  1. POV: You check your email. There's a message from your show choir director in your inbox, so you open it up. It's for high school show choir auditions. You didn't know they were so soon!! A wave of panic, excitement, and almost sadness washes over you.

    There are so many forms you have to fill out before auditioning. So. Many. Forms.

    BUT I'M EXCITED!!! :D

    I cannot believe show choir's done. It's surreal.

    But I am in LOVE with the earrings, and I'm stoked that I get to keep them forever. I'll snatch a picture of them when I get home to show them off because they're so pretty!!!!

     

    Also... ow. It's been 26 weeks and 2 days (184 days) since my ankle sprain. My whole leg has been affected at this point, and I get weird tightness or clicking in places that there's *probably* not supposed to be tightness and clicking. Strange.

      It's the dancing I'm more worried about, haha. So... sore...

      NOTHING is more fun than stage makeup. Being sore is miserable, but you got it!! Enjoy! 

      Yeah…the pfp is hurting my brain.

      At least after this you will be less sore, no?

      Good luck with the dancing!

  9. I'm in Health Class, and we all just took the "True Colours" personality test (the free version), and what I got is scarily accurate. It matches up with my 4w1 Enneagram type, too. 

    Your true color is green!

    Others often describe you as extremely intelligent. You have an innate desire to do things to the best of your ability, and take pride in your work. You set the standard for everyone else at work. To you, work is truly enjoyable. Even on the weekends, you can’t stand the thought of wasting a day by doing nothing, and always try to fit as much into each day as possible.

    You are also a big thinker. You enjoy talking with others about abstract, philosophical ideas. You enjoy thinking about the future and all of its possibilities. You believe that you should never stop learning, and enjoy learning new information simply for your own enjoyment. In the workplace, you are a creative “idea person” who comes up with creative and practical solutions to problems.

    You are very independent. Although you enjoy spending time with others, you need your private time each day to recharge. This gives you time to process everything.

    Individuals with green personalities do well in careers that allow them to apply all of the “big ideas” they have. They typically succeed in careers within higher education, science, technology development, and medicine.

     

    Also. Today is the show choir finale. It's very very bittersweet. :(:

      It was good to read through it all.

  10. Random fact about me:

    This is the closest thing to social media that I have. Anyone else out there not allowed to have social media? :D

    But here's where it gets EVEN MORE interesting. I'm not allowed to have Google on my phone. Or Safari. Or any internet app. :P

    I get made fun of for it but I honestly just think it's funny xD

    I also just got kicked out of the library D:<

     And lately I've been sad for legitimately no reason. But it is what it is, you know?

    *clears throat* AND NOW I SHALL WRITE!

    This was a mess of a status update but I'm bored out of my mind so you are all at my mercy >:P 

    THAT'S ALL! SEE YOU GUYS AROUND! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA *rides away on a hippopotamus I got for Christmas--because only a hippopotamus would do*

      Me too! this is the closest thing I have to social media, I wrote my parents an entire essay asked my parents if I could have snapchat but, no surprise they said no but I don't really care anymore. I have the shard! You guys are all I need!

  11. HI GUYS! *waves emphatically*

    That's all! Bye guys!

  12. Oh man. I'm trying not to cry as I write this. 

    Yesterday was incredible.

    Both show choirs (JV--Subwoofers and Varsity--Leaders of the Pack) had to be at the competition at 10am.

    Subwoofers got second place in the JV division, and I'm so proud of them. They've worked so hard!

    I don't even know where to start for us. We all got ready and stuff (there was some drama that went down and... yikes) and hung out for about six hours because we performed at 5:30.

    They had donuts at the comp and they were so good it's not even funny. So I bought three. :D And then there was also hot chocolate and I couldn't resist. So I was on a sugar high for a while before the show, and then I got super tired and sat in a corner for twenty minutes.

    Firkins then rounded everyone up to go to our homeroom, and he pulled out these papers with everyone's names on them. We'd written notes to each other on the papers a couple weeks ago, and he handed them out last night. I was crying so hard I couldn't even read the whole thing, and then I had to redo half my makeup because I'd cried it all off.

    Then we went to warm-up and went over some parts of the show that needed just a quick run-through. And Firkins had us stand in a circle and sing the ballad. Most of us were holding hands. I made it to the second verse before I started crying--and THEN Firkins started going around and hugging us one-by-one. I was literally sobbing xD I couldn't even sing! So the costume moms passed out tissues and we couldn't go back to redo our makeup so it was what it was and we went on stage and slayed.

    We got best costumes, best choreography, best vocals, and grand champions. And with it, we celebrated the first time EVER that Leaders has gone undefeated.

    I will miss that group so much. We have one last performance on Tuesday, and then we're done.

    *sobs*

    I shall go cry in the corner now because I'm so happy but so sad all at the same time. :):

      I know I’m late, but that’s something that deserves many tears. Forever. Awesome job, and don’t be sad to cry! It’s terrible when something so amazing ends.

  13. Tomorrow is my last competition with Leaders of the Pack ever. 

    *bawls*

    Today was our last rehearsal, and I lost it during our cheer. The cheer goes like this:

    "We are family! I got all my Leaders with me!" And I couldn't even say the words because I was crying so hard. Man, we're all gonna be a mess tomorrow. :)

  14. AHHHHH GUYS HELP!

    My writing contest submission is due later today and I don't have a title for it!

    Here's the submission. It's based off of Megan from the Reckoners, and this takes place during Steelheart right before the climax.

