so fine arts is finally here. it's seems like i just got back from colorado and it's already districts!!! wow.... i have a feeling this is gonna be an awesome fine arts year. i've made a lot of new friends this year who werent in it last year (tyler, krista, hannah, meagen.....). oh and i didnt make the dance team but i dont really care...

just 3 days.... 3 days till DANCE TRYOUTS! (dun dun duuuuuuuuun.......) u guys dont realize how amazing it would be to make the team. i just..... words cant describe it. today was the second day of the clinic. the dance is really extremely hard but i still have another day to work on it..... grrrr..... u guys i need prayer about this.... uh oh, i just realized we dont have church tomorrow! wow, i was lookin forward to it, too.

wow, this has been a busy week.  i've been at church the majority of the week. here lets see my week:

MONDAY

didnt do much this day. woke up around 7, went to school till 4, had dance at 6:30 to 7:30, the usual monday....

TUESDAY

i think i had trilogy practice that day.... yeah, i think i did. well i dont remember tuesday, it was a pretty long time ago....

WEDNESDAY

i dont think i did too much this day either. maybe i didnt have such a busy week. well, i went to church at 6:30, but had to leave right after praise and worship cuz we had to let the puppy out of her kennel.

THURSDAY

trilogy practice from 6:30 till, like, 9ish.

FRIDAY

ok, this is the busy day! well, not necesarily busy, just full. ok, i had to wake up at nine because my sister was the easter bunny for an easter egg hunt at our neighbors house

 

and i had to do her makeup and had to hide the eggs. i stayed for the egg hunt and we got home at around 11.30, 12ish. then melody called and asked if we wanted to go to the lake with the boys and hang out. so we went and stayed till about 4 cuz we had to go to church at 6 for practice. so we went to church at 6 and stayed till about 9. it was just me and my sister (from my family) that went. we were about to leave, but tyler asked if we wanted to go bowling. we went bowling and it was FUN!!! it was cyber bowling. we danced like freaks. i did so bad. the first game i got a (hold onto your chair) 39! i think that's the worst i've ever bowled, and that was with pointers from tyler. the second game i did a little better at. i got an 87, which is still pretty bad but it's better then a 39! i actually got in second and 5 points away from first (grrrr, spikey....). i got home at about 12:30 and listened to relient k till i fell asleep at around 4.

TODAY

happy easter! woke up at 7, left for church at 7:20, stayed at church till 12. it's 3:15 now and i have to be back at church at 5:30. tonight's the last performance. after all the effort i put into this, tonight is the crusendo (crew-sen-dough) or however you spell that. and next week is dance clinic and tryouts for the high school. grrr im so freakin NERVOUS! wish me luck!

Ahh, yes, i knew my puppy would be a yankee fan! check her out:

yes, yes, so cute. on a more gruesome note, i found this picture on stevens site:not quite as cute as the puppy.... gross, paul, that's stage makeup, not jelly! it made me cry when i sawthe trilogy.... so everyone, come to the trilogy and see tyler look like a dead man!

first off, i'd like to tell everyone that i've reached my 50th friend! i know, i know, it's not that much.... i try..... well on an even better note than that, i got a puppy yesterday!! she's only 7 weeks old and she looks like this

 

haha, that one looks like she has a lazy eye.

and she's really really really loveable. she wont let you put her down if you pick her up. and i think we've decided on the name jolee (thanks hannah) because it means "pretty" in french.

well this is cool... i went from 20 to 38 friends in about 14 hours.... cool.... well satuday was really awesome!! i started out the day good by driving around the church parking lot for about 5 minutes (yes, it was my first time driving!), then the junior high youth group went to chattanooga for the second time. that was fun.... i fell asleep on the van a lot.... then we had that "controlled chaos" thing and that was both life threatening and amazing! i left early, tho.... i needed a good day to make up for all the bad ones i've been having....

So im sick again today (crap!). I hate being sick. Im starting to feel a little better, but im still very light headed. I like phusebox. I still need to get used to it to like it more than xanga (im not to fond of myspace) but it's fun. and.... i feel like putting pictures in!

    

    

   

wow, so now i have a xanga, myspace, and phusebox..... wow... so this is it... be my friend.....
