happy may!

Well, it's May and i have 10 days of school left and i graduate in 16! whooo-who! i'm so excited and really cannot wait! :)

Last weekend my friend invited me to go to Cali with her over the weekend it was lots of fun and relaxing! We decided since we weren't going to Prom, california would be pretty nice! we left Friday after school, and spent the weekend there and left monday around noon! It's just nice to sit on the beach and not have to worry about anything once in a while!


kristin and i




the flowers were gorgeous so i thought i'd snap a shot of one!

oh my suns...

Well, as almost all Arizonians know.. the Suns lost last night and are now done with the playoffs! I'm really sad actually... i have a crush on like the team in general, but especially on Nash and Bell. I don't know what it is about them two, because really Nash isn't that cute, but boy is he a great player! But Raja.... Dang! he is just HOT.. really! so now i'm sad because they aren't in the play-offs anymore and i don't know who to root for! :( so here is my little shout out to the Suns! Go get em' next year!

raja.. isn't he presh! nash... not as cute!

coming soon...

I really want to post a long post right now, but i just don't have the time! come this weekend, i'll post! i promise! i even get bored with seeing the same post everytime i get on mine, so i can't imagine how you guys feel! haha

choir tour 08!

well, i just recently returned from my last choir tour of my whole high school career! although, i'm not too sad! i just know many more fun memories will come! Still, it was lots of fun, we saw Phantom of the Opera Thursday night, had our choir festival on Friday morning, then the beach and boat party (which is a big boat that serves dinner and a dance party) Those are so much fun! Then Saturday we went to 6-flags! Which was a blast, it was crowded, but i loved it! i definitly want to go there again when it's not so crowded!

Karlee.. i was saving her from jumping off the balcony! (we felt like it was a top model photo shoot)

Room 421 on our way to Phantom!

Kristin and I. We always look better in black and white photos!


GOLIATH! the tallest rollercoaster in California! I loved it! It was a blast! (you go down on the right side! the steepest part)


the 6- flags group... great memories!


Now i'm just extremly busy with make-up work with the school i missed, getting ready for pops auditions, and being the mom while mom and dad are out of town! So back to my busy life!



p.s. i can officially say i graduate next month now! whooo-who!

the helping hands!

So lately in my Humanities class we have been studying classical music! It has made me realize how grateful i am for music and having it be a major part of my life! All the composers like Beethoven, Mozart, Handel, Bach, Vivaldi, Chopin, Berlioz, Schubert, ect. amaze me! Really how did Beethoven compose music as great as his just by the vibrations of the piano. It's Amazing! and so many of the composers getting sick and dying at young ages, think of what they could have composed if they didn't die so young! So this week has been a reflecting week of music and how i really do love it!

Most people don't get a chance to sing in a school choir with a directer as great as mine! I'm so glad i have had the chance to sing in Jaztecs this year! it has really made me love music more and branch out of my shell a bit! It probably wouldn't be that great of an experience if it weren't for my teacher! He truly loves what he does and it makes such a great difference in how he teaches! Way to go Greg! haha

Also, my progress with my knee is going great! My physical therapist are pretty impressed at how well i'm doing! But really what would i do without physical therapy? I would have had the surgery and been at ground zero and never gone up! I can see that my therapist find joy in helping people getting back to 100%. How awesome would it be to help someone for your job all day and watch them make progress daily? I'm really appreciative of my therapist and i was thinking today, when i'm all done with my therapy it will be sad to go! We have grown close since i've started going there back at the first of december! But i'm not fully done for a while, so i guess it wont come too soon. But by that time we will be even closer!

I guess what i'm really trying to say is i'm so grateful for the people who will take times out of there lives to lend you a "helping hand" that makes you become a better person!
