Over the Hill of Freshmen Year

Hey guys this is Mary! Well it's almost the end of the school year and I can't wait till summer break! This year is going by so fast. I can't believe it! At the beginning of the year I was listening to all the seniors talking about how high school went by so fast. Of course I didn't believe it when they said but I'm a believer now.


I know next year the same people may not be here but this year would not have been the same without the people I have met. I am thankful to have people that are going to be around next year also and I am super excited for next year. I can't wait to be a sophomore and meet new people.

          Hey guys, Sarah here! You wouldn't believe all the things I have been busy with! For starters, softball has begun! Softball is definitely my favorite sport. Not only is it my favorite sport, but my passion. I made the varsity team, and let me tell you, being a freshman on varsity is insane. I definitely get teased way more because I'm a freshman. People underestimate me, but when they see me play they don't have anything else to say. 


          Not only is my life insane with softball, I'm also in 4-H. 4-H is a program outside of school. It's great for staying involved in community service, and you can also do certain projects that interest  you. I am in the dog and horse projects, and the 4-H fair is tomorrow! I've been in 4-H for seven years, so this is nothing new, but I always get a little nervous before showing.


          Another thing I am involved in is band and we have performances coming up. I am in the marching band and the jazz band where I play the alto saxophone and the tenor saxophone. I get a little nervous for performances only because in jazz band I have a solo on my tenor. Other than that, it's pretty much nothing new for me. 


          Oh and one more thing Jed failed to mention in his last update. He and I were both awarded at the last school assembly for having the highest GPA of a 4.0. Besides me and Jed, there is just one other person on campus who is still capable of being valedictorian.  Her name is Heidy Martinez, she is a friend of mine. I met Heidy when I played basketball last season. She's a really nice girl and a great friend.


Well I guess I'll keep you posted, talk to you soon!

Jed here! OK so it's been awhile since I posted last. Let's see whats gone on....... band... band.... tennis.... more band.... and did I say band? Yup, band seems to have taken over my life. But tennis has too. I think it's pretty good thing I got going on. Winterline is really great, then again taking first place at our competitions seem to help make it fun too, but so do our little missions. Let's just say shuffling in adiddas and saying "get some" around complete strangers are the two worst things you can do in Bakersfield. 

And our show is completely awesome, killer clowns, laughs, and then to go with it, our colorguard has Alice, and all them are amazing.

So nothing much in LJE or school.... so laters.
