SNOW DAY!!

Glad I finally got a snow day my senior year. Great day of sleeping in, sledding and china buffet with friends :P Except now all that snow is melting because of the rise in temperature and turning the streets into slushy rivers...

Mall of America

Adventured to the Mall of America to see prom dresses and a fashion show! I felt like a princess in all the dresses :) You would think that I would have gone shopping because it was the mall of America.. but all I bought was a burrito and a cinnamon roll, ha ha. Also the guy in the shark costume started hitting on me...that was awkward...

Cool People Thursdays

Only cool people spend their Thursdays with jump ropes around their hips that are attached to scooters and dragging little children behind them. Gotta love working with kids :P

Show choir hang over!

My body is in pain, my hair looks like it got attacked by a small animal and I have sleep till 1. This means show choir hang over! Yesterday we competed at Waconia Star Power, and OASC got people's choice award and 2nd runner up! Our show is so opposite regular show choir this year with songs like "Enter sandman" and "Dream on" and costumes such as custom fitting trench coats, it's quite the creepy show actually and very intense!! This year we've also won Grand Champion at Altoona, something OASC has not done for 4 years, also 4th runner up and the Spirit award at Colby. If you've never been in show choir, you'd never understand that it is so much more than just singing songs and dancing. Show choir teaches about team work, dedication (especially since we spend a good 5 hours practicing each week, and three times a year 36 or so hours), maturity, problem solving and it's just really fun! Show choir has helped me met great friends and we are a big family. It's a great creative outlet and it's impossible to describe that rush you get when you perform and the audience is going crazy. Hooray for show choir!! <3

Lollipop

I really have nothing interesting to write about..so I'm going to write about lollipops! I love lollipops I'm pretty sure they are the most exciting in the candy family. I love the ones with gum in them or I especially like the swirly ones, they just make me think of childhood and just make me happy inside. My dad use to always bring me the big (ok, they looked so much more massive when I was a little child) swirly ones when he came home from a business trip. I use to think the candy was so cool because it was from a whole different state..my dad told me later in life that he would just buy the candy from the gas station down the street..wow..thank you, Father. I remember trying to lick those lollipops for days on end to try to finish it..I don't think I ever really succeed though..and they ended up i the trash eventually..but I was determined none the less!! I hope I am never too old for lollipops :)

Sandwiches and Valentines Day

Happy Valentines day!! Or single awareness day...Today I sent my Valentines day alone, but I'm over it, ha ha! I'm happy for everyone who had a lovely day with their significant other. My high light of today would have to be though, my brother Matt telling me he made a sandwich this morning but he had no idea where it went..needless to say I found it randomly in our food pantry after some looking. Even though it had sat there untouched for 10 hours, Matt did not hesitate to eat it. Oh men :P
