I did. YAY!!

I'll post more info and some pics later.

A statue in the lobby.



And the lobby.




And the totally amazing light fixtures.



and ......

the hall itself



and the gorgeous organ.



So the concert was amazing.  I really enjoyed it.  We had orchestra section seats.  We were able to sit right in front of the orchestra.  It was unbelievable.

****EDIT****

They performed:
Stephen Paulus - Sea Portraits
                            1 mov. - Sunrise
                            2 mov. - Sailing
                            3 mov. - Storm
                            4 mov. - Moonlight on the Sea

Prokofiev - Concerto No. 2 in G minor for Piano and Orchestra,
                   Op.16
                            1 mov. - Andatino
                            2 mov. - Scherzo: Vivace
                            3 mov. - Moderato
                            4 mov. - Finale: Allegro tempestoso
                      Yakov Kasman,  piano

INTERMISSION

Brahms - Symphony No. 2 in D major, Opus 73
                            1 mov. - Allegro non troppo
                            2 mov. - Adagio non troppo
                            3 mov. - Allegretto grazioso (Quasi andantino)
                            4 mov. - Allegro con spirito

    So yeah I'm very happy to be finished with my declamation.  This thought makes me extremely happy.

Since the Pledge of Allegiance
and
The Lord's Prayer
are not allowed in most

public schools anymore
Because the word "God" is mentioned....


A kid in Arizona wrote this new prayer.

Now I sit me down in school
Where praying is against the rule
For this great nation under God
Finds mention of Him very odd.


If Scripture now the class recites,
It violates the Bill of Rights.
And anytime my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.

Our hair can be purple, ORANGE or green,
That's no offense; it's a freedom scene.
The law is specific, the law is precise.
Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice.


For praying in a public hall
Might offend someone with no faith at all.
In silence alone we must meditate,
God's name is prohibited by the state.


We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks,
And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks.
They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible.
To quote the Good Book makes me liable.


We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,
And the 'unwed daddy,' our Senior King.
It's "inappropriate" to teach right from wrong,
We're taught that such "judgments" do not belong.

We can get our condoms and birth controls,
Study witchcraft, vampires and totem poles.
But the Ten Commandments are not allowed,
No word of God must reach this crowd.


It's scary here I must confess,

When chaos reigns the school's a mess.

So, Lord, this silent plea I make:

Should I be shot; My soul please take!


Amen

Well I went and saw FLICKA tonight, ITS AMAZING!!!!

UMMM....

Why does it seem like life is passing me by???

    So life in general is pretty good.  I have survived my first quarter at Webb without to much pain.  But soccers over now, which is kinda bittersweet. I mean I can now focus on academics and worry less about having to study after games and junk like that. But I realized last night how lucky I am to be here at Webb.  I mean I have made friendships that I think will last a long time and I know will be beneficial to me in the long run. 

    Before I came to Webb all I could worry about was not fitting in because I wasn't rich and snotty like everyone believes people at Webb are, but then as I got to know people I realized very few peoplw at Webb are snotty, in fact most are pretty cool.

    I just thought about how GOD has blessed me in so many inconspicuous ways.  In ways that I often thought were stupid or bad at the times they happened, but now I realize that everything happens for a reason and sometimes that reason is unvisible at the time, but often is a blessing in disguise.

So friday the 13th sucked pretty bad.

Oh darn, there runs a black cat, underneath a ladder, and it just broke a mirror.  Wheres the salt???

Today is now

Today is what is happening to you right now, the decisions you make,

what you choose to wear, how you choose to act

Today is knowing that your living with no regrets

Today is living like no one is watching but GOD

Today is loving people with all your heart

Today is calling up an old friend or a new friend just because you can

Today is taking every moment given to you and making it complete

Today is all about you and how you want to be remembered


Tommorrow is thinking about what you did today

Tommorrow is knowing that you have no regrets

Tommorrow is marvelling in the fact that yesterday was a great day

Tommorrow is realizing that the life you have is so great that you can

hardly stand it

Tommorrow is being the best person you can be and knowing that

everyone that matters knows who you are and what kind

of person you will become

Tommorrow is living with the mistakes you made yesterday and

knowing that you won't make them again

Tommorrow is embracing all the todays yet to come


BUT MORE THAN EVERYTHING ALL THE TODAY'S AND TOMMORROW'S WON'T MEAN ANYTHING UNLESS YOU CHOOSE TO MAKE THEM THE BEST!!!!!!

