Post #26 (for 05/13/11)

i cant believe we're finally done with senior yeaaar! although we still have endersession left it still feels good to be done with academic classes. i feel like i finished each of my classes with a good end. i'm a little excited for endersession just because i feel like it'll be fun to volunteer with my classmates. the camping trip was also a lot of fun even if it was supeeeeer hot. i'm excited for what is to come :)

Post #25 (For 05/06/11)

The past few weeks have been super hectic and busy for me so unfortunately I lagged it on my past blog posts :( However, the past two weeks have been pretty interesting. Last Tuesday I took my placement exam at Mesa which is my backup school in case financial aid doesn't help me out very much, and got placed into English honors! Then on Thursday and Friday I visited UC Santa Cruz and University of San Francisco. I thought San Francisco was super cool, I think it would be cool to live there, but I liked UC Santa Cruz better than USF and decided to accept UC Santa Cruz on May 1st and see how much financial aid they will provide for me. I also worked on the inquiry project all weekend and did a LOT of work and was also able to turn in my honors article essay on Monday night. My partner and I are pretty much done with the inquiry project and are just putting our final touches on our presentation speech in order to prepare for the presentations. I'm excited for the school year to be over! And I really hope we win the Commencement Challenge.

Oh yeah, and on Tuesday I went to Sacramento for a day to participate in Teen Capitol Day. It was fun :)