    Spoiler

    A crimson blaze flares across my palm. I stare at the flickering light, but my mind is not with the illusion.

    My heart is pounding hard.

    I can’t believe this. 

    I’m supposed to be preparing to protect Steelheart, the Epic I was supposed to be working for the whole time, right? But all I can think about is the Epic nerd from Newcago who sucks at metaphors. Like, really sucks.

    He’s all I can think about. Not my plan. Not my pay. 

    David.

    I picture him so clearly, almost as if I’m looking at his picture. He’s wearing the same ugly heather blue T-shirt he’s worn forever; his obsessed-over, brand-new, black leather Reckoner jacket; his worn rifle slung over his shoulder; and those extremely unattractive cargo pants (though of course he’d wear them. Nerd). 

    But above all, I can feel that I miss him. Every small detail of his face, of the way he moves, the way he is, makes me miss him. Which bugs me, because as soon as he knows I’m one of them, as soon as he knows I possess the powers that turn us Epics malevolent… I know he’d hate me.

    I watch the flames dance on my skin, reminding myself that I’m not supposed to care about him–I’m supposed to hate him. 

    Supposed to kill him. 

    But… he did say he was in love with me the day I died.

    I flick a few of my fingers, and the fire, in turn, leaps. I let it burn brighter, and my anger grows hotter.

    Really, Megan? Seriously? This is stupid. The Reckoners will be at Soldier Field to assassinate Steelheart when dawn breaks, which, for the sake of Newcago, is the last thing we need. The economy will collapse, and so will the government. 

    I just wish David would see it that way.

    But no, he wants to avenge his father who died at Steelheart’s hand. Not that that’s bad. It’s just…

    I don’t think he gets how many people’s dads have died because of Epics. It’s not like he’s some special chosen one who’s going to actually kill Steelheart after everyone else who’s tried and failed. I bet he thinks he’ll succeed and gain glory because he spent the last ten years of his life studying us.

    Good. This is good–I’m getting myself ready to fight him. I have to stay mad.

    I throw the last of my sensitivity towards David and the others into my little fire. I can almost smell it burning.

    And then I snuff it out, though the flames inside me burn hotter than ever. 

    I rise from my chair, accidentally bumping the table with my knee, knocking over my near-empty glass of lemonade.

    Not staying to clean it up, I start for the door, strapping my mobile to my arm and reaching for my red Reckoner jacket.

    Huh. I didn’t know I still had it. I thought I’d thrown it out.

    I don’t want it anymore.

    It feels wrong to me now, and the color’s too bright in my dusty, dark, dirty (not to mention damaged) overstreet apartment. Besides, it reminds me of the Reckoners too much.

    Maybe I can use it. Maybe when I look at the bright red fabric, I’ll think of fire.

    Firefight–me

    Maybe when I look at it, I’ll see them burn, just like they burned me.

    My mind is pleased with the compromise, but my heart still beats unsteadily.

    Come on, Megan.

    I pull on the jacket anyway because it’s the only one I have at the moment and glower as I lock my shiny steel door. Keeping my head low and my scowl painted on my face, I jog across the street, my hands lingering near my holsters, ready to react.

    I guess it’s time to finish this.

    My issue is I need a title. I could simply call it "Firefight", or something like "The Fire Inside Her", or perhaps something along the lines of "White-Hot". 

    Any and ALL suggestions are so welcome--and hurry because I have like one hour to submit this!!! :eek:

  15. I'm home 'sick' today. :P

    I needed a mental day but couldn't figure out how to tell my parents that, so I didn't. And I do have a slight headache and my stomach is upset so there. 

    That's it. Hopefully this will help me. :)

    Listen to this playlist. It's beautiful.

    Onward and Upward is basically my villain's theme song :D

    Noble Blood is basically Elysia's theme song B) 

    Anyway this is a collection of some of my favorite songs <3 I hope you enjoy!

  17. *drags hands down face and groans*

    So... I kinda knew it was coming. But it's still weird. 

    My parents are starting to look at other churches we could try out and see what we like. I think I would have struggled more a few weeks ago, but right now, I think I'm okay, except that I basically get a panic attack whenever I think about the fact that we're really leaving the lds church and going somewhere else. I mean... my whole life has been basically centered around being lds. 

    BUT. I trust my parents enough to follow them, especially after the things we've talked about. Don't ask me what they are, because I'm not really supposed to talk about the reasons we're leaving. Just think about like this: You start researching washing your hands, because you're curious about it. And suddenly you learn that it doesn't do what everyone says it does. It washes off the dirt and grime but doesn't kill any germs. Or maybe you learn that it doesn't do anything at all!

    Bad analogy, but it was the only one I could think of. Or maybe  you find out one day that the sky was never blue and it's always been orange. 

    Anyway, I should probably shut my mouth. 

    Also, I'm exhausted of life. I'm not suicidal (though I've had thoughts), I'm just... really, really burnt out. Twelve weeks left till summer break. Eighty-four days. I can do this.

    I just wish there was a way I could stop the clock to breathe.

      And when ye shall receive these things, I would exhort you that ye would ask God, the Eternal Father, in the name of Christ, if these things are not true; and if ye shall ask with a sincere heart, and with real intent, having faith in Christ, he will manifest the truth of it unto you, by the power of the Holy Ghost.

      - Moroni 10:4

      I can't give you more, I don't know what you are going through.

      But God does, he knows exactly what you need, and he can give it to you. Just take the time to ask.
