I have decided that since class is cancelled, I would write a couple things down. A couple lot of weeks ago, I had the chance to actually go to Jaden and Tori's concert. I love going to there concerts to show support. It's just what I do. I would feel bad if I didn't. Tori's concert was first and it was amazing. I have never heard an Eigth grade do as well as they did. (Sorry Tessa, I don't remember what yours sounded like). They were amazing. Especially in the first song. They did this amazing amazing cresendo. I was blown away. The whole thing was like that.


Then I went to Jaden's. Previous to the concert, Jaden gave me music downloads of the songs they would be playing and there was one in particular that I absolutely love. It is called O Magnum Mysterium. I love it. They played it pretty well although I thought they would do better at it. I think I just held to high of an expectation. But it was pretty much awesome anyway because jaden is in the highest band ever in his Junior Year. Who knew??? I didn't. I didn't even get into that band til my senior year. I think maybe because of teacher favoritism??? I don't know. Jaden also wore a tuxedo for the concert. (that is concert dress). I didn't even recognize him. I walked right by him and he had to stop me and tell me who he was. It was funny.


Since I am talking about music, I will confess to everyone that yes, I did take out my flute a couple weeks ago. It has been a while. Okay, a couple months but I did it. I played and it was amazing and I miss it. I wish I was in a band again as well as piano. Who knew I would miss it so much?


This is just a random picture I decided to put in. It is of me and my little cousin Audrey. I love love love it. I want to frame it but it gets really blurry when I expand it. It is still really really cute anyway.

Life Update

Life is just great. I can't complain except for the constant battle of tiredness. After a great summer of sleeping in and fun, I said goodbye to that life at the end of August. I started school again. I am in my third year of school working toward my bachelors degree in Speech and Hearing Therapy. I AM SO EXCITED!!! The classes are hard though. Who knew speaking and listening is so difficult. So many muscles, ligaments, bones, and tissues not to mention all the motions off all of those. Crazy hard. I am taking Anatomy/physiology of Speech, Anatomy/physiology of Hearing, a building relationships class, and Phonetics. I really like phonetics. My teacher gives examples of how some kids say some things and it is so funny to hear what some of them say. For example:

One of the kids my teacher heard replaced a word he did not know with yellow. So instead of saying Saxophone the kid would say yellowphone. The kid did it with a lot of words that started with S. It is interesting to me. I can't wait to start. :)

That is my life pretty much. I can't think of any cool stories to tell. I think I will go to sleep now. :)
