Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving this year was spent in San Clemente. My parents came down and my mom had made Thanksgiving dinner before she left and transported it all the way down. It was one of the weirdest Thanksgivings I have ever had, but it was also one of the best. I got to be with people I loved, eat yummy food, and spent some time out of downtown LA. 

We had McDonald's for our Thanksgiving Lunch then took a walk down to the beach. We then had our Thanksgiving dinner all together in the hotel room.

Aloha Day 6

Day 5 of Hawaii consisted of me becoming very sick, with Norwalk Virus...not food poisoning apparetly! So no pictures of that I'm sorry to report. Moving right along into Day 6. Our final day in Hawaii.

We went on a boating excursion called Fairwinds. And I got to Snuba Dive!! It was so cool. It was just like scuba diving except you don't have to be certified. I kept wanting to go down further but you are attached to this rope type thing so you couldn't go all the way down, and I accidentally hit the coral a few times...hope I didn't kill it.

After that my dad and I were in the water and a huge heard of Dolphins came where our boat was. I'm not kidding there was probably like 30 dolphins ( and there were babies too!). They were swimming under us and all around us. They were so close I could touch them, but I was a bit nervous to. We were probably out there for 30 minuets just watching them and being around them. It was my favorite memory from Hawaii and one I will cherish forever.
See that orange drink? It's pedialyte. I was trying to rehydrate after my illness issue and apparently that is also something people use for a hangover? Who knew and everyone (including the cute crew men) thought I was hungover.  The only Mormon on the boat and I was accused of having a hangover. Nice.

We finished off our final night having appetizers down at the hotel close to us. They played me and my moms song upon request by my dad. It's that Hawaiian somewhere over the rainbow song. I used to think it was so lame and cheesy, but now some of my very major family moments have had that as the background music. 


And the next day we headed back to the mainland, and although this picture says different I was happy to go back.

Oregon

This last weekend I went to Oregon to celebrate my mom's birthday, my brother's birthday, AND mother's day. I'm a busy lady. I had to do all that while trying to find room for homework. But it was worth it.

The first night we all went to Bingo...I didn't win a thing, nor did anyone else in my crew.

Next day I got to see my BFF, who I haven't seen since Christmas.

I am one tired girl but the weeks just keep coming. School is gettin cray, but I only have about 4ish more weeks or maybe 5. Could be 6...I didn't even look at a calendar. BUT I know I don't have that many weeks left! Then I get, pretty much, a month off!
