Spring Break 20 10

I say SPRING you say BREAK

SPRING

SPRING

BREAK

I think spring break is one of my favorite breaks during the year, because it is finally getting warm outside after a long winter, and we haven’t had a long break since Christmas. This year for the break we had some friends come in town from Atlanta. They are the nicest family, and I am so glad that they are staying in our neighborhood. In fact, they are so close if I whisper they can hear us.

In my last post I mentioned applying for two jobs, and it turns out that I got them. That’s right I got them both. It turns out they are owned by the same woman, and I got the job in the T-shirt store, but I am going to switch off in between the T-shirt store, and the beach and surf store. One of my best friends also got the job with me, so I am very excited. And everyone is just so nice! I got very lucky.

Golf tryouts are not this coming Tuesday, but the next. I found out that only 6 of the 13 girls trying out will make the team. I guess it will be nice for those who make the team, because they will get extra attention, but for those who haven’t been practicing *cough me cough. * I guess I am just going to have to practice over spring break J.

I stil haven’t found a camera, so, once again, if you have ANY suggestions let me know. I was thinking about getting the Canon Rebel XSi, but just randomly (after we visted Best Buy, and looked online for cameras) my mom remembered that she still had some lenses from a Nikon camera, so I think that I am going to have to look at Nikons!

Currently I am reading "Age Is Just A Number" by Dara Torres, and it is an AWESOME book! Definitely try it out if you are looking for some inspiring non-fiction!!

Happy Easter/ Passover ya’ll!

Back from Break

I have now officially gotten back into the groove of school… and swimming!  But as you can tell from my pictures... I’m still thinking about spring break from last week.

Me on a YOLO - fun!!

littlebro on a YOLO! I'm way better than him.


 me and littlebro in the air.  yes, this is really us!


At least this week at school was full of fun school excitement. I got a bad grade on my test, I had a golf practice, a tennis practice, swim practice, and this weekend a swim meet!

Well, about the bad grade…I am in 8th grade math, and I am in 7th grade. Anyway, I was out of town for the 70.3 NOLA Half Iron Man, and in math it is hard when you get behind in math, and of course I did! So I am not going to tell you what I got on my test, but I will tell you that we had to make a poster or a PowerPoint , and I chose a poster, and my little project was on forest fires in the Amazon Rainforest (this was in math for Earth Day), and I made a 100 on it… WOO HOOO!!

 On to golf practice!

 Everyone knows that when you play golf you have to be quiet right!? Well, I won’t mention names, but there are a few people who are on the golf team who like to talk…loudly! Even though I like to talk I don’t get in trouble during golf! So one of the girls was there early, and she was doing her homework outside, and she sat down, and being In Florida there are lots of frogs, sat on a frog! She screamed soooooooo loud, and on the golf course too!!!!

 Ok about tennis, I am #1 girl on the team, and we have two coaches. So for the last practice the coaches picked teams, and we had a little competition. I had to play against the best guy on the team, let me tell you, that kid is so so so good it is scary! Well we played a pro match. Meaning you go to 8 games instead of 6! I was very proud of my self, because I only lost 6-8!

 And the swim meet! I am in the middle of it so I will post more tomorrow. 

 Thanks for stopping by!
