What a relief--the school festival is finally over. It was such a hassle, what with me having to help plan for our class booth (as I'm one of the class reps), and help run that, the kendo, and track booths. I'm glad it all went over so well; we had a huge turnout.
I'm still very busy, though, with club activities, kendo practices and class, my running schedule, homework and studying, and commitments to friends. School exams are coming up soon, and then winter break. Times like these make me glad that I'm able to do well at school without attending cram school or studying every free moment. I've even managed to stay in the running for class valedictorian. I have no idea how--must be a miracle or mistake.
On the topic of improbable things, I've finally broken past 5'3". I've shot up two inches over the past month and a half. Unfortunately, it means I have to go clothes shopping now. Noriko's graciously decided to "help" me and go with me next weekend. Truly something to look forward to.
