Dancing Queen?

Not so much. Dance concert is this weekend and i feel so unprepared and un-ready!!! i'm kinda freaking out a little bit.
blehhhhhhhhh
POST EDIT: pictures!!



wooo concert was soo much fun!! of courseee. except saturday night i did HORRIBLY. and no, i am not being modest or crap. i honest to goodness did sooo bad =/ really sad

Green, Please

Tomorrow, our whole stake is planting Oak trees!!! yayyy. i loveee going green!!
but eff, my school cut down alll of the trees in between the buildings over spring break. what's up with that?!!

Brrr

i justt posted about how it was so stinking hot; and now for the past two days, it's been freezing. you've got to be kidding me, right?!?

well, whatever. it's Friday!!!! life is fab. this week went by super fast actually! which is weird since it was the week right after break. but jeez. maybe it's because we've been working on dance concert, which makes time seem like it's nonexistent. the show is next friday and saturday!! this year is so much different for me, in so many ways. i'm in more advanced dances, all of my dances are co-ed, i'm in four dances (which actually isn't really that many), and i get four dances in saturday night's show!! (a.k.a. our biggest show)
ah!!! i am soo excited. well, actually i'm nervous because my small lyrical dance is so not prepared =/

Heat Wave

It has been RIDICULOUSLY hot the past three days. for April, i mean. i can't stand it. and by can't stand it, i mean i can totally stand it!!! (until i have to walk home from school) ahh beautiful California! i loveee not having to be covered in blankets at night. and to have my windows open. oh and all the bug bites and spiders? oh yeah, that's my favorite. haha not! there was a spider in my bathroom yesterday morning and one by my locker today. ughhh soo grossss.

Me Encanta Primavera

Spring break is good.

Break

I am SO excited for summer. i was just looking through pictures from summer '08 and I'm thirsting for it. ah the sun and heat and water. and the smellsss. being tan. having as much sleep as you can possibly stand. laying in the sun on the grass. listening to the ocean. going to the park on Tuesday afternoons. fishing for crawdads. chipotle picnics. sleepovers. warm nights. road trips. taking pictures. wearing sandals and shorts and tank tops. wear bathing suits in lieu of underwear. bike rides. hikes in wildwood. pool/ BBQ parties. going to the library. reading nonstop till your head hurts.
and new things I've never experienced. things i should be really excited about or be really scared about. EFY in Santa Barbara with Brenna. possibly my last year of girls camp. senior portraits. really looking into colleges and SATs. crap. i think I'm more scared than excited about these last ones.

*me at jack frost's house; me on a bike ride with Carly; chipotle; crawdad at the park down the street from my house; Jane at the park on Tuesday family park nights

SATURDAY

I liked Saturday. in the morning at least. i woke up, knowing i would be home alone since my mom and brother were at his track meet in ojai. i went to the living room, checked to see if conference was still on, but it was just ending. so i decided i wanted to make pancakes. i got my ipod and plugged it in, scrolling straight for my beachhh playlist. i made the pancake batter with ease while dancing to the happy Hawaiian music. i couldn't help but to just move my hips! it was sunny and warm outside. it was beautiful. i made the pancakes, the scent of cinnamon and chocolate filling the air. (i add cinnamon and extra chocolate to my pancakes =]) then finally, i sat down at the table that overlooks our green backyard. i ate almost all of the pancakes i made with a glass of milk to wash it all down, and while reading breaking dawn. with my beach mix playing quietly in the back round. Mmmmm it was a delicious morning. i even thought about going for a run, but then conference started again and i had to take notes for seminary makeups.
*these are my amazing pancakes :) but this is the worst of the 2 pictures i took of them. that one in the front was super tiny and the one on the left was a square haha oops. but i couldn't find the better picture =/

Una Cosa Mas

Wednesday was my sister, Brianna's 20th birthday!! i can't even believe that!! but i wish i could have gone up to Utah this weekend for General Conference, but it just wasn't really possible. =[ and oh my gosh! Tim is there!! in Utah! with Brianna! jeez i seriously want her to marry him. no joke. i love him. he is so perfect. she knows she loves him, so she just needs to tell him already! because he's made it pretty obvious that he has some kind of feelings for her!! i mean, he sent her flowers on valentine's day for crying out loud!! ugh! and I'll be really mad if she ends up marrying someone else! because her and Tim are meant for each other!! andd she knows how much i love him! and i strongly i want them to get married! hahaa

Me Encanta Leer

of course, a few good things did happen this week. i wouldn't have been able to survive if there wasn't. first of all, i finally finished In Cold Blood!! this is one of the best books I've ever read. and it's hard to fathom that it's all 100% true, real events! it also may have been the hardest book I've ever read. but i recommend it to everyone. yeah, it's hard to read and get into at first, but don't give up on it. it's an amazing and unbelievable story. it makes you question things in life, and also makes you appreciate things so much more. It causes you to feel strange feelings. like with the murderers; you want to hate them so much, and you do, but you also feel sympathy for them and feel bad for them. i think i cried at the part that Perry was executed. and the last page, i was reading it in class, and it was really hard not to start bawling. and throughout the whole book-you smile, laugh, cry, and feel intense anger. it's really an incredible book, and i wish everyone would read it because i think this is a really important and impactful story that needs to be heard.

Another book i just finished today is The Girl Who Could Fly by Victoria Forester. AH! i love this book!! it's so so cute and inspirational! it funny, exciting, surprising, and sad. i laughed and cried. I absolutely loved the story. Like Stephenie Meyer said, (i got the recommendation for this book from her blog) it's Little House on the Prairie meets Xmen. it's completely not what you would expect, which is why you're thinking, "Little House On the Prairie meets Xmen?!?" well, yeah that really is what it's like. and you're just gonna have to read it to see what i mean! =] but it's more of a younger generation version of Xmen. i love the love Piper has for everything around her. she is such a cute girl! i wish books were real so i can meet these characters!

Too Much

this week was pretty crazy. well, actually, i didn't even have that much homework, but i was still so stressed because i had two midterms-history yesterday and math today- and i have my English term paper to write by next Thursday. Plus I've been feeling so sickk. i told Taylor that i think I'm pregnant. haha. not really though, but i feel like it. i have huge headaches everyday, i feel nauseous, even if i see or smell stuff, it feels like I'm going to vomit, then Ive been sleeping nonstop- i fall asleep on the couch almost everyday after school- i keep crying and having nervous breakdowns. everything just makes me snap. the thought of Friday being at the end of the week was my life line, plus spring break looming. i cannot wait.
