NJHS

Good news! This year I was accepted into NJHS - national junior honor society. They had a big ceremony to celebrate all the new members. When they would call your name you would stand up, walk and light your candle in the "candle of knowledge" then shake hands with the principal and get your certificate. I was sooo nervous! I just knew that I was going to trip, blow out the candle of knowledge and catch something on fire. But when they called my name I was fantastic :)
My certificate!
Waiting in line for my name to be called...


Lighting my candle in the "candle of knowledge"

Shaking hands with the principal

Waiting for all the hundreds of names to be called...standing in tall tall heels... getting burned by the candle wax... Such fun! :)
By the time we were done, someone had accidentally blown out the "candle of knowledge", caught the paper around there candle on fire, and everyone was burned by the hot wax. The things we do for school :)
