Spring Break

School Break Days 

During my spring break I didn't really do a lot of things besides stay home and help my mom around the house. In that week I went to the movies with my boyfriend and his family. I didn't really meet new people but I got time to see an old friend of mine for a bit. The only movie I watched was Boss Baby and I am watching a series that is called Switch at Birth. I didn't play any sports or watched any games. The CTR experience that I had over my break was to be helpful around the house and with others that needed help. I am reading a book that was barely released and its called Thirteen Reasons Why. The only homework that I had was for Spanish and Math so my boyfriend and I did homework together on Saturday. For the last day of spring break which was Sunday my moms friend from many years threw a little party for her youngest daughter because it was her birthday week and at the end we hid eggs for the little kids that were there.
