This is our last class ! We are in the second day of finals and I can not wait for them to be over. I have taken two and have two more on Thursday. Tomorrow I have a day off so I will be using it to study. Next week I start my summer classes, but they seem like they will go by fast because it ends on June 25th I believe. Well I hope everyone does great on the rest of their finals .. GOOD LUCK !!

Last day of classes !! I have two more classes to go and can not wait until this day is over ! I did my whole history paper yesterday and it took me 8 hours, I was about to go crazy but once it was done I was happy. I have a couple of things left to do for this class, so I am going to finish them now so I do not have them to do over the weekend !

   The semester is finally winding down to the end, which is pretty exciting but I still have so much to do like papers, projects and studying !! This past weekend I had my nieces communion which was great. Her whole class of 20 made communion which made it a little long but in the end wasn't too bad. After the church the party was at a a place called Micheal's ; I believe they had over 50 people who attended. The food was great ! they also had a caricature and magician. I was so exited to be able to do a caricature drawing because I have been dying to do one for so long, so I made my boyfriend one do one with me in front of all the guests ; I think he was a little embarrassed but it came out cute!! Like I said this week is crunch time so tomorrow i am locking myself in my room all day and finished a research paper that is due on Thursday , talk about last minute !

So I took my Praxis and it actually wasn't as bad as I thought. There was a huge line when I arrived at the school so everyone was outside freezing. When they let us in we went to our assigned rooms and put us at desks, of course out of all the desks in the room; I got assigned the little tiny one which was so difficult to test on. I also forgot to mention that last week was my last week of observations and I was pretty sad about it because I'm going to miss the kids in the class, they were so cute. Hopefully I can go back there next semester for my observations!  Last night my 1 year old dog ate a whole bag of grapes , which are very toxic for dogs ! I was so nervous and had my mom call the vet, they said we had to make her throw them up and to give her 2 tablespoons of peroxide .. gross. But it worked and this morning my parents took her to the vet to make sure all was OK and they said she was fine. I was so nervous because i was reading how too many grapes can even kill them.. So if you have a dog don't feed them grapes !! This weekend is my nieces communion, her dress is so pretty. her favorite part about the day is her shoes , because they have a little heal on them, too funny. I will upload a picture of her in her dress next Tuesday for you all to see :)

This week went by very fast to me ! I had a lot of work due this week and not enough time to do it ! This weekend I am taking the Praxis, and I am very nervous. this is my first time taking it so I am not sure what to expect. I will fill you in next week about how it went. the semester is almost over which means it is time to cram with all last minute assignments ! I am taking a summer course though on Monday and Wednesday nights which I'm kinda not that excited about but summer classes usually go by pretty fast. I have class until 7 tonight , so after that I am definitely going home and relaxing.

    My vacation is over unfortunately :( I had a great time but it feels like the 10 days went by way to fast. The flight was not bad at all, It honestly took me about 10 minutes to check in and go through security; but that also stunk because I had to wait about 3 hours to board my plane. When I got there my brother picked me up in the jeep he rented for the day and took me back to the hotel. My family was so happy to see me; my nieces and nephews jumped on me screaming how happy they were.. which made me smile. The whole week was great; of course we ate a lot and I layed out on the beach like it was my job. We went out a couple nights after dinner but we were all so tired at around 9:00 from a long day in the sun we all just wanted to sleep. The day we left was Easter Sunday .. My mom set up an Easter egg hunt on the beach for the kids and put out baskets for them.
    Watching them run down on the beach in the morning was probably one of the highlights of this trip. During the week I found out that a 7th grader at the school I am observing at had passed away. Although I am in the 2nd grade there I really did now know the girl well but do remember seeing her around the hall. It is a very sad story about how she passed away and I feel bad for her family. The school is now having graving counselors come in and speak with students who are having a hard time. On a brighter note today I am going to see Titanic 3D which I had been dying to see since I got back. Titanic is my favorite movie and I probably have watched it about 20plus times. So exited to see how it will be in 3D so I will fill you in next week about what I thought about it.

Hi everyone ! I cant believe the change in weather this week from last, its insane. I was freezing today! Let's see .. well my family left this past Sunday for Aruba, all 12 of them. I am leaving this Friday and I can not wait to leave. I hate being alone because I get so nervous if anything happens because my family is thousands of miles away. Ive been so lonely this week; just myself and my dog hanging out and doing homework. Its also so difficult texting and calling back and fourth between myself and my mom since usually does not go through or arrives hours later. On Friday my best friend was suppose to come with me like every year, but she is unable to go and just told me two days ago which brought down my excitement a lot. Now I have to fly by myself and I am so nervous that I am going to get lost.. I hope I survive :| I figure I should just make the best out of it and have fun with my family, I'm sure my nieces and nephews will keep me company. When I return I will make sure to update about my vacation and add some pictures !
