Ah... when times were so much simpler, and I had so much more simple time, I used to post at least once a week. I am only now posting because Delaney posted (and informed everyone on Facebook), so I knew I had better post in order to make everyone know that I, too, have survived the first week and day of high school. Barely. But, nevermind that. On to the music!!
"I am in misery,
There ain't no other
Who can comfort me -
Why won't you answer me?
Your silence is slowly killing me..."
-'Misery' by Maroon 5
Loooooove that song!
Lol, so, life has been interesting of late. A lot of stuff has happened... like... uh...
OH YEAH!
I started high school. How could I have forgotten that? Oh, and my little brother started Jr. High. That's just weird, if you ask me. Sure, I'm allowed to grow up, but my little brother? NO WAY! He's actually as tall as me now.
Speaking of my little brother, I've been trying to teach him how to waltz. Note the part of that sentence in which I use the word trying.
So... other things in my life. I made the ballroom dance team I tried out for, and classes start in a week. I joined the Swing Club at BHS... Hmmmm... boys, boys, boys... you know, just your average stuff. A lot has happened, but nothing that I really want to talk about anymore. So, I guess I'll just end this post, and put you out of your MISERY. (Lol, remember the song I used? Way up there? Haha! I'm so fuuuuunny!)
Okay, I'm really ending now.
Until next time!!

New Design
What can I say? I got bored with the old design - again. And I read a book called 'What I Saw and How I Lied' a few days ago. It was one of the weirdest books ever, but it got me into a vintage sort of mood all over again.
So, life this past week has been totally crazy. I learned how to ballroom dance, and then impulsively tried out for a team - I won't know if I made it until July 10th - pray for me, everyone! Savior of the World practice has totally kicked up. It's every day for hours and hours on end. By the way, performances are this week, Thrusday, Friday, and Saturday night starting at 7:00 pm. There is also a matinee on Saturday. You should all come - I found out today that they won't turn you away if you odn't have a ticket. So, come. you want to see how all of my hard work came off, right? Don't you? It's at the Bountiful Regional Center (the big, giant, round building that we all have Stake Conference in. You should know it).
It's nearing midnight. I should go to bed. I'm going to sign off now. Ciao!

Ahem...
Excuse me while I go and chase after my childhood... *scrambles away*
OH MY GOODNESS! WE ARE HIGHSCHOOLERS!!! As Laurie so eloquently put it, 'We are people who think we are adults, but really aren't.' We are at that extremely awkward age where we want our freedom, and think we can have it, but really wouldn't know what to do with it - or, perhaps, we would know what to do with it, but we know all the wrong things.
On Tuesday, I was asked what grade I was in by an eighth grader. I responded 'Tenth.' And then we were both silent. She, because she then knew that she was the youngest by two years, and I, because I was astounded by the simple fact. I am old. I've always thought that highschoolers are old - even this past year, if somebody talks about highschoolers... they just seem old. And now I am old...
Anyway, on to less mind-boggling things (such as age) and on to the weather...
I HATE IT! Oh my goodness! All I want to do is sit outside for maybe - just MAYBE - half an hour. What? Is that too long for you Mother Earth? You prefer to let it rain and thunder? Oh, then by all means! You haven't had enough bad weather the past eight months? Well, go ahead and spoil June as well. I think we're all okay with it. Are we? Are we, people? It is hailing at this very moment. My brother is out doing his paper route. Sucker.
Well, I have Savior of the World practice tonight, and chores to do, so I had best log off. I will write again soon!!

Radiating Joy
So, my last post was about a month ago...
In that time, I have fallen in love with spring, and become addicted to The Office. I have also discovered I am much, much better at using watercolor paints than I am at using the other kind that I can't spell xP It's, like, acryllic, I think... O.o. Maybe I'll get some pictures of my pictures up sometime ;)
Anyway, I really just wanted to check in. Life has kind of come to a griding halt lately. I have plenty going on, I suppose, but... you know how it is? It's just a routine that I go through, every single week.
Oh, yeah, speaking of routines, Savior of the World practice has been bumped from every other Sunday and the first Tuesday/Wednesday of the month to every other Tuesday AND Wednesday, plus every other Sunday. I try not to complain, and I try to have a good attitude, and I try to tell myself that I'm growing spiritually, like they promised I would. But I don't see how pretending to be an angel and walk across the gym like a stuck-up model is going to help me grow spirtually. Or how dressing up in bright colors, and prancing around the Primary room, celebrating Mary's and Joseph's wedding will help me grow spiritually, either. I think it's just a bad idea for a Youth Conference. But I try so hard xP (Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know what you're all thinking - 'she shouldn't be complaining,' or 'if she just had a better attitude, she would have fun...'
I'll be honest. I ditched out on practices tonight. I had a pretty rough day, and I just didn't feel like going and acting happy - because I'm supposed to radiate joy. Grrrrrr... Grr! (In case any of you don't know, that's what they told me when they assigned to be Mary's cousin. I hate it when people act like a small part is so great and grand and huge. I seriously think they should just tell you what you have, and you go on with life. But, the whole radiating joy thing definitely makes the whole thing funnier - especially when the unorganization is making me frustrated. I slap on a smile and I radiate joy.)
Well, I'm going to go practice prancing and radiating joy. I'll see you all later ;).

"I lift the envelope pushed far enough to believe this...
I am a pioneer naïve enough to believe this...
I am a groundbreaker naïve enough to believe this...
I am the Joan of Arc and smart enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne..."
-Wunderkind by Alanis Morissette

Ho Hum...
I'm sitting at my school's computer lab right now, bored out of my mind. Twelve minutes of class are left, and I swear if I see one more question asking me 'what type of writing would be best to write this kind of essay?' I'm going to die.
So, I suppose I'll just rant instead of taking another test. I've already got above (or at) 80% on all of them anyway... just not fabulous scores... One of the tests, I've taken three times, and each time my score gets lower. Ugh, it drives me crazy.
Oh, guess what! I painted my nails yesterday! They're a light pink, and I love them :). Last time I painted my nails, I got some on the brand new carpet, so I have to paint my nails on the kitchen tile from now on, and I am not allowed to walk on the carpet until my tosies are dried. xP Oops.
Nine more minutes.
HAPPY FRIDAY! I love Fridays! I'm going to the school play today. I'm not expecting it to be great, but... you know... it's a service project, and I feel obligated to support. I've been through three years of service now, and I know how awful it can be. Besides,this is the last year anyone is doing service anyway, isn't it? ...Well, it'll be interesting.
Well, maybe I'll go read Rachel's and Delaney's blog for the last seven minutes. I saw they had new posts, and I can't think of anything else worthwhile to type. So. Yeah. O.o

And think of you
Caught up in circles confusion--
Is nothing new..."
