Good News!

These past couple of weeks have been full of glad tidings of great joy!  

First I got a superior (the highest rating) at my piano competition including a trophy and fifty bucks.  

Then, I got a 4.0 for 3rd quarter when I thought for sure I wouldn't.  

Next I went to State competitions for FBLA.  My team did awful on our event so we were planning on tenth place.  When we weren't called for tenth we were happy to get ninth.  But then they didn't call us for ninth!  Or eighth, or seventh or sixth... by now we were sure we would get fifth.  But no!!  We didn't get fifth, and we didn't get fourth, or third!  We got 2nd place at state as a team of sophomores and now we get to go to Nationals in Disney World!  It is a costly trip though so I would be happy to babysit children, clean houses, and perform any other tasks to help fund the trip :)

Lastly, I auditioned for A cappella Choir (a.k.a Concert Choir) at my school and made it!  Wahoo!  I am going to try out for Madrigals for experience but I'm not planning on it.  I am satisfied with A cappella and I'm looking forward to next year!!

I feel so blessed to have such a great life!  I just hope a lot of bad news doesn't follow my good streak!
