CHANGES AND BBALL

Hello to everybody!

I hope you all are doing great! I have to say that this week with Eileen, Brian and Tula has been fantastic, I really like them. We got along very well, I think.

On Friday Eileen and Brian were leaving to go to New York for a week, so I am staying with my friend Jenna, whose parents are family friends with Eileen and Brian. Jenna goes to Pres with me, and she is a very good friend. They are Donna (the mother), Jeff (the father), Jenna (my friend, the oldest daughter), Dayna (the youngest daughter, she is so cute!) and Fluffy (the cat, she is soft!) That day we went to a Fish Fry, since it is Lent and we are supposed to not eat meat. It was nice, I like eating fish. I believe that Galicia has the best fish in the world!

On Saturday I went to a basketball game with Donna. It was my first American (well, and Spanish too) basketball game that I saw being played, and it was awesome! It was University of Louisville against Notre Dame, in Indiana. We (UofL) won! It was played at the Yum! Center, sponsored by KFC. It is very nice! I really felt like in one of those movies that are about sports, and winning is so important! I took in only two hours six hundred pictures! What do you think of that?


On Sunday I went to a concert of St. Mary's College and the Prezettes of Pres. It was so nice! I love hear singing choirs, I believe that their voices are very powerful, and it is fantastic. I also studied and did homework pretty much the whole weekend, because it is the end of the Quarter and we have so many things to do!



On Thursday I will be going on the Junior Retreat with my Theology class at Pres. It is focused on volunteering services, and I am really excited about it. I love helping other people, it makes me feel happy. The Retreat is a surprise, so I do not know what kind of service we are going to do, but I am sure it will be good and helpful for our Community.

See you next Sunday!

Bye Bye!

  1. Hola mi niña. Menudo aspecto genial tiene el campo de baloncesto. Es que estar en los campos de fútbol, baloncesto, en cualquier deporte es mucho más excitante que verlo en televisión. Me alegro mucho que te haya gustado.
    Se nota que estudias fotografía (por hacer tantas fotos) y también tienes a quien salir.
    Los conciertos son muy bonitos, relajantes y siempre es cultura.
    Muchos besos guapa.

    1. Hola mami. Pues sí, el campo de baloncesto (y el partido, y el ambiente) fue fantástico. Estuvo genial.
      Si es que papi y yo estamos obsesionados con las fotos. Me encanta sacar fotos, capturar momentos y sentimientos.
      Sí, los conciertos están genial, en su mayoría. Me gusta mucho escuchar personas cantando en vivo.
      Besos, mami.

    1. Vi, I am so jealous that you could go to the Dépor-Celta! We lost, but I am sure that we will win the next one. Come on, Celta! You can! Be always very careful, and don't wear the Celta's t-shirt without a jacket in Coruña. I am having a good time and I am glad you are having one too.
      Thanks for your comment, Vi.
      Kisses!

  4. JA! JA! requete JA!

    as Victoria would say: Ja!, the Celta lost the match!. Though not think it's any good idea changed to Deportivo because is almost clear that it will descend level.

    I hope that you, in case  of being downgraded, keep your optimism and from that new level -more down- you will can gain bigger momentum and so again you will recover, not last level, but a new level much more high than last.

    Often, if you go back over your steps, down of level, you will gain much more momentum to get goals highes, riding through the previous position and overcome it.

    Courage and good luck in everything!

    I love you.

    1. Daddy! Don't be mean! You have to be understanding with the poor Celta! I think both of them are going to go down, so...
      I agree with you, that we have to overcome the difficulties and go over the problems, to arrive even farther than when the problems started.
      Thank you, daddy! I love you too! Thanks for your comment!
