Catching Up on a Little Bit of Everything

I know I haven't written much lately but it's just that time of the year that gets very busy. My time has been mainly filled by Pacesetters and maintaing my school work before the end of the year. Our Pacesetter spring show: Best Seller, is on April 15th and 16th. We have been getting ready and working on all of our dances nonstop. Our show is my favorite part of the year. You truly realize how much the team means to you and how much you will miss the seniors in the following year. I have become so close to the seniors and next year will be very different. Not only will there only be 11 seniors, we are the seniors. Third year senior is the highest rank you can have in Pacesetters without being an officer. It is a big honor to be a third year senior. I have also been busy getting ready for the ACT. I had missed writing and had a little bit of down time so I decided to write. I've missed blogging and hopefully even through the stress of these next few weeks I will have time to write.

Have a good day!

SB 2011

This spring break has been fantastic so far.  I have spent time with my friends, had a chance to relax, and now I am in Steamboat Springs, Colorado with my family for a ski trip. We used to come every year and this is our first time back in five years.  Today was our first day on the mountains, and it is just as amazing as I remembered.  The wind in my face, winding down the mountains, and feeling the burn in my legs; there is nothing like it.  I love skiing and forgot how much I missed it.  So far this has been an amazing trip even though its only day one! I'll write more later in the week!

I Wanted to Be Their Girl

I know I just wrote about my love for being a Brandeis nom, but as the days continue I think of more I can say about it. For this one thing I really had thought it was mine. The boys said they loved me and that I would be an amazing sweetheart, so like anyone else, I thought that I would be their girl. Decked out in red and black every Saturday night and Sunday, I couldn't think of anything else I would have rather been doing. Pulling an almost all-nighter with Jackie baking for our boys, there didn't seem to be anything else in the world I wanted to do. I pictured us baking every week together and talking about how our boys were. Now I can sit back and help Jackie bake, watch her get ready, listen to the stories, and be more proud of her than anyone else, I still wish I was standing by her side in my own colors baking for my own boys. With sablosky being troublesome right now, I can take over the title as
President and help my home grow. Although that sounds like an amazing opportunity, which I cannot wait to take, part of me still wants to have boys to call my own. The Kaplan boys will embrace me whenever possible and I cannot be more thankful for that. My new motto is everything happens for a reason, and for now I just have to stick by that and know that something else will fill the hole that sweetheart left.
Forever and always,
Fannie Sablosky BBG proud member and Louis D Brandeis Nom. I cannot be more thankful for the best 6 weeks I have had in BBYO and for such amazing friends, family and sisters. Without each and everyone of you I don't think I would be able to move past this loss.

Everything Happens For a Reason

The one thing I have wanted since my first day in BBYO was to be a sweetheart.  It was finally my year and I did everything possible during Nom period to prove to the boys of Louis D. Brandeis that I was the girl for them.  The night of Walkdown came and the only thing I could focus on was finding out if I had won.  The nerves gradually became more intense as the night progressed and eventually it was time to reveal the winner.  Each LDB nom got a pink box and in each box were beads, whichever box had red and black beads would be the new sweetheart.  Shakily, I opened the box to reveal green and gold beads...the tears began to stream down my face as the boys jumped on stage to sing to their new sweetheart.  The sablosky girls quickly grabbed me to console me, but it didn't seem like anything could get any better.  The only thing I had ever wanted had just been taken right out from under me.  The votes were so close and I thought for once that this could have been mine.  The night seemed to continue even slower than before and every time I thought I might be done crying, more tears streamed down my face.  With every hug, "I love you," "you're amazing," ect. comment I got, nothing really seemed to be better.  I had Nathan by my side, all of my girls next to me, and yet I was still crying.  I cried the rest of the night, all day Sunday and Monday, and I really thought that by today I might be a little bit better.  I am hiding it better than I thought because I don't want to talk about it all the time, but that doesn't mean I am over it.  I know that everything happens for a reason, but right now it just doesn't seem like that.  Past Sablosky girls texted me throughout the next few days, and luckily I have been blessed with the most amazing friends and family I could have ever asked for.  As the last two chapters were announced,  I stood by Jackie and Sureck's side hopping they would be given the title of Sweetheart, that all 3 of us had dreamed of.  Unfortunately, I cannot join them in their journey of being sweethearts, but together they will show those boys how amazing they are.  Kaplan couldn't ask for a better sweetheart and neither could Lacey.  Those boys have no idea just how lucky they are.  My two best friends will be the most amazing sweethearts in the world and I cannot wait to see what they do this next year.  Hopefully things will start to get better but the best thing I can do is wait it out.  I can now return to my home and heart, Sablosky, and do what is best for my girls.  I will forever and always be a nom for Louis D. Brandeis AZA and will never forget the most amazing 6 weeks I spent with those boys.  I made incredible friendships that even without the title I will still cherish.  The new sweetheart for Brandeis will be amazing. 

I love you Brandeis Boys oh yes I do.
JACKIE SWEETHEART AND DANI SWEETHEART: you girls are amazing. yall are the definition of what it means to be a best friend to someone and you're boys couldn't be luckier to have you both. Live up to S4S like I was standing beside you.  I love you both forever and always.
