I'm Trying to be....

I found this video of David Archuleta singing "I'm Trying To Be Like Jesus". It's one of my favorite primary hymns. I also really like David's voice. He is really good.

I love listening to the primary hymns. They are so simple but have some of the best messages. Sometimes, we forget the simple lessons that you learn at such a young age. When we forget, that's when we have doubts. I usually don't get very religious but I love my heavenly father and this gospel. I love this video.

A tough goodbye...

So....this weekend was the last performance of Musical Productions. It was one of the hardest things I have ever had to give up. Productions changes my life.

Productions is place where....

• Nobody judges you
• Everyone in the class is looking out for each other
• You find best friends
• You can be yourself
• You learn to face fears
• ...and you learn to let go

The hardest thing I learned to do in the class was how to say goodbye. I didn't realize how hard it was going to be....but I am so grateful for the experience. I got so much out of the class that I never thought I would get. The people in the class are some of the most talented, sweet people you will ever meet.

I'm going to miss early mornings with the best people.
I'm going to miss syd.
I'm going to miss Liz
I'm going to miss Chad
I'm going to miss MPSC
I'm going to miss Andra and Bonnie

I'm going to miss the class.

Thank you Musical Productions.

Holiday break.

I really need to learn to do this more often....
...anyway, here is what's been going on.


I went to the Christmas Dance for the first time ever with Maddy. It was perfect. I can't really think of a better word for it.

I had an excellent Christmas with my family. My brother and I were challenged by my aunt to a dance off in "Dance Central". It was a lot of fun and .....we won. :) My brother is really good at that kinda stuff and we spent a lot of time over the break dancing. It was nice to have him back for the break.

I had a marvelous new year's eve with my best friend in the world. I had a blast.

...I got to go ice skating and make a nasty pizza. That was fun too.....

You might think that pizza looks good....well, I have never made something so greasy in my life. When the knife was pressed  into the pizza,  I river of grease poured out. It was pretty gross.

So that's a pretty quick summary of my break.
When I got back to school, things began to complicate. First of all, the Musical Revue is now at a peak. We are constantly busy. That combined with One acts makes me pretty busy. It's nothing I can't handle but...ya know. With all that piled on me, I had a little conflict in English. It's kinda a long story so i'm going to shorten it. Basically what happend is my teacher started making racial jokes about me. At first it didn't bother me but pretty soon it started getting to me. I was the center of attention. The entire class was laughing along at me. I kept on thinking my teacher would stop but he kept going. I asked him to stop but he didn't. Now that I look back at it, I probably should have just walked out. I should have done something but I just sat there and let it happen. It was an awful situation. Luckily, I have people looking out for me.

I am so blessed with the people in my life. Maddy calmed me down right after it happened and has really helped me cheer up. My parents were very upset....probably more so than I was. I had to calm them down. I had a lot people who came to me and expressed how sorry they were that it happened. I'm very grateful for everyone that is watching out for me.

I'm not going to let this take me down. I'm proud of who I am.
