5th day! Break is soon drawing a close, how sad. I've had such a a relaxing and enjoyable break, I never want it to end. Well, today I stayed in after there was such a big storm that brought rain! So due to the rain, it result to inside activities; which meant to get crafty! I made a stand and a chalkboard, do-it-yourself style and it turned out quite swell!

Track practice was canceled but I was kinda looking forward to practice in the rain, but it was okay. I ended up getting a shot from the doctors which left a stinging pain, I honestly hate shots! Then, I went to get tea and shopping which made up for it all. It was a pleasant Friday!

Day 4! I couldnt hardly believe that break is going by so quickly! I spent the day just finishing the rest of my homework, cleaning up my room, and study extra for WHAP. I also just attended track practice where the workout was light, which consisted of only a 50 minutes run and a 400. I always find it really enjoying just to lay on the track field and look up at the sky with perfect weather.

Speaking of perfect weather, I checked the weather today and it is going to be blazing hot on Thursday when we have our very last home meet. Oh boy, I can barely run in hot weather and it makes me sweat a ton more. But anyways, today was a really enjoyable day.

Day three!! I finally have real plans and people who want to be my friends and hangout with me! Yeah, so I came over to my friend Hira's house and we hung out, ate, talked, and she did my nails! It was so chill and fun, I spent a good 9 hours over at her house.

I got to skip track practice for day which was such a good feeling to get a break. After coming home, I went out to dinner with my family at Olive Garden; and called it a day. As a recap, it was eventful and was relaxing at the same time.

Day 2 of Spring Break! Today was just like yesterday, calm and slow! I actually did homework today and got a lot of it completed! I also caught up on Pretty Little Liars and re watched some chick flicks with my siblings. And, before I knew it I had track practice, it felt the day went by slowly but quickly at the same time.

Track Practice was really intense, we did 6 mile repeats for time with little recovery. It was crazy and tiring but it will be sure worth it. After practice, my dad took me out to eat In N' Out, where I gained all the calories back, oh darn. But overall, today was very relaxing and efficient.

First official day of spring break! I've waited for Spring Break to come around for a while now and now it's here I look forward to relaxing and catching up on all of my sleep. But as a recap, I literally just stood around, got some chores done, went to track practice, and called it a day.

I'm thankful to have a Monday without stressing about getting homework done and having the pressure of school. It was an awesome feeling to have and something I won't be able to experience until Summer break comes around. And surprisingly, I did not even touch my backpack today and did no homework whatsoever.

Tutoring Experience!

Today, our class had the pleasure to visit Ms. Hine's class and try her student's cinnamon buns. My experience was very delightful and eye opening! I was faced with a different environment that went on in my school that I wasn't very familiar with. I got to see how everyone in the class worked and it was something I enjoyed observing. The students were very sweet and they had there own personalities. In the time we had with them, they treated us very nicely and made us feel apart of the class! This experience really opened my eyes to the level of these special students. I overall enjoyed this experience and I would love to make a trip back!
