COLLEGE!!
sooooo figuring out what classes to take is a tad stressful!
ESPECIALLY when you see how many people already have classes you want to take but you can't even register for them for another 9 days!!!
crazy crazy.
so i can register for my remaining classes on july 13th and i have to get up at 2AM to do that, YAY ahahhaa.
classes i'm already registered for because of the "freshman mentoring program" are American Heritage (with Patterson) and Book of Mormon (with Stohlton).
a class i had my brother bryan hold for me is Preview to Nursing!! whoop whooopp!!
and the remaining classes i need to register for are as follows: Basic Vocal Skills 111 and Chemistry 101.
HOWEVER that totals to only 11 credits. and i need 12...
SOOO i'm planning on auditioning for a choir when i get out there. don't know which one yet but we'll see :)
so any suggestions on an audition piece? or classes to take?

last choir concert
last night i had my very last high school concert. EVER.
after being in choir for 4 years and then being choir co-president it quite an emotional night.
to start things off, we had 3 of our guys in our jazz choir get suspended for a few days so that had to miss this concert. that right there just made things difficult but we pulled through and had a great performance!
i've a great few years at this high school and the end is coming faster than i expected but i'm pretty excited to move on with my life and face bigger things and more adventure.
what a great ending to a great few high school years!
AND it rained like crazy last night so we played in the rain as a final goodbye :)

roller coaster phobia
yes that is the true name.
i googled "what is the phobia of roller coasters" and that's what it said. so i will belive google i suppose.
this past saturday i went to hershey park for a choir competition (which we got 1st place in mixed choir, jazz swing choir, and overall high school choir. and these are against choirs from all over the east coast. PRETTY AWESOME)
so anyway, that part was really cool and done and whatnot and then comes the park. i had been to hershey park before but that was with my parents and they don't like roller coaster. and this time i was going with lots of my friends so i knew i was doomed.
so we get to the park and the first ride they want to go on is called "the great bear" which is a roller coaster where your feet dangle over. i agreed and we waited in line. what i did not expect was that we somehow ended up in the line for the very front seat. i was not happy. i actually got my arm bruised cause they were grabbing me and holding me so tight. so i ended up in the front row. i screamed the ENTIRE way. and i think i would've enjoyed it a lot better had i been somewhere in the middle. i also went on "storm runner" which launches you off super fast up a big hill and then straight down. there were some mega G's acting on my body. but i LOVED that one!!
but anyhoo, the main part of this story is this. there was a new roller coaster recently built called the "fahrenheit" which slowly takes you straight up and then comes down at a 92 degrees angle. that's just not natural. i was freaking out the entire 2 hour wait. once i got on i was freaking out so much i was silent. i didn't even scream the entire ride i was so scared. once i got off i was hyperventilating and practically in tears but i was so proud of myself for going on it! and it was kinda fun!!
so here's a note to all you roller coaster haters out there (this does not include the ones who get motion sickness cause that just stinks): JUST DO IT. YOU WILL NOT DIE. TOMORROW WILL COME.
that's the great lesson i learned this weekend at hershey park, the land of chocolate!! and to sing really well and win trophies :)

this was my dress borrowed from a friend. altered by my fantastic mother :)
yes our group had 7 girls and one guy haha. and he's a freshman!

the end of the beginning
the musical is now over and it makes me surprisingly sad! i made so many great friends and had so much fun dancing on singing on stage that i've decided that i want to do more musicals. maybe they have like intramural musicals or something at byu? or i could even take an acting class or something? that could be fun!
now this show we did is our school's "cappie-show" meaning that student judges from all over come to watch it (we had about 50-60 cappies come on saturday) and then they give out awards, like the tony awards, for best actress/actor, ensemble, pit-band, etc. and because our saturday night performance was our best one, i'm pretty certain we'll get nominated for something! and then there's always the chance of performing the show at the kennedy center which would just be phenomenally awesome.
so keep your fingers crossed for us and maybe i'll steal someones pictures to put some up? maybe even a video??

let the suffering begin...
this is week is what theatre people call "hell week" for us.
i call it "heck week" or "swell week".
meaning that this is the week of opening night.
we open on thursday and tonight we are doing our first dress rehearsal!
"swell week" means we get to stay at school till about 10 or later running the show and perfecting every little thing. then we go home and do homework. then we get up early and come to school for more rehearsal and suffer through classes and tests. AND because this week is the last week of the quarter/term, they are piling on the tests. WOOP WOOP!
let the fun times ROOLLLL!!!!
if you can, come see the show on thursday, friday, or saturday at 7pm!!
email me if you want information :)

is beauty really pain?
this is a question that always come up in my brain when choosing what shoes to wear.i think the answer to this question is this: it depends.
when wearing shoes, it depends on how long you're wearing them for. like for a few hours when you won't be walking too much, beauty definitely overrides pain.
BUT if you know you'll be walking a lot or fast, definitely go with simpler comfortable looking pair.
and i think that anything above maybe 4 inches is a little psycho.
but i have to say, i absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE high heels.

these shoes are absolutely adorable.
some of my favorite shoes EVER are found here (except for any wedges)
so if you ever need any gift ideas.... :) (i'm a size 8)
BUT ANYWAYS, back to the original question "is beauty really pain?", it depends on the situation and it depends on the person.
for me, i would usually go with YES, beauty is pain.

- went to these classes with Andie --> music class, ASL class (first deaf person I've met and it was really cool!), american heritage
- ate some goooood food at the cannon center with andie
- went to these classes with Bryan --> physics, chemistry, microbiology, and construction management
- went to work with lisa and ate a whole bag of oreos for dinner and breakfast (1 bag for both, not one for each)
- hung out with katie and olivia and made some cool headbands
- walked around campus with katie and olivia while holding lillies
- dyed part of my hair HOT PINK with kirsten :)
- went to dinner and coldstone with the fam

oh the stresses of high school
some reasons why i am not sleeping and am currently breaking out:
- SCHOOL: AP classes are pulling my eyelashes out, one by stinkin' one. i don't understand ap lit and i don't think i ever will. ap gov is just...stupid. i don't really care that much about the government, sorry to those of you who do. and then math is just pointless; especially with a terrible teacher who you can't understand in the first place.
- MUSICAL: memorizing songs you barely have learned proves to be very very difficult
- COLLEGE HOUSING: i don't get to apply till next week and people are already applying now! where do i wanna live?! i'm thinking heritage halls either tingey or whitney... suggestions?
- FRIEND DRAMA: i hate those people who're like "oh i HATE drama, blah blah blah" and then turn around and create a ton! and then the people who are just overall obnoxious and like to rule the world.
- FAMILY: i love my family, i do. but sometimes i just need to step away and take a breather...
whew, that felt nice to get out.

rain
it has been raining the last two days and i LOVE IT!
it just makes me feel so happy to walk in the rain and smell the rain (minus the worms).
and sitting inside reading a book gets that much better when you can hear the rain beating down on your safe secure house. sleeping is much more fitful when it's raining too.
love it!!
