i feel the need, the need to blog?

I have no idea what to actually blog about, but I have had an off day from beginning to now. And I usually feel better after I complain and stuff about my life.Well I woke up late. kind of. I woke up on time, but got out of bed late. Which just kind of set my day off wrong. Then I failed a quiz in sports med. awesome! and then I just sucked it up in choir, as always. Lunch was fun. We had PB&J's and devils/angels food cake. Then the rest of school was just a blurr of frustration and turmoil.
After school I talked with my dear friend McKenna in Grand Canyon and that was nice to get out a few of my concerns and problems. Then I went home and watched some American Idol... which didn't help. You know something is wrong when you cry when you watch American Idol. haha. After that I helped my mother with the Chicken Enchilladas for dinner and got ready for Volleyball. The Enchilladas got out of the oven just as I was getting ready to leave. I put it on a paper plate and ate them on the ride over. kind of... I just held them in my hand the whole way, with the exception of when I pulled out of my driveway and burned my entire mouth on the lava peice of enchillada. awesome!
At volleyball we had to forfeit our first match because there was an insane miscommunication about what time our game was. But we did play one match, which we won. For once! After that I chatted with some team mates for a few minutes then made the drive clear out to Spring Glen for Young Womens. Which was fun. Then I talked with one of my best friends Jenna Lee, aka my therapist, or... one of them. Then I went and hung out with her family for a few minutes. I then sped home because I was late and in trouble...
We had scriptures and prayer as a family and then I wrote a magnificent paper on Alan Menken. Who turned out to be a pretty cool dude in the end. But still seriously boring to write about.
Hmm.. I feel like I should be doing personal progress right now. Instead of "venting" out my frustrations on the pointless blog that really will get me no where in life. awesome!
I cannot wait for the rest of this week! I have Club Volleyball practice tomorrow, which is always fun. I have missed my volleyball girlies dearly! It should be a good time. :) Thursday I have this date auction date to go on, which should be just as fun. Friday I have the swim banquet and a potential day date for Morp. And Saturday is Morp! I cannot wait to get covered in paint with all my friends. This is going to be an awesome week! Except for the test I'm going to fail... awesome!
In the words of my mother I think it is time I "wrap this up."
Good Night y'all! Thanks for reading.

busy-ness.

holy hannah. life has gotten so busy so quickly! Even when I don't have a spring sport. well, kind of. With FCCLA, ProStart, Choir, Morp date stresses, and some fun in there.. and school! how could I forget... well with all those things going on with new things coming along everyday. everyday I seem to be so busy. And when I'm not doing anything, I'm lazing around like right now. I should not be blogging. I should be doing my horrendous "Animal Farm" packet for English. Or cleaning my room. Instead I'm blogging and on pinterst. Awesome. I feel so old. I've been kind of going non-stop since about the seventh grade. With the exception of a few summer days and vacations here and there. I cannot believe how quickly my adolescence has gone by, and it how quickly it continues..maybe even picking up speed! Last Sunday was my wards new beginnings. I am now the oldest girl there and the Laurel Pres. It seemed like only yesterday when it was the new beginnings I was being welcomed into. I was the only girl to be coming in throughout the following year. During the new beginnings I got to sit in a fancy chair, they game me a crown and a sash(like what they give you at pageants) that said "Daughter of a King." When I was that age I did not even fathom what that statement truly meant. sure growing up I sang "I am a Child of God" so many times I could probably sing it backwards. But at the naive age of 11 almost 12, I could have never understood the blessings of being a "Daughter of God." anyways... As I was reflecting on this experience I got a little teary eyed, thinking of all the young women that were older than me that I had looked up to. And then realizing I have to be what they were for me, for the young girls in my ward and the newest girlies just coming in. I ended bawling throughout the entire meeting because I am so old and my days in the young womens program are so numbered. I don't believe I have taken advantage of the young womens program. Because I've been so busy since the beginning.
After the meeting closed I was talking with Jenna, one of my closest friends. I told her that I only have one girls camp left in me. and that I had a little over a year left in young womens with her. To my surprise she started crying! It's incredible how close her and I have become over the past year or so. She will be someone I miss the most that is outside of my family when I "grow-up" and "move away"...
Something else that doesn't help is that fact that Jack is getting ordained on Sunday. My baby brother, holding the Preisthood. Jack! A preisthood holder! Which only makes me feel older. Soon enough I'm going to be a mom and an aunt. with the days of adolescense long since passed.
I need to knock it off. Stop wasting time whining, and more time doing the fun stuff i won't be able to do when I am old! (no offence, older people...)
I feel like I need to do something crazy! Maybe that will be my next post, illustrating what crazy thing I have done next. I cannot wait!
Thanks for listening to me whine, as always!
