The Inaugural AdventADVENTures Blog By:Crístobol O’Connell

So, yesterday was my birthday and I’m extremely excited. I can now go to jail. I’m happy because my friends’ made me a cake. It reminds me of all the four tier cakes that I have made for friends. I also enjoyed spending time ice skating with my youth groupers.Spanish=Dumb. Who makes valentines for assigned students in the class. I’m a Senior and we are playing 1st grade. Lame. Math=Awesome. I think I aced a test. That will be a first this year because while my teacher is very kind, she grades quite hard.One thing that has been on my mind lately is my responsibilities. I have been working on my Eagle project a lot and, and my college applications are still hanging over my head. I have BOSCMUN (Bothell High School’s Security Council Model United Nations) this week and it isn’t stressful, but I’m feeling a little anxiety if I’m saying the right things. I’m being graded by a teacher that doesn’t even know me. Although, that could be a good thing because my teacher grades down for no reason. It is impossible to get an A in Senior Issues because my teacher will say, “Wow that was the best presentation that I’ve seen all week……93%”. RICIDULOUS. I’m feeling first-rate about it because I am capable of grasping the knowledge needed.I wrote two really good questions for model UN today that were taken from me. I told my partner that she could use one if she wanted and if she needed a second, then she could use the second too. I think she spent five minutes on writing a speech. Opening sentence, my 2 questions, closing sentence. Nice work… Whatever, I guess that just says I’m the stronger student.Still a good day. I hope tomorrow goes as well as today. Alls well, that ends well.
