Today was my last day of Student Council for this year. It's been crazy... the reaction I've gotten from my classmates about how inspirational I have become. I didn't really understand it until I read my validations and they were like a million times better than the ones I've gotten the last two years. There was a recurring theme of me influencing others to be their self, a strong faith, and doing so much in general. People also love my awkwardness and creepiness?! That's a first!
Like over the last 13 weeks, I have become SO close with many people who had just been acquaintances before the tri. I am so glad that I took the chance to get to know them all because it has totally been worth it. I really have seen a change in myself this tri - and a good one! Today was the best day I've had in weeks.
The most rewarding part of this all is that everything that I've been working toward for three years is finally paying off! Going into high school, I had two major goals in mind: to make my name known at Caledonia (for good things of course), and to be involved in as many lives as I can... I am so blessed to have all the friends I have from Student Council, my classes, the musical, swim team, and church. In the validations I got, some people started listing off all of the things I do (like NHS, church, SC, etc.) and even I was surprised to hear it all! I couldn't believe that I actually do that much!
For the first time in awhile I feel completely appreciated and important. I feel SO blessed. I feel so insanely loved.
