I went to New Jersey to stay with family friends for the weekend. It was really fun to see everyone; but while I was there I got food poisoning. I’ve never had food poisoning before and after this I will never forget it. I spent hours on the bathroom floor in agony and am really hesitant about eating clams ever again. Besides that, it was a really fun experience and I liked going to the beach. I’m thinking about calling my friend and going to hang out, but she’s always really busy, so we’ll see what happens.

I got back from Turkey on Thursday and I have lounging ever since. The country of Turkey was amazing and I will have pictures up soon. I took a hot air balloon ride with my mom and it was a fabulous experience.
I also talked to my college roommate Leanna. She seems really nice and is from New York state. Coincidentally, she is a band person and plays clarinet and likes Harry Potter. I can’t wait to go college dorm room shopping. She’s bringing the mini fridge and the tv and I am bringing the carpet and the lighting.
I continue on my mission to lose weight. I have lost 25 pounds since January, but for a few months I have been in a rut. I must rededicate myself and continue making progress.
