8 Years, 1 Month...Emotional times!

This month, I got to start EEE!!!  I was able to get my first choice of classes for my Major-King Tut!  I am thoroughly enjoying learning about archeology and ancient times.  My minor class is Colors, which is also a lot of fun.  I love my teachers, and have friends in all my classes.
We got to have our make up family party too.  It was nice to spread it out.  I enjoyed having everyone over for our birthdays.  Emily and I shared a birthday cake and had our "E" candles to blow out.  During Emily's well-check appointment, I got my weight and height measured as well.  I am 64.2 pounds, and 4' 4 1/2" tall.
Mom is doing the Leader in Me group with 1st graders again and since I did it last year, I get to help her out.  I really enjoy being her helper!  We got to go on the STEAM bus this month too at school, and were able to make our own video game!
I had Girl Scouts a couple of times too.  Miss Sam (one of our leaders) left in an upset way and said, "I hope to see you girls again sometime."  I was very confused and upset by this.  I don't understand why some people leave my life, and I get very emotional about it.
We got to have a play date again at Bella's.  It was nice to see everyone, but I decided to not do the performance with everyone because I decided I had stage fright.  I have been watching Austin and Ally lately, a show about a teenage boy and girl who write music and sing.  I have written two of my own songs-"The Tower of Doom" and "Frankenstein".  Our music teacher really thinks this is cool and is encouraging me to perform it at a concert someday!
I got to spend one Saturday afternoon clothes shopping with Mom.  She calls me a "fashionista".  I just am really getting into finding my own style.  We also went to Jacob's birthday party and I got to play with Corinne.
One Saturday was really busy!  Daddy took me to the library and I picked out a lot of archeology books.  Then, our family took a trip to Hermann to the winery to eat lunch and then play at the park with the Moenkhoff's.  We got to exchange our Christmas/birthday gifts (finally!)  When we got back, Ella invited me to Sonic and we met them there.  They took me to their house for a play date/sleepover.  Ella and I ended up getting into a fight and working it out with Miss Laura.  According to Laura, I am an assertive leader, and Ella is passive and doesn't always speak her mind.  She finally got tired of me making all the decisions.  Mom and Dad and I talked about this when I got back and I know I have some things to work on when it comes to being a leader.  I need to make sure everyone's voice it heard.  I have been pretty emotional lately (sad, mad, and everything in between) and am just trying to assert my independence at home.  That doesn't always go over so well.
