Nothing New Really

Nothing new really has gone on in my life. Yesterday we had a chior preformance in the valley. We had judges grade us. I thought that we did wonderful and I am very proud of what our chior has accomplished. I don't think we could have done any better. I am very glad that Christmas is coming up. We actually started a fire in the fireplace today! When we were coming home from church today it was actually hailing, one hit my head and it really hurt. I think that has to be a historic event for Casa Grande. Well, I guess that is it. Please comment!

Tagged... well not really!

I haven't been on blogs for like FOEVER! So I was just looking around and Sister Menghini had a tag for whoever wanted to do it, and since I am bored I think I will do it!

10 Things I Cannot Live Without

1. Well my first would have to be family. Even though they annoy me SO much I honestly think that I can say that I would be lost without them.

2. The Church. Who isn't going to say this!? It truly is amazing and I know that I could not live the way that I do if it wasn't for the support of my young women leaders and everyone in my church.

3. Friends, they are amazing. I have a special friend for everything! Just ask me what you are(:.

4. My dog. I guess he could go under family but I think he is worth his own number. I just love coming home after having a bad day and knowing that I can go straight to Leo. He is the best dog that you could ask for.

5. Clothes. I am so into clothes. I guess I get it from my mom who was a personal shopper and Nordstrom for many years but I cannot go out if I am not in presentable clothes and matching.

6. Books. I love books. I can read them so fast and no matter how small they are they take youi to another world for a period of time. I will find myself wanting to be the characters in the books.

7. Dancing, it's my passion. Although I haven't been in a class for serveral years I ofter just dance in my mom or just for fun. It's way amazing.

8. My phone. I know that any tipical teenager would say this but it's true, I love my phone. I have to have it with me at all times.

9. California. I could not live without California. Sometimes it's the only place that I ever fell at home, at the beach and with my family. I want to live there when I grow up.

10. Cameras. They are so amazing. You can capture any minutes in your life with the clikc of a button. And now you can just put them on your computer!

People I tag: Sister Golding, Kennedy, Katie, Shanci

Sorry this was so long! I hope that the people that I tagged do this!

Life is Hard

Life is hard. :) If you haven't already figured that out. Me and Marisa aren't ever going to be friends again and she said some pretty hurtful things to me. She thinks that she is so cool and always has to be the center of attention. It's so annoying. Actually, I never realized just how annoying she was until this incident. I am kind of glad in a way that we aren't friends anymore- friends don't say the things that she did.

Well right now I am sick, yay me. And my mom is out of town. So yes, life does stink. I can tell you first handed.

Update

So we are an vacation in Prescott. We rented a house with my grandparents and cousins. It is really pretty and huge. I really like it and I wish the vacation wasn't over yet. Some drama has been going to with me and a friend and I think I lost her which makes me mad, I thought we were bestest friends. I really wish I didn't have to end like this.

Concert and Game

Well this last week was so hectic. It was the last week to turn in papers and get grades up. It was ALSO our school choir concert. We sang 3 songs by ourselves and 3 songs with the High school and the 7th grade. I thought it was a very successful concert. I really enjoyed seeing the high schoolers play because next year I might be singing with them. 

The next thing I did was go to the game this weekend with Marisa. We ended up winning by 22 points, which was good because it was our homecoming game. Some guy from the other team got hurt and I felt sorry for them. I saw so many people at the game and it was a very fun experience. I want to go again next week and to all the other games!

Dilemma.

I am stuck with a desicion, who to like!? Sister Menghini gave a wonderful lesson about qualities in guys that I really appreciate. I believe that even now, even when I am 14, it is important to like guys that have good qualities within them.

So there are two guys, both pretty amazing. I don't know who to really like though so I was hoping for some advice. The first guy is funny, mormon, understanding, can relate, strong beliefs, good friends, cute(:, and all around good. The bad qualities though is he never texts me back and he kind of flirts alot.

The second guy is mormon, understanding, sweet, talks alot, athletic, stands up for what is right, handsome, and kind. His bad qualities is that I never really get to see him and, well, I don't know what else.

So I am kind of caught between the two. I am really confused. I know that it doesn't matter now but I really want to understand that who would make the better buy in the long run. Anyone want to help me at all!?

:)

I know, I know. It's been a week. I am getting pretty bad at this. You see, this is kind of like my journal (minus the personal stuff) and if I don't keep it up I am going to have nothing to read when I grow up. When I am finally completed with this blog I am going to print out all my posts and put them in a binder.

This week has flown by! I don't know why but I have been tired every morning, like really tired. I hope that next week is easier for me because school will be really bad if it isn't. These last couple of weeks have been horrible and I hope to start this coming week with a fresh slate.

Last night was my friend Maria's party and she had a Arbonne party where we got to try out all of their products. If you have never tried this company, you should! It's amazing. My mom use to sell it and we have the occasional item floating around that I find and I love it. Her party was alot of fun and it was a great idea. It was so sad though because Marisa is going out with this guy and Iguess her mom didn't know so I started talking about it and her mom was like...what?! It was so embarresing!

Well I have to go. My dad is taking me about to eat.

Friends

My friends are amazing. So I am just going to write a little bit about them.

Kennedy- Kennedy is my best friend. We do everything together. I don't think we could ever get tired of each other.

Lexie- Lexie is like my sister, literally. We fight all the time time like sisters but I love her so much.

Torie- Torie is my band buddy. We always sit next to each other and if Diego is sitting there we get mad... (:.

Marisa- Marisa is Marisa. She's just fun to be around and drama follows her everywhere.

Katie- Katie has my name so we think that is pretty funny. She is just fun to hangout with. I couldn't get tired of it.

