I Finished My Novel!

On Monday,  February 24 in the morning, I finished my novel in school. Double spaced it is 202 pages and 56,160 words. I was very happy, so happy that I jumped up from my seat and danced with joy. Everyone was really proud of me, and that night my dad printed out two copies of the manuscript so me my parents and I could edit it. My dad also printed one out for himself, so we can all read through it.
   If you didn't know, I have been writing a novel for the last four months. I was supposed to get it done by the 28th, but I finished earlier so it gave my family more time to revise. I am really excited!

My Visit to Chicago

This week, my school is on break, so my whole family went to Chicago. Since I used to live there, I was going to see all of my friends and my old neighborhood and everything.
My dad, sister, and I flew out to Chicago on Saturday. My mom was stuck in Arizona because all of the snow, so she had to fly in on Sunday. We all stayed at my mom's friend's house, and on Saturday one of my sister's friends and a family friend came over.
The next day I went over to another friend's house to play. After that,  my parents and I went to another friends house to have dinner, and so I also slept over.
The next day, I got to go to my old school to visit for half a day. After that, I got to sleep over with another one of my friends.
The next day I flew home. I was supposed to fly home in the early evening, but my plane was delayed three hours. I got home at two in the morning, and finally my vacation was over.
