Jr. Year (so far!)

Jr. year has begun.

Technically, it began a little while ago. Term one is now almost finished. I haven’t been able to post for a while, so here's my catch-up post for the first 2 months of school-

Special Needs Mutual started back up. Rita's a lot more emotional this year, but I still love going every week! It's weird to have so many youth councilors in my grade, but I'm enjoying that too. I love SN Mutual!

Jazz Band for the 3rd year in a row.

Making the Shakespeare Team. Adding 6 am rehearsals to Jazz rehearsals? Bring it on.

Football Games. Good times-especially with good friends.

Fall Leadership for FCCLA. So much fun! Great speakers and workshops and lots of good times to be had with my fellow officers. (Love you guys!)

Shakespeare Competition. What an awesome experience. Our school did very well, (Chior-1st, Anna's monologue-1st, Keaton's and Ian's scene-2nd, Ensemble-3rd, Sweepstakes (overall)-1st), Le Mis was AMAZING, Hamlet was BRILLIANT, our ensemble scene was great (the gun actually went off!! There was a silent breakdancing party back stage after we exited), the rounds I watched were great, the judges of those rounds (all of the judges I listened to, actually) had mind-blowing things to say, and we got to hear from the Shakespeare Festival's founder. I had such a great time! I learned a lot of new things about acting. I made lots of new friends, and strengthened bonds with some old friends. And the best part of the Competition....

General Conference! I was lucky enough to watch both Saturday sessions at the SUU institute building with the Chamber Choir and some other friends of mine. I was able to be with them when the Pres. Monson gave the Missionary Announcement. The spirit was so strong that day, I'm glad I was able to watch it!

Conference in General in Seminary. Wow. I love seminary.

My sister and I worked on the Service Project we started together.

Fall Break: Goodbye Wisdom Teeth! According to my mom, I was hilarious right before they put me under. I felt pretty sane during the whole ordeal, but looking back the next day, I was crazy. It was great! (If you want specific stories, feel free to either ask me or my mother).

What's coming up next?

·         The rest of Fall Break.

·         Sadies!

·         The FCCLA service project.

·         The school-wide service project.

·         The zombie run with Kevin.

·         Halloween.

Bring it on!
