Recap of Jan. 30th

Wow having to wake up early for the second day in a row is really hard. Your so tired and yet you have to wake up and get out of bed. But i was glad i did. In the morning we had solo ensemble. Show Choir was first and we did alright. It wasn't fabulous. Which is to bad. We took the judges critique very well though and did what he asked. We got an excellent. Which is okay and not okay at the same time. Then shopping for a suit coat for mock. I got a really pretty one. If you can have a pretty suit coat. ha. But then back to solo ensemble for my solo. It was went amazing. I got a Superior to! That totally made my day. Then Morgan and Whitney came over to get ready for winterfest! So much funn! The dance was pretty fun to. Average i would say. But you gotta love it. Then sleep over at Rachel's. What a fun night. Sam and summer thank you for watching t.v. all night and then when i wake up in the middle of the night thank you for that. ha. Wow id say it was a magnificent day!

Mock!

Well..wow this year for mock trial has been crazy. Absolutely crazy. But funn in a way. So now that we got our new teams. We have been doing really well. Extremely good. We had our first round trial against Waseca. We pretty much blew them into dust. There were many things that we did so good at. We won that trial by 42. Then the second round trial was with Waseca again. Which we were very pumped about it. We had to wait till one to do our trial so we sat in a conference room and had some funn. We played catch phrase which is a blast. Watching them try to explain there word is very funny. But then we had our trail. It went very well. We crushed them again winning by 41 points. So.....were going to sections!!! We would have to lose by 80 points not to go to sections and i really believe we will win our third round trial. We are so very very pumped!!! Great job this year guys!

Oreo Balls :)

So last night me and Morgan decided to make Oreo balls. So we go out to Hy-Vee and get the stuff to make them and then head back to my house. We have been planning this for awhile now. They are super good! So now we start taking the cream out of the oreos and put the oreos in a bag. Then Morgan starts mixing things together while i crush the oreos. I was having a lot of funn and then i picked up the knife to break them up even more. Well that was a bad idea because i broke the bag.oops. oh well. So then i pour the oreos into the mixer. Then i was like good like Morgan. cause she has to mix it. After that was all down it was time to dig in. We had to roll them into balls. The feeling on your hands was gross!! It really felt like rubbing poop together.( not that i would no what that feels like.) Morgan quit and washed her hands so i had to finish. Then it was time to freeze them. Then this morning my mom dipped them in almond bark. And it turns out we made them a little to big. ha ha. oh well they are still so good!!

DaNcE!

Its my passion. Its my life. Dance. Its what helps me escape the normal world. That makes me forget all of my problems. I never want to stop. There are just times when you are moving your body, trying to keep up with the music. But the best times are when your body is moving you. Just flowing with the music. Its what i call dancing with your whole body not just movements you are doing. They have a purpose to fulfill. Such as happy, sad, angry, hurt, confused, excited. Just about anything you can think of. Dance is so much more than what people think it is. It takes skill and endurance and most of all passion. I'm never going to stop and i don't even think i have the power within to stop. It is something that i love!!

Winterfest?!

I'm on student council and we are so be hide right now with the planning. The two days we had off in the morning was not a good things for us. But then anyways this year I'm not really sure if i even want to go. I mean why go through all the hassle of getting a dress. Then having to go tanning and getting your hair done. Its also the same day as solo ensemble so who nos when we will get back. In a since i want to go and probably will. I guess I'm just not sure about the whole thing. It doesn't seem as funn where i no i could be having fun else where. But I'm going to go for Whitney because it might be the last school dance i can go with her to. Not unless i get asked to prom but that is highly unlikely. So we will see how the cookie crumbles.

GRR!!

I am using this blog to vent my feelings for the second round mock trial judge we had. Everything is just going wrong. My team is all there but the other team is short a lawyer. So we start and someone walks in. He does a direct then leaves!! Oh and they never even got to finish there opening. Then a girl on there team asks to use the bathroom during trial!! What is this team thinking? So trial goes on for a little bit longer and we object. The opposing council is trying to say her way out of it. We no what is the rule out of it but she clearly doesn't. So the judge goes are you talking about party-opponent? Well she trying to but doesn't no it and you just cant give it to her then!!! Its totally not fair. You cant give it to them. Then through out the trial he is giving advice..you cant do that. So finally the other lawyer comes back in from being who nos where and gives a cross. He is assuming things that have happened during trial! But he doesn't no. So then at the end its time for the critic. I love to hear what i have done wrong or need to improve on so i can get my things down for section play. But no the judge just sits there and yells at us. None of us no where this is coming from because he looked like he was sleeping the whole time. So he were sitting there while he is yelling and he tells me something that i cant say in my closing statement but i clearly can and i no that. It was the worst trial i have gone through. Then on top we lost and that is something that i will ponder forever.

KNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

KNN stands for something. Only some people might be able to figure it out. It means something or i should say someone special. Well ill tell you that it stands for Kelly Nicole Nelson. My best friend. She just recently received that title. This girl will listen to everything i have to say. And then actually tell me the truth on her opinion not just oh that's great. That's one thing i love about her. She will tell me as it is and that's good sometimes. The other thing i absolutely love about Kelly is that we can do anything together. Except maybe jump off a cliff because one of us would probably end up pushing the other off and not going together. She is up to doing just about anything. And shes not afraid to be or do anything stupid and i love that.We have some many good memories together already and I'm sure more to come!! There is so much more i could say about Kelly but words and letters can not express how much I LOVE HER!!

It's over

Our Christmas break has come to an end. I find it as mixed emotions. So many things happen over break. And i don't want to say goodbye to staying up late and sleeping in. The rest was much needed! But now its time to go back to school.... Even though i don't really want to, i want to see all the people i didn't get to see over break. Get some more social interaction. That would be nice!! Oh but what a good break it was i hope to have more good times in the future. :)

Everything and More!

I'm sure that everyone is writing about New Years. The fact this that we all think of it differently with each of our own experiences. New Years Eve was spent with friends for me. What good friends i have that are up to doing anything. Even if it means going out at one in the morning in the freezing cold to go sledding and just play in the snow. Its really a great feeling that your friends aren't afraid to have fun. Also when you all pile into your friends bed and just sit there for an hour and talk. These are the best times with your friends. What would we do without them. They made my New Years all that i could have asked for. :) Thanks girlies!!
