Yesterday I started my MMUN (Montessori Model United Nations) conference in New York. For this conference, I am a member of the bureau. As a member of the bureau, I help lead the committee sessions and volunteer to do anything else needed to keep the conference running. Yesterday I had my bureau meeting to gather the materials we needed for the session and do a little prep work with the other people on my bureau. About an hour after that bureau meeting we had the opening ceremony. During the opening ceremony people essentially welcome all the delegates to the conference, have some speeches, and there is a flag procession. Since I am a Vice-chair I helped with the flag procession. Two delegates that were representing a certain country would carry the flag during the flag procession at the opening ceremony. I was in charge of lining up schools one through ten and guiding them through the flag procession. Other vice chairs lined up school eleven through forty-four. I stood in a specific spot with a sign that said "1-10." Other vice-chairs would bring me delegates whose school numbers were within 1-10. When I got the delegates I lined them up in order of school numbers. It was really helpful having the other vice-chairs bring the delegates because I think it would have been a bit chaotic if I had to do it all by myself. the other vice-chairs also made sure delegates go to their number quickly, so I think the whole process was more efficient because we had a lot of people working together. After all the delegates were lining up all of the vice-chairs walked them to the opening ceremony room. Since I was in charge of groups 1-10 I was one of the first people in the procession and essentially guided all the delegates through it. After getting through the flag processions I started guiding the delegates in the procession to their seats while the procession was finishing. It was really fun to get to walk during the flag procession because I never got to do it when I was a delegate.

Yesterday, my high school had our Lunar New Year celebration. For the past three years, I have been organizing the celebrations. This year, the teacher who supervises my planning wanted to have our celebration with the middle school, so we can get more students involved. I thought this was a great idea, but I was at first worried about how we would accommodate a lot more people in our activities, as we would be going from about 110 people to 180. This meant that I had to purchase a lot more materials for each activity so that all students and faculty could get participate. We also wanted to make sure we all were staying together and really integrating middle school and high school. For Lunar New Year, we always provide lunch, so I thought it would be good to serve food in the middle school, then require that everyone eats in the high school or on the quad. This way, we were all staying together instead of separating into our building. I think that this worked well to keep us all togeth...

Recently, I and the other presidents of the prom committee have been working to finalize all of the plans for prom. I am inc charge of community roll-out, which means that I organize how we present the theme to the rest of the school. I gathered a small group of about 10 students to work on how to present the theme at our school's community meeting. The theme for our prom is Bridgerton, which is a show on Netflix. At the beginning of the show the Queen picks a diamond of the season, so we thought it would be cool to do a prom theme of the season. We had people dress up in different themes like a cowboy, disco, Rihanna Super Bowl halftime performance, college, and Disney. I and a person I am training to take my role next year created a script for the skit that we would do, as well as set up all of the music. We then went over the full script with everyone and made edits and adjustments according. During the community meeting, we presented the skit and everyone seemed to love it. Peo...

Today, I decided to practice doing my makeup. I recently got a new skin tint and primer, so I wanted to test out my makeup with it and practice doing some eyeshadow looks. My makeup skills are not very strong because I only wear it sometimes, and when I do I usually have a friend help me, mainly with my eyes. I started with my base, so primer first, then I used the skin tint. I really liked how they looked and applying them was really easy. I think went on to contour my cheeks and jawline. I felt like I actually did a good job with contour this time because I usually don't put enough and don't blend it well, but this time it looked well blended. I also tried a new blush, which I think looked okay. I generally don't really like how the blush looks on my face, but I think that the blush color I got was pretty nice. After doing the base of my face, I went to work on doing eye makeup. I decided that I wanted to try two different looks. The first I did was an eyeliner look. I us...
