¿Mi momento de fama?

"If you stick around long enough, they'll take your picture!" said my mom, laughing, as we looked at the newspaper yesterday . . .

Hehe, I don't know about other clubs, but from what I've gathered at my local Rotary club, we usually have two or three "Rotary Students of the Month" who are selected from the high school as high achieving students. They are recogninzed at our Rotary Club, attend meetings for the month, and give a small speech at the last meeting of the month. In addition, they get to have their picture in the Newton Daily News.

Well, I was not a Rotary Student of the Month. "Then why are you explaining all this?" you may ask. Actually, I just happened to come to the weekly Rotary meeting the week that March's students of the month were photographed for the NDN.  So when I was asked to join in the photo, I agreed hapilly!



From left to right: Min Hua (she's an exchange student from Taiwan!),  Newton Rotary President Tom Mott, Dylan, Jenna, and me, "the Rotary exchange student to Spain."