So yesterday was the annual duty of working the funnel cake booth at the fair for 4-H.  It was fun, well except for the fact the rain pretty much killed our usual crowd of people on Saturday night.  But oh, well theres always next year. 

But on another note, WE WON OUR GAME ON FRIDAY !!!!!  I was extremely happy.  I just hope that it lasts until tommorrow when we play Cascade. 

But longer post later, I have to go eat breakfast.

So my battle with the ever threatening flu that is goin around is over.  I was unfortunate enough to become sick on Tuesday and had to leave school early....much to my dismay, right before the all school photo. 
But I am almost fully recovered other than the fact that I am tired but at least I'm not sick any more.

So it's declamation time at Webb.  That means I have to pick a
passage out of a book and recite it in front of the whole school.  It
counts as  percent of my quarter grade.  So I've narrowed it down to
three stories.  But I'm not sure which one to pick.   The only catch is
that I have to have them approved by my english teacher, academic
advisor, and college counselor. 

They are as follows:

An excerpt from Breakfast at Tiffany's by Truman Capote

One of two excerpts from Civil Disobedience by Thoreau
    - The story about the ants
    - The story about the night he's in prison for not paying his taxes


If anyone has any other ideas or likes one of these I would appreciate any input you would like to give. 

Thanks

    Today is September 11th and thus hopefully makes all of us realize that we are all extremely lucky to live in the United States of America and how lucky we are to have everything we have.  But I have to get to class so I'll have to put more up after school.

Love and God Bless

I'm afraid I haven't posted in a while but this is why:

So I guess this is for anyone who doesn't already know.

I am going to The Webb School in Bell Buckle, thus making me a foot.(our mascot is the webb feet)  So lifes been going pretty good for me I love it here and hope that all of my old friends won't shun me just because Im not at school with yall anymore. 

I love school, I mean there is a ton of homework, but I have a bunch of new friends and enjoy the fact the school is so small.  I play soccer and love it and we all get along great.  There are a ton of great people here at Webb and they all have made me feel extremely welcome.

But I guess thats a long enough post so I'll post again later.

So life has been kind of interesting lately.

I have had some pleasant surprises .....

And some not so pleasant surprises .....

But for now I think Im going to thrive on the pleasant surprises, because I know that God has a plan for those unpleasant surprises and he will show me the way later. 

Love and God Bless,

Goali

So yeah Im finally ungrounded, which is good. so i should be updating regularly again.But i have to go to class so ill post more later.

So ive been listening to banana pancakes by jack johnson lately.  and i realized this is an amazing song.  random, yes i know but oh well

anyhow...

I cant wait for my life to start up again.  i mean im ready to do something new and exciting.  but im not sure what that is now.  but i know as soon as i figure it out it will be amazing. 

So I got to thinking the other day, about life and friends and stuff like that. 

I mean i got to wondering am i really who i want to be??

am i missing out on something great because im to scared to go after something i want?

i mean you all about these people who do all these crazy things and i wonder what is it like to actually do them and not be scared of whats going to happen. 

i mean is there any advantages to living without being scared of the consequences or is it better to live safely?? 

anybody willing to try and answer this question for me???

Well lifes going better I just had an off day so please forgive me for my last post.  I was just in need of a pity party and I gave myself one and now im all better. 
I dunno I just get so overwhelmed with life sometimes and I just get bogged down by the stupid things in life and just need to vent.  I guess everyone has had those days. 
There is just so much stuff going on right now and I just needed a minute to put my thoughts somewhere.  But like I said all better. 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
So on a lighter note I went to see two movies this past week, Cars and The Devil Wears Prada.  The first the better of the two.  So that was fun.  But like I said Im still open to do something so give me a call sometime. 

ROUND UP is only a week away and i cant wait.

So yeah ive just been reading everyones sites and i finally realized that compared to everyone elses summer mines been completely boring.  i mean i havent gone anywhere, havent done anything (other than VBS at ginnys church and school), and so yeah im completely boring.  i mean wow, what a summer.  but yeah i would like to go and do something, so yeah but no one ever asks me to do anything, ive been wondering why that is.  is it because im boring???

i dont know anything other than im going to the movies tonight and that will be the only thing ive done this summer for fun.  yeah im always home (after 4:00) so if anyone wants to do anything give me a call.
