Seriously, I couldn't be happier right now. :)
Friday night was the Woodbury/East Ridge basketball game, and it was seriously one of the highlights of my senior year! We ended up beating Woodbury by one point, and it was AMAZING. I know all the Woodbury kids are bitter about it, but hey, it's just a game!
When I got home from the game, I baked a red velvet cake for the speech meet, in celebration of my coach and my previous English teacher are having a BABY! We are all just so excited for them, so I figured that it would be fitting to make a cake! Except I was up until midnight making it and had to wake up at 4:45 on Saturday morning...
Then Saturday...well Saturday was awesome. We had the speech meet at Apple Valley, which was the toughest meet we go to through the season. I ended up making finals and placed 7th out of 8 finalists for informative. Yes, I know what you're thinking...7th? That kinda sucks, doesn't it? NO. NOT ONE BIT. Because I was up against some really great competition and my regular round scores were awesome, one of which included a perfect score of a 1100! (1st place, 100 points) So it was a really wonderful day. Then some of us went to Applebee's and then a friend's house. So all in all, I ran on four hours of sleep on Saturday and ended up having a super long day.
Then today...today was wonderful. We had rehearsal for our SEC band with a director from Luther and he was SO fun to work with. To me, it's so great to be able to come together with a group of kids my age who all are there for the same reason: to make wonderful music. Oh, and it also kind of helps that I got asked to prom today at rehearsal..... :)
Alright, well, I should probably get ready for bed, since I have a 14 hour day of music making ahead of me tomorrow at SEC! I'll post after tomorrow :)
Much love,
Annie
