Summer Recap

Well, where do I begin? I have had a busy summer that has allowed me to have access to a computer sporatically. So I have had very limited chances to use a computer or my xbox 360.

Summer started for me during the first week of May, because that's when I finished school. Just for refreshment, I live in California but go to school in Michigan. Well, 1 week after school ended I flew back to California to visit my family. I knew ahead of time that my trip would consist of two visits: my mom and stepdad in Southern California, and my dad and stepmom in Northern California. In each area I live a completely different life.

My intention for visiting my family in SoCal was to visit family and to get a summer job, which I did. However, some things out of the ordinary did occur. First, I had to do some house sitting because my mom and stepdad had to go away on business. Consequently, I was living alone for a couple of weeks. While they were gone I took a trip to Six Flags Magic Mountain with a good friend of mine which wound up being a lot of fun. Perhaps the most unusual and unexpected event occured down here while I was in SoCal, a tornado touched down. Not only that, but it touched down only a couple of miles away from the house and I recorded a video of it. This was all during May.

Two weeks ago I drove up to Northern California to visit my dad and stepmom, as well as my two younger sisters they had adopted. When I got to the house they had surprised me with a pool in the backyard, and I'm not talking about a 4 foot, above ground pool that is bought in a store. This was a good sized pool that was placed between a gazebo and a fountain in the backyard. It is 7 feet deep and on the deep end there is a waterfall leading into the pool. So I pretty much spent those two weeks living in the pool. As well as visiting friends and going to a NASCAR race. I went to the race that was held at Infineon raceway and had a lot of fun, it was my 3rd time going to that race track.

Today I drove back to SoCal where I plan on to resume working for a few more weeks before flying back to Michigan. Man, I can't believe my time in the state is almost over.
