Update.
It's been an insanely busy two weeks, I would go so far as to say the climax of Senior year, and really the climax of high school.
Thursday, April 22, was Mr. SHS: The Bachelor. 17 Seniors competed for the title. The contest included a dance, beach wear, formal wear, and a talent. It was so much fun to put on and to be a part of, and I'm so glad I was one of the contestants. It really was a great crowd; I could hear many people shouting my name and various things about me. My favorite was Erin Feinerman's "Danny is my Favorite Mormon!" I could hear her over all the rest.
Tuesday, April 27, was the opening of the A.P. Art Show. I had been waiting for that night since 8th grade. I will put pictures up as soon as I get them. It was honestly one of the best nights of my life.
Monday I set up the show, which was absolutely insane. Tuesday it was open all day, which was fun. I had a book for people to sign, and I got the nicest comments. Thank you everyone who left me a note!
Tuesday night I got all dressed up and got there early. As soon as the reception started I was bombarded with people. It was amazing. Ms. Goldman, my first art teacher whom I hadn't seen since 4th grade came. My entire youth group came. People from the ward came. Heather came. Friends came. Neighbors came. It cerainly was quite the night. I was very exhausted, but it was so wonderful.
My show featured 7 pieces ranging in medias from colored pencil to paint. The show stopper was the 99"x54" oil painting called Hosanna:Parting the Veil. I wish you all could have been there to see it.
Now that it's over, I am really sad. I almost don't know what to do with myself, but I'm still too busy. I had to take down the show Thursday, and then this past weekend Jonathan spent with us. We're still awaiting our verdict.
Tomorrow I teach Seminary, which I'm excited to do since it's on the Book of Daniel. I can't wait to dive into chapter 10 . . . .
then A.P. tests, Prom, Graduation, Work Work Work, BYU.
