hello! i am in digital photo and there is absolutely nothing to do, so i will update! shocking, right? i am SO GLAD school is almost over. my classes are fine in themself, but i'm just kinda getting sick of going to school every day. it's getting kinda stressful. anyway, let's focus on something exciting!
last weekend i went to LA with my choir. imagine 5 choir girls in a van with my parents. it was AMAZING! so so fun. :) we got there late friday, and all saturday we worked with clinicians, musicians, and other choir members. the clinician was super nice and was from venezuela. she gave us advice on how to improve ouselves (aka SMILE FOR ONCE!!!) and then we went to watch the american boy choir. oh. my gosh. it's a all boys boarding school for grades 3-7 and none of their voices have changed yet, so they can sing sooo high. they were pretty amazing! i was so impressed. and jealous. i wish i could sing that high!
anyway, after that we went to a rhythm and dancing instructor named carlos... something? he was absolutely HILARIOUS. he taught us to seperate our body from our mind... the pat head rub belly type thing.
next, we had mass practice. oh man. it was NOT good. no one knew our part. but somehow, we managed through the performance and mi madre said we were good. i don't know how accurate that it. but whatever. we survived. fast forward to the actual concert -- the LA choirs were quite good, but one of the choirs... oh man. there were two amazing opera singers, but the rest of the choir was catastrophic. part of the thing was that it was small and they couldn't hold their parts. i felt bad... afterwards, we went to a restaurant called yang chow (after yang bee chow, our director :D) and stuffed our faces with chinese food and oranges. they also had very accurate fortune cookies. :)
it was a great trip, and the funniest part was that the car rides were the best part, we sang, we made up a story for 2 hours about purple pigs and aretha franklin and we made up a rap. and talked. a LOT. :)
of course!
oh and by the way my friend steven says hi! :)

One OHHH!!
As high schoolers put it.
So, it's been like two months! Time for an update!
I've been really busy with all my classes, hence the no writing. They're okay, boring of course, but okay. Luckily my fifth period I do nothing in (it's digital photo ;D) except talk and do homework, so I can catch up there.
Soooooo Christmas was fun. I got some really random stuff and I liked it all. Thanks to Amy, I loved the book and purse! <3 (I already thanked everyone else, so :P)
Man, I'm not much of a details person. But I guess I'll try. Christmas seemed to fly by. It's as if it almost never happened, minus suddenly having tons of new stuff. :) We never even finished decorating our tree. Christmas eve we went to the Bronson's like every year, and I was the angel in the Christmas skit. The whole skit was made up of teenagers and older, since we're all grown up now. :)
My presents that I have also seemed to be a success. Don LOVED the movie I got his, Indiana Jones (okay, he despises the movie with a fiery passion, but the look on his face was priceless!), and Dad wore his "My Teenaged Daughter Thinks I'm Cool" shirt I gave him today. I gave a lotta other stuff but NO TOO LAZY TO WRITE.
Err, that was kinda out of order.
But anyway, my winter break has been fun in general. I have the blessing of having extremely random friends that love to have good clean (but totally random and weird) fun. I did gingerbread houses with Krista (she did a BYU dorm, I did a U of U one), played a lot of pranks (innocent!), went to a couple parties, and just had fun. For new years I went to my friend Cassi's party. I would list the people, but it'd be kinda pointless because you guys don't know them, though I wish you did! Well, you know Peter Nyholm. Peter was there. Haha. Still friends since preschool. You know you have entertaining friends when playing Pictionary causes you to cry of laughter and Sardines can't be played because no one can shut up well enough. Ahh, good times.
Of course, I had homework over the break, but it was a group project about Macbeth. A video. (Sound familiar, Nikol? ;D) I spent today filming this masterpiece, complete with a dance scene to the tune of Oops! I Did it Again. I have a feeling we're going to get an A. :)
That about wraps up my life right now. DREADING going back to school, I don't like learning. :( I jsut like to talk in all my classes. :D I'm such a teenager, but apparently a cool one, according to Don.
What do you think?
Not that I care, I am a teenager after all. ;D
