Today was my last school day at Kinkaid. Kinkaid has taught me a lot in the past two weeks. All the students were very nice to me and were kind of sad that I was leaving but I represented St.Benedict's really well and thats what Father Ed always talks about. Also, most of the students where very eager to know about how good our athletics are. Tomorrow I am leaving my host family and I will see them in New York when they go to visit in two weeks. I gave them two gifts as a symbol for having me in there residence. They really liked the clock that my dad bought them (it was from Brasil) and a Statue of Liberty.

Today all my classes were reviews for tomorrows test. I had a good day overall . All the students that I met here are all sad that I'm leaving. I really would stay more time here if I could , however, I can't . I learned a lot about critiquing an arquitecture project.

       Today my classes were really relaxing. I had 2 free periods and the rest where really just reviews for finals. I am so excited for today because my host family is going to take me to a Baseball game and I will take pictures. I thought that the history class that I'm taking now is way more useful than the one offered at St.Benedict's. All of the students here are on top of their academics and usually have loads of homework each single day.

Today I went to school like usual. I went to my classes and met some cool people. I also went to Roberts baseball game, eventually they lost. I enjoyed watching the game and the parents were real nice to me and asked me a lot of questions. Tomorrow is a big day because I'm going to a Astros game ( professional baseball) and it should be fun.

May 6th

       Today was a very exciting day for me because I went to various places. First, I went to the johnson space center and had a lot of fun there and I took a lot of pictures of various things. I learned a lot about the astronauts and how they survive in space. The highlight of my day was when I went to a space simulator and see how it really is while flying. Than my host family and I went to a neighbors get together and that was pretty fun as well.

May 4th

Today in school was a day where all the seniors skipped without getting permission. In most of my classes I just relaxed and went on my laptop. I learned a lot in history class about the World War 2. Im excited that its a Friday because I'm eager to explore more about the downtown Houston. Most of the people ask me what St.Benedict's Prep is like and I say good things as usual. Kinkaid's campus is very big and today was the first day that I got to all of my classes without asking anyone for help.

May 3rd

Today was the calmest day for me. I continue to get asked if I have ever met the Jersey shore cast! Today was the first day that I tried some goat sausages. They turned out to be really good. I really like their lunch compared to ours. I really like how people think that I'm nice and cool. After school I went to the gym and played some basketball with some of Henry's friends. Once we got home I went to my room and changed into more comfortable clothes and then went to play some Ping Pong. I went to go watch Roberts little league baseball game and that was really exciting. My host family continues to be really nice to me and they even asked what I wanted to do this upcoming weekend. That is basically how my day went today.

May 2

       Today was a very productive day. I got to meet more cool people and I also got to hang out with them a little bit more. During Architecture class I learned the real meaning of what architects do. In AP Chemistry we made some ice cream and just had some fun. I found this school way different than St.Benedicts because Kinkaid is way more organized and clean. In most of my classes the students are very smart and respectful. I had a free period because the History teacher was not here so I just went on my laptop. My host family always asks if I'm hungry or if I need anything , I think that they are very nice to me and so are the 3 boys ( Henry, Michael, and Robert ).

   Today was my first day at Kinkaid and it went well. I was nervous because I didn't know what I was walking into. The students there are very smart and nice. I made a lot of friends in the first day of class and hopefully I make more friends in the next couple of days. My host family is really nice and cool , I surely will enjoy these days at Kinkaid.
