How I did it
It made me
ecstatic 
How I did it: I was at work, sitting in the grass with the kids I was working with, and we were having quiet, summer afternoon activity time. Everyone was looking for four leaf clovers, and I couldn't find one, so I stopped looking. Then I looked down, and there it was! Read how I did it…

How I did it: I wouldn't say I actually found a religion to fit my beliefs. It was more that I realized that being a part of an organized religion is not necessary. I believe what I believe, and that's all that really matters. Read how I did it…

I graduated two days ago as one of the two Salutatorians of my class. The tie was kind of surprising, being that I only had a class of 205 people. It just doesn’t happen all that often in a small school. As much as I loved high school, I am so happy that its over and I can finally move on and start my life. I can’t wait for college!
