Me Time

'Me time'. I like the sound of it. And it really is just the best. You know, when you can be all alone doing whatever you want. For some people, their ‘me time’ is the same all the time, but for me, well I spend this 'me time' many different ways. First of all, because there is just so many people in my house it is hard to get this 'me time'. So sometimes I will do things like hop on my bike, go down to the field and kick a soccer ball around. Others times I will go for a nice run. But when I do get me time at home, it is usually spent reading a book. I never watch T.V. To be honest, I don’t really like T.V other than the movie theatre. T.V just seems like a waste of time... Kind of like Facebook. Lastly, sometimes my 'me time' will consist of me falling asleep and discovering the adventures that await me in my dreams. So that is how I spend my 'me time' that I rarely ever get. Always the best time of the week, spent in so many ways. Thanks God for my ‘me time’!

Blog # 5


I felt my head swing from side to side. Looking out the window I realized our 3 hour flight was over. Relieved, I started gathering my things, I was excited to see my sister Sidney, but then I realized something. I wasn't in California yet, I was in Denver, and had a four hour layover till my next flight to Cali. So like any other kid would, I spent it on Facebook. But having a large family and all, it was funny hearing all my siblings running and screaming all over the airport. After our next flight we went to the rental shop, got our mini-van and started driving to my sister’s college. I was so excited. My sister is everything to me and even 4 months straight not seeing her, killed me. But I finally saw her and my smile must have stretched a mile long. The next day I got to follow her around at her adopt a block day, which is when every Saturday she goes in a group to a specific location where she reaches out to the families and children on the street. It was loads of fun! We then drove out to the dessert and spent the next week and a half soaking up the sun and going to the mall! I love it because my entire family loves style. Even my little brother who's favorite store is the Burlington Coat Factory because they sell boy’s tuxedos! Yea, he is a nut! Anyways on the way back home it was the funniest thing, my baby sister is like a, 'get into everything machine' so I decided to make a wall for her out of suitcases in the corner of gate 71! It was the cutest thing ever because she happily played there for 3 hours till we got back. So I guess that was the most exciting part of my spring break!
