Life is Good ... Huntington and Prom

I saw this sign today and I thought to myself, my life is pretty darn great and we should all just let out a big smile right now to celebrate today! Life is wonderful and if we live life with that attitude, I think that life will be good more often than not.

Just thing about all the problems in this world that would be averted if they had just smiled and figured everything would turn out alright and their lives would continue to be good. Would it actually work? Probably not, but why shouldn't we go after it and try?

Our freshman traveled to the beautiful Huntington Beach High School where they were undergoing construction. With an all-weather track already, it looked as if they were replacing their older one and getting a new one!?!

Why do you need a new one??? Save the money and give it to use so that we can use it!! I guess this is what happens when you live at a school where they have money in the area and they are willing to spend it!

In any case, at the conference we did fairly well! I would have loved to see more placards up more often, however, we won thirty six awards and six best delegates! A pretty good day all in all for MUN and a pretty good sign for the future MUNers of Cerritos High School.

Founder's Hall at Soka University was the location of the Prom this year! The site has quite the amazing exterior entrance with a beautifully lit building sitting in front of a lake that has a walkway that makes it seem as if you are walking on water!

The interior of the site was not as impressive as the outside, mainly because of limited space, however, any dance or event is what you put into it and it sounded like people were enjoying themselves, mainly because they wanted to have a great time!

Towards the end of the night, they announced the Prom King and Queen, David Booy and Kimberly Hwang. It was nice to see Kimberly up there as she started as a quiet and shy freshman and has grown so much over the past four years and has not arrived at the stage of being crowned prom queen! [I will fix my picture, as I was sad that it was crooked.]

In any case, after a big rush at the coat check until about 10:15pm, we were able to do a great job at clearing out the coat check with the help of all the wonderful activities directors and counselors who spend the time to provide extra help in the room to get the bags out to people!

All in all, it was quite the long day and I feel that now it is time to crash and wake up tomorrow morning bright and early for breakfast and church :)
