Sad, our last break until the end of the school year is over. At least I felt like this vacation wasn't too bad. Throughout the day before a break like this one, I am always really excited about the long weekend ahead of me. However, I often find myself at the last day of break, feeling like I wasted my whole weekend, rushing to do all my homework due to my procrastination and sleeping in. This weekend was different, and am proud of my prolific (SAT word!) self. On Friday, I woke up at 9:00, which is early for me, did my homework and went to my SAT tutor at 1:15 and spent a very productive hour doing SAT prep. After my class was over, I was planning to spend half an hour of my day waiting for the bus to go to my grandma's house where my friend was going to pick me up. Luckily, when I was looking for the bus stop, I heard a "NIKKI!" It just so happened to be my cousin and aunty driving from Costco, heading to my grandma's house. I was able to save an hour of my time just by pure luck. At my grandma's house, I was able to help my aunty carry in some groceries, and was spend that hour saved watching quality television with my grandma. There, my friend picked me up and drove me all the way to Pearl City to my gym. There, even at practice, I am proud to say was very prolific (is that even how you use the word?). I learned a back 1 1/2 aand a toe hect, and went through 10 beam routines. After practice, my dad picked me up, and went to a food court I have never been in before. I'm not quite sure what it's called; all I know is that it is in some shopping center by Walmart. There, I discovered a new food I like from Blimpie, the chicken ceasar wrap.
Saturday was the next day of my very productive break. This Saturday, I spent some many productive hours of window shopping at Ala Moana with my friend. We were able to go to all the stores and get ideas of what I wanted. Sadly however, due to my indecisiveness, I wasn't able to get anything (except for a book I was supposed to get). The plus side to all of this was that I was able to have a good time, and able to know what kind of stores have what. After that long day of shopping, I went home and had a family dinner with my two grandmas of Panda Express food. Family dinners are very rare at my house by the way, due to our family's weird schedules.
Sunday was Easter, which was when I woke up at 5:30 so I could go to an Easter sunrise service at 6 on the beach. I really liked the service, the sunrise was especially nice behind the speakers. But by the end of the service, the sun was too bright and none of us could look at the pastor. Someone was even baptised during this service. It was kind of funny because the tide was low and the pastor and the lady had to walk really far out. And when the pastor baptised her, she screamed. I'm assuming she screamed due to the cold ocean water. Nevertheless, the service in all was really good. When I got home, I finished my sleeping until 10:00. My friend then came to my house, and studied for our AP test for three hours. When she left, I went running around my block with my dad, since I am totally out of shape. Hopefully I can keep this running up every week. After this, we had yet another family dinner for Easter, with delicious food my mom had made, served on our nice plates and placemats. That was the best meal we had in a long time. I didn't even feel the pressure to finish my homework that night for everything was done earlier.
Sadly here I am back at school, my productive last long weekend ended. The only thing breaks we can look forward to now is the end of school.
