Lesson of the Day

The other day we had 70 mph wind (new record for us yayy haha). So we couldn't let my 5 lb dog outside.  haha. This past week has been odd without Tasha and Ashley in my classes. I'm glad they're recovering. Pray for them please!
Also! Great news! Last year my teacher, Mr. Riley encouraged me to enter a national essay competition... AND I WON FIRST PLACE!! yay! When Mr. Riley told me, during health class, yes he totally barged in, pointed at me and said "you won first place, baby." And of course I started crying. That's how happy I was! I won an ipad! (haven't got it yet)
Well today all my classmates were in a debate against me. Every. Single. One.
I was alone! And stubborn me, I knew for sure that I was correct! They were saying that the Albany Conference and Albany Plan of Union happened AFTER the French and Indian War! NO!! It was clearly before the war! After a couple ten+ minutes of debating my teacher announced that I was correct. Yesss! Victory! Lesson: Never doubt yourself. Even when the world is against you.
