Subtleties

I have noticed lately that I have the ability to notice a lot of things about people that most other people never really notice. For instance, I am able to see when people are struggling, even if they put on a happy face and try not to show it. It pains me to see people hurting inside because at one point in my life I could relate, but now I know that there is more to life than problems and we just have to look past them. I am also able to notice when people just need someone to talk to or when someone just needs another person there with them. I can also tell certain things about people that I know just by looking in their eyes. Weird, I know, but it is true (at least I think so).

Okay, a little update on the schooling. I am the Vice-President of Debate Club, running for Vice-President of Spanish National Honor Society, and in the fall I will be running for President of the Music Department of MHS. I did not win the elections for Treasurer of NHS, but that is completely fine. In fact, that might even be better because now I can run for President of the Music Department.

I am also waiting for my mother and father to decide whether or not we will all be going to Utah and changing all of the plans for the summer. I really do not care if go out to Utah because then we would be able to go to Cali for my first time! However, I really do want to do a great High Adventure event and Youth Conference for the stake. -B

Senior Prom(s)

The past two weeks have been rather busy.

After prom, not much happened, for a while that is. One week flew by, and now the second week flew by. My AP Language and Composition gave her resignation notice to the school and she will be leaving the Milford school system in June. I took the ACT exams on April 12th, they were a little bit more difficult than I thought they would be. I also aced my two big Spanish tests last week, I also aced the hardest test of the year in Anatomy (the test on the brain and the nervous system).
I was also elected the Vice-President of my high school's newly started debate club. I am helping to get it going so that it will be even more popular in the years to come. I had a National Honor Society meeting today, and I am running for the position of Chapter Treasurer. The elections will be Monday , April 28th and then I will find out whether I made it or not.
I am also going to run for President of the National ure & Languages Honor Society (something to that extent). I really would like to be the President, not to mention it would be a lot of fun.
