Crazy crazy crazy. Life gets busy, DECA is taking over my life. It really is a good thing I have a passion for it or I would be dead from stress or something. I've spent everyday the past two weeks after school in the computer lab working on my State Officer Application. From this experience I have learning that I get distracted very easily. It really is a good thing we aren't allowed to get on Facebook at school or else I would get nothing done. I've also learned that you have to be patient with yourself or your just going to be upset with yourself. One last thing I learned is that my mom knows everything. She is the most amazing woman I know. Wow, like you tell her things ranging from schoolwork to growing up to outer space to church topics and she knows everything. I love my mom so much. She is seriously awesome.
One really awesome thing that has happened is I received a Valentine's gift last Thursday from a wonderful missionary :)... Haha he sent me a unicorn pillow pet :) How cute is that? He informed me that I was not allowed to open it until Valentines day so.. I waited. It honestly was the hardest four days of my life!! (that's over exaggerating a bit..) I'll take some pictures and put it on here sometime. I was been really good about not opening it even though there has been some really close calls. My mom has helped me out. She'd tell me "Michelle, now how do you think Ben would feel if you opened it early?" She makes me feel guilty, but I'm grateful because I know I would've been upset with myself if I opened it early. Well, just another reason to love my mom. :)
The Valentine's Dance just happened at my school though. It was weird some of the time, but fun the rest of the time. We went to SubZero, it's this ice cream place in Centerville where they freeze it with liquid nitrogen. It's fairly entertaining to watch. Then we went to a girl in my groups house and played monopoly. I've never really been patient enough with that game at all. But the We ate dinner at my grandma's house in her big party room and had breakfast.. A little backwards I guess but it was still good :)
