Announcing the return of... ileana! Had a blast this past week. There were so many places to eat from! And I ate so much. Our hotel was nice too. I reserved this nice jacuzzi suite. My rents used the king bed while moi and sis slept on the pull out couch. While there, I got to see my some of my relatives and my mom got to see some of her friends. ( Read more... )

So, I guess I'll be off tomorrow for vacation. I'll be back the 21st. I'm excited! There'll be so many people for me to meet! My sister, on the other hand, isn't looking forward to that part. My mom's gonna see her best friend for the first time in 10+ years. I guess I'll get a chance to talk to her daughters too, whom I've never met before. We ( Read more... )

Being home alone this past week has cultivated many odd theories. I finally noticed my liking for stinky foods. For example, Mini Babybel Cheese. It's this stuff from France that's wrapped in red wax and red clear plastic. It's so good! My sister can't stand the smell or taste of it but I think it's heavenly. It's an indescribable experience.

Well, that camp thing is over. It felt great to sleep in until... 8 am. Yeah, I guess I'm not much of a sleeping in person, but it's still better than waking up at 6:45 every morning. No complaints, because I feel like a really different person now. My classmates' brains have been on hibernate all summer, while mine was up and running. In fact, it ( Read more... )

wow, this camp is almost over! We did community service on Monday. I helped clean/maintain the houses of two elderly people. The first house I went to, she wanted me to clear some brush. Turns out that I didn't know what brush was! ^^;; It was an awesome day, we even got treated to the movies. I chose Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. It was such ( Read more... )

This is actually backdated... on July 14, we went to this college for a reunion and dance. It's the second dance I've ever been to! The first was at sixth grade 'graduation' so it wasn't really eventful. But this dance, I GROOVED! That's right, lil Ileana rocked the dance floor and shaked her body! It's the first time I've danced at a real dance! ( Read more... )

Wow... this has been one hectic month so far. I'm currently at the college computer lab... why am I here on summer vacation? because I'm enrolled in this wonderful program that will prepare me for college and give me a heads start for the rest of high school! Sounds boring, but it's a blast.

Forgot to mention that I have received my report card. Didn't do so well on finals... got C's in French and Math. :`( And I got a B+ on the english exam. Thank goodness that there were 40 other decent looking numbers on the page to look at. Class ranking wise, I am number 6 out of about 350 students. Not bad. I was really surprised that it was a ( Read more... )
