My Summer Vacations
Well, my summer vacations started on June 6 of the current year, when I went to my friends to the Laguna de Apoyo and then we went to Granada. After that, we followed different plans for our vacations. On June, I went out A LOT with my friends: We went to Moods, Broder, El Karaoke, The Reef and we also went out to have dinner or lunch. My mom always said that I was a bum because I was never home and all I did was to go out and party; nevertheless that was not all I did during June, on June 21 I went to Costa Rica with my sister on a road trip, which was really nice because I don't really have a good relationship with her and in this trip we grew closer to each other and we developed a better relationship. In Costa Rica, what we enjoyed the most was THE FOOD! Because in Costa Rica, there are a lot of American franchises which are not present in Nicaragua, therefore we took advantage of that. The place we visited the most, I would say, was Starbucks. Literally, we went to Starbucks each and everyday more than one time a day, specially because we are both complete coffee addicts, also, we went to Wendy's and Tony Roma's a lot.
We came back to Nicaragua on July 6, and when we came back I had an accident in which I injured my meniscus, a cartilage located in the knee. I didn't give it a lot of importance and then on my birthday, July 14 when I went to Moods I guess I damaged my knee once again and this made me go to the hospital the next day to get my knee checked. I had to wear a cast and crutches until the day before we entered school, and I asked the doctor to take it off before because I would get too tired if I wore a cast and crutches during school, since I have to walk a lot and carry many heavy books. So, right now, I can't really do many things with it right now. Right now I am really sad because many of my friends are leaving soon to go to college, and I think that that is the saddest thing about my summer, specially because my best friend is leaving within a week.
I would say it was a good summer, but it was not the best because of my knee. I just hope that my next summer will be better because it will be one of my lasts summers since the school year after that one I will be a senior. I recently started school a couple of days ago and I can already feel the pressure of junior year, specially because I'm taking 3 AP Classes and 2 Pre-AP classes; add that stress to the stress of the SAT and to find the right colleges to add my college list for next year and that makes a really stressful year, nevertheless, I think I will do just fine.
