Loving to Lead

So, I recently filled out an application to be a volunteer at a national youth convention (for high schoolers) through my church...  and well, I'm WAY EXCITED!!!!    I really love big events like this, and it's not even until next summer, and I don't even know if I'll get it.  But, if I do...  it would pretty much be so beyond amazing.  I love having the opportunity to go somewhere I know no one, and experience something new.  I find it soooooo exhilarating.  Even better, I'd be leading discussions, doing crafts, dancing, and maybe, if I'm lucky, I'll get to do a MC-ing (a personal favorite).  I don't even care what they ask me to do, I'll do whatever, I just want to be there helping and meeting people.  

On a less positive note: I'm finding myself quite discouraged by my MCAT study prep.  It's overwhelming.  There is so much to know, and I want so badly to do well.  I know I just have to dig deep, because confidence will pull me through.  However, the more I practice, the more I realize, I don't remember any of this!  It's not a very fun way to spend my summer nights...  

Back to the up beat though--wow, I'm bouncing all over today.  My big research news:

MY PUMP WORKS!!!

My control loop is closed, and I'm off to the ice cream shop now!  I find the maximizing the program part of programming to be my favorite, so I'm way excited about that, not to mention that I can now say I've achieved something this summer!  I think I'll ride that high through my MCAT studying tonight...  ;)

Peace,

Waha

Oh, and I'm aware how I failed English in this post, but I don't care today.
