Nothing really has been going on.
My first track meet was on Wednesday. I didn't do too well. I ran the 400 and came in last of three other girls. It was freezing and my muscles were really cramped up and I had never trained for that event, so it really sucked. Right after I ran though my whole body felt numb. I couldn't even tell it was cold, so my coach made me put on my jacket. It was a lot of fun, even though I missed running the 800. They never announced it!
I can't really tell if my tendonitis is getting better since my trainer (Jeff) has been gone all week. So I will figure out Monday how my ankles are doing.
Last night was the Young Women Broadcast, which was amazing, I might add. Then I went to the 930pm showing of 10,000 BC. It was an ok show, but it was really weird. It scared Emily a lot. I had to put my arm around her she was so scared, and I think she still wet her pants. It was funny she was so scared!
Well, that's about it!
Love you all tons,

AAAAAAWWWWWW!!!!!!
My ankle had been hurting a little bit when I would run before Spring Break so I thought I had just sprained it. Oh no, of course not! It was hurting more today when I was running so I went to Jeff (our trainer) and asked him if he could see anything that was wrong. Big surprise there was something wrong, I think not! It turns out I have tendonitis!!! I was so mad when I figured that out! Really the only thing I really can do is get new shoes so I did. I really do hope they work because the first track meet is on Wednesday, and I'm running 2 events (the 400 and 800).

This Past Week
This week nothing really has gone on. I had no school all week because of spring break.
I got a hair straightener for my birthday and my mom persuaded me to do this weird flipy-out thing with my hair. It looks pretty spastic when I do it.
I ended up helping Grandma clean her house on Monday for some money for Jazz Band Tour. That thing is making me mad; it feels like I'm begging for money. It's pathetic. I am really excited for it though; it's down in San Diego, California!!
On Thursday, I decided to go shopping with some of the craziest people I know. Michelle and Grandma (*gasp*). It was pretty crazy. We then went and had lunch dropped off Grandma, picked up a few stragglers, and headed to Smith and Edward's. We spent 2 hours there where I got the coolest belt buckle ever! Then we headed over to Cal Ranch and spent another hour there. I've got to tell you though it was loads of fun!!
I have found out though my parents don't love me. They got all of us kids chocolate Easter Bunnies and mine, of course, was bad. It was milk chocolate, but it was tan. It was pretty gross.
Well, I hope you all had a great Easter!
Love ya,

This Week
This week nothing exciting happened. All my Jazz Band stuff is over until my spring concert and Tour in San Diego, next month.
We have our first Track meet next Wednesday. I’m excited for it even though I'm positive I won't do very well.
The best thing of all is that I am 16!!! I woke up this morning at 7:10 to my brothers singing Happy Birthday to me! It was pretty funny!
Well, that's about it, hope you all have an amazing week!!
Love you all!

This Past.... While
Sorry I haven't posted for a while, I've been busy. Let's see...
On February 20th to the 22nd I had my school musical. I swear it was the dumbest thing ever; it was called the "Nifty Fifties." No one really knew their lines, so I was glad I was just playing the music with the Jazz Band. On one of the days though, the main guy had his phone go off while he was on stage. It was pretty funny.
Then on March 1st I had another festival, but this time it was at Weber State. We did pretty good again there too.
I also had a Band Concert on the 4th, which we did okay at. We did better at it then at Exhibition Night. Exhibition Night was on the 26th of February. I don't think... no I know that we haven't played that bad in front of a group. It was horrible. No one really felt it, so we sounded bad.
On that Wednesday, we had Jazz Band region up in Logan. We sucked!! We had played those songs better before and the last song sounded horrible! We were all off and we weren't together. The scoring goes as, 1 the highest and 5 at absolutely horrible. We got a 2 and 2-. You needed at least a 1 and 1- to make it to state, so we obviously didn't make it to state.
For Jazz Band, we had another thing to play at on Saturday, March 8. It was the Bonnie Lassie Review. We sounded bad at that too. I swear we can't sound good except for in our classroom.
That's all for Jazz Band. I did end up joining track and am planning on running the 800 (for those of you that don't know, its twice around the track).
With all that going on, I happened to receive a letter from Aspen Ridge. I have to go in for an interview on Saturday, 10 minutes before the first meeting. There were actual dates for interviews but they were they worst 2 days in my schedule, so I ended up calling and seeing if I could go another day. I sure do hope I get in though.
Well, that about sums up my last couple weeks.
Hope you all have fun!

BYU Jazz Festival
I had a BYU Jazz Festival yesterday (Saturday), so the Jazz Band played at it.
I'm pretty sure we did pretty good, because the judge didn't have much to say. It was a lot of fun. It was from noon to 11:00. It was funny though when I went to dinner the guitarist (James) came up to me and started complaining to me that he couldn't find a real Coke. And how he went up to one of the places at the food court type thingy and asked why they didn't sell anything with caffeine in it and how they started explaining that they were Mormon and couldn't drink it and how he thought it was really stupid. It was kind of a had to be there moment, the look on his face was really funny. Then after dinner we started making paper airplanes and trying to throw them up on a banister type thing that was over us, and ended up banning our drummer (Steven) from making paper airplanes. One of his hit our trombonist in the nose and cut it, and about killed this old man. And Steven, just so he won't get in trouble, turns to me and starts mouthing out words like we were having a conversation. So I look up to this kid (I was sitting down and he was standing) that looked like he was having a conversation with the wall, it was pretty freaky. So then, we went to a Jazz Concert (still at BYU) and had a prayer before it started, it was kind of weird. Normally, you don't have a prayer before a concert, but it was cool. The Saxophone player at the beginning was absolutely amazing! He could make those elephant noises on his saxophone!! It was so cool! That's about all that happened there, it was really cool though.
Hope you all have a great week!

Another Post
My parents did decide to come home, dang (just kidding, it's good to have them home). I have to show you all the cowgirl hat they got me that is absolutely amazing! Fred you would love it!!
Emily went to the Valentine's dance last night with a kid who she had been bragging about was the cutest kid alive. It was funny, when I saw him I thought she was crazy or up on drugs. There is no way I would ever think that kid is cute. EEWW!
I am doing ANOTHER fundraiser for Jazz Band tour. Man, I am so sick of those things. I am selling cookie dough and candles if any of you want some. It was crazy, some weird guy came and started telling how to talk to people. It was freaky, he kept going on and on about how we should ask people if they want to help us and not ask them if they want to buy the stuff we are trying to sell, for about an half and hour. Man, that guy would not be quiet.
Well, thats about it. I hope you all have fun!
