Spring has always been my season. Everything great has always happened in the Spring, and this year should be no exception. However, Spring is also my most stressful season with AP tests and SAT IIs but instead of complaining about my stressful life (which I do quite a lot), I'm going to listen to Dr. B for once and go forth with a positive attitude. [: I see the light at the end of the tunnel (that sounded really freaky).

So I went to the NHS induction last night and it was really boring but it gave me an opportunity to dress up. Yay! I haven't worn a dress in a really long time and I hate wearing pants so...
I had to hear Dr. B give his 30-minute positive enthusiastic attitude speech (again) but this time it really affected me. In the beginning of the year when he gave the speech to all the students, I didn't really pay attention because I felt like the message didn't apply to me. However, after many months of school and stress, I've grown appreciative of the message [: I have to admit...some days I feel as if I'm drowning in a sea of stress (I know I know...cliche metaphor) and want to give up but I've realized that I shouldn't let every little thing bother me and trust in myself to do well. Spring IS my season so you never know...:p

Yesterday was pretty hectic. We had to present our CCA project at 2:30 for the in school competition. Annie and Bonnie forgot the presentation at home because they were working on it last night but we retrieved an earlier copy from their email but had to make new revisions to it during homeroom. Then, we skipped lunch to rehearse our presentation because we couldn't get it to around 10 minutes. After running through the presentation once, we realized that the added mp3 wasn't working SO we had to fix that. [: Luckily, it all worked out in the end and we won the competition. Now, we have to travel to Pitt on April 28 (?) for the actual competition.

Today, I debated for the first time ever. YAY. [: During APUSH, we had a "trial" for the war in Vietnam and I was part of the defense team. We had to prove that the Vietnam War was justified, which is definitely the harder position. How can you justify the bloodshed and deaths when we didn't even win? Anyways, the trial isn't finished yet so we won't know how we did until Monday.

That's all for now. I'll update again when something exciting happens :p (not likely)

Tribute
This is a tribute to my amazing parents, who often say things that make my day.

Texts

From Dad after I forgot to text/call for a day: "Lost and find connie yuan. Female. 17. Last time found at wei yuan house. Since then, we lost contact"

From Mom: "How are you going today. We miss you. Dad said your group was wired. Connie maybe was kidnapped. You know your dad himself is wired. Mom. [I think she meant "weird" [: This was after my dad dropped me off at camp and saw the mob and was freaked out.]

From Mom after I forgot to text again (oops): "Bad pang pang [fatty--my parents' nickname for me]. You lost again."
