I hope all is well! I know this is cliche, but I can't believe it's March! I only have 30 more days of being a child. That is really weird. I know, I know, your probably all thinking,"What! the little baby is all grown up and savin' China!" (Mulan) :)
So, this week was not very fun. Sorry to be all johnny rain-cloud, but it wasn't. We had mock exams all week. So basically, they squeezed 12 exams (that really span over a period of 3 weeks in May) into 1 week. They are also pretty much all essay writing which is definitely not my strong point. Your probably all thinking, "whoopdidoo, that's college finals for ya", but hey, I'm still in high school so I can complain! :). Let's just say I am VERY glad to be done with the week. After my last exam on Friday I wanted to jump on the rooftops and shout with jubilee!
That being said, I had a VERY relaxing weekend. I didn't do any homework or anything even remotely related to school which was so nice! I desperately needed a break! On Friday, after all of our exams were over, some of my friends and I went out to lunch at a sushi restaurant. I then went to the grocery store to get some badly needed groceries. Mom and dad have been crazy busy this week. They've been on a mission tour doing zone conferences all week. They were still in Phnom Penh doing conferences with the missionaries down here for the first part of the week, and then on Thursday they left for the other provinces. It was a little bit of a lonely week without seeing them hardly at all. That, combined with Elder and Sister Wilson from the Area being here, is the reason our food supply was dwindling by the end of the week. I can't really complain though because I absolutely LOVE going grocery shopping. This is going to sound really off the charts (I might have already mentioned this), but it's almost relaxing for me to go grocery shopping! Okay, weird I know. By the time I got home and washed all the food I was a sweaty mess! The temperature has shot up just in the last week. When you walk outside you get that feeling similar to when you open a hot oven, and it feels like your walking around in an oven! I don't know how the missionaries do it all day because I was drained by the time I had come home from the store.
That night I made some "ice cream" with greek yogurt that I've been randomly craving and so happy I found, and pigged out as I watched a chick flick. What can I say?! That's my life! :) On Saturday I had institute and dance. I spent the rest of the day cleaning my room, baking zucchini bread which didn't really turn out :), and washing dishes. I also read a non-school book which was so fun, and did some cross-stitching as I watched another chick flick. Now that I'm writing it, it doesn't sound very relaxing at all, but just not doing any school work made it a nice weekend for me!
Well, I think that's it. I'm sooooooooooooooo sooooooooo excited for mom and dad to get home tonight!
I love you all so much and miss you tons!
Love,
Kenzie
