I'll be the only freshman at regional scholars' bowl
and that is no small feat

playing my flute and cheering them on
doing it my way
an econ test on Friday
and a pep rally, oughta be fun
physical science test yesterday
pulled out a ninety-one
not much time to myself this week
gotta go conquer the world
sometimes it's easy to forget
I'm only one girl

You know what's funny? I opened this poem and then had to get up real quick to attend to something boring old people attend to *laugh* (I realized I had to turn on the radio...was missing my show) and I was standing there, finding my station, thinking, "Did that first word say 'forensics'?" And I was like...nah...then I came back and lo and behold...it so did :-D That makes you my favorite writer today. Not one other person can compete today. Well done, this.

[Ahmad Cox]

You are truly amazing but I love how you show that you can be an excellent student and still be your own person as well.

[Annabelle Lee]

thank you.

[Ahmad Cox]

You actually remind me a lot of when I was younger as well. I was on the honor roll and was in the marching band and did sports and was even the president of the physics club but I was never really popular or went out and partied or got drunk or even experimented with drugs as a teenager. I spent more time sitting by myself reading and feeling like I must be an alien becuase every one else feels so strange

[Annabelle Lee]

then that,my friend, is where we differ.for in al reality i am very goood with people. Sometimes entirely too social. I'm outgoing, there are just parts of me less bold, that people choose not to see.

[Ahmad Cox]

Well now that I am older I am very outgoing and I love to talk and to share my love and joy with others. Some of my friends refer to me as tigger because of my bouncy energy and bright bouncy personality,
