graduation.

so finally, after 12 years im done with public schooling. i've had senioritis since the seventh grade, and have been itching to graduate for years.



wooooot. i have to say, i wont miss davis high, except for a few things.

1. Advanced theater. this class changed my life.



2. School friends. the ones you know you'll never see again, but have a ton of inside jokes with and you know you couldnt survive that history class without them




3. Getting ready for dances and feeling pretty for a night.




The things i wont miss, are immature boys and ratty girls. On senior night, when the all night party was over, a few of the boys whom i loathe entirely, began to chant. you know those chants that go like... "lancers suck (clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)" or "Warm up the bus! (clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)" (yeah.. those chants were at our basketball games...) well, as we were leaving, a few of the chants went like this. "gotta delay my mission...(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)" or "I need to talk to my bishop...(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)(clap)" ...

i know right. whats sad, is i used to know these kids and was friends with them up until highschool arrived. im just sad that that is what highschool did to them... what i wont miss..

1. People making fun of the different kids at the school
2. The clicks with their names that they make people refer to them to.
3. Chants.
4. Dirty things you hear in the hallway
5. The 1400 hall jam where all the jocks sit on the steps so you cant get to your class
6. The fakeness of girls when they say "omgosh i havnt seen you forever! girl we need to hang out. call me forreal!" then they turn around and say mean things about you to their friends, about 3 feet away.
7. Hearing about the abortions that go on
8. Pulling all nighters because you procrastinate and feeling like shiz in the morning
9. Dirty looks from girls who hate you
10. Whispers and rumors
11. Parties where you walk in the room and you know that 'your click' wasnt invited
12. People bringing other people down to make themselves look cool.
13. Certain boys throwing snowballs at your car and trying to trip all the girls in the hall.

i dont hate highschool... okay well maybe a little. but im so glad its over, it just wasnt for me. i met some amazing people and made lifelong friendships, and thats the one thing that matters. i had teachers change my life... Andra Thonrne and Corbin Talley. All i know is that im done with highschool and ready to start my life, no matter how scary the future seems.

...

20 Years Ago
i wasnt even alive.

10 Years Ago
i was 8 years old. i know right. i was in Mrs. Perez's third grade class and definately was the teachers pet. i'd write poems and give them to mrs prerez, but i entitled them, "to the class", so really i just wanted her to read them out loud so all my other friends would be jealous of my poetry writing skills. and i was super fat.

5 Years Ago
i was thirteen. in the seventh grade i believe? yes i think so. i had just met my two best friends in jr high, brooke and christy, and was coming out of my shell. i was hott stuff in jr high, and had a boyfriend, whom now is referred to He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

1 Year Ago
i was seventeen, finishing up jr year. i had absolutely no love interests, and those were the days where all of my friends got along. now its a battle ground. and some of us arent on speaking terms anymore. sad. also that summer i had the best job of my life, a nurse's assistant at the hospital. i love people with alzhimers.

So far this Year
I've been in advanced theater, and got closer to my two new sisters, alexa and natalee falk. advanced theater has changed my life, and i've met so many people because of it. i've dated a few people here and there, but i must say this is the last time i'll ever date anyone younger than me. ever. i figured out where im going to college and starting off on a new road.

Yesterday
i was up late writing. oh and also, finishing the rest of harry potter six, my new obsession. i need to start book seven. yesterday i was really emotional and ate all the chocolate i could find in my house... i ran some pictures to this mans house for a macbeth poster we are getting a teacher, and then i sobbed about how theater is about to end.

This Year
i will start USU in august. also, i'll attend two of my very best friends weddings.

my last play

Today i did my last play with my advanced theater class. i started bawling right before i went on. so i looked like a pregnant smoker who was emotionally unstable. it was really hard. basically i'll blog about it later. thats all.

yay! she blogged.




This is my amazing theater teacher, Andra. (dont judge me because im a theater geek.) so basically, today... i skipped seminary because we had a sketchy sub and im not graduating anyway..so i hopped my way on over to andras room to chill out. we got a talkin about how she doesnt have a blog, so i helped her create one. To be quite honest, it was one of the funnier hour and a halves i've ever had in my life. she was quite excited about her new blogspace. when i helped her write her profile, she of course put it my words of wisdom: "im a hot mom with a killer personality" i made the comment that we sounded like 13 year old girls giggling and chatting about her blog, and her other students in the class probably thought we were acting like pre-teens as well..awkward? no. hilarious? yes. it was awesome. andra teaches advanced theater, the only class i dont want to end. it has completely changed my life and im quite sure i'll blog about it later. i cant think of it ending right now or i'll get all sentimental like. andra is by far my favorite teacher at davis. shes a wonderful teacher and a wonderful friend and i look up to her so much.. oh and she has ADORABLE kids.


im gonna miss her when i graduate.

tetherballs and fish.





so today during childcare, we took a little walk to the park. after telling the children not to pick up the rolly pollies, and to get off peoples lawns, we arrived at the playground. one of the little girls, jackie, went over to the tether balls and started playing. i played with her, and remembered how awesome i used to be. i hit it, and it accidentally hit her in the head. when i walked away, i looked back and saw her purposefully hitting herself in the head with the tether ball, and giggling at herself. when i went back, she told me to 'do a high one'. so i then proceeded to do an illegal bottle cap. yes, they are illegal in the game of tetherball. sure enough, it brought me back to the days of glenmoor elementary. i remember many times getting hit in the face, and running to the school nurse, Mrs. Dung, for ice (seriously.) when really it didnt even hurt that bad, it really just was a slap in the face and a hard hit to my 8 year old ego. i just wanted to ice bag to suck on because it was hot outside.




also, today i went fishing with my best friend alexa. she caught 6, and i caught 4. all of a sudden out of nowhere, come two attractive cowboys, when sure enough, i catch another one. as their horses are approaching, im reelin it in hard but am trying not to fall in. as they come by, they say, "we can wait.." and i stupidly say, "oh its ok dont worry about it." then they said.. "umm watch out.. your fish is tangled.." i look over, and my line is caught in a little bush, with my fish tangled up and banging its head on the sticks. embarassing, i know. even more embarassing though, was when a few fisherman asked me what bait i used, but i didnt hear them, so i just said. "we caught ten." then they repeated the question, which i didnt hear, and said, "rainbow." they looked at me awkwardly, and i said, "K have fun BYE!"

embarassing moments define my life.
