Can't Believe It!

Our church is donating money to the kids in Russia and Mexico. Katya and I had decided that since we have a big school, we could probably help our church out. And so we did...


So it all started with just running into the principle one day and telling him out idea. I gave him the flash drive with all of the information on how we are going to do this and at the end of the day, I got called up to his office. At first I was very nervous cuz his room is so big and he looks so serious (although everyone knows that he isn't. :) but the I was like, "Girl, chillax. Nothing gonna happen to you." And that calmed me down. :)

"Ok. So there is one good thing and one bad thing. Which do you want first," he asked me.
I said to him, "Can I have them both at one?"
He was like, "Haha. Ok. Sit down. So I think that this is a very good idea and I think that it will be a success. There will just be a couple things needed to be adjusted and we'll need to have a date of when we are going to start this thing. I was like, "YES!!!" inside my head but I nodded and pretended that I didn't have to scream in order for me not to pop.

"Where's the bad news then?" I asked him.
"I just told you. We'll need a date to start this thing. I can't promise that it will start tomorrow... "
"How is that a bad thing?" I asked. "I am just really happy that you actually agreed and that's it! That wasn't anything bad..." and then he let me go back.

I was trying to contain myself from yelling on the top of my lungs and then getting in trouble so I waited to do that when we had gotten off of the bus.

One week and a day later, December 12, this thing started. The first day we did better than I thought.
Oh wait, did I ever say how we were raising the money? Ok, well for each dollar that they donate, in reward we gave then 2 shipuchki just to make them come back. Lol And it worked.

The next day we earned 4 times more than the previous day!! I was shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I didn't think that that was possible!!! And so we were all runnin' around the house like weird people and being so happy and theeeeeen... the next day came.

Yayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayayay!!!! We couldn't believe it!!!!! We had gotten only like, $2 dollars less than the previous day. :) That's how generous people in our school are. They donate to other people to help them out. (Or they just keep coming back for candy and make their teeth worse. Either way, they are helping us out a bunch!)

Anywayyyy.... so now I have to wait for tomorrow and see what we got there. Hopefully we earn at least something cuz people could be gettin' sick of this candy. Yesterday, don't tell anyone, this one girl ate 20 shipuchka's and I was like, "What?!?!?!" And she was like, "Yep. I'm bringing in a looooot of money tomorrow." and I was like, "Aww. thanks! You are so nice. (And pretty soon gonna be hyper :P )

Anyway, I am so happy that this is working and all and I am very grateful to the people that donated. :D
