This weekend's Fun!

Well, I attended my very first middle school teacher's conference. It was held at the San Luis Convention Center in Galveston, TX. My friend Ashley and I went to the conference but Mike and Duane went with us to Galveston and they hung out together while we were busy. It was extremely fun and I will definitely look forward to going to more conferences like this.

I got a lot of free stuff and some awesome ideas. Some sessions were geared toward math while others were geared towards other school subjects.

Anyways, at least now I dont have to do one of my assignments for methods because I attended this conference while also having fun.

After the conference, we ate lunch with Duane and Mike and then went and hung out on the beach. Needless to say, we tried to buy sunscreen at a gas station on the west side of the island but what kind of store on an island with a beach doesnt sell this product? On that note, we all got burnt in the face but oh well we all had some major fun!

On our way home, we thought we would just take the bridge to surf side and go home 288 but we didnt know that most of the bridge was washed away from hurricane Ike. So on our journey home, we got to take a detour off the side of the road onto gravel that they laid down to be driven on as well as driving on the beach....which Mike's truck didnt agree with lol!

Oh well, we made it home and safe and now Mike and I are ready for Spring Break in San Antonio!
