Life Is Like...

Life is like candy.
Some times you get the really sweet candy.
Some times you get the sour.
Or even the really ultra sour.

Living is easy.... Life is hard.

There are lessons every where you go.

Life is like school.
Some times there are easy subjects.
Some times there are hard subjects.
Some times there are subjects you don't understand.
Some times there are subjects you have no idea about.
You get tested on the lesion you learned.

You learn some thing new every day.

It takes the strong to survive it all.

My Boston Trip

I left on April, 6th, Wednesday to Boston and came back April, 8th, Friday late at night.

April, 6th.
I went to school and after role call in home base all the people going to Boston including me, went to the auditorium. We got into are groups. My chaperon checked my carry on bag. Then we went and got our luggage out of room 101. My suitcase was heavy, luckily I had wheels!!! There were 2 buses, I was on bus 2. There is a bathroom in the back of the bus that doesn't flush! So I knew to sit in the front!!!

Me and my 3 friends that I know, had the same chaperon and we were sharing the room together. So me and Cat sat together and K sat in front of us; turned around talking to us the whole time. While we were riding out there on the highway we had to stop in Albany because bus 1 had no WiFi. We got stuck in the most ghetto part of Albany.

We were all terrified we were going to get shot!!! Well we were fine. The whole way all I did was I.M. Nana. We had to buy are own lunch at a rest stop. I got a Chicken B.L.T. meal with a Carmel Frappe. It was good but not worth $10.95!! A cheeseburger was $3.99, a double cheeseburger was $4.99!!! We got to the hotel at 6 ish o'clock. We decided to give K a bed to herself and me and Cat would share a bed. We got a great view. It was 7:30 when our chaperon came and got us to eat pizza and have pop. After we ate we went swimming. We went from Jacuzzi to the pool to the Jacuzzi to the pool to the Jacuzzi and it was so hot we decided to go up to the room. K took a shower first then Cat then I. Finally when are room got quiet someone would break the silence by laughing or start singing "Sexual Felling!!!!" It was so funny!!!
s
April, 7th.
In the morning I got up at 5:15 and made coffee in the room. Yesterday K told me and Cat to hit her to wake her up or push her off the bed. At 5:30 Cat woke up by her alarm. Then we tried to get K up. She was up side down!!! She is a major toss and turner. Thank God we gave her, her own bed. I flat-ironed my hair, got dressed in my "Adventure Club" shirt and did my make up. I always have my phone on vibrate because of my baby brother. Well on my trip I took my phone off vibrate and Ryan's laugh is my ring tone. So when my chaperon called me I wanted to cry!! I missed my Ryan so much!!!

She said I was good because I got every one around before she was even out of bed!! At 7:30 we had breakfast. It was a buffet. They only had omelets with cheese in the middle. I don't like cheese so I scraped out the cheese and put some bacon in it and poured ketchup in it, it was so good!! I had orange juice to drink and a blueberry muffin. We were down there a few minutes late. The teachers said 7:30 but some people came at 7:00.

After we ate we had to go to the bus and get on. We had to bring are carry on. In are carry on it was only what we needed for the day. Like in mine, I didn't need my tooth brush, flat iron, make up and my blanket.

The first thing we did was Fenway Park. I didn't like it. In my opinion it was too thin and steep and really high up. It felt like I was hugging the wall. We heard from are tour guide. I'm not a real sport person. I don't like certain baseball teams, or even into baseball. But it was interesting to hear about when I wasn't hugging the wall.

The second thing we did was ride on the duck tours. It's a car that rides on the street and you can drive into the water an the car turns into a boat on the water!!! We got the most craziest driver ever, I LOVED HIM!!!! All the tours get to stop in the middle of traffic to tell about all the history! We go to see so many sight's. Every time he said "We are duck tours..." we had to say "Quack, quack". We passed other people in the tours that's also on the trip, their duck tour was full. Are duck tour only had half the amount. So when we had to say "Quack, quack" we were so much louder. Then when we came up to the water. I got nervous, but I wanted to go into the water. He said before we hit the water "Now, lets hope we float.". Everyone looked at each other. After we hit the water and we floated he said "By the way, never take any thing I say seriously.". He let us drive the car/boat in the water.

The third thing we did was have lunch at the Aquarium. I had chicken nuggets, fries, a brownie, and pop. We only ate at the Aquarium. After we were done we left the Aquarium and went to the I-Max theater. We watched Under the Sea. I-max is all 3-D. We had wear these cool glasses. Once and a while they blanked out in only one eye. At first I thought it was only me until Cat said it happened to her too. Some people fell asleep but me and K kept reaching out to touch the fishes. Each time one fish ate another I would smack it and say "Bad Fishy!!". It was so col I liked it and didn't fall asleep.

