***!My summer!***

My summer was pretty much spent mostly at home. I would ride my bike outside or play basketball in my backyard. i would take care and play with my niece and nephew. I love to sleep so vacation was my time to rest. I went to six flags with a large group of youth from my church. It was really hot at six flags but it was fun. I got on water rides with my friends and sister. We ate hamburgers really good. Drank lots of soda and screamed a lot on the rides. We walk all around the park and were there since the morning until it closed. Had a great time with friends and family. I also went to San Fernando dam with all my family and had a great time. We got in the lake, their were so many people but the water was cool and refreshing so we didn't mind the sun. There were so many ducks and they would chase us it was scary but fun. I brought some rocks as memories, and even though i was red from my face when i got home i still had fun. I enjoy spending time with my family. I also had a sleep over with my best friend, Aileen. We slept late like around 4 am :) , watched movies and played games. Ate lots of junk food and got in her pool. We even baked a cake, mmmm delicous. She got a new puppy, so cute and small. She’s really a great friend to talk to and to especially laugh with. Some days of my vacation i would go with m y mom to work. But mostly other would only be at home cleaning or watching t.v.. I wish i could of done more things during vacation but with what i did i enjoyed it very much.  

                           <Moments of Life>

Moments of hapiness, moments of sadness, moments of anger, moments to cry, moments of bitterness, moments of joy, moments to laugh, moments of fear, moments to shout, moments to let everything out. Each of these moments has its memories it doesnt matter if they were positive or negative all that matters is what you learned from each of these moments. Cherish the good moments and forget about the bad. Learn from your mistakes. Every moment counts as an experience of your journey in life.
