Kennewick Washington


So a couple weekends ago, we had a three day weekend, presidents day weekend. Sadly that was that last day off we have for the rest of the school year. :( Oh well I guess.
                Here’s where it all started. Monday February 15, 2012… Midterm’s week. Yuck!  And knowing me, I’m such a great procrastinator; I saved all three of my midterms till the very last minute. It was 8:00pm on Thursday night, 2 hours before the testing center closed, I was only a 1/3 of the way through my American Heritage Midterm, still had to get home and pack, and had to get up at 5:00am to enjoy a ten hour car ride to Washington, woo hoo! After I finished my test, I went to work out to blow off some steam because of the great score I got on my midterm. (#sarcasm) After walking home, I made some dinner, and sat on the couch, lamenting over how I’m going tell my parents about my test score. Anyways, then I realized that it was almost 11 o’clock and I should probably start packing for my wonderful weekend that I’ve been waiting for all week! Then my friend texted me and wanted to hang out, so being the procrastinator that I am, I invited them over and we hung out for a while. Long story short I ended up staying up all night and finished packing at 4:30am later that “night”.
                We were only on the road for eight hours actually, our drivers liked to speed. And we finally made it to Kennewick Washington! I still hadn’t slept because my friends/family and I were all too excited about our road trip, so none of us slept. By this time I had been up for more than 36 hours, awesome. We got home, unpacked, ate some food and just enjoyed each other’s company. I was living at my best friend Priscilla’s house, so I was with her family most of the time.  
Here is what our weekend festivities consisted of:
·         We went bowling
·         Saw a movie  at the movie theater
·         Had a Star Wars Movie marathon
·         Went 4-Wheeling
·         Went to a bon-fire down in the canyon
·         Had multiple dart gun wars in the basement
·         Ate lots of delicious Brazilian food – Priscilla’s family is from Brazil
·         I gave numerous piano performances for all my friends’ families
·         And met a lot of awesome people
I wish that weekend would have been longer, it was such an amazing weekend, I would relive it every day! I LOVE WASHINGTON!! :D
