My Happy Post! :D

The past two weeks have seriously been the best two weeks of my life! The Beauty Review was actually alot of fun and I really liked it. Everyone was so adorable, but the best thing was when the guys came out on stage. They didn't follow directions like they were suppose to, so when the judges told them to turn to their backside, they dropped something, turned around, and bent down in front of the judges so the whole audience saw their butts. Even Coach O'Brein was cracking up.
The robot competition was very intense. Seriously, when I went, I thought it might be boring. But once it started and everything was set up, we all got really into it, yelling and screaming and everything. Me, Steven, Linda, and Olivia were in first place through all 18 rounds. Then we made it through the quarterfinals and the semifinals, which was just excellent! Then Steven made a huge mistake. He picked a chick named Kelly to be his partner because she was crushing on him. Me and Linda and Olivia were yelling at him and everything that he should pick Dalton but he didn't listen to us. That was what made us lose to Amory in the finals. You better believe there were some tears. :'( But boy did our faces light up when we found out that we were going to Disneyworld with them because we were first in EVERYTHING! Plus, it was the fact that our school was the host. So yeah, on April 11, my team is heading to Ackerman to ride the bus with them, and then were all leaving for Disneyworld, which will take about twelve hours. More than likely, we're leaving super early in the morning, like around 2 or 3, and we won't even get there until that afternoon. But we're staying until April 15, which is that Friday, so we get to stay for a whole week! Seriously, that is going to be the best week of my life, mainly because I get to hang out with new friends, make new friends, and if all goes right, I'll get to go to The Wonderful World of Harry Potter! Me and Linda WILL ride the Hippogriff! I don't care if I am afraid of heights! :D
Me, Susan Marshall, Kyle Dahlem, Luke Ellis, Austin Welch, and Richard Clay were on the front cover of the Monroe Journal because of our trip to Jackson on Feb. 2. I was so shocked to see it on the front page! Plus they had our Robotics competition in there also and they had the winning teams. I tell ya, I felt famous for like a week. Also in that week, I found out that the next book in the Maximum Ride series, Angel came out. I was super excited for that, so last Saturday, I asked my mom to get it for me, and I got it. I'm halfway through it now, but I found out there is only ONE more book after, and then the series is finished. But no worries because apparently they are going to start making movies. I still say that Gage Golightly should play Max. She just seems like the perfect choice. I've seen what she can do on The Troop and there is no doubt in my mind she will be fantastic as Max. :)
I got my ACT scores back and guess what I made. Drumroll please.... 19!!!! I was so happy for that score! Yeah, I know I can do better than that, but it was only my first try. Plus, I didn't get to go to the study sessions for Math and Chemistry, so next time it should be an absolute breeze. Let's hope anyway. :D
Tuesday I got accepted into the National Technical Honor Society. The ceremony was pretty friggin' shweet. Me and Jesyca Hathcock and a few of our other friends and even people we don't know were accepted into it because we have been going to Vo-Tech for two years or more years and we managed to keep a 3.0 GPA. I got to see my old friends from second block Robotics that I haven't seen in months. You better believe there was alot of hugging. I have the pictures to prove it.
Thursday, our Scholarsbowl team went to ICC to compete. We ended up losing the third round, but we weren't too sad or anything. We packed up the van and truck and headed to Tupelo to do some bowling. That was fun also because I haven't been bowling in years. The people to go were Me, Jesyca, Malarie Dean, Kourtney Hubbard, Joey Brown, John Rutledge, Danielle Hathcock, Nicholas Sims, and Cody Caldwell. Mrs. Rutledge was the teacher person thingy. We went out for ice cream afterwards and I tell ya, we all just had a great time that day.
So that's about it for my best two weeks. There was probably more but I know that I can't remember it. Anyway, ciao for now! <3
