Busy, Busy, Busy!

As always, I have lots to tell you! October is such a fun-packed month. Last week, the seniors had their Day of Recollection. I had such a good time! We went to St. Joseph's Shrine to gather together in prayer, friendship, and memories. We didn't get back to school until around 5 o'clock. The peer ministry counselors who coordinated the day for us told us that it was our first "last" gathering together as the UC Class of '09! It was exciting but really sentimental at the same time. There were different group activities and discussions for us, as well as free time to spend with our fellow classmates.

Then on Thursday night, as one of my most important ambassador duties, I gave tours and welcomed students and families into UC for our Fall Open House. The school was packed!! It was great to talk to different kids and their families, and to show them what UC is all about. I had the busiest weekend too!! I had to work Friday and Saturday night until 11... I had to take the SAT's on Saturday morning...AND I performed with some past UC Alumni for this dance event in Hamilton, NJ at the Grounds for Sculpture. It was an interesting experience, and I'm really glad that the choreographer asked me to join her with 2 others to perform a modern dance that was site-specific.

We had a Pink and White Tag Day this week to honor and remember those with cancer. Little pink pins were also sold during lunch. Progress reports are going out, so that might be a wake up call to some people! Or, to others, it will reassure them they they're doing good, and encourage them to keep up the good work. I think I've been doing pretty alright... but there's always room for improvement. We'll see how I do!

I think the biggest event for me right now is that the spring musical auditions are on Friday!!!!!! You don't know how nervous I am..... I'll save the "PAC talk" for my next blog though. There's so much going on to look forward to - like college visits, the Junior/Senior Trip to Philly, and the Fall Pep Rally!! I just can't wait.

Hope everyone's having a great week! See Ya :-)
