I've been getting good grades, doing new things, being more outgoing, and even making some new friends.
Homecoming week...
That's always a fun week at MHS. TPing, spirit days, floats, door decorations, powderpuff, it's pretty awesome and I don't think anyone does a homecoming week like MHS. First of all, us juniors won powderpuff (I played), so that's been like one of the big highlights of my year because that was just really awesome to beat the seniors! And I really love making the floats with my class. We're all pretty artistic and creative, so we always come up with something good! And TPing... who doesn't love that? Really around this area, we're the only town I ever hear of that TPs. That's awesome. But some people get too out of hand, but whatever. (obvious photo creds to David Pickering)Christmas break...
I normally don't do very much, but it's really great to just be with my family and spend some good time together! I love being in the house with the Christmas tree and the other decorations, it just makes me feel so happy. And who doesn't like it when Santa Claus comes? :) And we got two extra days off because of snow.. so that's always awesome.
Coming up for the rest of the year...
Winter Warming week is also coming up, which is also exciting! Not as crazy as homecoming week, but still fun. The Mr. Bulldog contests are also fun to watch at the assembly so I can't wait for that (and to see who the candidates are!) Our class theme is the Wizard of Oz and I'm really excited to be working with that!
The Polar Bear Plunge! This is an event for people to come together in February and raise money for Special Olympics by jumping in a freezing cold lake.. I know, crazy.. but this will be my third year doing it and I'm really excited because this is a great organization to be raising money for. These kids and people are so special and unique and when you see those smiles on their faces when you do something for them it's awesome, so I'll gladly jump in a freezing cold lake for them.. If you would like to donate money, just message or text me! :)Soccer season starts the first week of March! It's like my favorite time of the year because I LOVE soccer and I LOVE my team. It's such a fun sport and teaches so much and you learn so many teamwork skills, which is super important! We put in SO much off season training for our actual season, IT'S CRAZY. But it's so worth it because it just makes us better as a team!
Prom! Since I'm a junior this year, we're planning prom and I'm so excited for it! Although I can't reveal the theme because it's a secret.. I will say it's pretty awesome and it's going to look so great. We're all pumped for it.. so be ready prom goers.
Graduation........ don't even get me started on this one. Half of my best friends, including my boyfriend, are seniors this year, obviously meaning that they will be graduating this year. Which really sucks. They're all going to be going off to college and I know Sadie Fraz is just as upset as me about this.. What we're going to do without all of them here, we don't know.
I guess that's all for now.. It's been a good year so far and there's more exciting stuff coming up!
Stay classy and come back,
Mariah