Shanci- Shanci is quiet but once you get to know her she talks alot. I love hanging out with her!!! She is amazing.

Ben-

Lately....

Not much has happened. Today was early release and I went bowling with some friends. That was pretty fun, although I didn't do so hot. I've been really working hard on homework and I have had a lot of it. Mr. Weber for Language Arts just piles project after project and it is getting to be too much! I hope that soon he will get into the swing of things with the rest of us.

My mom's anniversery for her being on a mission was on Moday- 25 years if you can believe that. We celebrated by going to IHOP, we had a coupon, and recieved terrible service but the food was really good! I think my mom was very happy that we were celebrating something that special.

Other than that nothing has happened. I've been getting into a lot of drama which I don't like but there are points in life where it is unavoidible which really stinks because you want to have control of your life. It's hard to not be able to control what you say and do sometimes because it just comes out when you are mad. But that's life! I hope you responde and talk to me.

Well.....

Not much has been going on in my life unless you consider being overworked by your father something significant. Yes, that is basically what I have been doing and let me tell you it's not fun. There just hasn't been anything to post about! I hung out with Shanci at the movies on Saturday and then went to Marisa's to hang out. Later we also went to McDonald's to work on a project with Kennedy. That was fun. I have got to say that the new McDonalds is nice(:. I've been on overload with so many projects due! Well I guess that is life.

So much to talk about!

So today is my 14th Birthday!! YAY! I am officially a miamaid whether I like it or not. I am so excited to get to interact with a new group of girls for a while. : ).

Well for my party last weekend I took me and a couple of friends to the Pounte Hilton Resort and it was GORGEOUS! Seriously, there is no other way to put it. It's so big and there is a least 4 mini "hotels" each which have thier own pool and courtyard along with their waterpark called the Falls. I have to say it was the most beautiful thing you can ever see and if you ever get the chace to go, DO IT!

My brother's party was this weekend and he had a swimparty. It was fun because most of his friends are my friends and that's cool :). I think he had a good time and I am glad for that.

Can you believe that I am sick the weekend of my birthday?! I can't either. It kind stinks. Well, it's just a cold but a bad one at that. I actually had to miss my last Sunday as a Beehive which I was really looking forward too because I am going to miss it.

Well I think that is all I have to say for now :). I hope that I kept you reasonably entertained.

My Party at the Pointe Hilton (pictures)

School

Well school has started. I can't say that I enjoy it, some parts I do, but I was kinda getting bored with the sitting around the house all day thing. Here's what I think about my teachers:

Mrs. Sundust: I think she is really nice but she can get off subject. She will start talking about something and 15 minutes later you won't know how she got to that subject.
Ms. Seaman: I think she is really cool. I think she is great at what she does. She is wonderful at anything that is preforming arts.
Mr. Hindman: He is pretty funny but I don't like it when it is all quiet and he just starts yelling. He things that it is funny but I don't. Maybe I am just a stick in the mud.
Mr. Webber: He is really awesome. It is his first year teaching and you would never know. He is laid back and let's us do out own thing but still let's us know what is required.
Mr. Graham: He is awesome. He is so funny and he makes Social Studies really fun. He has to be my favorite teacher this year.
Mrs. Baker: Her class was a little boring last year but I love her teaching style. And she is ALOT better this year. I think she is so nice and lenient and she never really gets mad at all.

So that's what I think of my teachers. All in all I am glad that I got the teachers that I got!

Well...

I cannot believe that school is going to start. Where does the time go?

So this week has been rather long. First of all I have to mention, I GOT MY HAIRCUT! I really like it. I got major layers and bangs, which I love. I think it was time to go back to my old ways and it was more of of a relief than I thought it was going to be.

Well for mutual we had a pool party at my house. I really thought that it was fun. The hotdogs were fantasic which is hard for me to say since I really don't like them at all. I was glad that Mya and Ethan and Tyler came with their parents because they made the party even more fun. It was so funny watching them swim. I also went to 3rd wards mutual which we fixed the hymn books.

I had a really fun time spending the night at Shanci's house! We babysat at Sister Bradshaws and made a cake which Sister Winder helped with when I ruined the frosting. The next day we went shopping and I got some more clothes but with my money. It was a lot of fun hanging out with Shanci. I hope that I can do it again soon!

This Kid

Ok, so there is this kid that really likes me. I mean really. I don't like him and he eventually forced it out of me to tell him, I really didn't want to but he was like, "We are friends, and friends tell eachother they can trust." So I told him and he went on to make my feel bad by saying that I give the worse rejection.

It doesn't stop there. He went on to talk about my past personal life using the same excuse, "We are friends and friends tell each other," making me feel bad because I had just hurt him so I told him the answers to the questions he wanted to know.

Well I am really good friends with someone that he really doesn't like and I am trying to get him to forgive my friend. So I ask him if he is still mad, and what do you know, more personal questions. Well, this time I refuse to answer and talk about it with my friend and he said it was cool, I didn't have to worry. So I wasn't. Until the next day when he said that I didn't have to worry about him asking abou it anymore, Kennedy told him the answer. Once, later, he told me that he was just messing with me to see if I would tell him, I was MAD! And Kennedy eventually talked to him and he get the idea that I hated him and blah blah blah.

In the midst of all this I told him that I didn't know how the whole friend thing with him was working out with him because he hept using it against me. I said we needed to work that part out. Well I got home and had an email from him saying, "You know how you said we should be friends anymore? I think that is the best idea you have ever had!" Talk about shallow much?

So since many of you are married and have gone through something like this, advice?
