Caught up on Life


So it’s been a while.  Life has been really crazy, but now that I’m done with high school, I finally have time to write.  Wait, what’s that you said? That’s right; I’M DONE WITH HIGH SCHOOL! WOOT! Let me tell you how the past three months have been. and get caught up on my life. 
March: We had Sonous tour, which was the most AMAZING EXPERIENCE EVER.  We went to Seattle and Portland and sang at ACDA Northwest, which is kind of big deal.  It was one of the most fun, inspiring, exciting, truly amazing experiences ever.  Also practically all of my friends were there, so that made it extra awesome.  Especially ‘cause we got to see WICKED on BROADWAY. Yeah, be jealous.
         Then for spring break I spent a week in Coronado with my family.  We stayed in a time share that was just a block away from the beach, where we went almost every day.  Also, all of my mom’s side of the family lives in San Diego, so I got to see my grandma, my aunt and uncle and cousins, which was a lot of fun.  Between enjoying the sun, seeing my family, going to the beach, shopping, eating out, and just relaxing, it was a great Spring Break!

April:  Let’s see, there was my Senior Prom!  It was one amazing day, and certainly a night to remember.  I had the movie moment where I walked downstairs with my hair done in an elegant up-do, my makeup salon-done, and I wearing a gorgeous purple ball gown, and my date dressed in a tux, looks up at me, and doesn’t say a word, because the expression on his face said it all.  The dinner was great, and the dance was really fun, and pretty much everything that it was supposed to be. 
           Then in April there were also senior projects, which was less exciting.  But then after senior project was done, we had senior skip days!  One day my friends and I went out to breakfast for delicious French toast and then had A Very Potter Musical marathon, and it was epic!  Then the next day we all went and had lunch at a park, and enjoyed being out of school for the day.  Then I had a girl’s night sleepover at my house, and one of my friends put chocolate across her face for war paint, and craziness just ensued from there.   It was a super fun day. 

May: This is when all of the fun senior perks go on.  No one really does homework anymore and don’t bother coming to class on time, and teachers just have to accept it.  We’re seniors, and we can do whatever the heck we want.  Everyone is counting down the days.  I had my last choir concert, and it was a sad but happy moment at the same time.  I remember the end of year concerts from years before, and after the last song, everyone is crying and hugging and it was a special moment for the seniors.  This time it was my turn to cry, but for some reason, the tears didn’t come.  It didn’t really sink in that it was the last time I would sing on that stage. 
             Anyway, then life got really busy with the stress of AP tests and finals.  Then , I blinked, and school was over.  I’m now done with high school.  Let’s say that one more time with feeling.  I’M DONE WITH HIGH SCHOOL.  On the last day, we had our senior picnic at a park, and there was lots of food, bouncy houses, the playground, music, and lots of excitement and joy in the air.  Then later that day, all of my girl friends got together at my best friend Macey’s house, and we had a camp out in her backyard, which was seriously one of the most fun nights of my life.  I can’t wait for more adventures this summer with my friends.
