Tomorrow morning, my grandparents, and Aunt Sharon are going to the beach. We are going to Jensen Beach, and it has a 40% chance of rain, which I hope it doesn't. But my Aunt Sharon says that when it rains down here its for not even 10 min. and it goes away fast, and the sun is back out. I can't wait to go to the beach and layout and get a tan! Today I layed out for a little bit and I got a sunburn on my face. But don't worry I will have that tan tomorrow! The beach is my favorite part about coming down to Florida. I can lay on that beach all day and night long. I love sitting by the ocean and hearing the water, its so nice and calming. I can think about anything there. I am also going to collect a whole bunch of seashells and bring them home with me on Monday. Like I said before I love Florida, but I miss home, and my own BED!

Today is Thansgiving, and my grandma, grandpa, Aunt Sharon, and Uncle are sharing this day together. My grandma and Aunt Sharon made our wonderful dinner, and it was delicous! What I had on my plate was turkey, mashpotatoes, buns, greenbean casourole, and stuffing. And let me tell you it was GOOD! While we were eating we were watching football, and the greenbay packers won...(Boo). After, we had dinner we had pie! After, dinner we walked around the block, and enjoyed this beautiful day in Florida, it got up to 85 degrees! Boy, was it hot! My face got a little burnt, and so did my arms.

Today we left Winter Park, and drove 2 hours to Port. St.Lucie. I went with my grandparents and my grandpa drove. Yesterday was his 85th birthday, so as you can imagine, I had to navigate from Winter Park to Port. St. Lucie. Which was different for me cause Floridas highways are a little different. But I made it through with a little agrvation, but we got there with know problems. When we got to my Aunt Sharons I felt relieved, because I told my grandpa how to get all the way down there. We went out to dinner when we got there, and then I went straight to BED! I can't tell you how much I MISS my bed, home, and famiy! I love it down here in Florida, but its not the same as Illinois. I cant wait to be HOME!

Today I Am in Florida and I have had a fun day.. I first woke up to somewhat warm weather. Then my grandma and Liza went to Park Ave. which is full of shoppes and such. As well, we celebrated my grandpas birthday at my Aunt Kates house..which is HUGE..I mean like millions..UNbeliveable...But the thing that I started to think about was, that I wouldnt want that big of a house to were I dont know were anything is.. or I'd get lost.. They have a theater room, workout room, they have four kids and each kid has there own huge walkin closet and not to mention there own bathroom! On top of that they have secret hidden spots around the house... such as, say your looking at the bookself, and you accidently push it, IT'LL OPEN! On top of that theres of course a built in pool,hottub, outside kitchen. I mean this house should be on MTV cribs...

All of a sudden it started to get cold and windy, and walking around campus really stinks cause you freeze as you walk from building to building. I wish that some how, when it turns cold they could put some block up's to keep the cold air, and the cold wind somewhat out. But I also understand that it would cost some money, but if they do some type of fundraiser then they could earn the money for it. It's the worst way to catch a cold, breathing in the cold air, but that's why most people wear scarfs, hats, jackets, and gloves. But after a while, you get tired of dragging all that stuff around.

Lately, For some reason I have been going over my cell phone bill, which I don't understand Cause I don't use my phone as much. Supposely, I went over my minutes by 100 min. which I knew that was wrong. So, I called Nextel and told them about what I thought, and they did some filter run through by phone and made sure they weren't messing up, sure enough they were charging me for night and weekends, which I get free, and they fixed the problem and everything was solved, I didn't have to that outrageous bill!

Lately, I've been feeling stressed out. I've been getting stressed out about school, work, money, and my future. Lately, its been going to work, going to school, and same thing over adn over. By the time i get home from work, Im tired, hungry, and need to take a shower. So that means when I have homework I try to do it between my classes or after work, but when I do my homework after work I don't give it my all, because Im just so tired. Therefore, I belive I need to cut back a couple days of work, or make more money? I need to do good in school, and I need money .
