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 !

I hope everyone had a fantastic break ! I certainly did, although I observed the whole week, the teacher did not want me to do full days so I had half of the day to myself. I love the teacher I observe she is so nice. The week we had off was so nice and hot ! I went to the Ramapo park with my cousin and our dogs and also took a quick ride down the shore to my house. On St. Patrick's Day I went to the city with my boyfriend and our friends which was ALOT of fun. We left at 9 in the morning and stayed to about 3:30pm. We live about 20 minutes from the city but since it was crazy to drive in, we look the train which was not that bad. When we got there, there was people everywhere singing and cheering, it was so much fun! It was my first time at the parade which was definitely an experience !

Hope everyone had a good weekend! Monday was my first day of field observations, and I love every second of it. I am observing at Washington School in Lyndhurst; where I live.  The teacher I am observing is really nice and is letting me interact with the class. This is a 2nd grade class and their are 21 children. It is so funny when the kids are just sitting there staring at you for like 5 minutes and when I leave some students are like " I wish you never had to leave" and " I'm going to miss you " even though they know I will be back again that same week. Next week is break and although I will be observing I am pretty excited to be off from school, homework and exams; hoping this week goes by fast !! Does anyone have any fun plans for Spring Break ?
