I'm feeling lots of different things today. Sad, because it's the last day of summer. Excited, because I get to start highschool tomorrow. Anxious, because I don't know what's going to happen. Dread, because I don't want to get in that routine yet. Tired, because I've had a lot of fun today, and a lot of work. I know it's just school, and it's no big deal, but I'm scared. I think tomorrow better be super legit, that's all I'm sayin'. More stuff comin' soon.

Kudos if you can guess what movie that's from! I've decided I'm going to start my "The Music is All Around Us" series. I will do one a week. It will be about things that I have "Listened" to during the week that make my heart sing. You may join in if you want. So for my very first "The Music is All Around Us" episode: *I got a letter from my brother yesterday. All of his letters are so uplifting and not to mention HILARIOUS. *We had a game night with my brother and sister and sister-in-law and cousins yesterday. We played the Wii and it was a ton of fun. *My school clothes are adorable... *I'm getting a haircut soon! *I'm beginning to understand the scriptures better...it is such an amazing testimony-builder. *My mom bought August Rush (gold star if you knew that the title of this post is from that movie!) *I'm gonna take voice lessons...:) Comment or post on your blog about things in your life that

Oh my word, it is August 16, which means...about 15 days until school starts. Wow. I am scared. I've spent LOTS OF MONEY...(like a LOT) on school clothes, which I can't decide if it is a good thing or a bad thing. I've promised myself that my sophomore year will be fun. NOT stressful. I just want to enjoy being a kid because I only have a few more years and then I have to be responsible. :'( I am taking easy classes. Not advanced, just easy. I am taking troylairs, troyplayers, student council, and seminary. I am going to enjoy this year. I'm going to California in the spring. I have to get a job in January, but it'll be worth it. I still can't believe that when my brother gets back from his mission, I'll be a SENIOR in high school. I can't imagine being that old. I used to think 2nd grade was old! I don't wanna grow up! :( It makes me sad to think about. I want to be a little girl forever...(well, I'll always be LITTLE) Life's a

You know that feeling, when you're on stage and the crowd is cheering and all you're thinking is, "I want to do this for the rest of my life! This is awesome! I feel great!" You know it. You've all experienced it. It's like you're on a high...which in a way, you are. But it's a little more healthy, when controlled. You're so happy you could shout it to the rooftops. On a more serious note, you know the feeling of peace. You know you do. The day you were baptized. A day in church where you really felt the spirit. A time in seminary where you were just so happy you would do anything to live righteously. You would do anything to live with our Father in Heaven. You would do anything to be with your family forever. Anything. Don't mistake euphoria for peace. Yes, euphoria is awesome and you are happy. Euphoria goes away. Peace, if you're living right, doesn't. Just because you're feeling euphoric doesn't mean it's right. It d

I've always been a writer. I can't say that I'm good at it, but it's a secret passion that I don't let many people know about. I've always been one to say what I feel and not hold anything in. If I don't like something, I let you know. If I do like something, I let you know. I can't even count the number of notes I've written to a friend in need or someone who made me happy. I've even written a few notes to people telling them to be nicer to me. Like I said, I wear my heart on my sleeve. I guess that's the actress in me :) I don't know what my deal is, but lately my blog posts have been B.O.R.I.N.G. It's alright. I know. Sometimes I feel like what I write doesn't mean anything to anybody. I read all these inspirational blogs or even just funny ones, but I look forward every day to reading them! I just want you guys to look forward to reading them, because I know I look forward to reading yours! I'm at a loss for word

Have you ever felt like all you do all day is clean house and sit around? That's how I've felt. A lot lately. I need to get out and do something fun. I'm planning a bonfire party...and a swimming party. I want to do both. I need to finish going school shopping that I started weeks ago. If any of you guys wanna take me somewhere...call my mom and convince her. See you soon!

It is August 1! (See above.) I can't believe it. In 30 more days, I will be going to my first day of highschool. Holy junk...I'm nervous. Yet, I'm excited, and dreading it, and anxiously awaiting it! I have so many emotions going through my head. I can't wait for all of my classes...troylairs, troyplayers, student council, seminary...and I'm dreading others...math, science, english... You know the flow. Anywho, I need some advice. In highschool, should I try hard to take as many advanced classes as possible so I can get into the college I want, or should I just have fun as a teenager? Tell me what you think!
