sickness never was happiness...

So... my mom and brother have both had soar throats and coughs. And I was happy not to have caught one, until yesterday morning. I woke up with an aching throat, and sometimes I cough. I also seem to have a little congestion, and It's very painful. I've been extra tired lately, so I slept through my alarm, and then I had to tell my ride to seminary that I wasn't going today. So... now I have to get ready for school.

Anyway.... I gotta go. Bye!

entertainment

I recently made a video with my brother, edited it and posted it on youtube. If you want to go watch it, maybe even rate it/comment it. (that'd be really nice of you. ^_^) ... here's the link for it:

Many friends of mine have watched it, and I've only had 1 bad review. All of the others are great, and I'm glad most of my friends have liked it. It's a joke video about learning how to "sing well" in "3 easy steps." The "training" we go through has nothing to do with singing. And there are even funny bloopers at the end.

It was extremely fun to make, and I hope to make more soon. Sometimes I think that I'd like to be in the movie business someday. I love to film, act, and edit... it's very amusing to go through the long process and see how it turns out in the end.

Today... My mom made a tasty breakfast of Biscuts and Gravy. I'd never had it before, but I loved it, and It was Aubrey's request. I also got a haircut, it's very nice. I love it, since last time I went to the hair place, they fried some of the ends. I'm glad that it looks nice and not fried anymore.

After my haircut, I drove back to my place and rode down to the airport to drop off my cousin Aubrey. We hugged her, and wished her a safe flight before driving off to return back to my house as quickly as possible so we wouldn't be late for a football game.

I also went to a friend of my families' house today to watch a BYU vs. Utah Football game. I ate tacos, chips with guacamole, and cookies and it was all so wonderfully put together. It was very delicious, and their home is a very comfortable setting, it's very nice.

Anyway... I was happy that our team (BYU) won a very close game. It was very thrilling to watch, and I normally don't watch football games.

After the game, my dad drove us to his friends' ice cream store. It was so cool! It had couches in the store, they were very comfortable, it was like a little lounge. The paint on the walls blended and made it a cozy environment. It had really good ice cream, and the whole place was just really enjoyable.

My dad even saw his friend, and we talked to him while eating ice cream on the sofa's. Then we came home, and now my mom's going to take me shopping! Sounds like fun, and hopefully I can get some warm jackets to go with this freezing weather.

See ya!

Thank you, Thanksgiving

I'm very happy right now, since this is the first big break from school in my sophmore year in high school. I got to sleep in, and soon I will take a shower, clean my room... etc. Then, at 3 we will leave to pick up my cousin Aubrey at the airport. =]

I'm excited for tomorrow, although I know it will be a big day, and most likely a long one, but I'm still looking forward to it.

Oh... my grandma sent me a fun little quiz to test my turkey knowledge. I didn't do too well on it, but my dad pretty much aced it. You should give it a try. It's pretty fun.

Well, since I have so much to do, and I need to stop procrastinating, I should probably get off of the computer soon.

See ya!

"Go Dog Go!"

So... the book "Go Dog Go" by P.D. Eastman, is about a bunch of dogs that can drive. And they drive to all kinds of places. Yep....pretty cool, I guess.
But what the whole point of this is....I got my license yesterday (November 13, 2007), and I can now officially drive w/o a legal guardian over the age of 21 in the car. =]
So... some of my friends ask me "how many phone books do you have to sit on to see over the wheel?" The answer is...none. First of all, I'm not that short. Second of all, technology is great and has made cars better than they used to be.
My friends all expect me to be able to drive them places such as the mall now, but I have to explain first of all, that I can only drive one friend at a time in the car for my first 6 months with my license. And second of all, I don't have my own car, and I also am not a personal chauffeur.

So...with all of this excitement, I drove myself to piano lessons yesterday, and my brother wanted to come along for the ride. So Christopher came with me to piano lessons just so he could be with me in the car while I'm driving. That was an extremely fun experience, and I'm glad he decided to join me. =]

Well... since I have much homework to do, I should probably get off of the computer and do it.

Testing, testing, 1..2...3....

If you're wondering about the title, I had 3 tests today, all in a row. Talk about stress!
I had to finish a writing prompt for English.
Then I had a math test on factoring perfect square trinomials, and adding to make perfect square trinomials.
And then I had a spanish test.

So... I'm pretty tired. And I have to finish a History review for a History test tomorrow.
I'm just glad that I already took my Biology test. =]
What a relief!

So... on another note, I'm pretty much excited about this saturday. For two reasons:
1. I will be hanging out with the Laurels/Priests (16-18 year old girls and boys at my church) And I get to go boating, etc. w/ them.
2. I will complete my last driving hour (1 hr. driving, 1 hr. observing) for driving school from 8-10 am that day. Which means I can go to DPS and get my license!

Speaking of driving, I have my 2nd-to-last driving hour today! I will go from 8-10 pm and then come home and either do homework, or go to sleep.

Well... my mom's calling me in for a smoothie, and my brother's about to eat it. SO..... Goodbye!

Busy as a Bee

I guess you could say that school is making me extremely busy. And that's why I haven't had time to post anything. But anyway... seminary's really fun, and school's okay. I've had a ton of migraines in a row this week. I had 5 in a total of 7 days, (1 week).

Sorry to my mom for not updating as much as you'd like for me to. I'll try to update more as I go on myspace and facebook for my freetime. Well... I have a huge math test tomorrow, and the review is pretty long. I better get to work!

Thanks, and goodbye!
