So Gabby says now that we aren't living together during the summer, I need to blog so that she knows what's going on in my life. (I missed so much that I didn't even know she had a boyfriend named Troy!) Mike Chow also said that I need my own blog cuz I take up too much space on Gabs' blog... so here it is, the long-awaited blog, purely for YOUR enjoyment. (Also cuz I'm bored outta my mind.) ::sigh:: What have I been doing with my life recently? I'm still suffering the aftershocks of campaigning. Instead of relaxing like a NORMAL teenager, I have already found 3 jobs offers, and actually going to take all 3! I'm also taking summer school at Rio Hondo. (The only time my trusty car let me down HAD to be on the day of the AP English exam! Ask Allison, she laughed til she peed in her pants... LITERALLY! Okay, well, not really, but she did laugh pretty hard!) With everything going on in my life, I'm still bored. The reason for my boredom all goes back to Campaign-Syndrome. Campaign-Syndrome is something that I will refer to whenever I discover a revelation hidden inside of me that can be attributed to the campaigning experience. I'm still stuck in the mode of having my days start at 6 in the morning and not end until 3 the next morning. People ask why I just don't go out and spend time with friends? Good question... answer: I have issues. I need to be doing things where I can see production, the fruits of my hard work. Am I crazy... perhaps. I'm already worried about next school year. I need an extracirricular to keep me company, cuz apparently spending all my time on my studies would be tedious to me. This is why I'm hoping for a position where I can do a lot in the Office of the President next year. But if I get a small position, I guess I'll still have Mock Trial to fall back on. (Yes, I've been thinking about being reunited w/ my three loves in high school... USB, Mock Trial, and Speech and Debate... Gabs and I are gonna rock the speech world once again in Team Debate! Err... we'll just hike up our skirts a bit, college judges ALWAYS fall for it!)

Campaign-Syndrome... for this I have Kris to thank. I never thought I would be able to do everything. I remember calling Tony the day that I said I would be Kris' campaign manager and confiding in him, telling him that I had taken on a role that I could not handle. Being my life mentor, he reassured me that I would get through this, just as how I have gotten through all the other stuff in high school. Doing all this, I have realized that there are no limits to me, which at times scare me. Is there a limit to me? If so, what is that limit? How much am I truly capable of? This summer will definitely be a time for me to explore my limitations and heighten expectations for myself...
