Hello Readers.

With coop coming to an end, I have decided to take some time off to visit my family and friends in St. Martin. I have planned a full week of events and things to do. These include eating certain foods, going to particular places, doing my favorite water sports, and spending quality time with relatives.

Last night, I spoke with a couple friends who are planning a camping trip. Basically, everyone is going to be home from university. We will most likely have a bonfire. This is always a great time to share any college stories and reminisce on high school memories.

The other day, while speaking to my mother, I brought up the issue of spending time with family vs. friends. I have a really big family and finding time to see everyone is definitely going to be a challenge. In any case, I intend to manage my time well and spend it with both my family and my close friends.

I AM EXTREMELY EXCITED TO BE GOING HOME!!! Be sure to come back in two weeks for an account of my trip and to see some pictures!
