Ring day was really fun! I didn't realize how big of a deal it really was. I actually did not even register that Ring Day was today until yesterday whenever my mom asked me what i was going to wear and i had absolutely no idea. She actually got mad at me, apparently the clothes i was going to wear had to be pressed and neat and clean and all this stuff, i kind of didn't care. Also, i was not happy when she told me that i couldn't wear a bow-tie. I love them, but after the ceremony i realized that if it isn't black it doesn't look good whenever you try to look nice. I guess i owe her a thank you, she also picked out the tie but i like to think that i have a pretty good sense of what to wear. But anyway, yeah i thought ring day was fun!

I guess we really are almost seniors. It is sort of hitting me that soon, all the things that seniors are responsible for, leading, setting examples, that is all about to be on us. I'm excited! I mean, i don't know that i am completley ready for people to look to me for leadership but i am sure going to do my best,  and i am excited about it! I like the feeling that comes with that kind of responsibility, but i am not sure if i am equipped to handle it just yet. But i am sure that with time it will come. 



P.S. I would just like to say that Mr.McKelvin's speech was absolutely terrific and it was the most memorable part of the entire ceremony.

  1. I didn't even think about having to wear something other than my uniform on Monday until my mom asked me the night before. Other than being unprepared though, I thought it was fun too, and I agree the Mr. McElveen's speech was the most memorable and entertaining part of the day.

  2. I realized in the shower on Monday that I had ring day, but thankfully I had clothes ready in my closet already. I also have noticed that during events like this when we are supposed to be quiet I think everything is funny and spend most of the time trying not to laugh at things I wouldn't normally find funny.
