Posting in the AM

It is six twenty in the morning and I feel like my head is going to explode because I have such a bad headache. haha. oh well.

Anyway. Thursday night Nat and I pulled together a date, with budge too. I asked Sam, Nat asked Goates, and Budge asked Valerie. It was super super fun. At first I was really worried cuz we originally planned to go to temple square, however, we weren't sure if the lights were still on so we ended up just staying at my house and we made pizza's and played games. It was SO fun. Probably the best date I've ever been on. Or at least tied for first versus masquerade. Anyway. It was so fun. Sam was really sweet and let me almost win at scum cuz he didn't play some cards that would have made him win, which was way cute. And Nat and Goates were hilarious..... yeah.... just cuz.

But today, (friday) I slept in until four ten, which probably explains why I haven't quite passed out yet. haha. But then I went and picked up my car from the shop, which cost a mere fortune to fix (like we should have just bought a new car) but oh well. I'm just happy I got my Beatris back. Then I drove to my grandpa's, all decked out in red U attire and watched the Sugar Bowl and ate hamburgers. Which was also very fun. And then I came home and kind of sat around for a bit. Then I got this massive headache which sucked, but then Rosie and I talked and resolved our, no hanging out......... I wouldn't say problems cuz we never got in a fight, we just kind of stopped hanging out. But yeah. We are hanging out in roughly five and a half hours. If I can wake back up by then. :P

Anywho. I just finished playing some vicious games of blokus, racko, and upwords with my sister and her boyfriend so my brain is really tired and I probably have a ton of spelling errors in this but oh well. My headache still isn't gone so I am just going to go to bed now cuz it is six thirty AM!!!

Have a lovely day.

Daddy-o

I have realized that I say some words to often. For instance, the words "so" and the phrase "heck yes". Haha. I mean it is not necessarily a bad thing, but I suspect it gets kind of old. Anyway. So I haven't blogged in a little bit and I don't really feeling like catching people up on everything so I am just going to share some random stuff that is on my mind.

I went to my dad's for dinner today. That is always kind of weird cuz my mom and him never got married and then my dad has other kids who have kids who are anywhere from 2 months old to eleven years old. Makes it awkward cuz the kids are all getting so big. I mean I love that side of my family, it is just kind of hard to go over there sometimes, cuz I feel like I don't really fit it very well. And to make it even more awkward, my dad's wife's cousin came over for dinner too. Which meant I had some lady I don't even know, giving me weird looks. And I love my dad, but he does this thing where he asks me what I have been up to lately and then five minutes later he will repeat the exact same thing to everyone else and sometimes he even gets it wrong. Haha. But he makes it look like we talk alot and that he knows so much about me, but he really doesn't. So tonight I talked to my half-sister, Abbey, and she asked if dad and I talk alot and I told her no. She seemed kind of surprised. Which, weirdly enough, didn't surprise me. But then Abby and I talked for a good hour and played with her two adorable sons, Austin ("Tex") and Gabe. They are both so cute. But yeah. I went to my dads which was fun, but it is always a little hard. And Abby is definitely amazing though, she is always so nice to me and doesn't even care about the whole history about our dad. She even offered to let me stay at her house this summer in California which is so cool. And if things pan out the same as they are now, I might surely take her up on the offer.

However. I have to stop writing cuz Megan needs her laptop. But I just felt like writing about today. And thoughts I guess.

Oh and I recieved a letter from Austin on saturday. Man that boy is hilarious. Hope you guys are all writing him.

Have a lovely day!

