told us that no one could hear a word we said, so I worried for nothing!

After this, our farewell party really got going and we had such a great time playing and having fun with friends. Danny, Eric’s youngest son, and his girlfriend came with their guitars. They are both great singers, and Danny is an incredible guitar player. I was honoured to play with him. We stayed up quite late, because we were all packed and ready to leave in the morning. I was very thoughtful of Mimi to have us pack and clean in the morning, so we could really enjoy the evening.
