Well, I have had a fairly busy high school year up until now… it has gotten about 3 times busier.
I am trying to get involved more in my school. I have been in band since last year, and that has been one of my biggest priorities since then. It is one of the most fun things I have ever done. I love everyone in the band; they are all like my family. We have a blast and I wouldn’t quit it for nothing, even if we do get made fun of. : D And all of my Fridays are occupied until December…. Then on to Pep Band! : D
I also have been busy with soccer. Soccer was the majority of my time until last Thursday. I have spent 3 hours a day, every day since school started with the girls. And periodically during the summer too! These girls are indescribable… I love all of them. I don’t know what I would do without them. Dusty is like my second dad, and Jess… well, he’s like my second mom. : D I really don’t know what I am going to do, I am going to miss Jess’s coaching, so I think I am going to do indoor soccer this winter.
I am involved with the Foreign Language Club and the Science Club and have been since last year. I am planning on contributing and participating more in both this year. On November 12 we are going to COSI for Science Club, and Language has a meeting this Thursday, so I will find out what they are doing now. : D
I signed up for art club… but I haven’t heard about any meetings… has anyone else heard anything?
I am also planning on auditioning for the play. I found out that it is NOT a musical this year, so I am extremely relieved. : D
I have started up karate again and I am SORE. I have been doing it for a little over a year now and have had my blue belt FOREVER! My mom and my 9 year old brother are both green belts (The order is white-orange-yellow-purple-blue-green-brown-black). I will be doing karate on Mondays and Wednesdays until soccer starts again. Yippee! I have made a lot of friends in there and I hope I will make more.
I have also going to start Irish Step Dancing tomorrow. I have been in dance since I was two years old… and found that my talents were NOT in ballet. : D) In the “tap” area, I have tapped for 2 years, clogged for 2 (western tap dance… sorta… thing : D) and have Step danced for my third year now. This year’s routine is going to be tough… I can feel it… : D
I am anticipating on also joining Academic Challenge with Jennifer. It sounds like fun, and would look good on a college resume. : P
I teach Sunday School at my church. I love those kids, but they are crazy. : P
I might consider doing track in the spring, but I haven’t decided…. I am really iffy.
Those are just the things off the top of my head… I know that I will think of more later,
Sam
