Hallie

She's sitting over there in the boat studying Spanish and commenting about how it's awkward that there is a picture of a man getting out of shower. It's for the verb ducharse (to wash) of course.
Getting to know Hallie this past year has been great. There have been some great as well as not so productive study sessions in the library, during which she batted Cheetos.
*BLEEEEEEEEEP* THE NATIONAL WEATHER SYSTEM IS ANNOUNCING...
that Hallie really wants to watch the royal wedding because she "really does love royal weddings". Apparently enough to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning tomorrow. She also wishes she was invited to wedding, however, one day when she knows the queen she will get invited to the royal weddings.
*BLEEEEEEEEEEEP*
Now back to this memorable moment. The conversation above also is another reason Hallie is so great. She makes everybody laugh with her sense of humor and her comments. There have also been times she is so happy that her joy radiates out to the rest of us. And one of my favorite is her encouraging notes and special drawings on people's dry-erase boards. I'm sure all of you can relate this in one way or another :) To finish I will leave you all with the knowledge that Hallie is now looking at the weather and telling Candice to get back to her homework. All is right in the world :)
