Sorry

Guys, I'm soooooooo sorry that I haven't been blogging lately. I've been really busy seeing as the wedding is like 18 days away. Things have been really crazy. Trojan women is going well and the Speech team is getting ready to plan Sweet Speeches which will be in early June. Not much blog-worthy has been going on however, I promise to post more as soon as I get the time.

And if any Madison kids are reading this post: Don't Stop Believing fully supports Hannah and Lorene for co-presidents. :)

Shoot: James

Here are the photos from a random little shoot with a good friend of mine James, who can be found blogging here.

This is just us hanging out outside while waiting for one of the Pirates of Penzance shows to start.

Hail Poetry

Recently, my life has been writing and preforming Poetry. Last Saturday for Speech and Debate I performed my Poetry for 4 judges and will find out where I placed in a few hours (though it wasn't in the top three). And just last night a few friends and I competed at our school's 8th annual Poetry Slam. I didn't make it very far, but it was still fun. And to me, it's not about winning, it's about enjoying what you love to do, which for me is performing Poetry.

Tuesday 10: 10 favorite Easter Moments

So I wasn't able to take many photos during Easter but I do have things to report (and I'm sorry for lack of photos on this post)

1) Spent the morning watching Mamma Mia alone in bed-- which is always fantastic!

2) Made an amazing Fruit Salad for the Easter Dinner

3) Danced and sung with my sisters and my mom while cooking all morning

4) played Risk with my sister before and after dinner

5) Had a huge dinner at like 1 pm -- so it was more like lunch, but still.

6) Broke down and had some peeps and chocolates! -- Peeps= like the best candy ever!!

7) took a four hour long nap --which made up for not sleeping on Saturday due to our district tournament

8)woke up at like 8:30 pm and had more food-- by this point i was hungry again

9) got to borrow Gilmore Girls season 4 from my sister! -- best show ever

10) fell asleep watching Gilmore girls.

well there are my Tuesday 10 this week.

and just to get it out there: Districts went... alright... we got 3rd place in our district (out of 4 schools) and we are going to be sending 2 people to State: Miles in Radio and Lexie in Student Congress. I'm proud of my team even though we didn't do too well. It was a fun day and I enjoyed just being with all my friends doing what I love to do. :)

Guest Post: James

So about a month ago my friend James asked to make a guest post for my blog to get some readers onto his blog and I have been so far behind on everything that I had forgotten all about it. So this is me posting it now:


check out his blog by clicking here to see a special post made for my awesome readers :)


His Post:


You see, I have two blogs. One is about movies, the other, about music. This blog is my music one and man, do I love. For the next 18 posts or so, I'll be delving into each and every genre of music I have on my iTunes and writing about my favorite songs of each genre. And I'm going in alphabetcial order. In this case, A-W. I'd highly encourage everyone to take a look at this blog and you might like what you read.

Trojan Women

So today the cast list was posted for the next play: The Trojan Women. I had auditioned with my friends as all my friends are theater people and I couldn't wait to know who i was casted as. Turns out i did pretty well in auditions because I was given the part of Cassandra, who is one of the leads in the play. This characters has a lot of monologues and is pretty depressed and upset during the play, but it seems like a fun part to play because in Our Town I had played the Stage Manager who didn't get to have any emotions and wasn't hard to play. This role seems fun because I'll actually get to make a character and act as someone who isn't remotely close to how i really am :) More to come.

This is Cassandra

Oh my, my my

Take a look down below to the left. Do you see what I see? I see 20 followers!!! forgive me for my teenage girl moment but: OMG!!! These last 2 months have been a great few months for the blog and I can't wait to seem my tiny creation grow even more. Thank you for everyone who follows and reads and helps to make my little blog grow. I love seeing it grow and I love reading the comments and Emails that I get from all you amazing people :) once again thanks :) and remember: Don't Stop Believing :) (yes, I know it was corny, but I had to)

Second Chances

Are worth it, right? If you don't let yourself give someone another chance, you never know how your future would have gone differently. I for one hate asking myself, "What If?" Because it makes me want to kick myself for not finding out when I had the chance.

So why do I feel like my friends who tell me not to give a second chance are right? They obviously have good intentions and want what's best for me. But I also feel like I have to figure out on my own, even if that may mean getting hurt again. I just have to know for sure.

This is crazily confusing!

Tuesday 10: 10 things I would have with me on a deserted Island

Today I am CO-HOSTING Tuesday 10 with an amazing girl and blogger named Lena over at mom2memphisandruby and the theme is 10 things I would need to have on a deserted Island. here we go:

1)My best friend Lillee-- I mean I'll need someone to tell all the gossip I hear from the monkeys too.

2)A computer and wifi-- to blog all the gossip as well

3)tools to build a cabin for us to live in and hide from the rain.

4)my journal-- because I never leave home without it

5)my Nikon P500-- my baby!!!!

6)sun glasses-- actually, my actual glasses turn into sunglasses when I'm outside, so I'd be okay.

7) a really cute guy who got ship-wrecked with us-- what can I say? Flirting is my favorite pass time.

8) Yarn-- maybe I'd actually find the time to crochet on the Island

9) A radio so I could dance like a crazy person to my favorite music without being seen and judged (And sense Lillee would be there too, she doesn't count sense she would be dancing along side me :) )

10)food and drink-- becasue water and coconuts would get old fast...

well, that's my Tuesday 10. what's yours? Link up and tell us!
