So I'm totally going to try to participate in National Blog Posting Month. Let's see if I can do all of November haha. My blog is at
[link] if anyone cares to check in on how my progress is going haha ^^
Also! So I went to the Sassyback Tour on Monday. It was amazing, absolutely amazing. I lost my voice though, and still can't sing my normal range or really talk, so it's kinda funny. Sing it Loud was actually really good, so that was fun. Got a cd from one of the members for $5, and he signed the cd, which the case was already dysfunctional...so apparently I'm lucky? Also got the singer to sign my school ID, since I had nothing else for him to sign. Also got one of the members of Forever the Sickest Kids to sign it too. They were all very very nice. I was at the meet and greet for Cobra, along with my friend Kayce. It was a lot of fun, they were all really nice. They signed my poetry book. It looks really cool now. The other bands were really good too. I bought a color-changing shirt so that's sweet. When Cobra came on, I was screaming just like everyone else haha. I sang along to every song as loud as I possibly could (hence the non-existant singing voice), and yet my friend Kayce was singing too...but she didn't lose her voice...*pout* so ya, dead tired the next day, but managed to make it to school in one piece and I survived the day, lucky didn't really do much that day haha.
Then last night I had a chance to go see Archbishop Desmond Tutu speak downtown at the Wells Fargo Theater. I had to drive down there, and take another kid with me, but that wasn't too bad. The tickets for us were free so that was amazing. We had a couple interesting conversations on our way downtown haha. The archbishop was amazing. He is such an inspirational speaker. He is so animated, plus he had us laughing at a bunch of parts. I'm not religious. I'm going to just say that right now. Yet, even though a lot of his speech was about us being a part of God's plan and we are his help, I still got a lot out of his speech, besides those things. I'm not going to become a Christian just because I heard his speech. But it made me realize how frustrated I got at drivers during traffic or who were just being bad drivers. I don't know their situations. I don't know what they are going through at that moment, or what they went through that day or week. They could be having the worst week ever, and I would never know. I should FORGIVE people. That is the message I received from him last night. I shall try to remember that as the days and weeks slowly progress to December, and eventually May (when I finally graduate!)
Also! I do believe I shall be going to the The Academy Is...concert this sunday which really makes me happy. I also desperately need to be studying for my AP Statistics test, which I really don't feel like doing, and will most likely do it tomorrow during study hall, which is really bad, but I'm just so ridiculously tired. I have a bit of a cold still, which has been exasperated by the concert, and then by the late night last night. I just got up from an hour and a half nap that I was planning on daydreaming through but instead fell into an exhausted sleep and didn't wake up til my mom pounded on the door, which totally scared the heck out of me. And I do believe that is enough of a post to last awhile....haha
