Second Week Recap
Alright, so. Last weekend was spent in the middle of nowhere at a 4-H camp, talking about Jesus. It was really grand. I met a lot of new friends and ate a lot of good food. There were lots of riddles and on-going jokes involved, and fun was had by all.
This school week was only 3 days, then, since we retreat-ed until midday Tuesday. So that made life a little more relaxing. Who knew, though, that three days could feel so long? It seems as if SO MUCH has happened since that retreat.
To start things off: Wednesday, my drama teacher, Mr. Jones, approached me in the cafeteria during lunch and told me that I had been cast in his one-act play! I was completely overjoyed at this news. The play is “Snoopy!” and rehearsals are underway. More specifics on that at a later date.
Another thing that has happened is I’ve started to discover my favorite and least favorite classes. Right now, my least favorite is AP Calculus. Boy, it’s a killer. The teacher is awesome and the kids are hilarious, but I am dying in there. I think my favorite class is AP English. My teacher is really inspiring and I always feel like I’ve accomplished something or learned how to formulate intelligent ideas better after that class.
Here’s something: Lately I have been trying to eat lunch with as many different people as possible. I encourage you to “mix it up” wherever you are, as well. You’d be surprised at how much you can learn from a person just by sharing a quick meal and casual conversation. There are many blessings in disguise.
That’s all for now. Check back soon.