I Can See Clearly Now the Rain is Gone

WOW

I am more exhausted than ever, but life is really starting to fall into place.
Today I had my Junior Choir concert, and even though half the choir forgot half the words, it was still ok.
Um. Musical Theatre Showcase is thursday and I am really excited.
Also. I am making fudge with my Grandma tomorrow and I made caramel with my mom Sunday.
Ok. So I officially have a talent representative who lives in LA. Exciting right?! I have a three year contract, unless I act in a movie, which then he will be my rep for as long as I want. Yeah. I'm super excited. I start recieving audition dates on the 22nd.
What else?
OH! So last night I finally wrote back to Austin and it crazy how much I haven't told him. Thinking about it now I even forgot about some stuff to tell him. But it was really nice to write him again.
Hm. So i have an english test tomorrow. An APUSH test and a spanish oral test on thursday. And a chemisty test on friday. But I'm really not worried.
Oh and saturday is the murder mystery dinner and it is Harry Potter themed. Annie P wrote the story and everyone gets there own part. well.... I got Looney Luna Lovegood. :D I am so excited. Becca and I are watching the first and fifth Harry Potter's on friday night to prep for the dinner. It is going to be SOOOO fun.
Anyway. My little sister has fallen asleep in my floor and I need to do some chemistry homework. So maybe I will write more later.

Nighty Night.
Sleep Tight.
Don't let the bed bugs bite.
And if they do punch them black and blue.
Cut them in two.
Half for me, Half for you.


Have a lovely day!

Life is an amazing thing!

So I haven't actually written on this for a while. I haven't had much time to sit down, but today, on November 17 I am going to take some time (that I don't really have to give) and write about some stuff that I have been through the last little bit and some surprising things I have found out. And don't be annoyed but I might be vague on some of it.

So hm.... lets see. Where to start?

About 7 weeks ago I really liked this guy. Like I had... all summer. But sadly he was leaving soon, and for a long time to boot. So I was kind of depressed so I wanted to hang out with him as much as I could, but since it was volleyball season I had little time to give, if any. So then a friend of mine started spending more time with him and then he started liking her a little and all the while he liked someone else. Well. Long story short- some things happened that surprised me. I might have hurt someone because they wanted to spend time with him right before he left, but I was selfish and wanted to hang out with him too. And I was hurt really bad in alot of ways.

After he left things seemed to sort themselves out for me. I had volleyball to keep me busy for a while which was good. Then my cousin stepped it up and really befriended me, which was amazing of her. Then I asked someone to masquerade and had an AMAZING time. Best date ever! And after volleyball ended I went straight into having to work on National Honor Society stuff and then the play needed help so I helped with that. So my mind was busy, I was happy, everything was going really good. I was writing Shippy and he was writing back.... then I found out some stuff and sort of lost the want to write him. Which I really regret. Things that happened are in the past and I should have just moved on, because it is not like they can be erased. So I think I will write him soon but I'm not sure.

Present Day. I am right stage grip (assistant stage manager) for Thoroughly Modern Millie at school right now and it is SO fun. The cast is amazing and I have my musical boyfriend so things are going great. I have decided that stupid drama isn't worth worrying about. The boys in the cast are hilarious and I haven't had so much fun in a long time. Tonight is closing night and I can't even begin to explain how sad I am about that. But luckily alot of the boys are going to switch into productions and so I will be able to hang out with them every other day. Yay! So yeah. My life is really good right now. I have alot of friends. I'm pretty busy with NHS. We are going to start the musical theatre concert piece in productions soon and I am SOOO excited. So yeah. This post is just kind of a formal update about what has been going on with me lately.

Have a lovely day!

It's A Cold and It's a Broken Hallelujah

Its sad when people you know,

become people you knew.

When you can walk right past someone,

like they were never a big part of your life.

How you used to be able to talk for hours,

and now you can barely even look at them.

Random Updates & Thoughts

Updates
* I jammed my thumb and it hurts really bad.
* For the first time in a long while my problems in life are not caused by boys.
* My ankles are stupid and I need to get them x-ray'd. (which i actually learned was really bad for you, today in chemistry)
* Volleyball is SO fun & I love the girls on my team.
* I'm still sick but slowly getting better.
* School is going pretty good.
* I'm having an inter-conflict of having to choose between sports and theatre and I am really being pulled towards sports.
* I've met some new friends that are way nice.
* I overall am pretty happy.

