Oh my... Did something happen at school on Halloween? Reading everyone's journal, it seems something big occurred. I was out trick-or-treating most of the night, so I wasn't on campus. I got so much candy I don't know what to do with it all! But then I came back and heard stories of... what is it... zombies or something? I'm not quite sure. No one ( Read more... )

The monarchs were certainly a sight to see! How lovely, to see nature in full swing like that. It's reinvigorating! Definitely the sort of thing needed just as the leaves are starting to fall and this year's flowers are starting to die. I'm looking forward for when they make their return trip! I'm sure it'll be just as exciting and beautiful ( Read more... )

The changing colors of the leaves are so pretty! I simply love watching them fall to the ground. Even though the bare trees that are left afterward are a sad sight to see, the falling leaves are just so mesmerizing. It's like brightly colored rain. My favorite part is when the leaves are falling during the sunset. When the whole sky is shades of ( Read more... )

I've been so busy lately that I've forgotten to update my journal! How silly of me. I've been spending most of my free time in the student kitchen. Cooking class is really turning into one of my favorite classes. And thanks to the recipe book that dad sent me, I'm trying my best to be a better cook. I hope that during the next vacation, I can ( Read more... )

It seems everyone has gone back to being their normal ages. That's both a relief and somewhat of a disappointment. Being an adult was an interesting experience. I'm glad I got to go through it once before the real deal. I suppose it gave me something to look forward to. But I'm glad I still have some time before that. There's so much I still want ( Read more... )

Dear me, I seem to have grown up. However, it seems this has happened to others as well. And there are some that became younger too? Hm, how odd. I can't say I wasn't shocked when I woke up and found myself like this. But I must admit, this is somewhat exciting. I always wondered what it would be like to be an adult. And now I have my chance to ( Read more... )

The carnival was so much fun! So many rides and treats... it was almost too much. When I wrote to my parents about it, mom was really jealous. The last time we went to a carnival as a family was a couple of years ago. I'm sure she missed all the excitement. Dad, on the other hand, simply worried about me eating too much junk food. Which... I sort ( Read more... )

I can't believe Father's Day is already here! It took me a while to come up with a great gift for my dad. Finally I decided to make him something myself. What better way to show him that I care and appreciate him? So I made him some cookies from a recipe in the cook book he got me. I hope he likes them! And thanks to Louie's cooking class, I've ( Read more... )

I had so much fun on the cruise! It was great to see everyone having fun in the sun. Swimming in the pool, relaxing on the deck, it was all so amazing! I definitely want to go on another cruise! Maybe I should try to convince my parents too. Hee hee, a family vacation sounds great. Besides, after all the work my parents do at the pre-school, they ( Read more... )

A very happy Mother's Day to all those mothers at the school. And even to those not at the school! I hope everyone has at least called or written a letter to their mothers for today. I know I certainly have! Mom was so thrilled to hear from me. I feel a little guilty for not being there with her. One of the best Mother's Days was a few years ago, ( Read more... )
