My first "job"
Today was my first day at Martinez Book Store and it was fun. I got there and Mr. Martinez was there, he gave me a hug then said "get an apron" and for the girls to show me what to do. So the first thing I did was put up new displays. When I was putting one up a man asked me a question in Spanish. I swear the only word I understood was "libro". I had to get Hilary my boss to answer him. It turned out he was asking me if he could take a book of the display. I had no idea what he said.
Later I got to put price tags and barcode numbers on the new box of books they got. It took a while because I couldn't get the stupid backs off the stickers. While I was doing this a guy came and sat across from me and he began talking to me in a language that I knew was NOT Spanish. I never heard it before. He said he was sorry and that he was talking in Mixtec (Mish-tech) his native language (Its pretty cool). He knows English, Spanish and Mixtec. He said he was a "drifter" and he was talking to me just about random stuff. Then he asked me what my birthday sign was and I told him a Leo and he said "oh from the Gregorian Calendar" he said in his culture I would be a Zapata like he is. He said I am very spiritual. So that was my first day and it was really fun.

Track Banquet 06
My friends Mariana, Laidey, and Laideys friend. Mom and Siobhan had to be in the picture.
Dads Birthday
Dads Birthday desert. Instead of ding dongs he had to settle for this. Personally it was WAY better than a ding dong.

June.. So far
So I know I haven't written in a while, but I am going to tell you everything that has happened. Well I have mad new friends on skype from Brazil. Ana and Gabi they are mother and daughter. Her mom teaches English in Brazil and has taught me a couple of things in Portuguese.
Eu tebho dezesseis (I am sixteen) quantos anos voce tem? (how old are you?). Eu sou dos estados unidos (I am from the US). De onde voce? (Where are you from?) Eu gosto de pratciar esportes. (I like practicing sports)that's pretty cool, huh?
School is almost over. I only have about 7 school days left and I am getting pretty nervous, not about my grades, but about being a senior. Apparently I am like the only one out of my friends who is seriously nervous abut senior year. College Applications, transcripts, scholarships, financial aid and not forgetting to keep grades up. Pretty nerve racking and its going to be crazy.
We have our track banquet on Tuesday and we stillhaven'tt got all of the coaches gifts. Our freaking varsity team does not want to give us THREE DOLLARS each tohelpp buy them. NO of course they don't, so of couse Kelsey and I have to buy the gifts. I have no idea what to get them,seriouslyy. My loving father has signed me up for a week track camp in July ay UC Santa Barbara. It sounds pretty cool and its going to be a good hard workout.
Yesterday we had a Galaxy game and they lost 1-2. Guess who was sitting behind us? PETER VENEGAS and COBI JONES!! Yes and I smiled at Peter and tried to get Cobis attention but he wouldn't look down. Too bad. We have one on Sunday.
