I remember in grade 9, when I didn't do much. Who does in grade 9? All I did was attend school, go home did homework, maybe went out with Samantha for a walk/Tim Hortons (which we still do today, just not as much). I wasn't involved, I didn't really have anything going for me, as I was only like 14. But then there was grade 10, I was apart of the "Haunted Street Walk" here in Collingwood (which I will admit was really fun), and I stage crewed CCI's school show "Little Shop of Horrors" and that was pretty much it. Grade 11 there was the newspaper, I was assistant stage manager for "Grease" and I believe that was the year that I went to Brampton with the grade 12's, because I was the sound manager for their performance at the Thespian Festival. Then there was last year. Grade 12. Though I didn't have a school show to help with, I still had the newspaper, and I was just starting to get involved with Congenital Heart Defects.
These are some of the things that have happened in the past year:
- I've arranged an assembly at my school
- Created my first CHD awareness video
- Put together Phoenix's Shakedown Crew: Collingwood
- Did the Hoedown Throwdown, TWICE in my cousins restaurant
- Started emailing Jessie

- Had an epic Watermelon fight with great friends
- Fell down rapids

- Met Aaron Pritchett
- Created a website/facebook page/twitter for CHD Awareness, all of which are successful

That's a lot of accomplishments in 1 year. All of this while going back for an extra year at high school, and working part time! Anyways, gotta get some food, before heading to math class...

I can't believe you didn't mention England in there. Life's just going to keep getting better :)
I was going to mention it, but that was more a reward then an accomplishment. The only thing I accomplished was talking my parents into it.
I'd still say it was an accomplishment, not everyone goes to England.
True. But I dunno. That could be another post all together!
