Hi, it’s hmsleilani and today I am going to talk about my plans for this upcoming Spring Break.

This spring break my friends and I are planning a play date or sleepover over the spring break. My sister and I are basically kind of busy over the spring break. We are seeing a lot of our friends too. We are also probably going to stay at the restaurant when we are free, so we aren’t going to be home for a while. This is the last week before the spring break starts and I am so excited.  We have planned these hangouts for over one month and so excited to finally be going.

Our first hangout is going to be a sleepover. We are sleeping at a friends house that lives in Kailua. We will be going to the mall, the beach, and even going to do a baking challenge. We are also going to do a challenge that will last for almost the whole entire day. We will be eating with it, sleeping with it, and basically doing everything with it. I am not going to spoil the challenge but I know it’s going to be pretty fun.

We also have a little hangout another day too. On the way to our friend’s house, we will be taking another friend with us. Our spring break only lasts for one week while my sister’s spring break will last for about two weeks. So she will have more fun time to see her friends and more break time than we do. My sister and I haven’t started packing yet, but I always get really excited. We have other plans for the spring break too but I wanted to tell you guys this upcoming sleepover and hangout. Now that the date is getting closer, we definitely know what we will be doing.

Well, that’s all for today,

Hi, it’s hmsleilani and today I am going to talk about this past 2nd trimester.

I think that I did pretty good because I got a total GPA of 3.78. I hope that it’s good for a seventh grader at the HMS. I think I had about 2 B’s and one A-. I was actually really happy that I got an honor roll. We got some chocolate candy and an award paper signed by the principal. That was also the day that our penpals left us. Check out my other blog about the Keiai Visit. It was also raining hard too and after we came back outside, we all were wet.

After we got our rewards, we all played Twister. It was by grade level so eighth grade when first and then us and then the sixth graders. My hair got in the way but luckily for me, someone tied it up. My sister and I were tied because we were the last ones standing or playing Twister. We also went to the temple side later for the Spring Higon Service our school always does. I didn’t win anything, but at least I got an award for Honor roll and I am pretty sure that was it.

One of the topics was a class that I wasn’t in. Another one was a bright link award that one of my classmates won. There were others too that they had given awards to. We sat with our buddies when our classmates got their awards. The person who wins gets a paper contract thing and that is what the people got for the trimester awards of the honor roll and the head of school.  The only person who signs the contract is the principle.

Well, that’s all for today,

Hi, it’s hsmleilani and today I am going to talk about the keiai students that came to HMS.

Hanging with our penpal was so much fun. My sister and I had a total of 3 penpals. I had one and my sister had two penpals. The first day I was so excited to meet them because we had been writing to each other for so long. It felt good to see them in person rather than just seeing them in pictures. We went to the social hall and the temple. We did our temple service kind of the Japanese way. Our school and their school exchanged gifts with each other. We did some presentations and they even made a mini quiz or game for us to play. On the first day, we took them home to hang with our dogs because I didn’t want Beast to bark at them all night.

The second day we all went to Sea Life Park. We had to go into groups since there were a bunch of us. Going there was a really long ride and I was really tired. I was going to check my phone on the way there to see if my finger was turned off, but then I forgot that I had left my phone at home. I got a bit mad, but at least I had my penpal to hang with. I was in group black which is group nine and the last group. We went to see the dolphins and even went into the birdcage. I was scared if a bird would have landed on me. We then went for a little snack at the snack bar before we left. My friends and I got dippin dots. I got cotton candy flavor and it was really good. My penpal and I had a really fun time at Sea Life Park.

On the last day, most of us were crying since we would most likely not see our penpals again. I was a bit sad to not see my penpal. We took them out to eat the night before too. We went to the mall and got something for ourselves. They wanted to go to certain stores, but they didn’t end up getting anything at all. Our sister was also there to help us since she had more experience hosting penpals than we did. I had so much fun with them and I do really wish that I could see them again someday later on int he future.

Well, that’s all for today,
