OUT LOUD

Friends, family, honored guests...I have news, of a large nature.

Remember that one poetry competition I was talking about yesterday? I believe the term "nervous-making" was used.

Well, I won.

FIRST PLACE.

I am representing my school district in a state-wide poetry recitation competition!

I KNOW. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT.

It's truly surreal. I went, I competed. The next thing I knew, I was getting slapped on the back and high-fived and my hand was nearly shaken off.

I won. I won. I won! I won!


This month has been practically perfect in every way.
