I can't believe it's almost over!

If you are wondering why I still haven’t written a real post it’s because I honestly haven’t had time. The only real things I have done lately are writing lesson plans, writing reflections about lesson plans, researching lesson plans and writing a 4,000 word research paper. My only “me time” has been the hour or so I allow myself to go to the gym and workout my stress. I never thought I would become one of those gym obsessed girls but I’m turning into one, I blame it on students teaching. It is actually really nice, although I find myself talking to my friends the whole time I’m working out about teaching.

Today one of the little boys in my class asked me if I would marry him. It was the cutest thing in the world!! Totally made my day!! I told him it was against the law for me to marry him but to talk to me in 20 years if he still felt the same way. It’s nice to know that somebody wants to marry me even if he is only 5 years old. HAHA!

In exactly one month from tomorrow I will be going home! I am super excited, but at the same time I’m kind of getting sad at the thought of saying goodbye to this place forever. As homesick as I have been for the last two and a half years I still managed to have a lot of fun and make a lot of great memories. I’m going to miss going to the beach year around, hiking new hikes all the time, jumping off waterfalls, my room being the “hangout”, meeting new people from different countries all the time and all the great friendships I have made. There really is nothing like the environment at BYUH. As much as I love home, this place will always have a special place in my heart.

Since Friday was a holiday I took a short break from school work and went on the Diamond Head hike. It was really fun. Here are a few pictures.
