I had a wonderful semester. I want to thank God and Mother Mary for helping me a lot with my school. I also want to thank Merissa and Elaine for their helps. I really appreciated your teaching skills. You always spent times by doing search on the computer in order to help us to build our knowledge. Thank to you , now, I am interested in politics and sports. You heped us a lot. When you gave us some vocabularies to make up a story or a dialogue, this practice helped us a lot to memorize the meaning of the words. Elaine and Merissa, you were very nice and helpful. Your goals were to help us to be fluent in English not mediocre. I want to say thank you to my classmatees for their helps especially when we worked together. I will miss you my dear friends. I WISH YOU A MERRY CHRISMAS and A HAPPY NEW YEAR.
May the Lord guide you, bless you and be by your side always.
God bless you, take care.

Today, after getting back to Clavdya house, my aunts and I went to Manathan to visit Liliane. She has lung cancer. We were four to go there. When we got Liliane's room, her daughter asked us to wear surgical face masks because she is fragile to get germs. She could not stop crying when she saw us. She lost her hair. We spent 50 minutes with her. Before leaving, she asked us to pray for her. Her situation is very painful. I hope God helps her to recover from her illness.

Today was terrible for me. When I got back from school, on the bus I realized that I did not have my key with me. Unfortunately, when I got home, I found all the doors locked and I could not do anything. I was under the rain and I was frozen. I went to Elmont Public Library in order to do my homework as I did yesterday. After doing my homework, I started reading a book titled "H.R.H"_ is a novel of the conflict between old and new worlds, responsability versus freedom, and duty versus love, by Danielle Steel. As you all know, reading is one the best ways to built your vocabulary. I would advice you dear friends to spend time even one hour in reading because you will get knowledge from it.

Yesterday,the group of Divine Mercy made the pilgrimage to Washington. I went with them. We went there in order to go to Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. It is one of the ten largest Churches in the world. Catholic Church celebrates Immaculate Conception every December eighth. We went there before the celebration's day because everybody who participated in the pilgrimage would go to work or to school the day of the celebration.We traveled four hours to get the place. I liked the place especially the location of the Statue of the Immaculate Conception. It was very calm and I felt that I was in Heaven. We traveled more than four hours to get back to NY because of traffics. Yesterday was an unforgettable day for me.

The man was so shy and could not say anything.He said before everething started that he would not kneel down to give the engaged ring. He said " if I did that, everybody would make fun of me". After giving the engaged ring, they explained how they met each other. Thereafter,they had a party to celabrate this good event. The party ended at 12 PM and everybody went home.

After listening a God's instrumental song CD that I got from my parents, I felt sad to live so far from them.Until now, I get the same feeling. Every Sunday, when I was in Haiti, my family always had a family dinner. We were sitting at the table listened this CD together during the dinner.The CD begins with a blessing prayer and ends with a thanking prayer. I keep thinking about good moments that I spent with them. I feel unsafe because I miss their affection. Now, I recognize that no one can ever love me as my parents and nothing in this world can take away my love for them.
