Goodbye Sophomore Year!

This is probably the most  I have ever been excited for summer, and after some reflective thinking, I know exactly why.

A. The last two years I have gone to summer school. I have forgotten what it is like to be excited for a true summer, where I have planned activities that I have to wake up for, but I actually look forward to going to them.

B. Activities that I have to wake up early for, but I actually look forward to going to them.

C. This has been the toughest year academically that I have ever encountered. With 3 advanced classes including History, English and Chemistry(barf), Geometry, Advanced Newspaper, Spanish Tres, I had a lot on my plate.

D. Not to mention my social schedule in full swing. Vocal lessons, youth group, youth BAND, CYT classes, being involved in FOUR shows this year (Curtains, Singing In The Rain, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, and Annie), friends beginning to drive, so we are out on the town every which way, and more. I'm a busy bee. Now that everything has practically ended this week, I've spent every night at home. Which is actually really, really nice.

As much I as I adore my life, and I really do, I'm totally excited to go to camp and escape in a different world for a while. And I know that it's stressed that that's not really the point of camp. That you need to translate the things you learn there to life, and I really do. But there's no denying that when you go to Youthfront you feel like you've landed in a different planet. When I think about camp, I get a feeling that I only get when I think about camp. I'm so anxious to get back there, for sure.

Only a half a day left! Then I will never have to endure Chemistry or Geometry ever ever ever. I can make it, I certainly can!

Tomorrow night I'm going a wedding of a dear friend (I love weddings, drinks all around!) and then getting psyched to head to Indiana! And if you've talked to me at ALL recently, you know why I'm so excited:)

I really wish I could think of something interesting to blog about, but all I can really think about right now is summer.

Show Week

This time I'm in Annie, and it begins THIS WEEK.

Crazy. This show went by way faster than Seven Brides, which is odd to think about since we had half the rehearsal time last time around.

Here's hoping everything goes well, and we all don't drive each other crazy. After all, we do have a show to put on.

:D
