Running, Playing, and Working

In my last post, I neglected to mention that I've started running. Now, before you all go into shock at the thought of me exercising, I would like to explain. I've been running with my mom in the mornings of this week. We've been doing a run 2 minutes walk one minute thing. The reason I'm doing this at all is that I'm going to do cross country starting in a couple weeks.

Now you can go into shock.

It's a pretty ridiculous idea, I know, but I'm gonna do it anyway. I'm going to do it or die trying. (If I actually do die, please come to my funeral.)

Now, I'm going to tell you about things that are a little less painful in my life. So let's start with the cello. My small ensamble group, which doesn't have a name yet but will eventually, had it's second rehearsal yesterday. First off, I want to say, the guy who didn't come to the first rehearsal pretty much completes the group. We were already having fun before, but his character really just adds the final touch to make the group insane. I love it. Our music is gonna be pretty cool. We haven't chosen which pieces specifically we will be doing yet, but the options we have are fun. I'm excited.

I have a job interview today. It's for a baseball stadium. I'm super nervous. SUPER NERVOUS! I don't know if It's likely that I'll get the job because so many people apply. I just hope that I make the cut. I'll let you know how it goes.

That's all I have to say today, so TTFN!

Summer

Summer means different things to different people. What does summer mean to you? For me it means searching for a job, working on school, getting in shape (don't laugh, it's going to happen), juggling schedules of different camps and such, and seeing family. This summer has been insane. (Yes, I know it's only been a day.) Let's rewind a little bit. Older than me one graduated. HE GRADUATED! It makes me happy for him. He's going on to new adventures in his life. It makes me sad. This next school year will be the first of my school years that I have not had him around after school. The other thing that worries me is that makes me the oldest in the house. It's never a good thing. The oldest child in this house usually has the most conflicts with life. And the beginning of senior year also has lots of stress with applying for colleges and stuff. Don't worry, I might die, but I'll be fine. :) The night before graduation, Fat Suit and I went and did a photo shoot together. I did the make-up, and it wasn't all that great cuz it was so on the spot, but it ened up looking pretty cool. I'm in the process of editing them all. It's way fun, but way time consuming. My favorite so far is a picture of just my face, and I look like a demon. It's kinda freaky, but it's cool at the same time. Okay, moving on to the present. Yesterday was Memorial Day, as we all should know, so it meant hanging out with the fam. We went up to a park for a super extended family reunion. It was fun. There are some cousins who happen to be in town now, and they are super duper cute! As well as the cousins who live here who are moving soon. (Their little ones are super duper cute as well.) So the mom thinks it'd be a great idea to invite these families over for dinner. Then she invites the grandparents. Then other cousins from out of town are invited, and pretty soon, 31 people later, we are having a huge party at our house for dinner. It was pretty sweet. I neve would have had the courage to plan a party that big in a couple hours like she did. Go THE MOM! She's pretty awesome. And, that's all for today. Go summer.
