High School Happiness Part Two

Yes, oddly enough, going back to school, starting my senior year, falls under "happiness" not "horrors." An interesting twist to my usual school starting attitude.... You might remember my post from a year ago, informing you of all the horrors that Junior year was going to bring me. Well, it didn't disappoint. Last year was one of the hardest my very short life, so I decided to give myself a little break-have a little fun with school.
Here's my schedule:
A-Cantori/Show Choir
1-Seminary
2-English 101/102
3-AP Gov
(with the best teacher known to mankind!)
4-Student Council
(Director of Staff and Student Recognition)
5-Honor Choir
6-Sports
but swim isn't till after school so I actually just sit around for an hour-LOVE it!
Holler at your right-brained girl!!!!!
Just thinking about my schedule makes me smile-no math, no science!
I mean, I'll probably pay dearly for this once I get to college...but for now, for once in my life, I'm living in the moment and trying not to get to far ahead of myself!
Goals for My Senior Year
1. Straight A's
2. Swim my 50 free under 39 seconds
3. Sail past Superman
4. Be a friend to everyone-especially people who are having a rough time
5. Finish the Book of Mormon
My Theme Song for the Year: Dynamite by Taio Cruz
"I throw my hands up in the air sometimes.
Saying ay-oh, gotta let go.
I wanna celebrate and live my life.
Saying ay-oh, baby let's go."
This is my year-and nothings going to hold me back.

High School Happiness

Believe it or not, there is such a thing!!
Thank goodness.
In fact, this year, the happiness has been equal to or MORE than the horrors, which is amazing! I think it's because even if you have less happy than horror, the happy means more, thus creating equilibrium.
Wow big word.
Okay moving on to the point.
Picture this with me. It's Tuesday, the last full day of the school year. Wednesday and Thursday are both final days which means half day. So Tuesday was the last day I would see EVERYONE. So how did I want to be remembered? Just look at the pictures. Bo Lao Shi-the most patient, longsuffering, and otherwise awesome Chinese teacher ever!
Brother Sell-greatest seminary teacher known to mankind.

Now here comes the story:
It's Tuesday circa 6:45 am.
Last day of A-hour seminary.
But we weren't having a lesson, just chillin' signing yearbooks etc.
Me, Ed (Steph), and Hannah are sitting there wondering aloud where in the world Karla is because she PROMISED she'd come.
So I comandeer Hannah's phone so I can give Karla a piece of my mind.
And she claims to be landing her mother ship at seminary in approximately 15 minutes.
So I say, "let's jump on her when she gets here."
And Hannah, being BRILLIANT, says
"I still have those dress-ups in my car from the anti-prom party."
(Another post soon to come.)
"We should get dressed up and jump on her!"
So we got dressed and waited.
Ready to pounce.
And pounce we did!
I think we almost gave poor Karla a heart attack, but it sure was fun!
Anywho, we promptly got Karla into a stupid outfit.
Then we all made a pact to wear the clothes for the.entire.day.
YES!!!!
And we decided to keep our motives a secret.
If someone asked Stephanie why she was wearing her outfit, she said "Ask Karla"
If Karla was asked, she said "Ask Natalie"
If I was asked, I said, "Ask Hannah"
And if Hannah was asked, she said "Ask Stephanie"
It took everyone till about third hour to get that it was all a huge loop.
It was seriously one of the greatest days of the entire year.
Bless dress-ups forever and ever.
Amen.
