January 2010

Hey, it's the last week of January and a lot of stuff has happened. Here's a quick bulleted list:

  • I turned eighteen! Which means that my library card has expired :( so now i have to get a new one.
  • I survived my school's Totalitarian Simulation. We simulated a totalitarian society, and I was in the party. It was a neat experience, and I now hold much greater value on my freedoms as an American!
  • My car died, but then was revived thanks to the smartness of my uncle, and the generosity of my parents.
  • I went to the UTA Conference at UVU. it was really cool. The keynote speaker was Ann Bogart. She gave an awesome speech. I took pages of notes, it not only gave me good tips for acting, but great information for life in general.
  • I have been given the opportunity to be the lead in my favorite play. I'm so thrilled! I am Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing! I'm so excited! the performance is in May, those who would like to come see it (it's being put on by the high school) contact me, and I'll get you more info.
  • My best friend left on his mission last month, and I'm excited for him. Every letter from him makes me feel like a zillion dollars, and every time I write a letter to him, I feel so much better. It's a great thing. To all young men reading this blog: go on a mission, it's the best thing for you!
  • Christmas & New Year's were great. I got to spend the whole time with my family, whom I love!
well, that's about all I have time for, I'll try to get more on soon.
I wish you all happy lives happy days, happy hearts!

I'm disappointed to see that your most exciting thing, or person rather, to look forward to this year is not mentioned once in your blog! :) Congrats again on getting the part, Miss Beatrice!
