I'm so flippen' excited. It is just 5 more days until Thursday! What is Thursday (you are probably asking yourself)? I have an answer. Thursday is the day that my girlfriend from MA flies in for prom! Sadly, I am being cajoled into going to school on Friday by my mother because she is being wicked annoying. But, I'm still really excited for her to come down and for prom.
So my past week has been same old, same old. The main is that I need to get my AP Chemistry grade up because right now I have a B for this term and I really want to do well in the class so I need to start working way harder so I can get that A.
Also this week my partner that I rapped with and I decided to get our gift certificate to Cheddar's so at some point we will have to redeem that.
Today I went to Welborn's Flowers to get flowers for prom and I really didn't realize how expensive flowers are. To get my girlfriend a bouquet and to get a flower pin thing for myself cost me around $65. And since I am in the process of searching for a job, other than cutting my parents grass for $15, $65 is a rediculous amount of money.

Another Week
So this week was reletively simple, seeing as not a lot happened. I had a huge chemistry test which I am pretty sure I did well on. Also this week I presented my Canterbury Tales Project. I was the knight so for my visual aid I made a knight out of aluminum foil.
Additionally my mom was in Nebraska visiting her family there. So, my dad and I went out to eat just about every night! One night we went to Ninki and then another night we ate some fried chicken.
Then on Sunday a friend of mine and I made a video presentation of us rapping. This presentation got us a free meal from out teacher. So now we need to figure out where we are going to get a gift certifigate to.

Viva Mexico!!!
So over Spring Break I went to Cancun, Mexico. This trip was for my grandparents' 50th wedding anniversary.
I got to leave school a day early so my break started on Wednesday. Thursday morning my mom, my dad, and I got up at 2 AM to drive to Nashville to catch our 5 AM flight to Atlanta and then on to Cancun. We arrived in Cancun a couple hours before the rest of our group which consisted of my brother, my two cousins, my aunt, my uncle, and my grandparents so we got in a taxi and took a one hour drive to the all-inclusive where we were staying. When we got there it was amazing. Immediately we went out and sat on the beach and waited for the rest of my family to arrive.
Everyday I got up around 10 or 11 and went and ate at the breakfast buffet. Then I went out and sat on the beach. My days there were filled with drinking beverages, snorkeling, kayaking, and playing beach volleyball. Unfortunately, I got a nasty sunburn one of the days so I just left a t-shirt on the rest of the week so the burn would not get too bad. One of the days my whole family went to another beach by taxi. This beach we went to is famous for its residential juvinile sea-turtle population. I was so exciting getting to swim with sea-turtles. Also while snorkeling there we saw a 5 foot baracuda that was terrifying huge.
Our nights were filled with hanging out at the Sports Bar, going around to shops, and going to the different restaurants on the resort. Our favorite restaurant had to be the Japanese Hibachi Restaurant.
The flight home was a bit more rocky. We were stuck in Atlanta for the night and had to sleep in the airport because of a big thunder storm in Nashville. So we got a very bad night of sleep but, luckily we were able to catch a flight at 8 the next morning and we were home by noon.
Overall it was a magnificent trip.
