Summer

Summer is freaking amazing! I love summer! I had soooo much fun, and it's not even over. Israel from July 2-22 was AMAZING! It was the best experience EVER! I learned so much about the Jewish religion. I went there to participate in the WORLD Maccabiah games (Jewish Olympics). They were SOOO cool! Opening ceremonies was amazing! We walked in with about 600 people from United States. Oh, and I forgot to mention that WE WON GOLD BABY!! It was amazing... especially being the first girls basketball team (disregarding the open team) to participate in these games and getting 1ST PLACE! We played amazing and I love my whole freaking team! I made so many new friends from all over the world- usa, australia, canada, south africa, and of course the us. MACCABITCHES & BROS 4 LIFE!!!:D
July 23-30= FLORIDA! Nice, relaxing vacation with my mom, dad, and bro. No cute guys though. Got to hang out by the beach and pool though and went to Busch Gardens. Good way to catch up on some sleep from Israel.
July 31-August 7= HAWAII!! I had so much fun here! The scene is just so beautiful. The water is so nice and the volcanoes were so cool! I went with my mom and parasailed and went up to the crater (haleakalah). I also got to meet some cool people from Alabama, Colorado, and Delaware. I also met the Senator of Colorado and a lot of Attorneys Generals.
August 7-13= Basketball practice for Maccabi and school. I slept 16 hours one day because I was just so tired. I had 2 practices a day sometimes.
August 14-19= VIRGINIA!! Oh man! I had so much fun and met more people! I freakin LOVE lexi and danielle. Best roomates ever! Haha. Worst home family but that's okay. I freakin LOVEEEE my marblehead boys! Matt and Alex are definitely the coolest kids ever. Oh, and can't forget Zach. I saw Phil, who I met in Hawaii, and I saw my favorite person ever, JEREMY who i met in israel as well as mitch and travis. WE GOT GOLD TOO! 2 gold medals in one summer. Can't ask for anything better than that.

I definitely had the best summer ever! I can't ask for anything better. I am going to see Sean on Tuesday when I go to South Beach with my best friends. Perfect way to end the best summer.
