Ahhhhh....Summer.

Yes, I know, it's been a while. But I've been crazy busy with school! lol But I am so glad it's over, which is the reason for this post..

Ahh...summer.The time every student looks forward to. Parties, Beaches, Fun. Finally, I am free from school. Time to run barefoot in the sand and spend every single minute of my free time at the beach.

Although I will miss the drama of school, and seeing my friends everyday. Oh well.

I got to go back to my old school the other day, because my old principle is retiring. It was fun to see everybody again, all the teachers I got to know. It was cool.

Time to get back to vacation! lol

Happy Easter!

Happy (early) Easter!
I know I will be crazy busy tomorrow, so I wish everyone a happy Easter!

I know--I haven't blogged in like forever. So here is a condensed version of the last three months:
January: After Christmas, my parents missed Florida even more. We all were getting sick of the freezing weather in California, and so my mom started looking for teaching jobs anywhere in Florida. There was one position back in Port St. Lucie, where we were last year. The position was 7th grade reading at Lincoln Park Academy, a 6-12 school in Ft. Pierce. After a phone interview, my mom was accepted for the job. She was to start in the next week and a half, the last week of January. This meant we would have to drive back in like 4 days, but unfortunately, my dad's assignment in California didn't end until the end of mid-February. So my brother, my mom and I had to drive to Florida ahead of my dad. My mom started, and loves being back in the classroom.

February: I applied to Lincoln Park Academy for their IB program. I was told I had a very slim chance of getting in, especially at the beginning of second semester. After showing the school my grades from last year, they said I was exactly the type of student they were looking for. So on February 2nd, I started public High School. It is so much fun! Alexander started back in public school also. He is attending an awesome elementary school--Floresta Elementary. He is making friends and loving it!

March: My dad drove back from California, making it back in time for Alexander's birthday on March 4th. My dad started a 3-month travel job in Orlando, driving there and staying for 3 or 4 nights to work, and then drives back to our house here in PSL and is off in between. Being back in Florida is tons of fun, being able to go to the beach, see palm trees everywhere, watching the beautiful sunrises and sunsets, and everything Florida has to give.

side note: I am so sorry to everyone in San Antonio that I was not able to stop on our way over! We drove through during the night, and I was disappointed I wasn't able to visit, due to our hurrying to get to Florida in order for my mom to start her job. It would have been perfect if we had enough time and had gone through on a Sunday so we would have been able to go to one more church service at St. Andrew!

so... now we are just hanging out over spring break....after going to the beach today, my mom and brother burned, and I just 'toasted'... my mom keeps telling me she is jealous of me, inheriting my dad's gene of being able to tan fast and not burn! lol I only burn when we spend the day out snorkeling, which we are planning to do this week, so hopefully I will have pics in the next week or so!
