House Captains, Formal and Jenny...

The other day they announced the House Captains for 2009. It was a relieving feeling knowing that Steph won. It was a fun assembly, at the start it was normal, but as they got closer and closer I felt my heart beat get stronger and stronger to the point where I thought that it would beat out of my chest and then my legs went all jelly-like and numb.

I was thinking about it afterwards and I thought yeah, it would have been nice but you know she deserves it. She works hard, connects with girls, is strict when needs be and has more experience than I do. I would however like to thank the girls that checked to see that I was ok, and I would love to tell you that I'm fine...really. And besides, what can I be annoyed at? Really? Steph? or The House? God? Well look at the facts, I can't be angry at Steph because she was in the same position as I was, she was given the same amount of time, and was not advantaged or disadvantaged in anyway shape or form. I can't be angry at the House because after all, I can't make them vote for me. All I can do is do my best and hope that its good enough to win me the position. And I surely can't be angry at God, because He has a bigger plan in play here, and I just need to wait until He gives me the word to go and do His will.



Formal is coming soon, as many of you know. I went to a formal meeting today, and it was better than I expected...alot more civil (I was expecting there to be lots of yelling and screaming and fighting, but there was none. Lots of laughing and deciding fairly, it was like a real democracy). They were finalising the cake and the tree lights. Just general stuff like that. We also decided who should cut the cake, we decided on Mrs Griffiths because she is our year Co-ordinator . At first she didn't want to do it, but after a vote and much building up she finally agreed (It was funny because when we did vote she got slammed because everyone but her put their hands up). But its not as if we get to eat the cake that she's cutting. We have slabs out the back and this is a decorative cake and we think it would be nice if she did. It would show to her that we all don't think that she's evil. I mean she is incredibly nice, its only when she's in year co-ordinator mode that she gets a tad too tense.

Oh yeah and Jenny. Jenny is cool, she's very nice. But extremely quiet, but I can deal with that, I just have to listen harder. But today was a great day because we became good friends. (Pris you may be replaced...no only joking. No one can replace my cake! Do you remember when I would call you that?...I do.) But it seems to be that she is having some troubles with friends, it was really cute because before english she came up to me when we were waiting for Mrs Owen to open the door and she asked if she could sit with me and I was thinking, 'YES! Misson completed.' Only Caitlin would get that...possibly Beth and maybe Flick. But then we were walking to the locker room preparing for 5th period and she got really excited when I said that she could sit with me...oh yeah btw. Guys in my group Jenny will be sitting with us because I said so. She may even come to bible study, but that is still very undecided. We're still hoping though. Any way, Best be off.

Wow, reading over this blog I realised how much I ramble and talk. I wonder if I talk this much normally, or whether its just because I'm typing it seems like more...here I go again. I better get off the computer before this blog becomes a novel or some thing...that would be weird....MUST GET OF THE COMPUTER!!

God Bless...
