The best part of 2008 I would have to say is spending time with my family during the remodeling of my house. The whole renovation took about three months to finish but in the end my kitchen ended amazing. Well at least that's what my family thinks. The worst part of 2008 is most definitely my mother being in the hospital. It came out of no where. I was at my friends house, sleeping over and in the morning I get a phone call from my sister saying shes coming to get me, our mothers in the hospital! My sister didn't explain why or anything so I'm crying, running around trying to get all my stuff, scared out of my mind, and don't know if my mothers ok or not. Once my sister picked me up I found out that my mommy went in the hostpital around 4 in the morning, I'm still crying. I wait and wait for my father to get home from the hospital to see how my mommy is. He comes home and like 4 hours later my dad, sister, and I went to the hospital to cheak on my mom and I found out she was going to be ok but she had to stay the night. I didn't her to but what was I going to do? Anyway we left and I didn't go to sleep at all that night. I was to worried about my mother. I just wanted her home. Around 6 o'clock she got home and felt so much better. What I hope for in 2009 is that i get at least a B or an A on my mid-term. That grade is my life right now and if I don't pass I'm going to be so grounded. So pray for me!!!!!!!
