Alyssa (!!best article writer!!) Congratulations with your award! You really deserve it!

What was your first reaction when you saw you had won an award? I was completly shocked! I kind of forgot about everything for a minute and then it set in. Leah was sitting beside me and I actually hugged her! She was kind of freaked out by that.

How do you like writing so far for the newsletter? I love writing for the newsletter. I love having people get to read my poems. I also like it because it is another creative outlet for me.

Do you also write in a school newsletter or some other kind of writing thing? No, I am not. I would have loved to but I have a full class schedule and writing for the Echo (The school newspaper) takes up two of my class schedules. I tend to go for the afterschool activities. I do alot of work now for the theatre department as a "Techie" I help build props. We just finished work on our latest play, "Tartuff: Born Again" I can't wait to see how it turns out!

Any last words to everyone who has voted for you? Thank you guys! I love this guild so much!

And what's your new years resolution for this year? Or what are your wishes? My New Years resolution is to try and be a more active member in the guild. I love the guild so much but I rarely have time to come and chat with everyone! Hopefully everyone will see a little more of me this year!