Thoughts
* Ok. So lately I have been talking to some people and it makes me realize how stupid some people really are. I mean honestly who tells someone that they are only physically attractive. I mean maybe it went down a little differently, but even so, you should not say it that straight forward. You should just try and actually get to know them more cuz once you did I bet you would discover how fricken amazing that person is.
* Secondly. I wish I was like super-woman or something and could fix everyone's problem. Like honestly. I hate it when my friends are sad. Especially when there is nothing I can do about. But no joke, if all my friends were happy and all my family was happy, I would be the happiest person ever. I care so much about the people around me. They literally mean the world to me.
* Thirdly. I have discovered that I have become an introvert so if that annoys you sorry. But I have had to deal with my sister's car accident and all, this summer so I have kind of had to. And I have decided it is good to do. Then you don't have to worry that other people will be sad cuz of how you are or something. But anyway. So yeah. I'm sorry if that bugs you.
* Fourthly. Volleyball is the most amazing sport ever. The girls are hilarious and I love them so much. We all went to Maggie Moo's tonight after our game and I hadn't laughed that had in SO long. Oh and also, during the varsity game, me and maddie were sitting on the bench making faces at eachother and she actually started crying cuz she was laughing so hard. It was GREAT! But tonight we all had a bonding night and went to Maggie Moo's, then we went to Sunnyside Park with some of the football guys and played night games. Which kind of failed so me and Liz hung out with the football boys, which are hilarious by the way. Anywho. Yeah. Volleyball= Amazing.
* Fifthly. My family is amazing. They sure give me tons of crap sometimes, but I love them. They hold me up and keep me going. My mom is the most amazing woman you will ever meet. She has been through so much and yet she still gets up everyday and works her butt off for her kids. I love her. Then my older sister, Megan, she may cause me alot of tears but I love that girl. She is the best older sister someone could ask for. I can go to her whenever I have boy problems and no matter what she will agree with me, even if I am bipolar and say I like someone then ten seconds later I hate them. She still agree's with me. My little sister. She is such a cutie. She came to volleyball with me this summer and just ran around encouraging me. She does that all the time. She is always concerned about me and says things like 'Are you ok, honey?' No joke. She is the cutest little sister ever. My older brother. Holy cow. Talk about motivation. He got married at nineteen to his lovely wife Rebecca Clements Mabey and now he gets up and works EVERY week day then holds out his calling in the church on Sunday's. He truly is amazing. He is always there for me. And if it wasn't for him I would listen to crappy music and I wouldn't be addicted to xbox 360. Once again I love my family. They are amazing.
* Finally. My friends. They are amazing. Sometimes you do stupid things. But I will ALWAYS try and be there for you and I will always be there to listen to anything you ever need to vent about or anything. ALL OF YOU. I love you. You really are amazing people. All my friends are. Even when you bug me cuz you won't tell me something. Friends are your guidance and they are meant to help you through anything and not judge you. That is what they are for. I am trying to be that kind of a friend. And yes sometimes I may be pissed and ignore you for a day or two. But I am not going to lie, I am very judgemental. I always have been. Even though I hate being judged I still judge people which is stupid. I know. But I am sharing my thoughts less and less. Hence the introvert. So Anyway. I love all of you. Never think you are worth anything less that amazing. You are all going to go on and do amazing things in life and I hope that I will still be able to be there when you do so. I have let amazing friendships slip through my fingers for stupid reasons. So you should always hold onto your friends because it takes forever to make an amazing friendship. But you could destroy one with a stupid sentence and action. So just be careful.

I told a friend once. 'If you settle for mediocre you will have a mediocre life, but if you fight for what you love you will have an amazing life.' I truly believe life is an obstacle put in your way and trying to see how far you will go before you fail. Never give up- Never fail- Never settle for mediocre.
