Two things happened yesterday! 1. I won a book review competition at the library, and I won a signed copy of my favorite book! 2. During my school choir practice, some people came in and started filming us. Then they gave my choir teacher $5,000!!! And THEN they invited us to sing the national anthem at the Fiesta Bowl!!! I hope everyone has a fantastic Thanksgiving! ;3
