Solo & Ensemble: The Final Chapter

Mua Ha Ha. Mua Ha Ha Ha Ha. We got a 1 at state.

p.s. That is the highest score (not the lowest)that you can get. We are freaks.

Solo & Ensemble THE SEQUEL!

DAH DAH DAH!!!!!! Oh no... we made it to state.

Love

AH HA! I just remembered. It's love month (to be said in a low croon-ish voice). Sunday was Valentines Day, which was lovely. So, in the spirit of things, I would like to say just how much I really do love EVERYONE (mostly my family though...) (and my friends). I have such fantastical parents, it's not even funny. They probably won't read this, but I'd still like to tell them thank you soooooooooooooooo much for everything they do for me. They work so that I can have everything I need, they joke around with me, they teach me, they support me, they make me happy, and they tolerate me when I'm not as happy or helpful as I probably should be. I love them soooooooooooooooo much, and I could never thank them enough for their love and support. Love you mom and dad! I also love my lil' sisters and bro. They are so fabulous! I know sometimes I play like I'm the mean big sister, and they can't get nothin' by me, but in reality, I would do anything for them. I love my siblings so much, I could cry. I appreciate and cherish every moment that I get to spend with them, and I hope they know that I really do love to play with them, even though sometimes I am too tired or grouchy to really show it. Love you Phoebe, Isaac, and Lily! I also love my grandparents, my aunts and uncles, and all my kooky cousins! I wish that I could see you all every day, and that we could spend so much more time together! I love and appreciate all the crazy times we have together, and I miss you all! Love you family! I also love my friends. You guys are often what keeps me going. You don't run away from me (even though I am pretty scary sometimes), you laugh WITH me, not AT me (at least most of the time), and you are always there to take care of me. You guys are the greatest. Love my friends! (p.s. my family are also some of my BEST friends) Finally, I love my Heavenly Father, and Savior. They are always there to take care of me, as well as every single person who will simply ask. I am so grateful for their patience with me, and for the blessings that I receive from them daily. Remember "Knock, and it shall be opened unto you." Love you all!!!!

Pictures Pictures Pictures

I realized that I have not never EVER posted any pictures! No visual aids at all!!! Many of you have probably forgotten what I even look like because of it! Mr. Ellingford, my English teacher would kill me! We had a whole unit on blogging, and presentation! Well, I think I am just going to have to do something about that. So, hopefully when I have some free time on my hands (ha ha, yeah right) I will be able to post a picture.

Solo & Ensemble

Well, what can I say? My goofy group full of sophomores who only practiced twice on some crazy German song made it to Region. Sigh. I'd rather not go. Just one more thing to worry about in this crazy life of mine. Ah well. I suppose it's a blessing. Hopefully we can make our school proud instead of humiliating it. (Nah, I think we'll be fine. I've got some awesome singers standing by me, so we'll survive)

Time To Catch Up!

Wow, what a loser. No posts in almost a year. I stink. Anyway, life's good. This year's been crazy! I am getting along with swim team (no more meets, which is nice, 'cause those were pretty crazy), I was able to lose a TON of body fat this year because of it. Hooray! There's still room for improvement there, but it's nice being skinny :) Anyway, I just finished the Orem High School musical, "All Shook Up". Done after Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night", it was naturally crazy, and full of strange mishaps. It was also full of music by Elvis Presley. What a blast! I was a lead! Can you believe it!? A lead as a sophomore. Pretty nuts. I still don't think I really deserve it. I did, however, have the time of my life, made a ton of friends, and was most certainly changed for the better. Thanks to everyone who was able to come see it. Let's see, anything else interesting? Hmmmm... oh! I have solo and ensemble tomorrow. I hope it goes well. My group's singing a song in German. It should be interesting since we didn't start practicing until yesterday. Ah well, the worst thing that could happen is that I would fail. Not to big of a deal... right? Anyway, I'll catch you all later! Hope you're doing well! Love you!

Spring Break Madness

Hello again! Long-time-no-blog! I am sorry it has been such a while. The play is finished!!!!!!! Huzzah!!!!!! I had such a good time working with all of my friends, and the support was WONDERFUL! I have never received so many "good jobs" in my life!!!! Anyway, thanks to all of you that came, and sorry for those of you that couldn't. I still love you all. Anyway, last week was Spring Break, and I had the most AMAZING time of my life!!!!! I went with my dear friend Becca Smith on a CRUISE!!!!!!!! It was SO FUN!!!!!!! We drove down to San Diego, California, spent a night at her uncle's house, and then embarked the next day. The ship was HUGE! I kind of got sea sick, but it was beautiful, and the food was FANTASTIC!!!! I do so enjoy food... especially food that's already payed for. Anyway, we spent the next day in Catalina Island (rented a golf cart, spent some time at the beach, did some kayaking), and then sailed down to Ensanada Mexico the day after that (BOY did we have some adventures in Mexico... I sprained my wrist on an ATV, and we lost one of our friends up in the mountains... the shopping was great though). Our final day on the ship was spent sleeping, and tanning out on the deck. It was EVER so relaxing. When the ship got back to California, we went to Sea World and then to Knottsburry Farm the day after that. It was a BLAST!!!! It is, however, good to be home (I am quite prone to homesickness). Thanks to the Smith family for the wonderful trip (I hope that I didn't cause too much trouble)! I hope you guys all enjoyed your Spring Break! Love you all!
