Greetings!
I can't believe in 9 short weeks from this day and hour, I will be on a plane heading towards Hawaii, which I will have a layover, then I basically change planes in Houston, Texas which will take me on to Atlanta. Wow! It seems like a long time, but I know it will fly by! Tomorrow evening I will be handing out report cards...third time of that. Then, the next time I will do that is the day that I leave. I will hand out final report cards Monday, June 3, 9-4 then head to the airport for an 8 pm flight! This will be different for me. I've never flown at night, and both flights will be at night. From Majuro, I will get into Hawaii around 2ish in the morning. Then I fly out of Hawaii at 7pm, just to arrive in Houston in the morning. Then, the flight into Atlanta will be during the day. 

I can't believe Easter has come and gone already. Yes, here it is the evening of April first. We had today off from school. I already had my report cards finished, so I just had a lazy day. I like those kinds of days. :) I did some reading. I will have to get it out of my system, as in a few weeks I will get my course sheets for Pensacola Christian College, summer classes. I  will then start reading things for summer.Now, it just feels like it is crunch time. I need to make sure I get everything that I want from the island, so I can be sending it back...but also make sure I have money when I return. I will have to get my car insurance up and running, get a new cell phone. I've been looking at StraightTalk. I know one friend, Kelley, has it. I wanted to see if anyone else has it too...just to get feedback on the service and reception that you all get. I think that is the best for the money...if it has good reception area like it looks like it does. Just any help would be very beneficial. I do think I need a cell phone to travel all the way to Pensacola by myself, so before I go, I want to find a good one that doesn't cost me an arm and a leg. Those are just a few things I am going to be getting again when I return. I do need to get my hair cut too! But the lady I've been using moved to Hartwell. I am not sure what I am going to do for that, but I'm sure I will find someone I like when I get back. 

I was invited to Easter dinner with the Bucks. The other girls were invited but weren't able to make it. Pastor Lang, Belinda, and their son Jonathan came too. We enjoyed ham, pork...from a freshly killed pig, mashed potatoes, gravy, rice, deviled eggs, and corn. Banana pudding was the dessert. It was a nice time of fellowship. The church gave out sandwiches, hard-boiled eggs, and a drink to those in attendance. Someone also brought coconuts. Many people here poke a hole in the coconut to drink the milk out of it. Then you can scrape out the insides and let them dry for the coconut flesh. The coconut milk is okay. I like coconut, but not fresh coconut, as it is still wet from the liquid being inside. Once it dries, I like it. Even though the church voted on it, it is an expensive thing to offer the community...sandwiches/eggs/drinks. Each person would get one of each. One large loaf of bread costs 2.99, which I found out is more than minimum wage here...$2.25 an hour. Wow! That is a sacrifice for some families...families were asked to bring 3 loaves of sandwiches, and 3 dozen eggs. Eggs are about $2.50 a dozen! Singles were to bring 2 of each. They later decided we girls in the apartment could bring one of each...which would be total of 3 of each from one household. So, I was good with that. I had already purchased 2 dozen eggs, so I gave them to Mrs. Buck for the deviled eggs. 

I guess that is all for now. I hope all had a blessed Easter, and remember that He is alive. He is not in the grave anymore! He is risen indeed! 

Blessings!
