I took the PSAT on Wednesday. It felt like a breeze compared to the SAT. Math is definitely a strong suit of mine, since I am very confident that I got at least 95% of the math questions right. I would say I got 100% of them correct, although I don’t believe it is wise to make anything 100% if you haven’t gotten the results yet.

That night we went to 4-h and had elections. I have served as secretary for two years in a row now, but this year I had confidence enough to run for president. As I was waiting for the results to come in I looked out at all the kids and you can tell if someone voted for you because they would look up and make eye contact with you and flash a friendly smile. After a wait that felt like eternity, they announced that Taylor Good (me) would be the clubs new president. Yea!!! I have sooo many ideas to help our club; I don’t know where to start.

Today my friend Megan came over. We rarely get to see each other, but I love spending time with her. We have been friends since we were two years old. She is the only friend I have had that long. I wish we could spend more time together. L

Tonight I will start having a small birthday celebration, but most of the birthday happenings won’t be until next weekend. More on that latter.

I just got a Pinterest and if you have one I would love to be your friend. Also if you have any tips on good boards or pinners to look up, I am open to suggestions, Thanks.

Almost 17 year old,

Taylor
