~Journal 1~ Acceptance I can't explain how excited and ecstatic I was when I heard the news of the contest to enroll into Shinkami. It was a blessing, no doubt about that, and eagerly I took up the chance to enroll into the one school I wanted to enter more then anything. I have always had an interest in angels...and before the contest I never really got to express my knowledge of the angelic hosts. It was a miracle when I read the questions to the contest and found them all to be about the heavenly hosts! I did my best. I don't claim to be an expert, in fact some questions gave me quite a bit of trouble, but in the end I'm very glad with the results. This is a dream come true!

~Journal 2~ First Day on Campus The school is even more amazing then I had ever imagined. And this is putting it lightly! I've already met a few very interesting people, including one teacher and a few other students whom I'd like to get to know better in the future. Zach and Jaden are their names; and both are very unique. Zach seems to be rough on the outside, but really he seems far more relaxed and gentle on the inside. Or at least this is how it seems thus far. As for Jaden, well, he's very impressive. I wonder if he can help me learn a bit of Elvish soon. All in all, I hope to get to know a little more about them, and learn more about the school I am so thrilled to be in.

~Journal 3~ Accidental Discovery I didn't know a mall existed! I must say, this place is huge and has every store imaginable. Along with Jaden and Zach, we roamed into the building on accident searching for our dorms, but instead of leaving we felt it would be far more entertaining to search through the mall to find a few places that would help us later on for school purposes. And that's how we ended up at the book store. I must say I've never been more impressed with a selection of books before. Their books in Elvish are espeacally interesting! I wonder what else we'll find while here.

~Journal 4~ To China and Back "Though the youth was exiting one adventure he thoroughly believed he was beginning another. The past few days had no doubt been intense, however the longer he had to think about each instance the more he questioned the impact every person had on this amazing journey.
Along the way he had come to know friends, make interesting acquaintances, understand family ties among the travelers, and analyze the bonds that were forged. No doubt he wanted to carry the emotions he formed with him back to the school and there only hoped for continuing the friendships he made.
They all lived, though battered some where, and that alone gave the youth a sense of accomplishment. Had they achieved the goal they had set he was not sure and after their fiasco previously he didn’t know the impact of what was to come. From the beginning of their journey he had questioned why he had traveled along and despite not having the answer now he didn’t once regret his choice. If he had somehow accomplished helping the people of China through some minor exertion of his own then he was happy. And certainly he didn’t regret the experiences he had with the people he traveled with.
His only reason for going was to help those who needed it.
Maybe one day he would see the result of their efforts on a wider scale. Maybe one day he would once again revisit the land and this time around know how to act upon the problem instead of following the example of others. And maybe one day he would have a broader understanding of the world around him and everything within it.
Whatever was to come, he was proud of what had been. " -Direct quote from megaplot

~Journal 5~ Friendly Meetings Soon after the return from China two new students were accepted into the school. It was really exciting, and everyone was talking about them for the longest time. It was a while before I actually met them, both on separate occasions. One by the name of Scyeth, was pretty cool; he ran into each other (quite literally) in the halls one day and he seemed really nice. He seems to me pretty competitive, and even suggested creating a soccer team for the school. I personally think it would be great for all of us to get together a few times out of the year to get away from our busy schedule and do something fun. The other student, by the name of Micajah, I met around the same time along with Nathaniel. Both are extremely interesting and intellectual people. I'd love to get to know all of these students more in future times.

~Journal 6~ Sandcastles and Waterballoons Summer has finally started to slow but that doesn't mean there wasn't time still for some magnificent summer fun! And at the beach! The school held an event on the shores of the island and quite a few of us got together. I managed to create a great sandcastle and even a friend of mine, RuiZhi, helped me. It looked fantastic if I say so myself. Scyeth was there as well and had quite an interesting time ambushing people, spraying them with a water gun or anything he could get his hand on. A few times I even picked up a water balloon and tossed it, all in good fun of course. It was a great time, something certainly memorable.
