Trip (Jan 12)

These past few days I was really busy with school stuff...that's why I didn't blog as often...but I'm back now with some stuff to tell! haha

However, yesterday we went somewhere near Raymondville to the bay in an area called Port Mansfield. I had never been here, but it was a good experience! It was kind of far, about 2 hours away. It was so unexpected, we didn't plan it. My aunt just called us and told us that we should go fishing with her family. Well we followed them and realized we were going somewhere further away from the canals my uncle usually goes fishing to. It was a nice trip over there, I was able to take some pictures of random old building, and of course I took pictures of the water and all that when we arrived. We passed through a whole area of wind turbines those things are huge! I never knew they were that big! It was a pretty cool sight. When we got there we saw a bunch of deer everywhere! It was weird cause we were just there passing by them and they weren't afraid or anything, this was in town where the environment was surrounded by houses and everything. They were just there and I guess they were very common to people in the area, like cats and dogs lol. 

There was no one by the bay, probably cause it was kind of windy and cold haha. We walked around and I went up this little cliff/hill and I had an amazing view up there. The water wasn't too clean though, but then again we were in the bay. We could see a light blinking a few miles off the shore, which was from South Padre Island, the bay was between Texas and the Island. Then of course, when you got to  the island you could see the beach (Gulf of Mexico) on the other side. 

We saw a dock not too far from there and my aunt and I decided to go see if we could go take some pictures there. We walked by the shore and on the way there was saw a huge crab running away from us! Haha it was kind of funny. After about 10 minutes of walking we got there. The dock was attached to this beach house or something like that. There was no one there so we just climbed to the dock and took some pictures. After a few minutes my mom and cousins came to take pictures too. 

When we got back to where the cars were it was getting dark, but we still stayed. My uncle got some fish. For the record, I like fishing but I don't like eating fish haha. 

Soon after that it was pitched black so we decided to go home, it was a nice trip back also. It seemed faster haha. 

Today was an ok day. I only went out to church with my mom and brothers, I hope tomorrow is a good day at school. Finals weeks starts!

Here are some pics from the trip

Bad Weather

I'm late on this blog...it's now Jan 10, but I'll talk of the things from Jan 9 haha

So it turns out the storm wasn't even that bad. I didn't hear anything and slept through the night just fine. I woke up and it was raining. I was gonna run to the bus stop but it was raining relatively hard, so my mom decided to take me and my brothers to school on the bus. It was just rain, it didn't hail or anything as some people had said. People even put covers on top of their cars to protects them in case. I remember the first time (out of two times) that it hailed last year there were a lot of broken windows. While it hailed all that we would hear were the car alarms going off and the hail hitting the windows of the house.That time was crazy, they even canceled school for a few days I think. During that time we only had two broken windows at our place, not bad considering some people had a lot of water come into their homes, messing up a lot of the things inside. Nothing had happened to our car either, and it was even outside with nothing to cover it!

Well that was early morning. When I got to school it was noticeable that there were some people absent. However, by the end of first period everything seemed to be back to normal, like everyone was there. A lot of people were late though. We kept doing reviews for final exams next week. I'm glad it's and early dismissal week also. The day went well :) But something even better happened today...

I got accepted into Philadelphia University! I checked online and say that my status now said "Accepted"....I felt so good reading that! Now I just need the official letter to come in the mail. So far I've been accepted to UTPA here near me, University of Houston, Texas State University at San Marcos and of course PhilaU. The latter is the only one I applied to out of state...hmm we'll see what happens. I guess there is a chance of attending if I get good scholarships. If not I'll just stay here...

Here are some pictures:

Tree at school after the storm cleared up in the afternoon

                                About a week ago or so, it was cold that day....and a little rainy

Storm

Well today went pretty well at school, average day. It did wake up kind of windy and rainy, dark gray day. I actually like days like these...I don't know why. Maybe cause I like to take pictures in this type of setting. I prefer these days over sunny days, though it's a close race.

We kept doing study guides for most of the day. We had another substitute for half of the day in some classes, it went pretty good, thought it got kind of boring. I finally sent the paper to fix my transcript for next semester, I hope they make the changes I want. During Clinical Rotation class we laughed as usual in our little group of friends. Pharmacy was about the same, but with other friends since not all have both classes. These two classes were the ones we had a substitute for since our teacher had a family emergency. I hope everything is ok with her.

We're supposed to have some kind of storm today with tornadoes and hail. It's very windy right now, I don't have much time here on the computer since I have to shut it down to avoid any damage to it cause of the storm, so I'll post tomorrow about that day. I hope it goes well, I have a few tests!
