Life as I continue to know it

Finally-I am doing my weekly update! I try to do it at least that much! My life goes all different places during the week-ahhh!
Other than that, last week was a really great week once again. I continue to stay busy but I keep thinking how good it feels because I am enjoying everything. Ok-well Math and a couple other classes suck, but you get the picture!

I am ready for Thanksgiving break next week! My plans this year, are not to go home. Yes-my mother will be on a trip with her best friend-good for her-and I will stay here and have Thanksgiving at my sisters, who lives in Safford. My dad, Anne, and my brothers will join us! I am very excited to see them(: Hopefully I wont' have too much homework over those few days. I'm trying to keep caught up now so that I won't!
My music is crazy right now, seeing as how I have a recital to perform for on Wednesday night. I sure hope I can be prepared enough! I just think of it as practice for not only my final for voice,(yes I have a final-its called Jury-I sing for all the choir directors), but also practice for my audition At the Y. I will be singing yet, another Italian piece, which dare I say is about kissing. Hmmmm.....



Anyway, i'll be sure to let all know how that goes!


So back to last week, I was so happy! I really had some good days! Its truly good to have the gospel in my life. And for once, I'm not stressed-even though I have a million things to do this week, I can honestly tell you I'm handeling it! It's great!


I had a really good relaxing weekend as well, which consisted of NO homework! yay! At least none that I felt like doing(: I went to a play on friday that the drama department did. A small musical actually-very good. It was one that the drama director here wrote. It was the most unique play I have ever seen. I can't even describe it! It was one that you have to go in with an open mind and if you are like me and like to analyze things and think deeply, well-you had to do that with this play, which is why I probably understood it really well!


Saturday, I cleaned up a bit and then finished watching Season 3 of Will and Grace. I borrowed it from a friend and needed to get it back to her so I watched about 10 episodes! Yeah-call me lazy but it was Saturday and I love that show!

After that, Hannah and I went paintballing with 3 guy friends of ours. Completely new experience for me that I had been wanting to try! So, [they reluctantly]gave the redhead(me) a gun(: Scary I know! But we had a great time, even when I got hit in the face. Yes-the paintball went right through my mask. I could still taste the paint in my mouth for at least an hour. Good times!

Now, as I said I have lots to do this week! I have an early morning tomorrow. I started getting up on tuesdays and thursdays at about 6 am to go play raquetball by myself-just as an energy boost! I am getting up early those days anyway because I started going to another class. Not for a credit, but I am joining in as a "guest" per se, to an Aurel Perceptions class. This will help me learn skills for an Aurel Skills test that I have to take as part of my BYU audition. Not to add to my already busy schedule but its not too bad and I need the skills! Whats nice is that my friend Travis is in there and is completely brilliant at that stuff so I can get some extra help!


Anywho, here I go....and go....and go.......

Remember what William Shakespeare said,
"Be great it act, as you have been in thought."

I'm going to meet Shakespeare someday!
