He Likes My Name

Well, as most of you know, I am running for the treasurer position in Gear Up. The voting is over and the results will be announced on Monday, October 5th 2008 October 6th 2008, during 2nd period.

Honestly, I can't wait for the results. I really think that I might get the position. It'll be even better if my neighbor and friend Katie is my partner too! (There will be two treasurers.)

Anyway, I don't know how many people have voted for me, but I do hope enough people did. There were 3 people that I did not know very well who came up to me and told me they voted for me. The most recent one was the most hilarious.

The first person was Yin. I was in the hallway and I passed by her. We said a quick "Hello" and I was in a rush to go somewhere (I forgot where). Then she called me, so I turned around and she said "Waverly! I voted for you!" I was really happy when she told me that!

Thank You Yin! =D

The next person was Craig. I just met him this year. We have Mandarin 3 together for first period. We also take Economic together after school. Anyway, on my first day of Economics, I walked in and the first thing Craig said to me was, " I voted for you!" I was like even more happy and I was like "Thank you thank you thank you!!"

Thank You Craig! =P

The last person was Wayne Wong. Funny how I put down his last name too. He's a senior and my Da PengYou's (Anthony's) friend. Anthony every once in a while will talk about Wayne. So, I kind of know who he is. Plus, I 've seen him around. The only thing is that I never talked to him. Another thing about Wayne is that he's like the "genius" of Lincoln High. His whole family is. (That's what people say. I intend to erase that.)

Back to my story. Yesterday, I was walking to YUCA with a bunch of guys and Anagaby. One of things we talked about was our names. We were talking about how unique it was and where our parents got it from and blablabla... you fill in the blanks. All of a sudden, one of the guys (which was Wayne) turns to me and goes... "What's your name?"

Me- "Waverly"

Wayne- "YES!!"

Me & Anagaby- O_o"

Wayne- "I voted for you beacuse I saw your name! It's nice!!"

Me- "What?"

Wayne- "For Gear Up cabinet!!"

Me- "Oooh"

*thinks* It took me a while to understand.
20 seconds later... I get it...

Me- "So, wait, you voted for me because you liked my name?"

Wayne- "Yeah... Didn't I just say that?"

Me- *speechless?*

Me- "...Yeah!... Thanks you thank you!"

End of Conversation

I was really grateful. Honestly. I was really glad even strangers voted for me. LOL
I am somehow flattered as well. Haha. Somehow it was funny too.

Thanks Mom and Dad for giving a cool name!
