Well, it has certainly been a long time since I've been on here! I can never bring myself to journal (pen and paper? No thanks) and since I'm on the computer a lot, I'd figure I would try to get into a better habit of blogging. More for myself than for others, because honestly, who's gonna read this? Anyway, I'm now 17 years old, a senior in high school and I cannot wait until I get out of this Texas heck-hole for college. Speaking of college, Music Education is my current major with a minor in I don't know what. Maybe french? I hope to attend the University of Wyoming, my mom's alum, but I have to apply to BYU, as per my dad's alum and typical Mormon-ness. I just got back from the University of North Texas for my fourth and final year at All-State choir camp. I absolutely love going and this year I had the chance to meet Dr. David Childs, the amazing New Zealand born conductor/composer/person ever. Seriously. I was fangirling hard core. Last year I had the awesome life changing opportunity to make it into the Texas All-State Women's choir. Words cannot express how grateful I was just to make it in, let alone the memories I made there. It was incredible. I am still my wards chorister at church, and the Laurel class president. Not a big fan of my ward but you get what you get right? My school year ended with a boyfriend and a sad goodbye to all my graduating choir family, then the whole boyfriend thing lasted a month and 6 days. I don't know how I'm ever going to figure out picking a guy that'll last long enough to marry... We're still friends and it was good for both of us. Tomorrow, my dad, my sister and I will head off in the wee hours of the morning to travel to Utah for our second year of EFY at BYU-Provo. We'll also get to attend a special Pioneer Day celebration on Saturday at the Conference Center. I've been looking forward to this all summer, and I can't wait to get on the road! Let's just say, my dad is in for a treat, traveling with Sarah and I. Pizza Hut is still the Hut, glad I have two weeks off for this trip! Let's see how this summer goes!
