I arrived home not more than 20 mins ago and I was so tired that I ran home. I'm so numb from tiredness that running did not seem hard at all. Weirdly, I enjoyed it.
Firsy day of school as a senior was pretty plain. I was sneezing the whole time, eyes watery and my whole body feeling drowsy. There was no way I could enjoy it. Actually I been feeling like that this whole day. I did not know how I made it through.
This is how my day went:
Afterschool went DIMSUM with the gang of 2011. As sick as I was I really enjoyed it! Just having fun and eating with the people you're about to graduate with. Hahas. Just more memories in the making!
Then after me and Jennifer went to Bottomline to hand in our stuff. And we did some mini paperwork then made an appointment for our first meeting with our mentors. YAYs for preparing for college! (?)
...and I was still sick
Afterwards I went to work, I did some filing and called it a day. Coming into my 3rd week there I thank God for having such a wonderful Boss who cares about me and is so considerate of my schedule. Thank him for the other employers that are so nice to me. Just prayed that he continue to bless me in that office and he be glorify! While still sneezing away while I was signing out. Someone gave me my FIRST PAYCHECK! I was so anxious to open it..I attempted to in the elevator but stopped myself. I waited till I got out of the building to RIP IT OPEN! AND ..I made $24.70! I didnt even know was I suppose to laugh. But I was still happy and satisfied with what I earned. So far they only paid me for the first week I worked which was only 3 hours and 53 mins and since I just started and am a noob. I get pay minimum wage. But I'm not sweating it! I'm still grateful ! I know as I start working there longer, God is going to make a way.
Later then I went to church to help set the tables and decoration for our Sisterhood 2nd year anniversary. By then I have many comments about how I don't look so good or how I seem kind of pale. In the end took the bus home and now sitting here recording my first day as a senior. There has it pros and cons especially the sniffles. But have to say must be one of the most productive day so far. And I'm hoping to produce more when I get rid of this lil virus in my body.

Also I been thinking a lot about how my Senior year schedule. And there just so much to do in such a little time. One of the program, Boston Teen Prints message me on facebook today requesting me to really think about joining this year. Since I could not last year because of my busy schedule. And I look at my schedule again this year and I still have yet find time for it. Boston Teen Prints is an newspaper by the Boston Globe written by teens for teens. And for a girl who want's to become an journalist someday. This is an great opportunity and a way to practice my skills. But there is debate practice, Advisory Student Council, community service, plus working at the Law Firm ( don't forget college and homework!) I don't know where I can find the time to do it. Each year everyone keeps telling me not to overwork myself and I'm really not trying to this year but it seem like I already have even before the school year started. Inside I feel kinda unorganized and stress.
But all I know what to really do right now..is stand still.
