Hey guys, what's going on? I am just hanging out here at home today. I have no plans other than driving with my driving instructor today at 3:00pm. Actually, those are my only plans for the entire weekend. Wow, that's a little sad. The only other things I have to accomplish this weekend is finishing the other half of my Geometry homework and a worksheet for U.S. Studies. Good thing I went to the library the other day and picked up some books or else I don't know what I would do with myself. Today is a good day to read. It's been all cold an windy these past two days after being like 70 and sunny every day this week. It makes me sad. But, before it got nasty yesterday I did go swimming in the lake for the first time this year! It was SUPER cold, but it was worth it. I had a lot of fun with my sister just playing in the water. After that my other sister came over for a while with her son and we went to go get ice cream while he was napping. Overall, I'd say yesterday was pretty good.
The two books I got from the library are "Life Of Pi" and "Beatrice and Virgil" by Yann Martel. I am in the middle of "Life Of Pi" right now and it's pretty good. I'll probably have to read it again just to grip the story better because right now, I'm a little confused by it. It's about an Indian boy who gets shipwrecked and spends 277 days on a lifeboat with a Bengal tiger, a hyena and a zebra and then lands on the coast of Mexico. I also picked up a couple informational books about Costa Rica to further my knowledge of the places I'll be going soon. I am so excited for this trip. Twelve whole days with a good group of people in a place I have never been before. The best part is that I'll be spending them with the lovely Mariama by my side. Ohh the stories I will be coming home with.
I have finally cracked. I now have Lady Gaga on my iPod. I thought I would be able to resist but I guess not. I just can't not party to Telephone and Bad Romance. Also, if you haven't noticed, I sort of quit following American Idol. It's just that this season has a pretty clear winner and I don't really feel like documenting it on here anymore.
Owen and I have made no progress on our new story whatsoever. The only thing we know for sure is that it's going to be a love story.Hopefully, it won't be long before we get rolling with ideas. Write Soon!
