I need to do another update. Ugh, it really seems like these days just come and go and I just don't know what to with myself. It feels like I'm doing whatever when I really need to just be focused. Let me do my highlights for the week real fast.
Well on Thursday I had gone to a LASC meeting with a few people from my leadership class and it was a really fun experience. It was held at Meadowdale High School.The purpose of the meeting was to talk about the importance of good sportsmanship and how we can implement it in our schools. It started off with a guest speaker whom I thought did a great job even though it seems seam like he had gotten off topic a bit and I got lost following his analogy but I mostly understood the point he was making. It was really interesting talking to people from other schools and seeing how their schools would treat things. It really made me think of how much I really want to get Cascade more spirited and more excited about things. I know its not going to be an over nigh thing and its going to take a lot of steps to getting there. But in order to make change you need to start somewhere, even if their just getting ideas down on a scratch piece of paper.
Than yesterday (Saturday), DECA had their 2nd Safeway Take-Over. I'm really happy about the amount of people that decided to take part in the event. It really did look like we were taking over. Ha Ha Ha. I know that was a little lame. But I was talking to our advisor and our chapter has seriously grown so much since last year. I had fun walking around and doing the announcements about what we were doing even though sometimes I would flub on it. I thought the best part of it was doing the pie walk because it was fun finding someone in the isle and saying "Hey, you're the winner! You get a free pie!" Overall, I must say that this was yet another successful event that DECA has done. Now I just can't wait to compete in January. Me and Ashley are finally going to start out project on Wednesday, right after we talk to the guy from the Ice Cream Scoop via-phone meeting. But 11 pages will be easy, the hard part will be making sure that we meet the deadline. Eeeek.
As of right now I'm mainly procrastinating by blogging. I've done most of my homework but this habit really does need to stop. Omg, I was checking my email earlier and I've been getting a lot of emails from Universities and its freaking me out cause we're all so close to being in the "real world". Especially after Hasstedt had us filling out college applications, it was like ahh I'll be sending these off foreal soon.
Real talk, the future is here and no matter how much we think its not, it really is..
