Time Flies
I can't believe it's the end of September already! Where did this month go?! It's funny, because when everyone's in school, they say the actual school days go by soooo slow... ("It's only third period?!?!") But to me, the weeks are flying by! I guess it's because I never have a dull moment now. I'm always busy with some thing or another!
Last week, like I had said, were the 8th Grade Days of Recollection. I was one of the leaders for Sacred Heart. (here's a shout out to all my new Sacred Heart friends! haha). I was also one of the four senior speakers - I wrote a speech about having a relationship with God. The other speeches/areas we talked about that day were decision making, friendship, and self-acceptance. I think the day overall went well - it's great to connect with the 8th graders and talk to them about what the high school life is like.
Hmmmm, what else... Oh! Did I ever mention that I've been taking voice lessons? I started a few weeks ago because I want to prepare for the spring musical auditions. (Yes, already!). The auditions are next Friday - October 10th. I can't believe it's so early!! Well, actually, I can - Since we're doing Into the Woods this year, I know we're going to need ALOT of preparation! Since I didn't make the fall play, I really really hope to get a part in the musical. I've been in the musical all three years so far... it's just what I love to do! I've been really thinking about what song I'm going to sing. It's gotta be the perfect fit for me!
The dance last Friday was really fun. I was surprised to see how many people were there! Sometimes alot of the upperclassmen don't go, but not my class! We wanted to show our school spirit, because it's the last Welcome Back Dance we'll ever get to go to. It was so hot in there, but we all danced the night away. My friends and I were really tired, but still managed to go to the diner afterwards for a quick bite to eat. It's our senior year - we gotta make all the memories we can!!
Well that's all I have for this week. Talk to you soon!
