Back at SEGL!

So yesterday most of us got back to SEGL. Some people got back today, and there's still some getting back later today... I think.

Today was our first school day back. It was really good. During Ethics and Leadership in the morning we talked about our Social Venture projects in more depth, and we're starting to work on our Ashoka worksheets. Ashoka Youth Venture gives our organizations money to help start them up if we do all the required stuff, which is pretty cool.

I'm pretty excited about my idea, and feel like it's finally coming along :)

We're starting finals soon which is ridiculous!!! What?!?!?!? I can't believe it! Finals soon and only 3 more weeks!!! AHHHHH!!!!! But I'm trying to live in the moment and not think about it...but still!!!


P.S.
While I was back in Needham for Thanksgiving Break I was on this show thingy talking about SEGL and Civil Rights. That night, it was Richard Cole and I on the show. Richard Cole is a super cool Civil Rights Attorney in Massachusetts who started the safe schools initiative and is a member of the Massachusetts Supreme Court. It was awesome to meet him!
