I am so glad I went home this weekend. I was able to catch up with my parents and tell them about my semester so far. My parents took us to dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant, El Tiempo. They have the best fajitas! My mouth waters thinking about it. It was so nice to have this time with my parents and laugh with them. Having to leave home to come back to college is never fun, but even leaving my dog is the hardest thing ever. I know it may sound a little crazy to say, but I'm a little obsessed with her lol! I miss being home, because when I am home I feel like I do not have to think about school. I can kind of put school on pause for a few days to spend time with family. On the way back to San Marcos, I realized going home is become slimmer. I will most likely not being home until Thanksgiving break. That is soo long! I know my parents are coming up a few times to see us which will be nice, but it is still not the same as being at home. Especially next semester. I probably will not be going home due to student teaching. I could have done student teaching at home, since Cy-Fair ISD is one of the districts that is on the "out of area" districts list for student teaching. Despite, this I decided to try Hays CISD and Wimberly to broaden my horizons. I have learned to be grateful to have been able to go home so many times throughout my college experience, because it is getting harder.

I am starting to get nervous for my certification tests because I decided to register for all three exams in October. I have been studying since August and still do not feel prepared. It is nerve wracking knowing part of my career is based off passing three huge tests. I am not a great test taker and I hope to do well. My main goal is to pass all three exams on the first attempt; that way  I can get them out of the way before student teaching. In my opinion, there is not really a good time to take these exams since there is student teaching in the spring. I am probably stretching myself thin for taking all three tests this semester, but I want to do the best I can.

On Saturday my sister and I decided to have a girls day since we do not hang out as much even though we are roommates. School keeps everything busy so it is hard to hangout with her. We had a really great time shopping at the outlets and going out to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. We then came back to our house and had a movie night and dessert. It was a very relaxing day and I enjoyed being able  to hang out with my sister. The day was filled with laughs, food and shopping!

On Friday night, my roommates and I went to see the movie "IT". We got there at 9:30 and found out all of the showtimes were sold out for that particular movie. We all decided to purchase tickets for the movie for Saturday. The girl at the ticket booth told us to get there early Saturday night so we could get good seats. The next night we got at the movie theater at 8:00 which was over an hour till the movie started. One of the employees told us to form a line since the previous showing was still going on. We were so happy we were the first ones in line because we were able to get first choice on seats. My friends and I waiting in line which felt like forever anticipating the movie. Once the theater room doors opened I bolted to make sure I got a good seats. Throughout the movie my heart was pounding due to the anticipation. When there were intense scenes I would hide my face in my jacket. Usually in scary movies when there are so many intense scenes I usually start laughing.
