rsl game

My dad won tickets for the RSL game this past Wednesday! He won 4 tickets, so I took my best friend Steffani, and he and Emily joined us! It was pretty excited, I had never been before! They played the San Jose Earthquakes; Ethan assured me that RSL would win, but alas, they did not. They tied, 0-0. We still had tons of fun! Steff and I bought sweet RSL bracelets, which makes us feel cool!
Steff and I then had a slumber party! Well, she just slept over that night and we stayed up talking! Thursday morning, we went to help the GHS band...we're still marching cowboys at heart! We're such nerds! But we had a good time, and Mr. Nix (band teacher) assured us that if we helped the band during the summer, he would pay us, hoping to help us pay for college in some way! That's a nice perk!

funny moment at work

I have a funny moment to share! Ok, I was working at McDonald's yesterday, handing out in the drive-thru when a couple people were saying that there was a guy asleep in his car in the drive-thru lane. I said that I would go check it out once I had handed out this last order. At first, I thought it was our maintenance guy or something, but I went out to see what was going on. As I walked out the door, I saw a line of cars in the parking lot and I was worried that we were busy, but I looked to the front of this line and saw that there was this silver car just sitting there, with no cars in front of it. The people behind this car started to just go around him and carry on. So I finally got to the car and I saw that the guy (and his friend in the backseat, with a bag of Doritos) was totally asleep! At first I was scared that he was dead (yes, really), but I knocked on his window which woke him up. He looked very confused! The maintenance man was also out there and started laughing, as well as the other people in the drive-thru lane. It was quite funny, and I felt bad for the guy! I was also worried that he was in no condition to drive, but he made it through the line ok and did get his food. This is one memory I won't soon forget!

slow start to the summer

Well, I was hoping to get this post office job as soon as the summer started, but alas, I must wait 2 more weeks to even see if I get to train for the job. So McDonald's it is! But they love me there and I get paid well so it's not so bad. I'm just hoping that I can save enough money for college! But I'm really excited for school! I just wish it didn't cost anything...aw well! Because I have some extra free time, I've been able to clean my room (finally). It was a disaster before...But I gave a lot of stuff to DI, organized some papers, and vacuumed! :) My mother was greatly pleased! I'm hoping that I can keep this habit up; I guess we'll see. That's all for now, I suppose!

Graduation!!!

Well, here is my first blog post! This is exciting! :) Yesterday was my high school graduation!! It still hasn't sunk in that I'm now a GHS alumni...but I'm sure within the next few days, it will dawn on me. It's been a great week, though! My friends and I have partied our fair share! ha ha! We saw 'The Chronicles of Narnia' on Monday, and it was alright, although I was pretty lost because it's been years since I've read it! But it was still good. Then Tuesday was the Last Chance Dance/Luau, which was amazingly fun! We went ice blocking in Sugarhouse Park which was really fun! Then on Wednesday, a group of us seniors went to a lunch party and played tennis in Tooele, which I'm not very good at!
But last night was the best! We were going to have the graduation outside, but the weather was too unpredictable, so we moved it into the gym. It was pretty crowded but turned out well. As the Sr. Class Historian, I gave the history of the class! And as the Music Sterling Scholar, I played a flute solo; they both turned out well! After taking LOTS of pictures, our family and my friend Tommy's family ate at Wingers in Tooele. It was fun and really good! Then it was time for the Senior Lock-in at the bowling alley in Tooele. We bowled ALL night, but we had a great time!
Overall, this week has been AMAZING!! I hope that I can keep this blog going!
