But I still hold strong. So ha. (:

SOPHMORE YEAR!
So! Sophmore year is pretty intense! I have World History with Mr. Gunn!, Spanish with Mrs. Moyer!, PE, Algebra 2, and English.
World History- So, I keep hearing so many stories about how absolutely amazing Mr. Gunn is, and he is really funny when he's not teaching, but the class is BORING. And I made the mistake of not taking honors, so it's really easy, which I guess is good, since I have so many other hard classes. But aaauuuggghhh. Boring!
Spanish- This has got to be my favorite class and my worst subject. I'm seriously TERRIBLE at Spanish. However, I have the best. Seat. Ever. I'm surrounded by friends. First off, my good friends Anissa, Dana, and Holly are all in that class, but I don't sit next to them. I'm surrounded by my friends Tyler, Nick, Brandon, Clay, and Jose. We are all terrible at Spanish except for Nick, and we always make fun of him for his smarts! (In a good way. (: )It's amazingly fun. :)
PE- I'm sooo lucky I have one of my best school friends in this class, Stella. I made tons of friends in this class, including my beastly water polo friend, Debbie. She's so cute and nice and thoughtful. We're in a basketball unit. It's pretty fun, actually. The teacher is Rashe, who has the reputation of being a perv, but I think every one is stupid, and he is just very nice and friendly. :) I like him.
Algebra 2- Blehhh. This is a terrible class. The teacher, Mrs. Adnani, is okay at teaching, but she's so so so mean. She calls us stupid all the time and says we're all going to fail our class. One guy almost broke down crying. BLEHHH.
English- Our teacher is so tiny and cute and her voice is sooo high! It's quite a fun class, though we have TONS of homework. The whole class is basically friends with each other, and I sit between two awesome people I always talk to, Katie and Eddie. :)
School is bearable enough, can you tell?

End of Summer Blues...
*sigh*
Summer's almost over.
Boohoo.
But in some ways I'm excited for school to start. Just to see how things are. but anyway...
On the amazingly bright side!
Ryan and Andrea and Jakob are home! Yes yes yes! Yay! It's so fun seeing them again. I may not seem very social, but I really do love having them home. Jakob's so cute now, and Andrea's got a nice little baby bump! Yusss! I get another one! Haha. And Ryan returned with a very European beard. Nice. :)
This has been a very interesting intense summer and I'll miss it! :D

GGICF
Golden
Gate
International
Choir
Festival
=
AMAZINGLY FUNNN.
Where else can you meet super friendly Finnish people, meet people that actually GET your choir jokes, go on cruises, sing ALL day, explore the "scary" dark basement of a Berkley college, and play Red Rover for two hours straight with people you've never met before?
No where else, my friend.
No where else.
But seriously, it WAS a blast.
I sat next to my friend Kathleen, a girl from Finland named Linda, and Anothony, a very feminine but hilarious Colorado-inian? Every day for three hours we got to work with composers from England, California and Finland. My favorite composer EVERRRR was there, Bob Chilcott. He's such a cute little British man, and is very nice. :)
Then every night we would perform. IT was kinda difficult listening to choirs that are WAYYY better than you. But luckily there were some not-so-good ones there as well, so we weren't totally down.
In fact, in the children's category, we got 1st place in the historical category, and 2nd in folk (AKA REALLY good).
...And I have absolutely no patience for blogging, so now I say buh bye.

Randomness #3
Long time no randomness. (:
I’m drowning. I’m drowning, but it’s a happy kind of drowning. Drowning as I immerse myself in a pool of colored leaves. My eyes are filled with red, orange, yellow, and deep shades of purple. My neighbors stare, but I carry on with my delight. The leaves fly around me as if they themselves are alive. They dance and I join, twirling in circles and doing any lame dance move I can think of. They seem much more graceful than me. I dance on, however, adding lyrics this time. I’m surprised at myself, for the song is a familiar one. One from my childhood. How fitting. I stand there, trying to reminisce and finally realize why I can’t- in this pool of leave, I am there again. How can I look back o the present?
Enjoy.

My Amazing YW Leaders and Homemade Slip and Slides
My young women leaders are AMAZING. I just got back from a trip to "Hawaii" they had planned for us.
First, they picked us up in a "limo" (really a mini van with the words limo painted across) and gave us a lay (spelling?)and a flower in our hair. Then we arrived at the dozier's house, only to receive a CANDY lay this time. It was decked out in beautiful hawaiian decor. we had a WONNNDERFUL dinner, with super cute decorations, and not to mention yummy food. Sister Greco, my second/third mom, made an 8 layered jello creation in the colors of the young women values! WOW! After much talking and goofing off, we went swimming. When we had splashed around for quite a while, our YW leaders came out with Virgin Pina Colatas. :) Of course. In martini glasses with umbrellas and super cute spoons! So we sipped that while talking in the hot tub.
After that came more swimming, and when it was about time to leave, our Young Women leaders let us KEEP the martini glasses, spoons, and super cute coasters in the shapes of flowers. Then they also gave us adorable cupcakes that was decorated like a beach, complete with the ocean, made with frosting, a cardboard palm tree, and a minty beach ball!
THESE WOMEN ARE AMAZING.
I did the dishes for them. It was the least I could do. (:
Speaking of water activities...
A couple days ago my friend Cassi and I had just gotten back from swimming. We wanted to dry off for a bit, so we layed in the sun. We got dry in probably 2 minutes. It was THAT hot.
Then random happening #1 occured.
Let's fry and egg on the sidewalk!
Which failed, and we ended up having a a HUGE water fight, aka random happening #2.
We then got TOOOOOO hot again, so Cassi (random happening #3) soaked her towel and wrapped it around herself.
I then commented on how slippery it was.
Leading to the paramount random happening #4. HOME MADE SLIP AND SLIDE!
Consisting of:
4 wet towels
3 trash bags
1 hose
2 totally insane girls and 1 partially sane one
2 guy friends that laughed at us the whole time
Yes. All of those ingredients are MANDATORY.
I LOVE YOU, SUMMER!
