This is fun...

So I changed the background... personally I think it detracts from the actual blog... But its awesome anyways.
So I told you about the book, and I started writing in math. Don's ask why, just bear with me. So,  I got the first paragraph done, and then I realized; I need names! Which, sadly is the one of the hardest things with writing.
Any ideas?
And (Drum roll please) I made an email for you if you have question!
you.ask.me.123@gmail.com
I expect you to not be dumb with that.

Books

So I know I have mentioned writing on here before, but if you are new I will briefly explain. 

I find great joy in writing. I have attempted two different ones, but eventually gave up on them both. And I have been dying to write again, but have had no ideas. Anyways, moving on. 

So my brother is in town visiting. I got booted out of my room, and our extra room went to their kids. So, I am on the couch. Last night, I had a dream, and normally I just toss aside my dreams and forget about them, but I was thinking of this one while getting ready for school, and I realized I could use it for a story idea. Not the whole thing, but most of it. I say this because at the end I think the people turned into Smurfs or something. I will probably do a ton of writing this week because I will be driving to California for my choir tour! 

So the whole telling you about the couch thing probably had nothing to do with the dream, but I think it might have.  

Anyways, I will honestly try to blog more, but I have been busy. I am doing my best!

Have you ever... ?

Have you ever watched a movie, or read a book, and wished you were a certain character?

I do this a lot. I guess you could say I am an imaginative person. I day dream about the weirdest things, and this is one of them. Any time I love a movie or book, there is a character I always love. Something about them, makes me wish I was them.
I have been thinking about this a lot recently, and why I do it. And I think I figured it out.
I think it's because we see those characters, and see how well their life worked out. And here we are, living life slowly. Its not a 2 hour movie, and then we know how our life was. Life isn't a "fast read" and quite often, it isn't a "page turner".
I think the two reasons are that either I am unsettled with my own life and I don't know how it will turn out, or that they have something I want to have.
Anyways That is what has been on my mind. Hope you enjoy.

Lets Get Real.

So this morning I went into my bathroom, and what did I find on my mirror? A friendly little spider. Okay, maybe not so friendly. Very creepy actually.
So what was my reaction? You are probably guessing kill it. If you did, you are very wrong. I simply grabbed my things and re-located (hoping it would disapear and be gone for good). Then tonight I went into my bathroom...
And he was still there! But this time I actually looked at it. He was about the size of a quarter now. And his legs were super long and see through. He was super creepy. Now, I don't especially care for spiders, but I am far from loving them. My brother has like 50 tarantuals and I go and check them out every once in a while.. I think they are awesome. This one little guy just got to me. No joke.
ANYWAYS. I decided that since it hadn't moved in more than 12 hours it was going to have to be killed. I gave it space for that long, I wanted my bathroom back. But, it took me 30 minutes to actually do it. It was the most awful thing ever.
But, I did learn something about that spider. He must really love himself cause he was on the mirror for like 20 hours.

Hard times

The other morning I was eating a bowl of Lucky Charms. You should know that I love Lucky Charms. LOVE. I don't eat them the normal way... I eat the cereal part first, then eat the marshmallows. While I was doing this, I was thinking about life. And then I thought that eating this bowl of cereal was like life. You struggle to do something, or have a hard time, then it gets good. So like picking out the ceral, it's annoying, but it's worth it in the end.

Update

So it has been a while since I have posted. My excuse is that I was super busy. All of last week I was never actually home until after five. Why? I was helping people with their choir auditions, and working on mine.
That's right, I tried out for choir. I tried out last Friday. I wont lie, it was a tough weekend because I wanted to see the list. I felt like I did good until I found out about all of my other friends auditions. They all sang more than once, but I only sang once. Knowing that, I thought I wasn't going to get in.
I tried out for our schools highest choir, and I never really knew how bad I wanted in until I was waiting for today. I was dreaming about the audition, and I messed up every time, and So as you can guess, I was super nervous I wouldn't get in.
So I'm guessing you are wondering if I got in or not. My teacher is doing call back this year, so I wouldn't officially be in if I was put on the list, but I will gladly tell you, That I did make it to callbacks! I am super excited. I know I could still not make it, but since I made it this far, I feel pretty good about myself.
Anyways, I guess I should let you in on what else is going on. I passed all of my classes, and will be going on tour April 4th. I am super excited! It is the beginning of a new term, and all is well in life.
One thing I think I might do is make an email for the people who read this to ask questions, and give ideas of things you might want me to blog about... we will see though.

My Ward

In the past month or so, I have realized how incredible my ward is. There is a boy who has a muscular problem, and their family is in financial need. He needs multiple surgeries, and they have run out of money.
My ward is incredible, along with so many other members. They are putting together a fundraiser for this family. If you want to know more about this family or want to help, the link is as follows.

I have seen them jump in to help others, and they are almost always willing to pitch in. They are great!
