Summer Update

So, it's been a rather eventful summer in current events. I'm not sure I still agree with the picks I made below on the Veeps that Obama and McCain will choose. I mean, I'm pretty sure McCain's pick is what I predicted, but not Obama's.
That just shows how this summer has been: some things have surprised us, but some things have been perfectly predictable. We were shocked and saddened when Tim Russert died. But while we were blown-away by China's impressive Olympics display the first night, who couldn't guess that China wouldn't go all-out with the Olympics that's been billed as its "coming-out party"?
For me, it hasn't been a particularly eventful summer. I had a good graduation party, I got to re-unite with some old friends, and de-stress after two years of the IB diploma running my life (and two years before prepping for it). I got decent IB scores, and won another writing contest.
But now I'm going off to college, which means I should have a bit more to write about, as there will be likely more things going on in my life. Stay tuned!!!
