A Big Trophy

So we had a fencing awards dinner tonight, and I got an award for "Most Improved JV Fencer"! This basically means that I'm being seriously considered for varsity next year, even though I have added another weapon to my repertoire (I am now both foil and epee).

On another note, the dinner was long and repetitive- There were a HUGE number of awards, bad quality videos, and long winded speeches. It went about an hour overtime. However the food itself was nice and everyone was very nice and my fencing seemed to have preceded me.

Also two of my poems got accepted into Guildscript, the literary magazine at my school. I attend the writer's group every week and was very pleased when two of my pieces got in. Now I have a meeting with the advisor to edit them and talk about placement and such.

This is what I wore today- I was going for dressy but not fancy- comfort was key because of the hours spent sitting in those uncomfortable chairs.

  Skirt: Modcloth

Blouse: Forever 21

Cardigan: n/a

So all in all a very good day.

Speaking of, let's try to get the comments going! How was y'all's days?