The fourth thing we did was go to the Aquarium. It was one big tank in the middle with a circular stair case around it with little windows. It had 4 floors and on each floor there was different things. I went no were near the Reptile area. All Cat, K, me and the chaperon did was run up the stairs chasing after the sea turtle and shark. The penguin's where all so cute. We went to the gift shop there. I got Ryan a little baby penguin stuffed animal, Nana and Papa #1 Grandma and #1 Grandma which latter I found out they were both Grandpa. Then I got Zack 2 animal erasers. I got a pen.

We finished early at the Aquarium. So the teacher's said were going to walk to dinner.

The fifth thing we did was walk to the quince market and north market. We got there 5ish o'clock. We all got $15 to buy dinner. I had Japanese food. It was like barbecue chicken and grilled shrimp with onions with a Coke. IT WAS SO GOOD!!! We had to eat outside because there was no room in the quince market. We walked all up and down. It was Cat, K, and I all stayed together. It was a nice sunny day with a breeze. You had to watch where you entered and exited. Some of the stores had an up stairs. So you would be above another store then rap around to anther and you would go out like 3 stores back from the one you went into in. K bought like 5 billion pairs of sun glasses (she only bought 3 but we pick on her). It was a lot of fun!!!!

The sixth thing we did was walk over and loom at the Holocaust towers. It was 3 long tall towers that was like a triangle shape with an opening for you to walk in. There was like steam that floated up into the inside towers to show the serial number of all the people in the Holocaust. It was interesting but really sad. We go there late. It was one of them things.. oh were here so let's check it out.

April, 8th.
The first thing we did was eat again in the morning, it was the same thing.

Second we had to load all or our luggage into the bus. But had to take our carry on bags with us to another bus. That bus was taking us to our tour guide.

When we got to the tour guide it was a lot of fun. We heard about the bloody massacre. There was no "The British is coming!" because every one was British at the time. The only thing you would hear was "The red coats are coming!" Well at the time all the officers could come in and ask you if you paid for that. Well This teen age boy walked up to an officer and asked of he bought the doughnut he was eating. The officers could shoot any one so he took the back of his gun and hit him with it. Other people saw this and they got rocks and snow balls and shot it at the officer. More officers came thinking it would calm down the situation. It didn't. More and more people came there was at least a million people. One officer got hint in the head and fell, doesn't know on purpose or on accident, the gun went off. When one gun goes off all guns go off. When the guns stopped going off it left 5 people died. And that was called the bloody massacre. We ended the tour at that.

We walked to the cruse for lunch.

When we got to the cruse we got to eat. It was a big banquet. They had chicken fingers, mac and cheese, apples, and a lot more!!!

Me and my friends danced and danced. We did a conga line out to the front of the boat. I stopped to talk to my chaperon, she said she was looking for dolphins. I asked her if there where sharks, when she told me yes we where in the ocean. I never went back out until we left the boat. At one point the whole boat tipped and the drinks where visible tilted and the water was really close to the window. Everyone threw themselves to the floor screaming "Titanic". It was so funny. It was so much fun on the boat. My legs hurt after all that dancing.

On the way home we stopped at a high way rest stop for dinner. I had a fish sandwich and fries with a coffee. I had like 2 coffee's and was so excited to see my Nana, Papa and Ryan.

On the way home I sat next to K instead of Cat.

I don't remember what happened because I slept.

I was so happy to be home.

I am so happy I went to Boston!

Update_

I'm all packed to go on my trip!!! I'm so excited!!! I have everything packed and ready to go. I have a after school meeting coming up about it. I don't want Nana to worry about me, but I can worry about her. I guess I'm like her in that way. I will always worry about Nana even if she is fine. I hope I can sit still all the way there. All the people who are going on the trip too are so excited. We can't wait. I don't know how many count downs there are. Every day all day I get a count down day. We get to do so much. I'll write and tell you all about it when I get back. I have camera's to tale pictures!!! I also got some money to spend on souvenirs!!!

Over the weekend I saw my Great Grandma. She looks good. We came down to help her with her things and tried to help around the house. Then we went to the store without telling her and bought her groceries. She doesn't know what to do with what we bought her. We said "To just enjoy the food!" It was nice to see her.
