Super Signers

Way to go hawk athletes!
Hey everyone! At high schools all across the United States, top sports athletes were committing to their colleges through National Signing Day. This happens on the first Wednesday of February each year and it is the first day a high school senior can sign a binding National Letter of Intent for their college. In other words, this is the day where all athletes who have been recruited by a college to play a sport there commit to the college.
At my school, we had 7 athletes sign with colleges. They are going to be attending colleges all over the country ranging from Dartmouth and Boston University in the East Coast to Cal Baptist and UC Santa Barbara in California. It is exciting for me to see my fellow classmates committing to the colleges they will be at next year. Since I am not playing a sport for a college team, I will not hear back from my colleges until the end of March or the beginning of April. So while I am waiting, these athletes can relax because, as of today, they are officially accepted to their amazing colleges.

How do you feel about a signing day for American sports teams? Let me know in the comments!

Hollywood Hangin'

Hey everyone! This weekend was fun, and adventurous, as I traveled up to Hollywood! Hollywood is one of the most renowned areas in California, maybe even in the whole US. It is the center for all motion pictures, as most of the movies and television shows are filmed and made here. In addition, record labels, studios, and radio stations all have headquarters here. Because of this, most celebrities live in the nice areas of Hollywood like Beverly Hills. Its fun to see where all the celebrities live, and if you don't know there are tours to show you! Its a fun day adventure, because I live a few hours away!

While in Hollywood, I went to see the musical Wicked with my National Charity League Class. It was awesome! The musical took place in the Pantages Theater, an old, famous theater in Hollywood. We also saw some sights around the city like the Hollywood sign! Don't forget Hollywood and Vine, the street paved with starts memorializing famous celebrities. It was truly a happenin' place to end the week!




Where do most of the celebrities reside where you live? What's your favorite musical? Let me know in the comments below!
