A Very Busy Semester

   I have returned! I apologize for not posting for over a month - life has undergone some very busy moments lately which has, in turn, prohibited me from blogging. However, I am now emerging back into the world of social networking! How have you all been? Please leave a comment telling me about your life!
   As you may have conjectured, my school semester has been quite busy! This year, I am enrolled in my local community college as well as my high school. Balancing life as a high-schooler, violinist, and a college student is very rigorous. Lately, I have caught myself saying, "At least it is better to be busy than to be idle!" Maybe I have taken that statement a little too far...hehe. :)
   My courses are: English, Microeconomics, Algebra 2, U.S. History, Spanish 3, Orchestra, and regular violin lessons. Although these courses have proven quite challenging, I am thoroughly enjoying gaining more knowledge about all these subjects.
   Another exciting recent development has been occupying my hours as well. This Saturday night, I will be participating in the "Distinguished Young Women of Modesto" scholarship competition. I, along with sixteen beautiful and talented other ladies, will be judged on our grades, our talent, our on-stage question, fitness, and our personal interview. I will post pictures of the event on Sunday afternoon, and will discuss the results. I have been looking forward to this competition for 3 years; it is hard to believe that it is finally happening! Please pray for me, as I can affirm that I will be very nervous. :)
   Thank you for being patient with me, my dear readers. I have missed blogging very earnestly, and am very happy to be getting back into the swing of things. God bless you all today!
